at eventide descend,
so life's brief day is sinking down
to its appointed end.
2 Lord, on the cross thine arms were stretched
to draw thy people nigh:
O grant us then that cross to love,

Author: Rev. John Hampden Gurney (1802-1862) Hymnal: The Hymnal #145 (1950) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Lord, as to Thy dear cross we flee,
And plead to be forgiven,
So let Thy life our pattern be,
And form our souls for heaven.
2 Help us through good report and ill
Our daily cross to bear,
Like Thee, to do our Father's will,
Our brethren's griefs to share.
3 Let grace our selfishness expel,
Our earthliness refine,
And kindness in our bosoms dwell,
As free and true as Thine.
4 If joy shall at Thy bidding fly,
And grief's dark day come on,
We, in our turn, would meekly cry,
"Father, Thy will be done."
5 Kept peaceful in the midst of strife,
Forgiving and forgiven,
O may we lead the pilgrim's life,
And follow Thee to heaven.

Dear Refuge Of My Weary Soul
Author: Anne Steele Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9476 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Dear refuge of my weary soul,
On Thee, when sorrows rise,
On Thee, when waves of trouble roll,
My fainting hope relies.
2 While hope revives, though pressed with fear
And I can say My God,
Beneath Thy feet I spread my cares,
And pour my woes abroad.
3 To Thee I tell each rising grief,
For Thou alone canst heal;
Thy Word can bring a sweet relief
For every pain I feel.
4 But oh! when gloomy doubts prevail,
I fear to call Thee mine;
The springs of comfort seem to fail,
And all my hopes decline.
5 Yet, gracious God, where shall I flee?
Thou art my only trust,
And still my soul would cleave to Thee,
Though prostrate in the dust.
6 Hast Thou not bid me seek Thy face?
And shall I seek in vain?
And can the ear of sovereign grace
Be deaf when I complain?
7 No, still the ear of sovereign grace
Attends the mourner’s prayer;
O may I ever find a place
To breathe my sorrows there.
8 Thy mercy seat is open still;
Here let my soul retreat,
With humble hope attend Thy will,
And wait beneath Thy feet. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. COLUMBA

From Whence These Dire Portents Around?
Author: Samuel Wesley, Jr. Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10966 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: From whence these dire portents around Lyrics: 1 From whence these dire portents around,
That earth and Heav’n amaze?
Wherefore do earthquakes cleave the ground?
Why hides the sun his rays?
2 Not thus did Sinai’s trembling head
With sacred horror nod,
Beneath the dark pavilion spread
Of legislative God!
3 Thou earth, thy lowest center shake,
With Jesu sympathize!
Thou sun, as hell’s deep gloom be black,
’Tis thy creator dies!
4 What tongue the tortures can describe
Of this vindictive hour?
Wrath He alone had will to share
As He alone had power!
5 See streaming from th’accursèd tree
His all-atoning blood!
Is this the Infinite? ’Tis He!
My Savior and my God!
6 For me these pangs His soul assail,
For me the death is born!
My sin gave sharpness to the nail,
And pointed every thorn.
7 Let sin no more my soul enslave,
Break, Lord, the tyrant’s chain;
Oh, save me whom Thou cam’st to save,
Nor bleed nor die in vain! Languages: English Tune Title: ST. COLUMBA

Creator God, You Made the Earth
Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Hymnal: Songs of Grace #4a (2009) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Lyrics: Creator God, you made the earth,
A gift beyond comparing!
You called it good, you gave it worth,
You placed it in our caring.
You gave your gift of Sabbath rest,
Your pattern for creation.
You give us times to heal, to bless,
To join in celebration.
You give us Christ, who reconciled
The things of earth and heaven.
In him, you call each one your child!
What wondrous love you've given!
Because we've turned away from you,
This world still needs your healing.
Creation longs to be made new
Through Christ, your love revealing.
God, by your Spirit, may we be
Communities of caring,
That as we're healed, your world may see
The hope that we are sharing. Topics: Covenant/Salvation History; Creation/Earth Day/Environmnet; Sunday/Sabbath Scripture: Colossians 3:12-16 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. COLUMBA

Immortal Love
Author: John Greenleaf Whittier, 1807-1892 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #10 (1993) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Immortal love, forever full Lyrics: 1 Immortal love, forever full,
forever flowing free,
forever shared, forever whole,
a never-ending sea!
2 Our outward lips confess the name
all other names above;
but love alone knows whence it came
and comprehendeth love.
3 Blow, winds of love, awake and blow
the mists of hate away:
sing out, O Truth divine, and tell
how wide and far we stray.
4 The letter fails, the systems fall,
and every symbol wanes;
the Spirit over-seeing all,
Eternal Love, remains. Topics: Transcending Mystery and Wonder The Celebration of Life; Love Languages: English Tune Title: ST. COLUMBA

As now the sun's declining rays
Author: Charles Coffin, 1676-1749; John Chandler, 1806-1876 Hymnal: Common Praise #11a (2000) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 As now the sun's declining rays
at eventide descend,
so life's brief day is sinking down
to its appointed end.
2 Lord, on the cross thine arms were stretched
to draw thy people nigh:
O grant us then that cross to love,
and in those arms to die.
3 All glory to the Father be,
all glory to the Son,
all glory, Holy Ghost, to thee,
while endless ages run. Topics: Evening Scripture: John 12:32-33 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. COLUMBA

The King of Love My Shepherd Is
Author: Henry Williams Baker Hymnal: Psalms for All Seasons #23D (2012) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 The King of love my Shepherd is,
whose goodness faileth never;
I nothing lack if I am his
and he is mine forever.
2 Where streams of living water flow
my ransomed soul he leadeth,
and where the verdant pastures grow,
with food celestial feedeth.
3 Perverse and foolish, oft I strayed,
but yet in love he sought me,
and on his shoulder gently laid,
and home, rejoicing, brought me.
4 In death's dark vale I fear no ill
with thee, dear Lord, beside me;
thy rod and staff my comfort still,
thy cross before to guide me.
5 Thou spreadst a table in my sight;
thy unction grace bestoweth;
and oh, what transport of delight
from thy pure chalice floweth!
6 And so through all the length of days
thy goodness faileth never;
Good Shepherd, may I sing thy praise
within thy house forever.

O God of Life, Your Healing Touch
Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Hymnal: Songs of Grace #57b (2009) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Lyrics: O God of life, your healing touch
Brings wholeness and salvation!
In you, this world you love so much
Becomes a new creation.
Through Jesus Christ you blessed the poor,
Unleashed your gifts of healing.
You gave new sight, new strength, new life—
To all, your love revealing.
O Christ, the loving healer still,
You gather us for mission
To serve your people who are ill,
Whatever their condition.
You send us to the suffering
With medicine and caring;
Now make our lives an offering
To those who are despairing.
Lord, by your Spirit, may we hear
The truth of others’ stories.
May we respect their doubts and fears,
Their hopes and dreams, their worries.
And when their ways are not our own,
Lord, give us understanding:
Our faith cannot be fully grown
When we are too unbending.
How long, Lord, shall we serve the poor—
A week, a month, a season?
We ask the question, hoping for
A limit to our mission.
But open wide our hearts anew
And show us, as we’re giving,
Your life-long call to serving you
In daily, generous living. Topics: Wholeness and Healing, Service of Languages: English Tune Title: ST. COLUMBA

Put Peace into Each Other's Hands
Author: Fred Kaan, 1929-2009 Hymnal: Hymns of Promise #77 (2015) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Put peace into each other's hands
and like a treasure hold it;
protect it like a candle flame,
with tenderness enfold it.
2 Put peace into each other's hands
with loving expectation;
be gentle in your words and ways,
in touch with God's creation.
3 Put peace into each other's hands,
like bread we break for sharing;
look people warmly in the eye:
our life is meant for caring.
4 As at communion, shape your hands
into a waiting cradle;
the gift of Christ receive, revere,
united round the table.
5 Put Christ into each other's hands,
he is love's deepest measure;
in love make peace, give peace a chance
and share it like a treasure. Topics: Walking in Faith Languages: English Tune Title: ST. COLUMBA
