Oh, that the Lord Would Guide My Ways
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Lutheran Worship #392 (1982) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Love and Obedience Lyrics: 1 Oh, that the Lord would guide my ways
To keep his statutes still!
Oh, that my God would grant me grace
To know and do his will!
2 Order my footsteps by your Word
And make my heart sincere;
Let sin have no dominion, Lord,
But keep my conscience clear.
3 Assist my soul, too apt to stray,
A stricter watch to keep;
If ever I forget your way,
Restore your wand'ring sheep.
4 Make me to walk in your commands,
A most delightful road;
Nor let my head or heart or hands
Offend against my God. Languages: English Tune Title: EVAN
Oh, that the Lord Would Guide My Ways
Jesus! Oh, How Could It Be True
Author: Joseph Grigg, c. 1722-68; Benjamin Francis, 1734-99 Hymnal: Lutheran Worship #393 (1982) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Love and Obedience Lyrics: 1 Jesus! Oh, how could it be true,
A mortal man ashamed of you?
Ashamed of you, whom angels praise,
Whose glories shine through endless days?
2 Ashamed of Jesus? Sooner far
Let evening blush to own a star.
He sheds the beams of light divine
On this benighted soul of mine.
3 Ashamed of Jesus? Just as soon
Let midnight be ashamed of noon.
There's midnight in my soul till he,
Bright Morning Star, bids darkness flee.
4 Ashamed of Jesus, that dear friend
On whom my hopes of heav'n depend?
No; when I blush, be this my shame,
That I no more revere his name.
5 Ashamed of Jesus? Yes, I may
When I've no guilt to wash away,
No tear to wipe, no good to crave,
No fear to quell, no soul to save.
6 Till then--nor is my boasting vain--
Till then I boast a Savior slain;
And oh, may this my glory be,
That Christ is not ashamed of me! Languages: English Tune Title: FEDERAL STREET

more love to thee!
Hear thou the prayer I make
on bended knee;
this is my earnest plea:
more love, O Christ, to thee,
more love to thee,
more love to thee!
2 Once earthly joy I craved,
sought peace and rest;
now thee alone I seek,
give what is best;
this all my prayer shall be:
more love, O Christ, to thee,
more love to thee,
more love to thee!
3 Let sorrow do its work,
send grief and pain;
sweet are thy messengers,
sweet their refrain,
when they can sing with me:
more love, O Christ, to thee,
more love to thee,
more love to thee!
4 Then shall my latest breath
whisper thy praise;
this be the parting cry
my heart shall raise;
this still its prayer shall be:
more love, O Christ, to thee,
more love to thee,
more love to thee!

For all his children dear,
Such love the Lord bestows on them
Who worship Him in fear.
2 The Lord remembers we are dust,
And all our frailty knows;
Man's days are like the tender grass,
And as the flow'r he grows.
3 The flow'r is withered by the wind
That smites with blighting breath;
So man is quickly swept away
Before the blast of death.
4 Unchanging is the love of God,
From age to age the same,
Displayed to all who do His will
And reverence His Name.
5 Those who his gracious covenant keep
The Lord will ever bless;
Their children's children shall rejoice
To see His righteousness. Scripture: Psalm 103 Languages: English Tune Title: AVONDALE

2 I love thee because thou hast first loved me,
and purchased my pardon on Calvary's tree.
I love thee for wearing the thorns on thy brow;
if ever I loved thee, my Jesus, 'tis now.
3 I'll love thee in life, I will love thee in death;
and praise thee as long as thou lendest me breath;
and say, when the death-dew lies cold on my brow:
if ever I loved thee, my Jesus, 'tis now.
4 In mansions of glory and endless delight,
I'll ever adore thee in heaven so bright;
I'll sing with the glittering crown on my brow:
if ever I loved thee, my Jesus, 'tis now. Scripture: 2 Timothy 4:8 Languages: English Tune Title: CARITAS

I Love the Lord, the Fount of Life and Grace
Author: William Kuipers Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #116B (2018) Meter: 10.11.11.10 Topics: Affiliction; Christian Service; Church As the Lord's House; Consecration and Obedience; Death; Gratitude; Jerusalem; Love For God; Post-Communion; Vows Lyrics: 1 I love the Lord, the fount of life and grace;
he hears my voice, my cry and supplication,
inclines his ear, gives strength and consolation;
in life, in death, my heart will seek his face.
2 The cords of death held me in deep despair;
the pangs of hell, like waves by tempest driven,
rolled o'er my soul; by grief and sorrow driven,
I turned in my distress to God in prayer.
3 I cried, "Deliver thou my soul, O Lord!"
Jehovah heard; I pledge him my devotion.
The Lord is just, his grace, wide as the ocean;
in boundless mercy he fulfills his word.
4 The Lord preserves the meek most tenderly;
brought nigh to death, in him I found salvation.
Come, thou my soul, relieved from agitation,
turn to thy rest; the Lord has favored thee.
5 Thou, O Jehovah, in thy sovereign grace,
hast saved my soul from death and woe appalling,
dried all my tears, secured my feet from falling.
Lo, I shall live and walk before thy face.
6 I have believed, and therefore did I speak
when I was made to suffer tribulation;
I said in haste and bitter desperation:
"All men are false, 'tis nought but lies they speak."
7 What shall I render to Jehovah now
for all the riches of his consolation?
With joy I'll take the cup of his salvation,
and call upon his name with thankful vow.
8 Before his saints I'll pay my vows to God;
e'en in death's vale he keepeth me from evil;
how dear to God the dying of his people!
Praise him, ye saints, and sound his name abroad.
9 I am, O Lord, thy servant, bound yet free,
thy handmaid's son, whose shackles thou hast broken;
redeemed by grace, I'll render as a token
of gratitude my constant praise to thee.
10 Jerusalem! Within thy courts I'll praise
Jehovah's name, and with a spirit lowly
pay all my vows. O Zion, fair and holy,
come join with me and bless him all thy days!
Scripture: Psalm 116 Languages: English Tune Title: GENEVAN 116
I Love the Lord, the Fount of Life and Grace
O, love, how deep, how broad, how high
Author: Benjamin Webb Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #121 (1961) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christ, The Lord Jesus; Christ Deity of; Christ Life, Ministry and Obedience of; Christ Love and Grace of; Christ Only Mediator and Redeemer; Christ Substitute; Incarnation; Preparatory Service Lyrics: 1 O, love, how deep, how broad, how high,
How passing thought and fantasy,
That God, the Son of God, should take
Our mortal form for mortals' sake!
2 For us baptized, for us he bore
His holy fast, and hungered sore,
For us temptations sharp he knew,
For us the tempter overthrew.
3 For us to wicked men betrayed,
Scourged, mocked, in crown of thorns arrayed;
For us he bore the cross's death,
For us at length gave up his breath.
4 For us he rose from death again,
For us he went on high to reign,
For us he sent his Spirit here
To guide, to strengthen and to cheer.
5 All honor, laud, and glory be,
O Jesus, virgin-born, to thee;
Whom with the Father we adore,
And Holy Ghost, for evermore.
Amen. Scripture: Ephesians 3:17-19 Languages: English Tune Title: MELCOMBE
O, love, how deep, how broad, how high
Happy the heart where graces reign
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #333 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Obedience made easy by love Lyrics: 1 Happy the heart where graces reign,
Where love inspires the breast:
Love is the brightest of the train,
And strengthens all the rest.
2 Knowledge, alas! 'tis all in vain,
And all in vain our fear:
Our stubborn sins will fight and reign,
If love be absent there.
3 'Tis love that makes our cheerful feet
In swift obedience move:
The devils know, and tremble too;
But devils do not love.
4 This is the grace that lives and sings
When faith and hope shall cease;
'Tis this shall strike our joyful strings
In the sweet realms of bliss. Languages: English
Happy the heart where graces reign
