to whom our more than all we owe,
open the fountain from above,
and let it our full souls o’erflow.
3 So shall our lives thy power proclaim,
thy grace for every sinner free,
till all the world shall learn thy name,
shall all stretch out their hands to thee.
4 Open a door which earth and hell
may strive to shut, but strive in vain;
let thy word richly in us dwell,
and let our gracious fruit remain.

and fruit we every hour shall bear,
throughout the world thy gospel spread,
thy everlasting truth declare. Topics: Confidence; Evangelism; Grace; Mission/Sending; People of God; Truth; Witness; Word of God; Worship The Offering Used With Tune: DUKE STREET

Author: Mathias Claudius; Ernesto Barocio Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 10 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 13:1-23 Lyrics: 1 Aramos nuestros campos,
y luego el sembrador
en ellos la simiente
esparce con amor.
Mas es de Dios la mano
que ha hace germinar,
calor y lluvia dando
a todos por igual.

de cuanto existe es Él.
Su aroma da a las flores
y a las abejas miel.
Las aves alimenta,
de peces puebla el mar,
y da a las gentes todas
el cotidiano pan.
3 Mil gracias, Dios, te damos
por cuanto bien nos das:
la flores y los frutos,
salud, la vida y pan.
No hay con qué paguemos
lo que nos da tu amor,
más que nuestro sincero
y humilde corazón.

Beyond the Beauty and the Awe
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., b. 1944 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 13 Lyrics: 1 Beyond the beauty and the awe,
beyond the fear and dread,
we long, O God, to hear your word,
to taste your transformed bread.
2 Our lives feel torn between the world,
whose needs are grimly real,
and empty talk of peace and joy
with distant, vague appeal.
3 Oh, teach us how to hear your voice
despite the traffic’s din,
to keep the blasts of rancor out
and let your Spirit in.
4 In sound or silence, sight or smell,
may we some token find
that makes your living presence known
to body, soul, and mind.
5 Then help us live as Jesus taught,
as light and salt and yeast,
that others may be brought to share
your promise and your feast.
