Based on Psalm 103Joachim Neander, 1680Trans. by Catherine Winkworth, 1863 Straslund Gesangbuch, 1665

Pra i se to the Lord , the Almighty

2. Praise to the Lord, who o’er all things so wondrously reigneth,

Shelters thee under His wings, yea, so gently sustaineth!+

Hast thou not seen how thy desires e’er have been

Granted in what He ordaineth?+

3. Praise to the Lord, who doth prosper+ thy work and defend thee!

Surely His goodness and mercy here daily attend thee;

Ponder anew+ what the Almighty can do, if with His love He befriend thee.

4. Praise to the Lord, who with marvelous wisdom hath made thee,

Decked+ thee with health, and with loving hand guided and stayed+ thee.

How oft in grief hath not He brought thee relief,

Spreading His wings to o’ershade thee!

5. Praise to the Lord! O let all that is in me adore Him!

All that hath life and breath, come now with praises before Him!

Let the amen sound from His people again; gladly fore’er we adore Him.

A Verse for My Heart

If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old is

passed away, behold, the new has come.—2 Corinthians 5:17

Prayer from My Heart

Father in Heaven, my heart is full of praise to You. Everything I want

is found in Your plan for my life. Help me to chose good friends.

Thank You for a hymn to keep my heart close to You all day long.

I want to be wise and praise You. Amen.

Fai res t Lord Jesus

Anonymous German hymn Schlesische Volkslieder, Leipzig, 1842Munster Gesanbuch, 1677Silesian folk song, Joseph A. Seiss, stanza 4

(Children on CD sing this an octave lower.)

25

2. Fair are the meadows, fairer still the woodlands,

Robed in the blooming garb+ of spring:

Jesus is fairer, Jesus is purer,

Who makes the woeful+ heart to sing.

3. Fair is the sunshine, fairer still the moonlight,

And all the twinkling, starry host:+

Jesus shines brighter, Jesus shines purer

Than all the angels heav’n can boast.

4. Beautiful Savior! Lord of the nations!

Son of God and Son of Man!

Glory and honor, praise, adoration,

Now and forevermore be Thine.


The secret things belong to the Lord our God, but the things that

are revealed belong to us and to our children forever,

that we may do all the words of this law.—Deuteronomy 29:29

A Prayer from My Heart

Fairest Lord Jesus, I cherish You and want to sing about You.

Thank You for the gift of music. No one can take away Your song

in my heart. I want to honor You and pass along Your love.

You will shine brighter than the stars forever and ever. Amen.

Fanny J. Crosby, 1875. William H. Doane, 1875

To God Be the Glor y

+

+

2. O perfect redemption,+ the purchase of blood!+

To ev’ry believer the promise of God; the vilest offender+ who truly believes,

That moment from Jesus a pardon+ receives.

Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, let the earth hear His voice!

Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, let the people rejoice!

O come to the Father thro’ Jesus the Son,

And give Him the glory, great things He has done!

3. Great things He has taught us, great things He has done,

And great our rejoicing through Jesus the Son;

But purer and higher and greater will be

Our wonder, our transport,+ when Jesus we see.

Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, let the earth hear His voice!

Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, let the people rejoice!

O come to the Father thro’ Jesus the Son,

And give Him the glory, great things He has done!


The LORD has done great things for us; we are glad.

—Psalm 126:3


Father in Heaven, You are the God of good gifts and great things.

No dream is impossible for You. Thank You for the good things You have

planned for my life. I want to smile and give You

all the glory for everything that You have done. Amen.

Trus t and Obey

John H. Sammis, 1887 Daniel B. Towner, 1887

2. Not a shadow can rise, not a cloud in the skies,

But His smile quickly drives it away; not a doubt or a fear, not a sigh nor a tear,

Can abide while we trust and obey. Trust and obey, for there’s no other way

To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.

3. Not a burden we bear, not a sorrow we share, but our toil+ He does richly repay;

Not a grief nor a loss, not a frown or a cross,

But is blessed if we trust and obey. Trust and obey, for there’s no other way


4. But we never can prove the delights of His love, until all on the altar we lay;

For the favor He shows, and the joy He bestows,+

Are for those who will trust and obey. Trust and obey, for there’s no other way


5. Then in fellowship sweet we will sit at His feet,

Or we’ll walk by His side in the way;

What He says we will do, where He sends we will go—

Never fear, only trust and obey. Trust and obey, for there’s no other way



How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth!—Psalm 119:103


Lord, thank You for Your words that taste good and keep me healthy and strong. They are more delicious than anything in the world.

I want to trust and obey You. Amen.

Wonder fu l Words o f L i f e

2. Christ, the blessed One, gives to all, wonderful words of life;

Sinner, list+ to the loving call, wonderful words of life.

All so freely given, wooing+ us to heaven:

Beautiful words, wonderful words, wonderful words of life;

Beautiful words, wonderful words, wonderful words of life.

3. Sweetly echo the gospel call, wonderful words of life;

Offer pardon+ and peace to all, wonderful words of life.

Jesus, only Savior, sanctify+ forever:

Beautiful words, wonderful words, wonderful words of life;

Beautiful words, wonderful words, wonderful words of life.


“If you abide in me, and my words abide in you,

ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.”—John 15:7


Father in Heaven, thank You for Your wonderful words.

They give me life and happiness. The more I know of the Bible,

the richer I am. I want to obey everything You say. I am the happiest kid

around because You have done wonderful things. Thank You. Amen.

Onward, Chr i s t ian So ld ie r s

Sabine Baring-Gould, 1865 Arthur S. Sullivan, 1871

51

2. At the sign of triumph Satan’s host+ will flee; on then, Christian soldiers,

On to victory! Hell’s foundations quiver+ at the shout of praise:

Children, lift your voices, loud your anthems+ raise. Onward, Christian soldiers,

Marching as to war, with the cross of Jesus going on before.

3. Like a mighty army moves the church of God;

Children, we are treading+ where the saints have trod;+ We are not divided,

All one body we, one in hope and doctrine,+ one in charity.+ Onward,

Christian soldiers, marching as to war, with the cross of Jesus going on before.

4. Crowns and thrones may perish, kingdoms rise and wane,+ but the church

Of Jesus constant will remain; gates of hell can never ’gainst that church prevail;+

We have Christ’s own promise, and that cannot fail. Onward, Christian

Soldiers, marching as to war, with the cross of Jesus going on before.

5. Onward, then, ye people, join our happy throng,+ blend with ours your

Voices in the triumph song; glory, laud,+ and honor unto Christ the King:

This through countless ages men and angels sing. Onward, Christian

Soldiers, marching as to war, with the cross of Jesus going on before.


Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might.

Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against

the schemes of the devil.—Ephesians 6:10, 11


Father in Heaven, You are the leader, and I am at Your command.

I know that the forces of evil will try to defeat me. Your Word is my

secret weapon. Thank You for giving me the strength I need. Amen.

2. While we walk the pilgrim pathway+ clouds will overspread the sky;

But when trav’ling days are over, not a shadow, not a sigh.

When we all get to heaven, what a day of rejoicing that will be!

When we all see Jesus, we’ll sing and shout the victory.

3. Let us then be true and faithful, trusting, serving every day;

Just one glimpse of Him in glory will the toils+ of life repay.



4. Onward to the prize before us! Soon His beauty we’ll behold;

Soon the pearly gates will open, we shall tread+ the streets of gold.




No eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God

has prepared for those who love him.—1 Corinthians 2:9


Lord Jesus, You are my reason to celebrate. I will keep singing,

even when things go wrong. Your joy gives me strength. Thank You

for preparing a home in heaven for Your friends. Help me

to share the good news and invite my friends to the party. Amen.

We’re March ing to Zion

Isaac Watts; Robert Lowry, refrain Robert Lowry

+

Zi- on,+ Zi- on;

Zi- on;

2. Let those refuse to sing who never knew our God,

But children of the heav’nly King, but children of the heav’nly King

May speak their joys abroad,+ may speak their joys abroad.

We’re marching to Zion, beautiful, beautiful Zion;

We’re marching upward to Zion, the beautiful city of God.

3. The hill of Zion yields a thousand sacred sweets+

Before we reach the heav’nly fields, before we reach the heav’nly fields

Or walk the golden streets, or walk the golden streets.



4. Then let our songs abound and every tear be dry;

We’re marching thro’ Immanuel’s ground,+ we’re marching thro’

Immanuel’s ground

To fairer worlds on high, to fairer worlds on high.




Let the children of Zion rejoice in their King! . . . Let the godly

exult in glory; let them sing for joy on their beds.—Psalm 149:2, 5


Father in Heaven, thank You for giving me strength and a smile when I

face tough times. Thank You for preparing a beautiful city where I can live

with You forever. Help me to live unselfishly and keep looking up. Amen.

L ike a Rive r Glor ious

Frances R. Havergal, 1874 James Mountain, 1876

Like a riv- er glorious is God s perfect peace, o- ver all vic- to- rious

in its bright increase; perfect, yet it flow- eth full- er ev- ry day,

perfect, yet it grow- eth deep- er all the way. Stayed upon Je- ho- vah,

hearts are fully blest, finding, as He promised, perfect peace and rest.

+

71

2. Hidden in the hollow of His blessed hand,

Never foe+ can follow, never traitor+ stand;

Not a surge+ of worry, not a shade of care,

Not a blast of hurry, touch the spirit there.

Stayed upon Jehovah, hearts are fully blest,

Finding as He promised, perfect peace and rest.

3. Ev’ry joy or trial falleth from above,

Traced upon our dial by the Son of Love.

We may trust Him fully, all for us to do;

They who trust Him wholly, find Him wholly true.

Stayed upon Jehovah, hearts are fully blest,

Finding as He promised, perfect peace and rest.


Seek the things that are above, where Christ is seated

at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things that are above,

not on things that are on earth.—Colossians 3:1b-2


Thank You, Lord, for the peace in heaven that flows down to earth.

Today help me think about things in heaven, where You are.

Let me bring Your joy to my family and my friends.

Please give me a heart like Yours. Amen.

2. Thy love divine hath led us in the past;

In this free land by Thee our lot is cast;+

Be Thou our Ruler, Guardian, Guide, and Stay;+

Thy Word our law, Thy path our chosen way.

3. From war’s alarms, from deadly pestilence,+

Be Thy strong arm our ever-sure defense;

Thy true religion in our hearts increase,

Thy bounteous+ goodness nourish us in peace.

4. Refresh Thy people on their toilsome+ way,

Lead us from night to never-ending day;

Fill all our lives with love and grace divine,

And glory, laud,+ and praise be ever Thine.


For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit

again to a yoke of slavery.—Galatians 5:1


God of our fathers, You give us life, and You give us liberty. Your good gifts

are for everyone to enjoy. Thank You for our nation. Help me to

be courageous and to be thankful for the freedom that You give. Amen.

2. All the world is God’s own field, fruit unto His praise to yield;

Wheat and tares+ together sown, unto joy or sorrow grown:

First the blade, and then the ear, then the full corn shall appear:

Lord of harvest, grant that we, wholesome grain and pure may be.

3. For the Lord our God shall come, and shall take His harvest home;

From His field shall in that day all offenses+ purge+ away;

Give His angels charge at last in the fire the tares to cast,

But the fruitful ears to store in His garner+ evermore.

4. Even so, Lord, quickly come to Thy final harvest home;

Gather Thou Thy people in, free from sorrow, free from sin;

There forever purified, in Thy presence to abide:

Come, with all Thine angels, come! Raise the glorious harvest home.


Every day I will bless you and praise your name forever and ever.

Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised,

and his greatness is unsearchable.—Psalm 145:2-3


Father in Heaven, thank You for all the provisions of life. Today I promise

to do Your work. Help me to finish difficult jobs with a grateful

heart. Then I will stand up and say the blessing of thanks. Amen.

2. My native country, thee, land of the noble+ free, thy name I love:

I love thy rocks and rills,+ thy woods and templed hills;+

My heart with rapture+ thrills like that above.

3. Let music swell the breeze, and ring from all the trees sweet freedom’s song:

Let mortal tongues awake, let all that breathe partake;

Let rocks their silence break, the sound prolong.

4. Our fathers’ God, to thee, Author of liberty,+ to Thee we sing:

Long may our land be bright with freedom’s holy light;

Protect us by Thy might, Great God, our King!


The Lord sits enthroned as king forever. May the Lord give strength

to his people! May the Lord bless his people with peace!—Psalm 29:10b-11


Father in Heaven, You are a great God. You give the gift of freedom.

Thank You for America, our land of liberty. Today help me to honor You

with my thoughts, my song, and love for my country. Amen.
