O God, Thou Faithful God (EN 814)

EN 814 O God, Thou Faithful God

Ps.31.23

Versi Version 1

1

O God, Thou faithful God,

Thou fountain ever flowing,

Without whom nothing is,

All perfect gifts bestowing,

Grant me a healthy frame,

And give me, Lord, within,

A conscience free from blame,

A soul unhurt by gain.

2

And grant me, Lord, to do,

With ready heart and willing,

Whate’er Thou shalt command,

My calling here fulfilling;

And do it when I ought,

With zeal and joyfulness,

And bless the work I’ve wrought,

For Thou must give success.

3

Oh, let me never speak

What bounds of truth exceedeth;

Grant that no idle word

From out my mouth proceedeth;

And then, when in my place

I must and ought to speak,

My words grant power and grace

Lest I offend the weak.

4

If dangers gather round,

Still keep me calm and fearless;

Help me to bear the cross

When life is dark and cheerless,

To overcome my foe

With words and actions kind;

When counsel I would know,

Good counsel let me find.

5

And let me with all men,

As far as in me lieth,

In peace and friendship live,

And if Thy gift supplieth

Great wealth and honor fair,

Then this refuse me not,

That naught be mingled there

Of goods unjustly got.

6

If Thou a longer life

Hast here on earth decreed me;

If Thou through many ills

To age at length wilt lead me,

Thy patience on me shed.

Avert all sin and shame

And crown my hoary head

With honor free from blame.

7

Let me depart this life

Confiding in my Savior;

Do Thou my soul receive

That it may live forever;

And let my body have

A quiet resting place

Within a Christian grave;

And let it sleep in peace.

8

And on that solemn day

When all the dead are waking,

Stretch o’er my grave Thy hand,

Thyself my slumbers breaking.

Then let me hear Thy voice,

Change Thou this earthly frame,

And bid me aye rejoice

With those who love Thy Name.
