O God our hope – our Holy Lord
Of wisdom, power, and love
Whose judgment’s like a mighty sword
The Lord of Hosts above
O God our hope for each new day
Lord may we turn to you
For all of life, Lord let us pray
Our gaze set firm on you
– From a sermon on Isaiah 31
(To the tune of “O God Our Help In Ages Past”)
He is our sure foundation, our crown of glory
He is our satisfaction, our wreath of beauty
A rest for the weary, a peaceful repose
From our strivings, our wantings, our fears, and our foes
He’s our stone of salvation, our security
Though mere mortals will fail us, our Helper is He
He’s our source of wisdom, upon which we stand
Firm upon our foundation, held safe in His hand
– From a sermon on Isaiah 28
(To the tune “How Firm A Foundation”)
His righteous anger turned away
His comforts ever new
He is my strength and song always
I praise and trust in you
Consider all that He has done
Exalted is His name
Here in our midst – the Holy One!
His praise we now proclaim
– From a sermon on Isaiah 12
(To the tune of “O For A Thousand Tongues To Sing”)
The Lord of Hosts – he reigns as King
He topples human pride
We rest in Him under His wings
In Christ the crucified
– From a sermon on Isaiah 10:5-34
(To the tune of “O For A Thousand Tongues To Sing”)
Christ is risen! Here is a great song to help us celebrate:
This song is also a great prayer:
Praise God who will be lifted high
Praise Him whose presence will be nigh
Praise Him who will teach us His way
Who brings the latter, peaceful day
Come let us walk in the Lord’s light
Rest in his presence in the night
Put first the Lord, His Word obey
Walk in his peace and hope today
– From a sermon on Isaiah 2:1-5
Praise God who smelt away our dross
To Him who poured his grace on me
Praise Him who died upon the cross
To save, redeem, to set us free
– From a sermon on Isaiah 1:21-31
Here is a great song celebrating our great Redeemer!
