God is here! As we his people

Author: F. Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 47 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 10:24-25 Lyrics: 1 God is here! As we your people meet to offer praise and prayer, may we find in fuller measure what it is in Christ we share. Here, as in the world around us, all our varied skills and arts wait the coming of the Spirit into open minds and hearts. 2 Here are symbols to remind us of our lifelong need of grace; Here are table, font, and pulpit; here the cross has central place. Here in honesty of preaching, here in silence, as in speech, here in newness and renewal, God the Spirit comes to each. 3 Here our children find a welcome in the Shepherd's flock and fold, here as bread and wine are taken, Christ sustains us as of old. Here the servants of the Servant seek in worship to explore what it means in daily living to believe and to adore. 4 Lord of all, of Church and Kingdom, in an age of change and doubt, keep us faithful to the gospel, help us work your purpose out. Here, in this day's dedication, all we have to give, receive: we, who cannot live without you, we adore you! We believe.

Victim Divine

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 41 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 10:12-22 First Line: Victim Divine, thy grace we claim Lyrics: 1 Victim Divine, thy grace we claim while thus thy precious death we show; once offered up, a spotless Lamb, in thy great temple here below, thou didst for all our kind atone, and standest now before the throne. 2 Thou standest in the holiest place, as now for guilty sinners slain; thy blood of sprinkling speaks, and prays, all prevalent for helpless ones; thy blood is still our ransom found, and spreads salvation all around. 3 The smoke of thy atonement here darkened the sun and rent the veil, made the new way to heaven appear, and showed the great Invisible; well pleased in thee our God looked down, and called his rebels to a crown. 4 He still respects thy sacrifice, its savor sweet doth always please; the offering smokes through earth and skies, diffusing life, and joy, and peace; to these thy lower courts it comes, and fills them with divine perfumes. 5 We need not now go up to heaven, to bring the long sought Savior down; thou art to all already given, thou dost e’en now thy banquet crown: To every faithful soul appear, and show thy real presence here!
