thou dost give peace, thy presence maketh right;
thou with thy favour all things dost enfold,
with thine all-kindness free from harm wilt hold.

that dost not fail nor leave the heart afraid:
to all that cry thou dost all help accord,
the angels' armour, and the saints' reward.

there is no truth save only in thy trust;
thou dost the mind from earthly dreams recall,
and bring, through Christ, to him for whom are all.

who art and shalt be worshipped evermore:
us whom thou madest, comfort with thy might,
and lead us to enjoy thy heavenly light. Topics: Pentecost Used With Tune: SONG 22 Text Sources: Amor Patris et Filii, 12th century

Amidst Us Our Beloved Stands
Author: Charles Haddon Spurgeon Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 28 hymnals Scripture: Acts 9:18 Lyrics: 1 Amidst us our Belovèd stands,
and bids us view his piercèd hands;
points to the wounded feet and side,
blest emblems of the Crucified.
2 When at his table sits the Lord,
what gen'rous food adorns his board;
when Jesus deigns his guests to meet,
the wine how rich, the bread how sweet!
3 If now, with eyes defiled and dim,
we see the signs, but see not him;
O may His love the scales displace,
and bid us see him face to face!
4 Thou glorious Bridegroom of our hearts,
thy present smile a heav’n imparts!
O lift the veil, if veil there be,
let ev'ry saint your glory see!

We sing for all the unsung saints
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr (b. 1944) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Acts 9:15 Lyrics: 1 We sing for all the unsung saints,
that countless, nameless throng,
who kept the faith and passed it on
with hope steadfast and strong,
through all the daily griefs and joys
no chronicles record,
forgetful of their lack of fame,
but mindful of their Lord.
2 Though uninscribed with date or place,
with title, rank, or name,
as living stones their stories join
to form a hallowed frame
around the mystery in their midst:
the Lamb once sacrificed,
the Love that wrested life from death,
the wounded, risen Christ.
3 So we take heart from unknown saints
bereft of earthly fame,
those faithful ones who have received
a more enduring name:
for they reveal true blessing comes
when we our pride efface
and offer back our lives to be
the vessels of God's grace. Topics: Communion of Saints; Discipleship; Jesus Names and images for; Self-offering; Saints Used With Tune: LADYWELL

Come, Celebrate the Call of God
Author: Brian Wren, 1936- Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Acts 9:1-18 Lyrics: 1 Come, celebrate the call of God
that wakens and renews,
and chooses from us, for our good,
the bringers of good news.
The Spirit's blessing all ordains
to show what God has done,
yet brings to focus and contains
the many in the one.
2 A chosen one today replies,
and fit and ready stands.
*Her calling now we recognize
with prayer and loving hands.
A servant leader, truthful friend,
we gladly will receive,
to stir and comfort, shake and mend,
be glad with us, and grieve.
3 Great Spirit, give *her word and breath
in Christ to live and speak,
and shield against the powers of death
the outcast and the weak,
*her flag of faith, above defeats,
in heaven's breeze unfurled,
as all her deepest gladness meets
the hunger of the world.
*for her, read him when appropriate
