Hymn 457
Sung by Kyndall Blum
REFRAIN
Cause me to hear Your lovingkindness in the morning;
Teach me to do Your will, O God.
Cause me to know the way where I should place my feet
To walk in the pathway of Your love.
Verse 1
Not in the storm, nor the earthquake, nor the wave;
You're not in the wind, nor the flame.
In the still of the evening, in the hush of the morning,
Call my name.
REFRAIN
Verse 2
Truth is my Rock; there is nothing I shall fear.
You still all my worry and woe.
And my heart's overflowing now; I rest where
Your quiet waters flow.
REFRAIN

HYMNS
Hymn #258
Oft to every man and nation
Comes the moment to decide,
In the strife of Truth with falsehood,
For the good or evil side.
A great cause, God's new Messiah,
Shows to each the bloom or blight,
So can choice be made by all men
Twixt the darkness and the light.
New occasions teach new duties,
Time makes ancient creeds uncouth;
They must upward still and onward
Who would keep abreast of Truth,
And serenely down the future
See the thought of men incline
To the side of perfect justice
And to God's supreme design.
Though the cause of evil prosper,
Yet 'tis Truth alone is strong;
Though her portion be the scaffold,
And upon the throne be wrong,
Yet that scaffold sways the future,
And behind the dim unknown
Standeth God within the shadow
Keeping watch above His own.
(Christian Science Hymnal, No. 258)
Hymn #581
There are none friendless, none afraid,
The saving Truth who know,
Their shining path leads from the shade,
And up to light they go.
Truth sets us free from thought of sin;
It heals all sorrow's blight.
Immortal joy is found therein,
And there shall be no night.
And O, may we, God's children true,
God's healing love make known,
And see by faith all things made new
When ruled by Love alone.
(Christian Science Hymnal, No. 581)
Hymn #504
I want to know the truth that Jesus taught us,
To taste the liberty his promise brought us.
In Life we see that fear and death are not found.
We know as Mind is knowing: We are God-crowned!
The master Christian gave us his pure teaching
And guided us in healing and in preaching.
Love's gospel casts out sin, and brings us healing,
Whereby we all are blessed by Truth's revealing.
Forever, we have Truth, as Jesus stated,
The Soul that gives the joy we've all awaited,
And Principle to guide our pathway upward,
The light and harmony that moves us forward.
(Christian Science Hymnal, No. 504)
