Almighty God, thy word is cast

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 222 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Almighty God, thy word is cast Like seed upon the ground; Oh, let the dew of heaven descend, And shed its influence round. 2 Let not the foe of Christ and man This holy seed remove; May it take root in ev'ry heart, And grow in faith and love! 3 Let not this world's deceitful cares, Nor worldly wealth and joy, Nor scorching beam, nor stormy blast, The rising plant destroy. 4 Where'er the word of life is sown, A large increase bestow, That all who hear Thy message, Lord, Its saving power may know.

And shall we still be slaves

Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 22 hymnals Lyrics: 1 And shall we still be slaves, And in our fetters lie, When summon'd by a voice divine T'assert our liberty? 2 Did the great Saviour bleed, Our freedom to obtain? And shall we trample on His blood, And glory in our chain? 3 Shall we go on to sin, Because Thy grace abounds; Or crucify the Lord again, And open all His wounds? 4 Forbid it, mighty God! Nor let it e'er be said, That those for whom Thy Son has died, In vice are lost and dead. 5 The man that durst despise The law that Moses brought, Behold! how terribly he dies For his presumptuous fault. 6 But sorer vengeance falls On that rebellious race, Who hate to hear when Jesus calls, And dare resist His grace.

According to Thy gracious word

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 555 hymnals Lyrics: 1 According to Thy gracious word, In meek humility, This will I do, my dying Lord, I will remember Thee. 2 Thy body, broken for my sake, My bread from heaven shall be; Thy testamental cup I take, And thus remember Thee. 3 Gethsemane can I forget? Or there Thy conflict see, Thine agony and bloody sweat, And not remember Thee? 4 When to the cross I turn mine eyes, And rest on Calvary, O Lamb of God, my Sacrifice! I must remember Thee:-- 5 Remember Thee and all Thy pains, And all Thy love to me; Yea, while a breath, a pulse remains, Will I remember Thee. 6 And when these failing lips grow dumb, And mind and mem'ry flee, When Thou shalt in Thy Kingdom come, Jesus, remember me.

A mighty stronghold is our God

Meter: Irregular Appears in 11 hymnals Lyrics: 1 A mighty stronghold is our God, A sure defence and weapon; He helps us free from every need Which hath us now o'ertaken. The old angry foe Now means us deadly woe; Deep guile and great might Are his dread arms in fight,-- On earth is not his equal. 2 In our own strength can naught be done-- Our loss were soon effected; There fights for us the Proper One, By God himself elected. Ask you who frees us? It is Christ Jesus-- The Lord Sabaoth, There is no other God; He'll hold the field of battle. 3 And were the world with devils filled, All waiting to devour us; We'll still succeed, so God hath willed,-- They cannot overpower us: The Prince of this world To hell shall be hurled; He seeks to alarm, But shall do us no harm; The smallest Word can fell him. 4 The Word they still must let remain, And for that have no merit; For he is with us on the plain, By his good gifts and Spirit: Destroy they our life, Goods, fame, child and wife? Let all pass amain, They still no conquest gain, For ours is still the kingdom. Topics: Reformation Festival

A pilgrim and a stranger

Appears in 65 hymnals Lyrics: 1 A pilgrim and a stranger, I journey here below: Far distant is my country, The home to which I go. Here I must toil and travail, Oft weary and opprest, But there my God shall lead me To everlasting rest. 2 There still my thoughts are dwelling, 'Tis there I long to be; Come, Lord, and call thy servant To blessedness with Thee! Come, bid my toils be ended, Let all my wanderings cease; Call from the wayside lodging To the sweet home of peace! 3 There I shall dwell forever, No more a stranger guest, With all thy blood-bought children, In everlasting rest: The pilgrim toils forgotten, The pilgrim conflicts o'er, All earthly griefs behind us, Eternal joys before! Topics: Assurance; Blessedness future, anticipated; Christians their life and experience; Confidence in God; Consolation; Goodness of God a ground of trust; Resignation
