Groucho, didn't you realize that VPW secret alias was King of the Gypsies :unsure: :blink: <_<

Title is "All praise to you, my God this night". Will post another hymn on Friday.

O may my soul in you repose, and may sweet sleep mine eyelids close, sleep that shall me more vigorous make to serve my God when I awake!

stanza 2: Forgive me, Lord for your dear Son the ill that I this day have done;That with the world , my self and you Before I sleep, at peace may be. 3: Teach me to live, that I may dread the grave as little as my bed. Teach me to die, that so I may rise glorious at the dawning day.

Buchman prefered house/home meetings(can any one say twig) and oppossed Communism like the vicmeister, and eerily Buchman praised Hitler against Stalin, while Barth, Niebur brothers, and Bonhoffer oppossed Buchman for spinning Lutheranism into a strange pardigm"quasi-Christian". Odd how 3 out of the 4 Wierwille claimed taught him at Princeton Seminary(yet VPW ended up rejecting their theology). There is no record of Wierwille ever attending any lectures of Bonhoffer at Yale or elsewhere.

Next one is an evening hymn in Long meter; tune is Tallis Canon by Thomas Tallis(British, 1505-1585); Lyrics by Thomas Ken(Anglican priest, 1637-1711). xxxxxxxxfor all the blessings of the light. Oh keep me now, O King of kings, beneath your own almighty wings.

So Catherine Tate, eh? The Tardis is big enough, so maybe all of them, whoops the devil spirit of the the Vicmeister. Need Sam and Dean Winchester from Supernatural to exorcise that nasty demon. :unsure: :blink:

Can't decide which Doctor's costume to wear. Now will it be the long scarf, the cricketeer, the wool coat, or the combination stripes/plaid with polka dot tie, or the tuxedo/smoking jacket? and which companion(female), Susan, Barbara, Dodo, Vicky, Polly, Zoe, Liz Shaw, Jo, Sarah Jane, Leela, Romana(I or II), Nyssa, Tegan, Peri, Melannie, Ace, Rose, Martha, Donna, or Astrid? You do know I am on hiatus on BBC? Or should I do Dark Shadows this year? decisions, decisions.

Time is up. Title is God of Grace and God of Glory. Will next post on Saturday.

First quote was a dead give away. Going to let someone else post. Now returning to Hymns Forum/Thread.

Are you saying that Cornfield Vic(Build it and they will come) was from the Harry Potter books/movies? <_< :blink: :unsure:

Would it help if those six words found in every stanza were supplied? "Grant us wisdom, grant us courage". Remeber you have until 12 noon tommorrow(Thursday) to answer this.

Carol Burnett?

Omitting the 1st six words:#1. On your people pour your power; Crown your ancient Church's story; Bring its bud to glorious flower. xxxxxxxx For the facing of this hour.

stanza #4. Save us from weak resignation to the evils we deplore; Let the gift of your salvation Be our glory evermore......Serving you whom we adore." Will give until Thursday, Cynic, George, and Twinky a chance to guess this hymn. Metric index is 8787877(syllables per line).

Frank, I thought that saying"Well, I am still here" was from VPW during ROA when the lights went out.

You know kids, I love you because you are God's best. That's right! <_<. ps would you pass me that bottle of drambuie?Bleech/burp. :blink:

The stanza I posted was #3. #2. Lo! The hosts of evil surround us scorn the Christ, assail his ways! From the fears that long have bound us free our heatrs to faith and praise.(omit these 6 words in all 4 stanzas)For the living of these days.

Ruben Archer Torrey, John Nelson Darby, Cyrus Scofield, Arthur Lankin, and particularly Ethelbert Bullinger taught this heresy and the term "dispensional(administration-actually stewardship~ecumenical/economy/oikonemeo(?)). Therefore Gospel of Matthew(maidens, bride, and groom), despite the Gospels being written later than Paul's epistles, and Revelation was a contemporary commentary on Nero's murdering Christians and Jews. BTW, I don't believe in Christians being "beamed up"(Star Trek terminology)/evacuated/"Raptured/Gathered Together". In other words, expect a potential genocide of all Christians. In fact this has been the case for nearly 2000 years by Satan/AntiChrist.

Next hymn is by Harry Fosdick, tune by John Hughes(Cwm Rhondda). Cure your children's warring madness bend our pride to your control; shame our wanton selfish gladness, rich in things and poor in soul, -------,lest we miss your kingdom's goal.

Fight the Good Fight ? LBW used Grace Church,Gananoque by Graham George from Canada. Will post the next one tommorrow/Sunday.

Oops, Twinky. Noticed that you had posted a hymn. Any additional clues like author, compser, or name of the tune(melody/music)?

Maybe they meant the "Generation of Prevailing"(40 years right?)

Brushstroke, not to further derail this, but TWI teaches that Jesus is only a perfect human being (like Adam and Eve before the fall, then sin or rebellion is genetically transmitted into all other human beings who become spiritually perverted and corruptible).Therefore Jesus can not be God cloned into human flesh or even the original(perfection/holiness/purity) or else God taking human flesh and sin damns him, making him evil and no better than Satan/Lucifer, nor can Jesus be the archangel Michael nor the angel Gabriel(Arius and Appolanarius, nor sinful child of Joseph or even Mary(God creates both egg and sperm, overiding Mary's biological defenses), therefore Jesus may be tempted but can not sin(does not have free will), therefore He is not our Brother, but rather step-brother(we are the ones not truly human, but poor imitators of God's original plan). In other words, Jesus is a circus freak.

Twinky welcome!. You get to choose the next hymn. You may give middle stanzas, tune names, metrical indexes, author's name, composer's name but not the title as clues. Any hymnal and it's companion/commentary or Cyber Hymnal can be the reference/resource.
