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.

As Sons of the Day and Daughters of Light

Author: Christopher Idle Hymnal: TWC #704 (1990) Meter: 10.10.11.11 Lyrics: 1 As sons of the day and daughters of light, no longer we sleep like creatures of night, for Jesus has died that with him we may live; by all he has given we learn how to give. 2 One body in Christ, let all play their part: the lazy be warned, the timid take heart; let those who are hurt never pay back with wrong, but serve one another: together be strong! 3 Be constant in prayer, at all time rejoice, in all things give thanks--let God hear your voice! Alive to the Spirit, alert to the word, test all things, and hold to what pleases the Lord. 4 May God who first called, gave peace and made whole, preserve us from fault in body and soul; our Lord Jesus Christ keep us firm in his grace until at his coming we meet face to face.
