God, You Give Us Recreation

Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: God, you give us recreation, rest and play when work is through Lyrics: God, you give us recreation, rest and play when work is through, Game and sport and celebration, times that challenge and renew. In the days we spend together, in the feasts that we prepare, In the times of joy and laughter, may we know your loving care. Yet, O Lord, we see you crying for the ones who know no rest, For your children, hungry, dying, for the homeless and oppressed. May we, as your sons and daughters, share with open heart and hand, Till your justice flows like water to the poor throughout the land. Bless, O Christ, our gifts of caring, for we know without a doubt: Soup and bread are made for sharing, hands are made for reaching out. Even in our times of playing, may we keep the vision clear: Keep us serving, loving, praying, welcoming your kingdom here.

Jesus, You Once Called Disciples

Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Jesus, you once called disciples, choosing twelve to follow you Lyrics: Jesus, you once called disciples, choosing twelve to follow you: Simon (also known as Peter), Andrew and Bartholomew, Philip, Thomas, James, and Matthew, Simon, Thaddaeus, John, and James– Then there was the one called Judas. These were your disciples' names. Women, too, were your disciples, sitting, learning, at your feet. Mary knew your word was precious, even more than food to eat. Martha trusted in your power when her brother Laz'rus died. Women shared your journey, Lord, and stayed when you were crucified. Lord, so many heard and followed, like the woman at the well. Meeting you, the living water, she sought others she could tell. Like the boy with loaves and fishes, like Zacchaeus in the tree, Many gladly heard your message; many shared your ministry. Jesus, still you call your people, "Come and follow me today!" Some, like Paul, feel sudden wonder; some are brought up in your way. Lord, no matter how we meet you, by your Spirit, make us new. May we know your living presence; may we daily follow you. Topics: Call/Vocation; Jesus Christ Ministry Scripture: 2 Timothy 1:5 Used With Tune: IN BABILONE
