I Sing a Song of the Saints of God
Author: Lesbia Scott Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #712 (1989) Meter: Irregular Topics: New Heaven and a New Earth Communion of the Saints; New Heaven and a New Earth Communion of the Saints Lyrics: 1. I sing a song of the saints of God,
patient and brave and true,
who toiled and fought and lived and died
for the Lord they loved and knew.
And one was a doctor, and one was a queen,
and one was a shepherdess on the green;
they were all of them saints of God, and I mean,
God helping, to be one too.
2. They loved their Lord so dear, so dear,
and his love made them strong;
and they followed the right for Jesus' sake
the whole of their good lives long.
And one was a soldier, and one was a priest,
and one was slain by a fierce wild beast;
and there's not any reason, no, not the least,
why I shouldn't be one too.
3. They lived not only in ages past;
there are hundreds of thousands still.
The world is bright with the joyous saints
who love to do Jesus' will.
You can meet them in school, on the street, in the store,
in church, by the sea, in the house next door;
they are saints of God, whether rich or poor,
and I mean to be one too.

a world without saints forgets how to praise.
Their faith in acquiring the habit of prayer,
their depth of adoring, Lord, help us to share.

some need to withdraw, the better to pray.
Some carry the gospel through fire and through flood;
our world is their parish; their purpose is God.
3 Rejoice in those saints, unpraised and unknown,
who bear someone's cross or shoulder their own.
They shame our complaining, our comforts, our cares;
what patience in caring, what courage, is theirs!
4 Rejoice in God's saints, today and all days;
a world without saints forgets how to praise.
In loving, in living, they prove it is true:
the way of self-giving, Lord, leads us to you.

How Clear Is Our Vocation, Lord
Author: Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: Lift Up Your Hearts #856 (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.8.6.6 Topics: Communion of the Saints Lyrics: 1 How clear is our vocation, Lord,
when once we heed your call:
to live according to your word,
and daily learn, refreshed, restored,
that you are Lord of all,
and will not let us fall.
2 But if, forgetful, we should find
your yoke is hard to bear;
if worldly pressures fray the mind,
and love itself cannot unwind
its tangled skein of care:
our inward life repair.
3 We marvel how your saints become
in hindrances more sure;
whose joyful virtues put to shame
the casual way we wear your name,
and by our faults obscure
your power to cleanse and cure.
4 In what you give us, Lord, to do,
together or alone,
in old routines and ventures new
may we not cease to look to you,
the cross you hung upon–
all you endeavored done. Scripture: Romans 6:1-4 Languages: English Tune Title: REPTON

I hear the call to prayer;
Let us go up to God's own house
And bow before Him there,
And bow before Him there.
2 We stand within thy sacred walls,
O Zion, blest for aye,
Wherein the people of the Lord
United homage pay,
United homage pay.
3 They come to learn Jehovah's will,
His mighty deeds to own,
For there is judgment's royal seat,
Messiah's kingly throne,
Messiah's kingly throne.
4 O pray that Zion may be blest
And have abundant peace,
For all that love thee in their hearts
Shall prosper and increase,
Shall prosper and increase.
5 I pray the Lord that peace may still
Within thy walls abound,
And ever in thy palaces
Prosperity be found,
Prosperity be found.
6 Yea, for the sake of friends and kin,
My heart desires thy peace,
And for the house of God the Lord
My care shall never cease,
My care shall never cease. Scripture: Psalm 122 Languages: English Tune Title: HARVEY'S CHANT
