NOW THANK WE ALL OUR GOD
Verse 1
Now thank we all our God
With heart and hands and voices,
Who wondrous things hath done,
In whom this world rejoices
Who from our mother's arms,
Hath blessed us on our way
With countless gifts of love
And still is ours today
Amen!
Verse 2
O may this bounteous God
Through all our life be near us,
With ever joyful hearts,
And blessed peace to cheer us,
And keep us in his grace,
And guide us when perplexed,
And free us from all ill,
In this world and the next.
Verse 3
All praise and thanks to God
The Father now be given,
The Son, and him who reigns,
With them in highest heaven,
The one eternal God,
Whom earth and heaven adore;
For thus it was, is now,
And shall be evermore.
FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT
Verse 1
Fight the good fight with all thy might,
Christ is thy strength, and Christ thy right;
Lay hold on life and it shall be
Thy joy and crown eternally.
Verse 2
Run the straight race through God's good grace:
Lift up thine eyes, and seek His face;
Life with its way before us lies,
Christ is the path, and Christ the prize.
Verse 3
Cast care aside, upon thy guide,
Lean, and his mercy will provide;
Lean and the trusting soul shall prove
Christ is its Life, and Christ its love.
Verse 4
Faint not nor fear, his arms are near,
He changeth not, and thou art dear;
Only believe and thou shalt see
That Christ is all in all to thee.
