O Enter, Lord, Thy Temple

Author: Paul Gerhardt Hymnal: HOoS1926 #311 (1926) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 O enter, Lord, Thy temple, Be Thou my spirit's Guest, Who at my birth didst give me A second birth more blest. Though here to dwell Thou deignest, Thou in the Godhead, Lord, Forever equal reignest, Art equally adored. 2 O enter, let me know Thee, And feel Thy power within, The power that breaks our fetters, And rescues us from sin. That I may serve Thee truly, O wash and cleanse Thou me, And render honor duly With perfect heart to Thee. 3 'Tis Thou, O Spirit, teachest The soul to pray aright; Thy songs are sweetest music, Thy prayers have wondrous might. They pierce the highest heaven, Unheard they cannot fall, Till He His help hath given Who surely helpeth all. 4 The whole wide world, O Spirit, Upon Thy hands doth rest; Our wayward hearts Thou turnest As to Thee seemest best. As Thou hast done so often, Once more Thy power make known, Convert the wicked, soften To tears the heart of stone. 5 Our path in all things order According to Thy mind; And when this life is over, And all must be resigned, With calm and fearless spirit O grant us then to die, And after death inherit Eternal life on high. Amen. Topics: Worship Prayer and Praise; Fifth Sunday after Easter; Prayer of the Holy Spirit; Thanksgiving Languages: English Tune Title: MIG KLÄD I HELIG PRYDNAD

O Day of Rest and Gladness!

Author: Christopher Wordsworth Hymnal: HOoS1926 #312 (1926) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 O day of rest and gladness! O day of joy and light! O balm for care and sadness, Most beautiful and bright! On thee the high and lowly, Through ages joined in tune, Sing, holy, holy, holy, To God, the great Triune. 2 On thee, at the creation, The light first had its birth; On thee, for our salvation, Christ rose from depths of earth; On thee our Lord victorious, The Spirit sent from heav'n; And thus on thee, most glorious, A three-fold light was giv'n. 3 To-day on weary nations The heavenly manna falls; To holy convocations The silver trumpet calls, Where Gospel light is glowing With pure and radiant beams, And living water flowing With soul-refreshing streams. 5 New graces ever gaining From this our day of rest, We reach the rest remaining To spirits of the blest; To Holy Ghost be praises, To Father and to Son, The Church her voice upraises To Thee, blest Three in One. Amen. Topics: Worship Prayer and Praise; The Lord's Day; Lord's Day; Thanksgiving Languages: English Tune Title: LAUSANNE

Guardian of Pure Hearts, and Hearer

Author: Johan Olof Wallin Hymnal: HOoS1926 #313 (1926) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Guardian of pure hearts, and Hearer, Lord, of ev'ry faithful prayer, In Thy courts one day is dearer Than a thousand days elsewhere. Worn with earth's unrest, how sweet In Thy temple fair to meet! There to sing away each sorrow That from life and toil we borrow! 2 With the righteous oft it fareth Here as if his deeds were ill; Blight fair virtue's flow'rs impaireth, Weeds of vice do flourish still; Joy and fortune haste away, Friends with friends--how short their stay! Rachel still her children mourneth, And her soul from comfort turneth. 3 But when here devoutly soareth High the temple-anthem sweet, Grief grows calm, no plaint outpoureth, Hearts with holy rapture beat: Free from earthly clouds, the soul Presses toward a higher goal, Takes from hope the comfort given, Speaks e'en now the tongue of heaven. 4 O my soul, on wings ascending, Thou on Salem's mount shalt rest; There where cherub-harps are blending With the singing of the blest; Let thy note of praise and prayer To thy God precede thee there, While e'en yet a careworn mortal, Still without Thy Father's portal. 5 Christians, while on earth abiding, Let us ever praise and pray, Firmly in our God confiding, As our fathers in their day; Be the children's voices raised To the God their fathers praised. Let Thy bounty, failing never, Be on us and all forever. 6 Bless us, Father, and protect us, Be our souls' sure hiding-place, Let Thy wisdom still direct us, Light our darkness with Thy grace! Let Thy countenance on us shine, Fill us all with peace divine. Praise the Father, Son, and Spirit, Praise Him all that life inherit. Amen.

Unto the Lord of All Creation

Author: Arivd August Afzelius Hymnal: HOoS1926 #314 (1926) Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Unto the Lord of all creation Thy voice, my soul, in anthems raise. Let ev'ry heart a fit oblation Bring unto Him with songs of praise. O contemplate in humbleness The pow'r and riches of his grace. 2 In Him we live and have our being; And all the hosts of heav'n and earth The living God, all-wise, all-seeing, Thro' His own Spirit brought to birth. His holy Name, writ in His Word, Thro' all the universe is heard. 3 The Lord who laid the earth's foundation, And for the stars their course decreed, Whose hand hath ordered all creation, Provideth for our every need; For God is Love: the Father's care His smallest child shall duly share. 4 From out the gloom mine eye descrieth The Maker's footprints in the sky; the starry chorus testifieth To His eternal majesty; While on my path each tiny flower Proclaims His glory and His power. 5 Into Thy hand, O God Almighty, My weal and woe I will entrust; My need Thou seest who takest pity On every worm that crawls the dust. In pleasure's path or sorrow's way Be Thou my Guide, O Lord, I pray. 6 And when the morning star appeareth, Thy grace, Thy glory we proclaim; When falls the dew, and evening neareth, O Lord, we call upon Thy Name. Upon Thy mercy we rely, Father, Creator, God on high. Amen.

Lo, hosts of Cherubim And countless Seraphim Sing, Hosanna, Holy is God, almighty God, All-merciful and all-wise God! 2 God of light, exalted, holy! Thy tender care protects the lowly, Nor leaves Thy children to their fate. Gracious art Thou, God our Father, Thy chosen people Thou dost gather Within Thine arms compassionate.

Hear Thy ransomed children praying That we may do Thy will, ne'er straying Away from Thee, nor from Thy Word. Vouchsafe to us Thy love, Thy wisdom from above; Grant us, Father, That in its light we walk aright In holiness as in Thy sight. 4 Bless and keep, O Lord, Thy creatures, Reveal to us Thy gracious features, O turn to us Thy face with peace. Here our songs we humbly tender Till glorified our tongues shall render To Thee our praise without surcease, Where hosts of Cherubim And countless Seraphim Sing, Hosanna, Holy is God, almighty God, All-merciful and all-wise God!
