Sing of God Made Manifest

Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., (1944-) Hymnal: Common Praise (1998) #162 (1998) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Scripture: Mark 1:1-11 Lyrics: 1 Sing of God made manifest in a child robust and blest, to whose home in Bethlehem where a star had guided them, magi came and gifts unbound, signs mysterious and profound: myrrh and frankincense and gold grave and God and king foretold. 2 Sing of God made manifest when at Jordan John confessed, "I should be baptized by you, but your bidding I will do." Then from heaven a double sign -- dove-like Spirit, voice divine -- hailed the true Anointed One: "This is my beloved Son." 3 Sing of God made manifest when Christ came as wedding-guest and at Cana gave a sign, turning water into wine; further still was love revealed as he taught, forgave, and healed, bringing light and life to all who would listen to God's call. 4 Sing of God made manifest on the cloud-capped mountain's crest, where the law and prophets waned so that Christ alone remained: glimpse of glory, pledge of grace, given as Jesus set his face towards the waiting cross and grave, sign of hope that God would save.

Quitting all the sins you prized, yield your life to God's control. 2 "Bear the fruit repentance sows: lives of justice, truth, and love. Trust no other claim than those; set your heart on things above. Soon the Lord will come in power, burning clean the threshing floor: then will flames the chaff devour; wheat alone shall fill God's store." 3 With such preaching, stark and bold, John proclaimed salvation near, and his timeless warnings hold words of hope to all who hear. So we dare to journey on, led by faith through ways untrod, till we come at last like John to behold the Lamb of God.

Bless’d Be the God of Israel

Author: Michael A. Perry Hymnal: Voices Together #223 (2020) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Scripture: Mark 1:1-8 Lyrics: 1 Bless’d be the God of Israel, who comes to set us free, who visits and redeems us, and grants us liberty! The prophets spoke of mercy, of freedom and release, God shall fulfill the promise to bring our people peace. 2 Now from the house of David a child of grace is giv’n, a Savior comes among us to raise us up to heav’n. Before him goes the herald, forerunner in the way, the prophet of salvation, the harbinger of day. 3 On all by death imprisoned the sun begins to rise, the dawning of forgiveness upon the sinner’s eyes, to guide the feet of pilgrims along the paths of peace. Oh, bless our God and Savior with songs that never cease!
