Blessed Feasts of Blessed Martyrs

Author: John M. Neale, 1818-1866 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 28 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Blessed feasts of blessed martyrs, Holy women, holy men, With our love and admiration, Greet we your return again. Worthy deeds are theirs, and wonders, Worthy of the name they bore; We, with joyful praise and singing, Honor them for evermore. 2 Faith prevailing, hope unfailing, Loving Christ with single heart, Thus they, glorious and victorious Bravely bore the martyr's part By contempt of ev'ry anguish, By unyielding battle done; Victors at the last, they triumph With the host of angels one. 3 Therefore, all that reign in glory, Strong and sure with Christ on high, Join to ours your supplication When before him we draw nigh, Praying that, this life completed, All its fleeting moments past, By his grace we may be worthy Of eternal bliss at last.

Where is Bread?

Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: "Where is bread?" the great crowd murmured-- Lyrics: “Where is bread?” the great crowd murmured— Thousands strong, yet all in need. “Where is bread?” your people wondered, Faced with such a crowd to feed. Who, Lord Jesus, could have guessed it? One small boy brought food to share. Taking what he gave, you blessed it; All were fed, with much to spare. Where is bread? We know their yearning; Every day, we wish for more. God, in time, we’re slowly learning: All we own can make us poor. Our possessions can possess us, Leaving hunger deep inside. Christ our Bread, come now and bless us; At your feast, we’re satisfied. “Where is bread?” the call is rising; Millions cry who must be fed. God, your answer seems surprising: “You, my Church, you give them bread.” Bread to fill each hungry spirit, Bread for hungry stomachs, too! Give us bread and help us share it. Richly blest, may we serve you. Topics: Eucharist/Lord's Supper; Jesus Christ; Justice Scripture: John 6:1-15 Used With Tune: IN BABILONE
