O God of Jacob, by whose hand

Author: Rev. Philip Doddridge Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #331 (1908) Topics: The Catechism Daily Duty Lyrics: 1 O God of Jacob, by whose hand Thy people still are fed; Who, thro' this weary pilgrimage, Hast all our Fathers led! 2 To Thee our humble vows we raise, To Thee address our prayer; And in Thy kind and faithful breast Deposit all our care. 3 Through each perplexing path of life Our wand'ring footsteps guide, Give us by day our daily bread, And raiment fit provide. 4 O spread Thy cov'ring wings around, Till all our wand'rings cease, And at our Father's loved abode Our souls arrive in peace! 5 To Thee, as to our cov'nant God, We'll our whole selves resign; And thankful own that all we are, And all we have is Thine.

My faith looks up to Thee

Author: Rev. Ray Palmer Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #492 (1908) Topics: The Catechism Faith Lyrics: 1 My faith looks up to thee, Thou Lamb of Calvary, Savior Divine: Now hear me while I pray, Take all my guilt away, O let me from this day Be wholly Thine! 2 May Thy rich grace impart strength to my fainting heart, My zeal inspire; As thou hast died for me, O may my love to Thee Pure, warm, and changeless be, A living fire. 3 While life’s dark maze I tread, And griefs around me spread, Be thou my guide; Bid darkness turn to day, Wipe sorrow’s tears away, Nor let me ever stray From Thee aside. 4 When ends life’s transient dream, When death’s cold, sullen stream Shall o’er me roll; Blest Savior, then, in love, Fear and distrust remove; O bear me safe above, A ransomed soul!

Alas! my God! my sins are great

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a236 (1895) Topics: The Catechism Repentance Lyrics: 1 Alas my God! my sins are great, My conscience doth upbraid me; And now I find that in my strait No man hath power to aid me. 2 And though I flee, in my despair, In some low spot to hide me, My griefs would still be with me there, Thy hand still hold and guide me. 3 Nay, Thee I seek!—I merit naught, Yet pity and restore me; Be not Thy wrath, just God, my lot, Thy Son hath suffered for me. 4 O curb my heart, forgive my guilt, Make Thou my patience firmer, For they must miss the good Thou wilt, Who at Thy chasting murmur. 5 Then deal with me as seems Thee best, Thy grace will help me bear it, If but at last I see Thy rest, And with my Savior share it.

He must give it, Hearing ears, and seeing eyes. 5 Jesus gives us pure affections, Wills to do what He requires: Makes us follow His directions, And what He commands, inspires. 6 All our prayers, and all our praises, Rightly offered in His name,— He that dictates them is Jesus; He that answers is the same.
