The Church's One Foundation

Author: Samuel J. Stone, 1839-1900 Hymnal: HOP2015 #49 (2015) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 The Church's one foundation is Jesus Christ her Lord; she is his new creation, by water and the word: from heaven he came and sought her to be his holy bride; with his own blood he bought her, and for her life he died. 2 Elect from every nation, yet one o'er all the earth, her charter of salvation: one Lord, one faith, one birth; one holy name she blesses, partakes one holy food, and to one hope she presses with every grace endued. 3 'Mid toil and tribulation, and tumult of her war, she waits the consummation of peace forevermore, till with the vision glorious her longing eyes are blest, and the great Church victorious shall be the Church at rest. 4 Yet she on earth hath union with God, the Three in One, and mystic sweet communion with those whose rest is won: O happy ones and holy! Lord, give us grace that we, like them, the meek and lowly, on high may dwell with thee. Topics: Praise to Christ Languages: English Tune Title: AURELIA

Help Us Accept Each Other

Author: Fred Kaan, 1929-2009 Hymnal: HOP2015 #117 (2015) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 Help us accept each other as Christ accepted us; teach us as sister, brother, each person to embrace. Be present, Lord, among us and bring us to believe We are ourselves accepted, and meant to love and live. 2 Teach us, O Lord, your lessons, as in our daily life we struggle to be human and search for hope and faith. Teach us to care for people, for all, not just for some, to love them as we find them, or as they may become. 3 Let your acceptance change us, so that we may be moved in living situations to do the truth in love; to practice your acceptance until we know by heart the table of forgiveness, and laughter's healing art. 4 Lord, for today's encounters with all who are in need, who hunger for acceptance, for justice, and for bread, we need new eyes for seeing, new hands for holding on; renew us with your Spirit; Lord, free us, make us one!

Beneath the Cross of Jesus

Author: Elizabeth C. Clephane, 1830-1869 Hymnal: HOP2015 #162 (2015) Meter: 7.6.8.6.8.6.8.6 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 burden of the day. 2 Upon that cross of Jesus my eyes at times can see the very dying form of One who suffered there for me; and from my smitten heart with tears two wonders I confess-- the wonders of redeeming 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.
