1 Lord for tomorrow and its needs
I do not pray;
Keep me, my God, from stain of sin
Just for today.
Help me to labor earnestly,
And duly pray;
Let me be kind in word and deed,
Father today.
2 Let me be slow to do my will,
Prompt to obey;
Help me to sacrifice myself,
Father, today.
Let me no wrong or idle word
Unthinking say;
Set Thou a seal up on my lips
Through all today.
3 Let me in season, Lord, be grave,
In season gay;
Let me be faithful to Thy grace,
Father, today.
Lord, for tomorrow and its needs
I do not pray;
Still keep me, guide me, love me, Lord,
Through each today.
1 Christ for the world we sing;
the world to Christ we bring
with loving zeal:
the poor and them that mourn,
the faint and overborne,
sin-sick and sorrow-worn,
for Christ doth heal.
2 Christ for the world we sing;
the world to Christ we bring
with fervent pray’r:
the wayward and the lost,
by restless passions tossed,
redeemed at countless cost
from dark despair.
3 Christ for the world we sing;
the world to Christ we bring
with one accord:
with us the work to share,
with us reproach to dare,
with us the cross to bear,
for Christ our Lord.
4 Christ for the world we sing;
the world to Christ we bring
with joyful song:
the newborn souls whose days,
reclaimed from error’s ways,
inspired with hope and praise,
to Christ belong.
1 Oh, for a thousand tongues to sing,
Blessed be the Name of the Lord!
The glories of my God and king!
Blessed be the Name of the Lord!
Refrain:
Blessed be the Name, blessed be the Name,
Blessed be the Name of the Lord!
Blessed be the Name, blessed be the Name,
Blessed be the Name of the Lord!
2 Jesus! the Name that charms our fears,
Blessed be the Name of the Lord!
‘Tis music in the sinner’s ears,
Blessed be the Name of the Lord! [Refrain]
3 He breaks the pow’r of canceled sin,
Blessed be the Name of the Lord!
His blood can make the foulest clean,
Blessed be the Name of the Lord! [Refrain]
4 I never shall forget that day,
Blessed be the Name of the Lord!
When Jesus washed my sins away,
Blessed be the Name of the Lord! [Refrain]
Amen & Hallelujah! I actually am familiar with the last two selections. Having the words here allows for a person to sing along. Yay! Thank you for the blessing! Personally I like it better when I see your hands as they are meant to be rather than upside down, but that’s being quite petty. I enjoy your playing any way I can get it! Keep up the great work!
Thank you dear Annette❣️ I wasn’t familiar with the first hymn either but I loved the lyrics which went beautifully with the theme, and on my first play-through I really liked the chord progressions as well. I also like to sing along so lately I’ve been trying to include lyrics! (No preferences are petty, anything that detracts is something that I like to address.) No words to convey my appreciation of your support!
