Faith Begins by Letting Go

Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., b. 1944 Hymnal: SNC #172 (2002) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Person Name: Carl P. Daw, Jr., b. 1944 Lyrics: 1 Faith begins by letting go, giving up what had seemed sure, taking risks and pressing on, though the way feels less secure: pilgrimage both right and odd, trusting all our life to God. 2 Faith endures by holding on, keeping mem’ry’s roots alive so that hope may bear its fruit; promise-fed, our souls will thrive, not through merit we possess but by God’s great faithfulness. 3 Faith matures by reaching out, stretching minds, enlarging hearts, sharing struggles, living prayer, binding up the broken parts; till we find the commonplace ripe with witness to God’s grace.

Let those who sow with tears and sighing sing as they reap and joy proclaim: may those who weep when seed is scattered gather their sheaves and praise your name.

Have We Any Gift Worth Giving

What would please the ever-living, one true God from whom life springs? Not dead gold or merchandise, but a living sacrifice: worship both profound and freeing, serving God 2 Christ by costly incarnation dwelt in human time and place to reveal to all creation God’s redeeming love and grace; so are we in flesh and bone given means of making known through the web of daily living God’s own pattern of self-giving. 3 Let us shun the selfish merit worldly wisdom has defined, but renewed by God’s own Spirit be transformed in heart and mind; by past mercies taught and led, let us seek the path ahead, trusting that, like those before us, God will guide us and restore us.

Give us, Christ, your great compassion to forgive as you forgave; may we still behold your image in the world you died to save. 3 Gracious Spirit, help us summon other guests to share that feast where triumphant Love will welcome those who had been last and least. There no more will envy blind us nor will pride our peace destroy, as we join with saints and angels to repeat the sounding joy.
