And now, O Father, mindful of the love
Author: William Bright (1824-1901) Hymnal: AM2013 #423 (2013) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Tune Title: UNDE ET MEMORES Lyrics: 1 And now, O Father, mindful of the love
that bought us, once for all, on Calvary's tree,
and having with us him that pleads above,
we here present, we here spread forth to thee
that only offering perfect in thine eyes,
the one true, pure, immortal sacrifice.
2 Look, Father, look on his anointed face,
and only look on us as found in him;
look not on our misusings of thy grace,
our prayer so languid, and our faith so dim:
for lo, between our sins and their reward
we set the Passion of thy Son our Lord.
3 And then for those, our dearest and our best,
by this prevailing presence we appeal:
O fold them closer to thy mercy's breast,
O do thine utmost for their souls' true weal;
from tainting mischief keep them white and clear,
and crown thy gifts with strength to persevere.
4 And so we come: O draw us to thy feet,
most patient Saviour, who canst love us still;
and by this food, so aweful and so sweet,
deliver us from every touch of ill:
in thine own service make us glad and free,
and grant us never more to part with thee. Topics: Atonement; Church year Passiontide; Church Year Good Friday; Discipleship; Family and Friends; Holy Communion; Penitence; Proper 20 Year C; Proper 8 Year A; Sin; The Third Sunday before Advent Year B Scripture: Hebrews 7:25 Languages: English

Eternal God, before whose face we stand
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith (b. 1926) Hymnal: AM2013 #577 (2013) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Tune Title: UNDE ET MEMORES Lyrics: 1 Eternal God, before whose face we stand,
your earthly children, fashioned by your hand,
hear and behold us, for to you alone
all hearts are open, all our longings known:
so for our world and for ourselves we pray
the gift of peace, O Lord, in this our day.
2 We come with grief, with thankfulness and pride,
to hold in honour those who served and died;
we bring our hurt, our loneliness and loss,
to him who hung forsaken on the cross;
who, for our peace, our pains and sorrows bore,
and with the Father lives for evermore.
3 O Prince of Peace, who gave for us your life,
look down in pity on our sin and strife.
May this remembrance move our hearts to build
a peace enduring, and a hope fulfilled,
when every flag of tyranny is furled
and wars at last shall cease in all the world.
4 From earth's long tale of suffering here below
we pray the fragile flower of peace may grow,
till cloud and darkness vanish from our skies
to see the Sun of Righteousness arise.
When night is past and peace shall banish pain,
all shall be well, in God's eternal reign. Topics: Death and Bereavement; Grief; Nation and Society; National and Remembrance; Peace; Remembrance Sunday Scripture: Micah 4:2-3 Languages: English

The God of love my shepherd is
Author: George Herbert (1593-1633) Hymnal: AM2013 #792 (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Tune Title: UNIVERSITY Lyrics: 1 The God of love my shepherd is,
and he that doth me feed;
while he is mine and I am his,
what can I want or need?
2 He leads me to the tender grass,
where I both feed and rest;
then to the streams that gently pass:
in both I have the best.
3 Or if I stray, he doth convert,
and bring my mind in frame,
and all this not for my desert,
but for his holy name.
4 Yea, in death's shady black abode
well may I walk, not fear;
for thou art with me, and thy rod
to guide, thy staff to bear.
5 Surely thy sweet and wondrous love
shall measure all my days;
and, as it never shall remove,
so neither shall my praise. Topics: Funerals and The Departed; Assurance; Comfort and Consolation; Death and Bereavement; God Presence of; Providence; Trust and Confidence Scripture: Psalm 23 Languages: English

onward, Christians, onward go;
bear the toil, maintain the strife,
strengthened with the bread of life.

join the war, and face the foe;
will ye flee in danger's hour?
Know ye not your Captain's power?

soon shall every tear be dry:
let not fears your course impede;
great your strength, if great your need.
4 Let your drooping hearts be glad;
march in heavenly armour clad;
fight, nor think the battle long:
soon shall victory wake your song.
5 Onward then in battle move;
more than conquerors ye shall prove:
though opposed by many a foe,
Christian soldiers, onward go. Topics: Lent; Commitment; Conflict; Courage; Proper 23 Year C; Proper 7 Year B; The Third Sunday of Lent Year C; Victory Scripture: 2 Corinthians 6:1-10 Languages: English

come, our first and greatest Sign!

Come, ye faithful, raise the anthem

cleave the skies with shouts of praise;
sing to him who found the ransom,
Ancient of eternal Days,
God of God, the Word incarnate,
whom the heaven of heaven obeys.
2 Ere he raised the lofty mountains,
formed the seas, or built the sky,
love eternal, free, and boundless,
moved the Lord of life to die,
fore-ordained the Prince of princes
for the throne of Calvary.
3 There, for us and our redemption,
see him all his life-blood pour!
There he wins our full salvation,
dies that we may die no more;
then, arising, lives for ever,
reigning where he was before.
4 High on yon celestial mountains
stands his sapphire throne, all bright,
midst unending alleluias
bursting from the sons of light;
Zion's people tell his praises,
victor after hard-won fight.
5 Bring your harps, and bring your incense,
sweep the string and pour the lay;
let the earth proclaim his wonders,
King of that celestial day;
he the Lamb once slain is worthy,
who was dead, and lives for ay.
6 Laud and honour to the Father,
laud and honour to the Son,
laud and honour to the Spirit,
ever Three and ever One,
consubstantial, co-eternal,
while unending ages run. Topics: Atonement; Church Year Good Friday; Heaven; Jesus Names and images for; Praise; Proper 7 Year A Scripture: 1 Peter 1:18-21 Languages: English
