Here hangs a man discarded
Author: Brian Wren (b. 1936) Meter: 7.6.7.6 Appears in 7 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 139:11-12 Lyrics: 1 Here hangs a man discarded,
a scarecrow hoisted high,
a nonsense pointing nowhere
to all who hurry by.
2 Can such a clown of sorrows
still bring a useful word
when faith and love seem phantoms
and every hope absurd?
3 Yet here is help and comfort
for lives by comfort bound,
when drums of dazzling progress
give strangely hollow sound:
4 Life, emptied of all meaning,
drained out in bleak distress,
can share in broken silence
our deepest emptiness;
5 And love that freely entered
the pit of life's despair,
can name our hidden darkness
and suffer with us there.
6 Christ, in our darkness risen,
help all who long for light
to hold the hand of promise,
till faith receives its sight. Topics: Christ Incarnate Passion and Death; Christian Year Good Friday; Despair and Trouble; Longing Used With Tune: SHRUB END
Here hangs a man discarded
O God in Whom All Life Begins
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., 1944- Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 6 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 139:13-14 Lyrics: 1 O God in whom all life begins,
who births the seed to fruit,
bestow your blessing on our lives;
here let your love find root.
Bring forth in us the Spirit's gifts
of patience, joy, and peace;
deliver us from numbing fear,
and grant our faith increase.
2 Unite in mutual ministry
our minds and hands and hearts
that we may have the grace to seek
the power your peace imparts.
So let our varied gifts combine
to glorify your Name
that in all things by word and deed
we may your love proclaim.
3 Through tears and laughter, grief and joy,
enlarge our trust and care;
so bind us in community
that we may risk and dare.
Be with us when we gather here
to worship, sing, and pray,
then send us forth in power and faith
to live the words we say. Used With Tune: NOEL
