With Welcome Heart We Greet You, Lord
Author: Fred R. Anderson, 1941- Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Matthew 18:30 Lyrics: 1 With welcome heart we greet you, Lord,
the giver of this day.
For rest and safety through the night
receive our thanks we pray.
We venture forth into this day
upon the paths you set.
So use us in your service, Lord,
wherever need is met.
2 We gather in the name of Christ
to bless your holy name.
You touch us in our hops and fears
our triumph and our pain.
You give us power to be new,
removing our regret.
You send us forth to share good news
wherever need is met.
3 The orphaned child whose past is lost
to brokenness and pain.
The anxious young confused with choice
which offers loss or gain.
The eager student working hard,
yet caught in worry's net;
so use us, Lord, with each of these,
wherever need is met.
4 So shall we love and serve you, Lord,
Good Shepherd of our days.
And trust you on this path of life
to guide in faithful ways.
When threatened by the shade of death,
still we shall trust you yet,
to draw us wholly to yourself,
for there all need is met. Used With Tune: GALLANT

God, Give Me Time
Author: Shirley Erena Murray Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Matthew 18:21-22 First Line: God, give me time to learn the words Lyrics: 1 God, give me time to learn the words I find so hard to say:
the loving words, forgiving words that take the sting away.
God, give me calm to ride the storm when waves of anger rise,
a moment when I grasp a truth my lesser self denies.
2 God, give me time to deal with words that threaten and destroy:
the easy words of politics that kill creation’s joy;
the speeches that proliferate economies of greed;
the thieves of children’s heritage, the poison in the seed.
3 God, give me time to meet your Word, transforming as I go
my little world, my larger world, by all I do and know;
encountering in others’ faith the wisdom and the grace
that Jesus Christ was born to bring, and gave a human face. Topics: Anger; Conflict; Forgiveness; Humility; Peace Interpersonal; Reconciliation Used With Tune: SEACHRIST
