Above the voices of the world around me
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith (b. 1926) Meter: 11.10.11.10 D Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Luke 9:59-62 Lyrics: 1 Above the voices of the world around me,
my hopes and dreams, my cares and loves and fears,
the long-awaited call of Christ has found me,
the voice of Jesus echoes in my ears:
'I gave my life to break the cords that bind you,
I rose from death to set your spirit free;
tum from your sins and put the past behind you,
take up your cross and come and follow me.'
2 What can I offer him who calls me to him?
Only the wastes of sin and self and shame;
a mind confused, a heart that never knew him,
a tongue unskilled at naming Jesus' name.
Yet at your call, and hungry for your blessing,
drawn by that cross which moves a heart of stone,
now Lord I come, my tale of sin confessing,
and in repentance turn to you alone.
3 Lord, I believe; help now my unbelieving;
I come in faith because your promise stands.
Your word of pardon and of peace receiving,
all that I am I place within your hands.
Let me become what you shall choose to make me,
freed from the guilt and burden of my sins.
Jesus is mine, who never shall forsake me,
and in his love my new-born life begins. Topics: Belief; Discipleship; Faith; Forgiveness; God Promises of; Lent; Other Saints and Festivals Andrew the Apostle; Penitence; Self-offering; Sin; Temptation; The Third Sunday of Lent Year A; Vocation Used With Tune: ASTON ROWANT

Count Well the Cost
Author: Alexander Mack Sr.; Ora W. Graber Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Luke 9:57-62 First Line: “Count well the cost,” Christ Jesus says Lyrics: 1 “Count well the cost,” Christ Jesus says,
“when you lay the foundation.”
Are you resolved, though all seem lost,
to risk your reputation,
your self, your wealth, for Christ the Lord,
as you now give your solemn word?
2 Into Christ’s death be buried now
through baptism’s joyous union.
No selfish claim should you allow
if you desire communion
when Christ’s redeemed together meet,
the bread of fellowship to eat.
3 Within the church’s warm embrace
the child of God is molded.
God’s Spirit lights the infant face,
and in God’s grace is folded.
With childlike steps, Christ’s plan we trace,
till we grow up in godly grace.
4 In Christian growth we are matured,
of fruitful vines a token.
That this good growth may be assured
ofttimes to us is broken
the bread of fellowship replete
when Christ’s redeemed together meet.

A Fox Has a Den
Author: Mary Nelson Keithahn Meter: 5.5.5.5 D Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Luke 9:58 Lyrics: 1 A fox has a den,
a bird has a nest,
yet Jesus the Christ
had no place to rest,
save for a manger
in dim, dusty room,
an old, rugged cross,
a newly-made tomb.
2 Now risen, Christ walks
the streets of our town,
befriending the poor
wherever they’re found,
sharing the trials
of those without homes,
and bearing their pain
in feeling alone.
3 How can we leave you,
Christ, there with the poor,
to share in the life
that they must endure?
Here in our hearts there
is room! Be our guest!
Christ said, “I can’t come
without all the rest.
4 “When I was hungry,
you saw I was fed;
with no place to sleep,
you gave me a bed.
You were good neighbors
when I had no home,
now welcome the least,
my loved ones, my own.”
5 Compassionate Christ,
forgive us, we pray,
that we have ignored
the poor in this way.
Give us your vision
to see in each face
a neighbor in need
of our love and grace.
