God is here! As we his people

Author: Fred Pratt Green (1903-2000) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #445 (2013) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 God is here! As we his people meet to offer praise and prayer, may we find in fuller measure what it is in Christ we share. Here, as in the world around us, all our varied skills and arts wait the coming of his Spirit into open minds and hearts. 2 Here are symbols to remind us of our lifelong need of grace; here are table, font and pulpit; here the cross has central place. Here in honesty of preaching, here in silence, as in speech, here, in newness and renewal, God the Spirit comes to each. 3 Here our children find a welcome in the Shepherd's flock and fold, here, as bread and wine are taken, Christ sustains us as of old. Here the servants of the Servant seek in worship to explore what it means in daily living to believe and to adore. 4 Lord of all, of Church and Kingdom, in an age of change and doubt, keep us faithful to the gospel, help us work your purpose out. Here, in this day's dedication, all we have to give, receive: we, who cannot live without you, we adore you! We believe!

Lord, her watch Thy Church is keeping

Author: Henry Downton Hymnal: The Hymnal #481 (1916) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: Lord, her watch thy Church is keeping: When shall earth thy rule obey? When shall end the night of weeping? When shall break the promised day? See the whitening harvest languish, Waiting still the labourers' toil; Was it vain, thy Son's deep anguish? Shall the Strong retain the spoil? Tidings, sent to every creature, Millions yet have never heard: Can they hear without a preacher? Lord almighty, give the word! Give the word! in every nation Let the Gospel trumpet sound, Witnessing a world's salvation, To the earth's remotest bound. Then the end! Thy Church completed, All thy chosen gathered in, With their King in glory seated, Satan bound, and banished sin; Gone for ever parting, weeping, Hunger, sorrow, death, and pain; Lo! her watch thy Church is keeping; Come, Lord Jesus, come to reign! Amen. Topics: Missions Languages: English Tune Title: EVERTON

Son of God, eternal Saviour

Author: Somerset Lowry, 1855-1932 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #498 (1986) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Son of God, eternal Saviour, Source of life and truth and grace, Son of Man, whose birth among us Hallows all our human race, Thou, our Head, who, throned in glory, For thine own dost ever plead, Fill us with thy love and pity, Heal our wrongs, and help our need. 2 As thou, Lord, hast lived for others, So may we for others live; Freely have thy gifts been granted, Freely may thy servants give. Thine the gold and thine the silver, Thine the wealth of land and sea, We but stewards of thy bounty, Held in solemn trust for thee. 3 Come, O Christ, and reign among us, King of love, and Prince of peace, Hush the storm of strife and passion, Bid its cruel discords cease; By thy patient years of toiling, By thy silent hours of pain, Quench our fevered thirst of pleasure, shame our selfish greed of gain. 4 *Dark the path that lies behind us, Strewn with wrecks and stained with blood; But before us gleams the vision Of the coming brotherhood. See the Christlike host advancing, High and lowly, great and small, Linked in bonds of common service For the common Lord of all. 5 Son of God, eternal Saviour, Source of life and truth and grace, Son of Man, whose birth among us Hallows all our human race. Thou who prayedst, thou who willest That thy people should be one, Grant, O grant our hope's fruition: Here on earth thy will be done.
