That Satan may not harm us That forever we may sing: All that may please Thee best. All that may please Thee best. He may shield us with His mercy Oh, may He soon to every nation That heathendom may be o'erthrown And healing to the hearts may come May not His voice appal us May all our lamps be burning May open find the door! That weary ones in Thee may rest; The world may hold Her wealth and gold; Oh, may we keep and ponder in our mind Then may we hope, th' angelic hosts among, You may with us His glory share. Within my heart, that it may be How I a child of light may be, Draw it to Thee that it may be Sin and death may well be groaning, Satan now may well be moaning; I may cleave to Thee in faith, I with joy may see Thy face, May we praise Him there! May we praise Him there! Born that man no more may die; We may reign in gladness. You may his utmost pow'rs defy. He serves that I a lord may be; We Christians May Rejoice Today We Christians may Rejoice today, May I in heav'n Thy name adore! Whatever may betide us, Happy spirits, may we fly May we dwell with Thee above. We may sing aloud today. We may sing with angels there. Nor withholdest aught that may Brighter rays may shine, May ev'ry plan and undertaking And may this year to me be holy; That it for me in peace may close; So may I when my years are gone Wherein as Christians we may live So, most gracious Lord, may we So may we with willing feet So may we with holy joy, There forever may we sing May we, body, soul, and spirit, Thy reign may spread salvation That they may dwell in safety May we imitate Thee now That we like to Thee may be And may praise Thee, ever blest, Yet we may not remain; May from our hearts ascend; May the image cherish That I may not perish. Grant that I may trust in Thee Grant that I may willingly May I give Thee love for love! That I may in heav'n above Oh, may our grateful hearts adore The sinful child of man may live in gladness; Whate'er of earthly good this life may grant me, Jesus, may our hearts be burning May our eyes be ever turning My troubled soul may ever hide. When here I may no more abide. That like the sun it there may shine Here the troubled peace, may find. By grace I there may tarry. Here may view its nature rightly, Here its guilt may estimate. We may to the Savior cleave, Oh, may we ever praise Him May we this warning keep in mind! That we may worthily receive May to life restore thee. So may thy pow'r with us avail Wherever I may be; Wherever I may be; Till the Lamb of God may die. We may the work Thou dost impose Grant that we e'er may ponder Oh, may we who mercy need May we in our guilt and shame May our hearts to Thee incline, May we in Thy sorrows share, May we all Thy loved ones be, May we know that God is near: May we thirst Thy love to know; May Thy life and death supply How the lost may be restored, How we, too, may enter heav'n. That we all may sing for aye: And trouble ne'er may hinder That I may rise forevermore to be That leads to heav'n I may not stray, That I may never be misled Help me that I in peace may die. Proclaim the blest tidings that all may rejoice. That we may see aright May hear, so calm and plain, May raise the victor strain. May be pleasing to the end; That I may not fall again That we may live and sing to Thee. That we may be Forever free May walk the road to heaven!

As fire it may be glowing; May forsake Thee, We faithful witnesses may be May ever faithful prove to Thee That we may act the valiant part, That we may never quit the field, Give us Thyself that we may see Among mankind may His good will May we in glory see How man the blessed goal may reach. Tho' the eye of sinful man Thy glory may not see, We with the angels may bow and adore. Grant them Thy truth that they may be forgiven; May God root out all heresy May evermore sing praise to Thee. This world's prince may still That men Thy name may know. Oh, may this living water, May it endure each shock. That gladly we may walk Long grieved and resisted, may take His sad flight Here may the blind and hungry come Oh, may these heav'nly pages be And still new beauties may I see That thou and all thy house may rest; That God may so work in thee. But wish that his such good may be That as Thy children we may live, Oh, may Thy mercy never cease! That we may seek no other guide! We here may live and die, dear Lord; We to His open wounds may fly In faithful hearts may treasure; That fruits of faith may flourish. Then may Thy work in us begun Until we gladly may commend, That we may see our lost estate Jesus, may Thy Word of Life May I ever love and fear Thee That Thy Word may be my choice! May Thy words take root in me; May this gift from heav'n enrich me May we in faith its tidings learn May we in faith its truth confess May our warm desires be heeded! That by this Sacrament we may Thine may our offspring be. Oh, may Thy Spirit gently draw May virtue, piety, and truth We still may act the Christian's part, May prove by our behavior And day by day may run our race, Grant that this Sacrament may be A new life may my off'ring be. May ne'er about this Sacrament Oh, may I never fail May take heed how he prepareth; May I for mine possess Thee. May to Thy Table now draw nigh Our weak souls that they may flourish: May Thy body, Lord, born of Mary, May this feast thereof remind us! May God bestow on us His grace and favor That we may feed on Thee today; That each may be Thy welcomed guest Lord, may Thy body and Thy blood May now approach Thy heav'nly Board May see Thy Judgment take its toll! That sinners may salvation see Though death may threaten with disaster, May through Thy grace so work in me And I may cleave alone to Thee How I Thy love may know; I now may serve Thee free from fear! But grant that justified I may I may th' eternal brightness see That I may sing above Oh, may all this saying ponder In His arms that they may live-- Oh, may Thy love inspire my tongue! Who may abide Thy presence? Forth to the battle may they go May each a living temple be That we may see Thy glorious face With Thy saints I may inherit I always may confide, That I may stand secure That I from Thee no more may stray, That I may see Thy glorious face May the dear blood once shed for me That I from first to last may be May then forget it never! May their baptismal grace become Thine forever may we be We at His feet may fall! Oh, may my last, expiring breath And lives that death may die. Ashamed of Jesus? Yes, I may And oh, may this my glory be, Though the storms may gather, What to me may seem a treasure That I joyfully may sing: May dwell but Thy pure love alone! Oh, may Thy love possess me whole, O Jesus, nothing may I see, Oh, may Thy love my hope renew, And if I fall, soon may I hear That I may truly serve Thee, May live with Thee Who hast died that I may live; May ev'ry heart confess Thy name, Thee may our tongues forever bless, Thee may we love alone The world may hate but cannot fell me; Oh, may the grace that Thou hast given Oh, may His love, immortal flame, May ev'ry heart with rapture say, Oh, may the sweet, the blissful theme And may the music of Thy name Grant that this may still the measure I count all but lose that I Christ may obtain. Ev'ry sin may be forgiven Oh, may I then in Him be found, Its rage I may deride. Each Christian therefore may be glad And take may hope of bliss away. Seek Where Ye May to Find a Way Seek where ye may Seek whom ye may That we may from sin made free May I His mercy not forget! Help us that we may fervently May we, our wretchedness beholding, May live with Thee forever. With them numbered may we be With them numbered may we be With them numbered may we be Wherever I may be. May Thy rich grace impart Oh, may my love to Thee And may I have within That it may live forever; And then, whate'er may come, Grant that I only Thee may love And grant me grace that I may duly Grant that my ev'ry thought may be Teach me that I never may But may I thro' all my life That I my course may run. Henceforth may see More than My tongue may tell, I may praise eternally. That His gifts I may inherit. Wisdom always may be learning. That the devil may not grieve me; May We Thy Precepts, Lord, Fulfil May we Thy precepts, Lord, fulfil So may we join Thy name to bless, May seize me unawares In death's strong grasp may lie Unharmed by foes, do what they may, In spite of ills that threaten may, Oh, may we all hear when our Shepherd doth call Oh, that we the throng of the ransomed may swell, God grant that I may, of His infinite love, That He may give me strength That I may follow Thee That I may serve Thee here Oh, may Thy will be mine! Foes may hate and friends may shun me; Storms may howl, and clouds may gather, Man may trouble and distress me, Life with trials hard may press me, May glorify Thy lavish grace That I may die unfearing; That these mine eyes with joy may see, Good Shepherd, may I sing Thy praise Oh, may I come where strife and grief are ended, May work a work for Thee. May we, where help is needed, there And may Thy Holy Spirit move And that Thy foll'wers may be tried, Whate'er the gift may be; May we Thy bounties thus Though dim our faith may be: Right of which we may not rob Thee, Debt we may not choose but pay, Oh, may we ever with Thee live, That we may look to Thee in heaven That we may love Thee more-- Ye may o'ercome through Christ alone O God, to us may grace be giv'n I may my fierce Accuser face That we may live in godly peace, Oh, give us strength that we may stand That we may doubt not, but believe Oh, may Thy soldiers, faithful, true and bold, Here may we gain from heav'n And may that grace, once giv'n, Now we may gather with our King Praises to Him we there may bring, That we may herald His praises; Many in saving faith may come May follow them in holiness Grant that I may ever be That we may forevermore Ev'ry human tie may perish, In the furnace God may prove thee, Grant that they may remain That men may call upon Thy name. Each age its solemn task may claim but once; Forth may they go to tell all realms Thy grace. Inspired by Thee, may they count all but loss That we, Thy flock, may know And may we never lack So may they live to Thee alone, We may in hope our charge resign. O God, may they and we be Thine! Oh, may Thy pastors faithful be, Oh, may Thy people faithful be So may we when our work is done May proclaim Thy pow'r to save. May our zeal to help the heathen May God Bestow on Us His Grace May God bestow on us His grace, And may the brightness of His face That we His gracious work may know, May God, the Father, God the Son, May the morning chase the night May Thy lasting, wide dominions May Thy scepter That they may find the saving way! So they with us may evermore The bud may have a bitter taste, Grant that I may never Grant that I may ever He may to thee deny, May compass thee around, Tho' many storms may gather. Now I may know Both joy and woe, That we may meet before Thy throne To Thee may raise our hearts and eyes, That so with all our hearts we may Make a way That we may Face to face--May Thy grace Come when it may, He'll shield me, That I may long obey; I may a host defy; They best and safest may abide. I may of endless light partake. In Thy sole glory may unite. That these gifts may never fail. Lord, may we be Thine today; That we may be kept from sinning. May Thy fervent love destroy May arise, Thy summons hearing, May Thy will be done, I ask, Grant that it may well be done That Satan may not cause distress That we may praise Thee ever, May praise Thee, Lord, our Savior, That we may do Thy will, As best may show Thy praise. Oh, may Thy holy blood restore me, E'er in Thee may find its ending. Keep grief, if this may be, away; That we may do whate'er is right May all we do or think or say May He bless rest and rising, I may see it without fear. Oh, may no earthborn cloud arise In Thine arms may we repose Sweet slumbers may He send you The hours of dark may be. The hours of dark may be. The hours of dark may be. May evil fancies flee away before us; I, ere I sleep, at peace may be. Teach me to live that I may dread Teach me to die that so I may Oh, may my soul in Thee repose, And may sweet sleep mine eyelids close, I, ere I sleep, at peace may be. Teach me to live that I may dread Teach me to die so that I may Oh, may my soul on Thee repose And may sweet sleep mine eyelids close, Asleep though wearied eyes may be, That I may, with faith unshaken, Thee may our glory evermore May the morn in heav'n awake us, May the morn in heav'n awake us, Oh, may we ne'er with thankless heart Lord, may our lives with fruit divine With joy in endless life may reap. That all to Thee may joy afford May the tho't within us dwell! May we give Thee of our best May we, the angel-reaping o'er, Wholesome grain and pure may be. May well Thy love declare, May ev'ry mountain height, May ev'ry tongue Oh, may our native land Firm may she ever stand Here may Thy Gospel, pure and mild, That we may magnify May they Thy servants be They may be pastors true. May He adorn with precious peace May He our Portion be! May we cheerfully obey, May such a blissful refuge be! My sins may be in number, That I may ever live with Thee; There may live where it is living, Who Knows when Death May Overtake Me Thy peace may bless my dying day. Who knows when death may overtake me! May change for me ere close of day That always ready I may be May I, amid this turmoil riven, Then may death come today, tomorrow, Oh, may we ever praise Thee! Within the Book of Life, oh, may That I may see Thee face to face That I may see Thee and adore The bond that none may dare to break, That each may wake the other's zeal Their lives may own Thy guidance, That theirs may be the love which knows no ending, May none to them and heav'n be lost! Whatever his appointed work may be, In Thy bosom may they be; May they walk the narrow way! Glad thank-off'rings may they bring; May teach them to their heirs. That they may ne'er forget His works, That they in church and school may dwell Till she may behold His face. May be in very deed Thine own, May raise the topstone in its day. Here may the list'ning throng Till all who here may seek Thy face "May the story Grant that we Thy Word may cherish That all the earth Thy truth may know. That Gentiles all may see May the joy of Thy salvation May they love and may they praise Thee Send Thy grace that they may conquer No ear may hear His coming, May I hear Thee say to me, May mine eyelids close. May Thine angels spread Then may I arise Crowns and thrones may perish, May our souls in graces flourish |
