Christian Worship Nature And Scripture Psalm 19. The heavens declare thy glory, Lord!In every star thy wisdom shines;But, when our eyes behold thy word,We read thy name in fairer lines.

Christian Worship The Soldier Of The Cross. Soldier, to the contest pressing,Onward, let thy watchword be;God upon thee pours his blessing;What though man derideth thee!

Christian Worship Joined To God’s People. People of the living God,I have sought the world around,Paths of sin and sorrow trod,Peace and comfort nowhere found. Now to you my spirit turns,-Turns, a fugitive unblest;Brethren, where your altar burns,O, receive me into rest. Lonely I no longer roam,Like the cloud, the wind, the wave;Where you dwell […]

Christian Worship The Righteous And The Wicked. How blest is he, who ne’er consentsBy ill advice to walk;Nor stands in sinners’ ways, nor sitsWhere men profanely talk: But makes the perfect law of GodHis business and delight;Devoutly reads therein by day,And meditates by night. Like some fair tree, which, fed by streams,With timely fruit does […]

Christian Worship Excellence Of Faith. Faith is the Christian’s propWhereon his sorrows lean;It is the substance of his hope,His proof of things unseen;It is the anchor of his soulWhen tempests rage and billows roll. Faith is the polar starThat guides the Christian’s way,Directs his wanderings from afarTo realms of endless day;It points the course where’er […]

Christian Worship Seeking God. O Thou, whose power o’er moving worlds presides,Whose voice created, and whose wisdom guides,On darkling man in pure effulgence shine,And cheer his clouded mind with light divine. ‘T is thine alone to calm the pious breastWith silent confidence and holy rest;From thee, great God, we spring, to thee we tend;Path, Motive, […]
