Take Me to the Water
Christ Is the World's Redeemer
Author: Columba; Duncan MacGregor Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 14 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 12:1 Lyrics: 1 Christ is the world’s Redeemer,
the lover of the pure,
the fount of heav'nly wisdom,
our trust and hope secure,
the armor of his soldiers,
the Lord of earth and sky;
our health while we are living,
our life when we shall die.
2 Christ hath our host surrounded
with clouds of martyrs bright,
who wave their palms in triumph
and fire us for the fight.
This Christ the cross ascended
to save a world undone,
and, suff'ring for the sinful,
our full redemption won.
3 Down in the realms of darkness
he lay a captive bound,
but at the hour appointed
he rose, a victor crowned;
and now, to heav'n ascended
he sits upon the throne
in glorious dominion,
his Father's and his own.
4 Glory to God the Father,
the unbegotten One;
all honor be to Jesus,
his sole begotten Son;
and to the Holy Spirit,
the perfect Trinity:
let all the worlds give answer:
“Amen: so let it be!”

Since Our Great High Priest, Christ Jesus
Author: Christopher M. Idle Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Appears in 8 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 12:1-2 Lyrics: 1 Since our great high priest, Christ Jesus,
bears the name above all names,
reigning Son of God, surpassing
other titles, powers, and claims
since to heaven our Lord has passed,
let us hold our witness fast!
2 Since we have a priest who suffered,
knowing weakness, tears, and pain;
who, like us, was tried and tempted;
unlike us, without a stain
since he shared our lowly place,
let us boldly seek his grace!
3 Sacrifice and suffering over,
now he sits at God's right hand,
crowned with praise, no more an outcast,
his preeminence long planned;
such a great high priest we have,
strong to help, supreme to save!
4 Love's example, hope's attraction,
faith's beginning and its end,
pioneer of our salvation,
mighty advocate and friend:
Jesus, now in glory raised,
our ascended Lord, be praised!

They Did Not Build in Vain
Author: Alan Luff, 1928- Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 12:1-3 Lyrics: 1 They did not build in vain
who founded here a church
as witness to God's love
amid a world of pain,
for still, to those who wish to see,
this place proclaims God's mystery.
2 They built upon the rock
that is the risen Lord,
the one foundation laid
which stands each earthly shock;
that, Spirit filled, we here might raise,
as living temples, prayer and praise.
3 Those who have loved this place,
a cloud of witnesses,
surround and urge us on
as we now run our race,
and so we lay aside each sin
in our desire to strive and win.
4 Though the horizon's bend
conceals the way ahead,
the footprints on the road
show Christ waits at the end;
in him alone our faith shall stand
who waits for us at God's right hand.
5 Here is our meeting place,
where doubt finds grounds of faith,
where hurt finds healing love,
our penitence your grace;
where bridging time to eternity
is God the holy Trinity. Used With Tune: DARWALL'S 148th

Beneath the Cross of Jesus
Author: Elizabeth C. Clephane, 1830-1869 Meter: 7.6.8.6.8.6.8.6 Appears in 520 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 12:1-3 Lyrics: 1 Beneath the cross of Jesus
I long to take my stand,
the shadow of a mighty rock
within a weary land,
a home within the wilderness,
a rest upon the way,
from the burning of the noontide heat
and the burdens of the day.
2 Upon the cross of Jesus,
my eye at times can see
the very dying form of one
who suffered there for me.
And from my contrite heart, with tears,
two wonders I confess:
the wonder of his glorious love
and my unworthiness.
3 I take, O cross, your shadow
for my abiding place;
I ask no other sunshine
than the sunshine of his face;
content to let the world go by,
to know no gain nor loss,
my sinful self my only shame,
my glory all, the cross.
