your holy word the truth that rescues me.
Give me to eat and live with you above;

that he may touch my eyes and make me see.
Show me the truth made plain within your Word,
for in your book revealed I see you, Lord.

O Master Workman of the Race

That shone Thy whole life through;

My Father's work to do?"

Build us a tower of Christ-like height,
That we the land may view,
And see, like Thee, our noblest work,
Our Father's work to do.

And givest each his task,
And with the task sufficient strength,
Show us Thy will, we ask;
Give us a conscience bold and good,
Give us a purpose true,
That it may be our highest joy
Our Father's work to do.

O Christ, the Healer, We Have Come
Author: Fred Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 37 hymnals Scripture: Mark 6:13 Lyrics: 1 O Christ, the healer, we have come
to pray for health, to plead for friends.
How can we fail to be restored
when reached by love that never ends?
2 From every ailment flesh endures
our bodies clamor to be freed;
yet in our hearts we would confess
that wholeness is our deepest need.
3 In conflicts that destroy our health
we recognize the world's disease;
our common life declares our ills.
Is there no cure, O Christ, for these?
4 Grant that we all, made one in faith,
in your community may find
the wholeness that, enriching us,
shall reach the whole of humankind.

Beset by change but Spirit led,
Must claim and test its heritage
And keep on rising from the dead.

The victims of injustice cry
For shelter and for bread to eat,
And never live until they die.

A caring Church that longs to be
A partner in Christ's sacrifice,
And clothed in Christ's humanity.

Can cure the fever in our blood,
And teach us how to share our bread
And feed the starving multitude.

In full obedience to our Lord:
To care for all, without reserve,
And spread his liberating Word. Topics: Charity; Christian Life; Church; Hunger; Justice; Ministry/Mission; Obedience; Social Concern Used With Tune: DUNEDIN

O God, Our Creator, You Work Every Day
Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Mark 6:3 Lyrics: O God, our Creator, you work every day:
A potter, you form us, your people, like clay.
A shepherd, you guide us and seek out the lost.
A parent, you love us, not counting the cost.
Christ Jesus, how rough were your hard-working hands!
You labored among us; our God understands!
Bless workers who struggle, their families to feed;
Bless those who face hardship, oppression, or greed.
Lord, some live among us who need constant care,
Whose work is to make us more humbly aware.
They teach us the best of your lessons, by far:
It’s not what we do, Lord, you love who we are!
We’re baptized! Your Spirit gives new work to do,
That we, through our serving, may glorify you.
Each person’s vocation, each calling, has worth
As you send us out to bring Christ’s love on earth.

Your Hands, O Lord, in Days of Old
Author: Edward Hayes Plumptre, 1821-1891 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 177 hymnals Scripture: Mark 6 Lyrics: 1 Your hands, O Lord, in days of old
were strong to heal and save;
they triumphed over pain and death,
o'er darkness and the grave.
To you they went, the blind, the mute,
the palsied and the lame,
the leper set apart and shunned,
the sick and those in shame.
2 And then your touch brought life and health,
gave speech and strength and sight;
and youth renewed, with health restored,
claimed you, the Lord of light.
And so, O Lord, be near to bless,
almighty now as then,
in every street, in every home,
in every troubled friend.
3 O be our mighty healer still,
O Lord of life and death;
restore and strengthen, soothe and bless
with your almighty breath.
On hands that work and eyes that see,
your healing wisdom pour,
that whole and sick and weak and strong
may praise you evermore.

Author: Jeffery Rowthorn (1954-) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 43 hymnals Scripture: Mark 6:1-13 Lyrics: 1 Lord, you give the great commission:
"Heal the sick and preach the word."
Lest the church neglect its mission
and the gospel go unheard,
help us witness to your purpose
with renewed integrity;
with the Spirit's gifts empower us
for the work of ministry.
2 Lord, you call us to your service:
"In my name baptize and teach."
That the world may trust your promise,
life abundant meant for each,
give us all new fervour, draw us
closer in community;
with the Spirit's gifts empower us
for the work of ministry.
3 Lord, you make the common holy:
"This my body, this my blood."
Let your priests, for earth's true glory,
daily lift life heavenward,
asking that the world around us
share your children's liberty;
with the Spirit's gifts empower us
for the work of ministry.
4 Lord, you show us love's true measure:
"Father, what they do, forgive."
Yet we hoard as private treasure
all that you so freely give.
May your care and mercy lead us
to a just society;
with the Spirit's gifts empower us
for the work of ministry.
5 Lord, you bless with words assuring:
"I am with you to the end."
Faith and hope and love restoring,
may we serve as you intend,
and, amid the cares that claim us,
hold in mind eternity;
with the Spirit's gifts empower us
for the work of ministry. Topics: Call and Vocation; Mission; Ordination; Stewardship; Baptism (general) Used With Tune: ABBOT'S LEIGH
