THANKFUL


HYMN FOR TODAY - Monday March 30

====================================
Give to me, Lord, a thankful heart 
And a discerning mind; 
Give, as I play the Christian’s part, 
The strength to finish what I start 
And act on what I find.



When, in the rush of days, my will 
Is habit bound and slow, 
Help me to keep in vision, still, 
What love and power and peace can fill 
A life that trusts in you.



By your divine and urgent claim, 
And by your human face, 
Kindle our sinking hearts to flame, 
And as you teach the world your name 
Let it become your place.

O KING OF GLORY DAVID'S SON


HYMN FOR TODAY - Sunday March 29
====================================

O King of Glory! David’s Son!
Our Sovereign and our Friend!
In Heav’n forever stands Thy throne,
Thy kingdom hath no end:
Oh now to all men, far and near,
Lord, make it known, we pray,
That as in Heav’n all creatures here
May know Thee and obey.


The Eastern sages gladly bring
Their tribute-gifts to Thee;
They witness that Thou art their King,
And humbly bow the knee;
To Thee the morning star doth lead,
To Thee th’inspirèd Word,
We hail Thee, Savior in our need,
We worship Thee, the Lord.

I LOVE TO HEAR THE STORY


HYMN FOR TODAY - Thursday March 26
====================================
I love to hear the story 
which angel voices tell, 
How once the King of glory 
came down on earth to dwell. 
I am both weak and sinful; 
but this I surely know, 
The Lord came down to save me, 
because He loved me so.


I’m glad my blessèd Savior 
was once a child like me, 
To show how pure and holy 
His little ones might be; 
And, if I try to follow 
His footsteps here below, 
He never will forget me, 
because He loves me so.

LET EVERY TONGUE THY GOODNESS SPEAK


Let every tongue thy goodness speak,
Thou sovereign Lord of all:
Thy strengthening hands uphold the weak,
And raise the poor that fall.


When sorrow bows the spirit down,
Or virtue lies distressed,
Beneath the proud oppressor's frown,
Thou giv'st the mourner rest.


The Lord supports our infant days,
And guides our giddy youth;
Holy and just are all thy ways,
And all thy words are truth.

JESUS STILL LEAD ON

 http://ehymnbook.org/CMMS/hymnSong.php?id=pd03998


Jesus, still lead on, 
till our rest be won, 
And, although the way be cheerless,
We will follow calm and fearless,
Guide us by Thy hand
to our fatherland.
