O God, We Bear the Imprint of Your Face
Author: Shirley Erena Murray Hymnal: PH1990 #385 (1990) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 O God, we bear the imprint of your face:
The colors of our skin are Your design,
And what we have of beauty in our race
As man or woman, You alone define,
Who stretched a living fabric on our frame
And gave to each a language and a name.
2 Where we are torn and pulled apart by hate
Because our race, our skin is not the same;
While we are judged unequal by the state
And victims made because we own our name,
Humanity reduced to little worth,
Dishonored is Your living face on earth.
3 O God, we share the image of your Son
Whose flesh and blood are ours, whatever skin,
In His humanity we find our own,
And in his family our proper kin:
Christ is the brother we still crucify,
His love the language we must learn, or die.

Now Israel May Say
Hymnal: PH1990 #236 (1990) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 Now Israel may say, and that in truth:
If that the Lord had not our right maintained,
If that the Lord had not with us remained
When cruel foes against us rose to strive,
We surely had been swallowed up alive.
2 Yea, when their wrath against us fiercely rose,
The swelling tide had o’er us spread its wave,
The raging stream had then become our grave,
The surging flood, in proudly swelling roll,
Most surely then had overwhelmed our soul.
3 Blest be the Lord, who made us not their prey;
As from the snare a bird escapeth free,
Their net is rent and so escaped are we;
Our only help is in God’s holy name,
Who made the earth and all the heavenly frame.

Here grasp with firmer hand eternal grace,
And all our weariness upon You lean.

Another arm save Yours to lean upon.

Our strength is in Your might, Your might alone.

This is the heavenly table for us spread;
Here let us feast and, feasting, still prolong
The fellowship of living wine and bread.

The feast, though not the love, is past and gone;
The bread and wine remove; but You art here,
Nearer than ever, still our Shield and Sun.

Yet, passing, points to that glad feast above,
Giving sweet foretaste of the festal joy,
The Lamb’s great bridal feast of bliss and love.

Brightest and Best of the Stars of the Morning
Author: Reginald Heber Hymnal: PH1990 #67 (1990) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Lyrics: 1 Brightest and best of the stars of the morning,
Dawn on our darkness and lend us thine aid;
Star of the east, the horizon adorning,
Guide where our infant Redeemer is laid.
2 Cold on His cradle the dewdrops are shining,
Low lies His head with the beasts of the stall;
Angels adore Him in slumber reclining,
Maker and Monarch and Savior of all!
3 Shall we then yield Him, in costly devotion,
Odors of Edom and offerings divine.
Gems of the mountain and pearls of the ocean,
Myrrh from the forest, or gold from the mine?
4 Vainly we offer each ample oblation,
Vainly with gifts would His favor secure;
Richer by far is the heart’s adoration,
Dearer to God are the prayers of the poor.

And confidently waiting, come what may,
We know that God is with us night and morning
And never fails to greet us each new day.
2 Yet is this heart by its old foe tormented,
Still evil days bring burdens hard to bear;
O give our frightened souls the sure salvation
For which, O Lord, You taught us to prepare.
3 And when this cup You give is filled to brimming
With bitter suffering, hard to understand,
We take it thankfully and without trembling,
Out of so good and so beloved a hand.
4 Yet when again in this same world You give us
The joy we had, the brightness of Your sun,
We shall remember all the days we lived through,
And our whole life shall then be Yours alone. Scripture: Psalm 13:5-6 Languages: English Tune Title: INTERCESSOR

Bringing to hungry souls the bread of life,

To heal earth's wounds and end our bitter strife.

Showing to wandering souls the path of light:
Walk Thou beside us lest the tempting byways
Lure us away from Thee to endless night.

From death and dark despair, from sin and guilt;
We render back the love Thy mercy gave us;
Take Thou our lives and use them as Thou wilt.

Who by this sign did conquer grief and pain,
We would be faithful to Thy gospel glorious;
