We pray thee, heavenly Father
Author: V. Stuckey. S. Coles, 1845-1929 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #311 (1986) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Lyrics: 1 We pray thee, heavenly Father,
To hear us in thy love,
And pour upon thy children
The unction from above;
That so in love abiding,
From all defilement free,
We may in pureness offer
Our Eucharist to thee.
2 All that we have we offer,
For it is all thine own,
All gifts, by thine appointment,
In bread and cup are shown;
One thing alone we bring not,
The wilfulness of sin,
And all we bring is nothing
Save that which is within.
3 Within the pure oblation,
Beneath the outward sign,
By that his operation,--
The Holy Ghost divine,--
Lies hid the sacred body,
Lies hid the precious blood,
Once slain, now ever glorious,
Of Christ our Lord and God.
4 Wherefore, though all unworthy
To offer sacrifice,
We pray that this our duty
Be pleasing in thine eyes;
For praise, and thanks and worship,
For mercy and for aid,
The catholic oblation
Of Jesus Christ is made. Topics: Sacraments and Other Rites Holy Communion Languages: English Tune Title: MEIRIONYDD

we may in pureness offer
our Eucharist to thee.
2 Be thou our guide and helper,
O Jesus Christ, we pray;
so may we well approach thee,
if thou wilt be the Way:
thou, very Truth, hast promised
to help us in our strife,
food of the weary pilgrim,
eternal source of life.
3 And thou, creator Spirit,
look on us, we are thine;
renew in us thy grace,
upon our darkness shine;
that, with thy benediction
upon our souls outpoured,
we may receive in gladness
the body of the Lord.

Author: William Channing Gannett, 1840-1923 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #40 (1993) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 The morning hangs a signal
upon the mountain crest,
while all the sleeping valleys
in silent darkness rest.
From peak to peak it flashes,
it laughs along the sky,
till glory of the sunlight
on all the land shall lie.
2 Above the generations
the lonely prophets rise,
while truth flares as the daystar
within their glowing eyes;
and other eyes, beholding,
are kindled from that flame;
and dawn becomes the morning,
when prophets love proclaim.
3 The soul has lifted moments,
above the drift of days,
when life’s great meaning breaketh
in sunrise on our ways.
Behold the radiant token
of faith above all fear;
night shall release its splendor
that morning shall appear. Topics: Transcending Mystery and Wonder Morning; Faith; Free and Responsible Search for Truth and Meaning; The Living Tradition; Prophets Languages: English Tune Title: MEIRIONYDD

I thee with songs extol;
my foes thou hast not suffered
to glory o'er my fall.

and thou didst heal and save;
thou, Lord, from death didst ransom
and keep me from the grave.

ye saints, give thanks and praise;
his anger lasts a moment;
his favor all our days;
for sorrow, like a pilgrim,
may tarry for a night,
but joy the heart will gladden
when dawns the morning light.
3 My grief is turned to gladness;
to thee my thanks I raise,
who hast removed my sorrow
and girded me with praise;
and now, no longer silent,
my heart thy praise will sing;
O Lord, my God, forever
my thanks to thee I bring.

Its summons unto men;
As once He spake in Zion,
So now He speaks again:
Whom shall I send to succor
My people in their need?
Whom shall I send to loosen
The bonds of shame and greed?
2. I hear my people crying
In cot and mine and slum;
No field or mart is silent,
No city street is dumb.
I see my people falling
In darkness and despair.
Whom shall I send to shatter
The fetters which they bear?
3. We heed, O Lord, thy summons,
And answer: Here are we!
Send us upon thine errand,
Let us thy servants be.
Our strength is dust and ashes,
Our years a passing hour;
But thou canst use our weakness
To magnify thy power.
4. From ease and plenty save us;
From pride of place absolve;
Purge us of low desire;
Lift us to high resolve;
Take us, and make us holy;
Teach us thy will and way.
Speak, and, behold! we answer;
Command, and we obey. Languages: English Tune Title: MEIRIONYDD

Author: S. Ralph Harlow, 1885-1972 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #276 (1993) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 O young and fearless Prophet
of ancient Galilee:
your life is still a summons
to serve humanity,
to make our thoughts and actions
less prone to please the crowd,
to stand with humble courage
for truth with hearts unbowed.
2 O help us stand unswerving
against war's bloody way,
where hate and lust and falsehood
hold back your holy sway;
forbid false love of country,
that turns us from your call
who lifts above the nation
the neighborhood of all.
3 Create in us the splendor
that dawns when hearts are kind,
that knows not race nor station
as bound'ries of the mind;
that learns to value beauty,
in heart, or mind, or soul,
and longs to see God's children
as sacred, perfect, whole.
4 Stir up in us a protest
against unneeded wealth;
for some go starved and hungry
who plead for work and health.
Once more give us your challenge
above our noisy day,
and come to lead us forward
along your holy way.

And bless us in thy grace;
Cause thou to shine upon us
The brightness of thy face;
That so thy way most holy
On earth may soon be known,
And unto ev'ry people
Thy saving grace be shown.

Let all the nations sing;
In ev'ry land let praises
And songs of gladness ring;
For thou shalt judge the people
In truth and righteousness,
And through the earth the nations
Shall thy just rule confess.
3 O God, let people praise thee,
Let all the nations sing,
For earth in rich abundance
To us her fruit shall bring.
The Lord our God shall bless us,
Our God shall blessing send,
And all the earth shall fear him
To its remotest end.

I need thee, precious Jesus
Author: Frederick Whitfield Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #419 (1961) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 I need thee, precious Jesus,
For I am full of sin;
My soul is dark and guilty,
My heart is dead within.
I need the cleansing fountain
Where I can always flee,
The blood of Christ most precious,
The sinner's perfect plea.
2 I need thee, precious Jesus,
For I am very poor;
A stranger and a pilgrim,
I have no earthly store.
I need the love of Jesus
To cheer me on my way,
To guide my doubting footsteps,
To be my strength and stay.
3 I need thee, precious Jesus,
And hope to see thee soon,
Encircled with the rainbow
And seated on thy throne.
There, with thy blood-bought children,
My joy shall ever be,
To sing my Jesus' praises,
Amen. Topics: Blessed Hope; Christ The Life; Christian Life Faith in Christ; Deliverance; Grace Sanctifying; Longing for Christ and God; Need for Christ or God Scripture: Psalm 41:4 Languages: English Tune Title: MEIRIONYDD

The Voice of God Is Calling
The Voice of God is Calling
Author: John Haynes Holmes Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #436 (1989) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1. The voice of God is calling
its summons in our day;
Isaiah heard in Zion,
and we now hear God say:
"Whom shall I send to succor
my people in their need?
Whom shall I send to loosen
the bonds of shame and greed?
2. "I hear my people crying
in slum and mine and mill;
no field or mart is silent,
no city street is still.
I see my people falling
in darkness and despair.
Whom shall I send to shatter
the fetters which they bear?"
3. We heed, O Lord, your summons,
and answer: Here are we!
Send us upon your errand,
let us your servants be.
Our strength is dust and ashes,
our years a passing hour;
but you can use our weakness
to magnify your power.
4. From ease and plenty save us;
from pride of place absolve;
purge us of low desire;
lift us to high resolve;
take us, and make us holy;
teach us your will and way.
Speak, and behold! we answer;
command, and we obey!

How Blest, Those Whose Transgressions (Psalm 32)
Hymnal: Glory to God #446 (2013) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D First Line: How blest, those whose transgressions Lyrics: 1 How blest, those whose transgressions
have freely been forgiven;
whose guilt is wholly covered
before the sight of heaven.
Blest, those to whom our Lord God
will not impute their sin:
whose guilt has been forgiven;
whose hearts, made true again.
2 While I kept guilty silence,
my strength was spent with grief.
Your hand was heavy on me;
my life found no relief.
But when I made confession
and hid no sin from you,
when I revealed my failings,
you gave me life anew.
3 So let the godly seek you,
when troubling times are near;
no storm or flood shall reach them,
nor cause their hearts to fear.
In you, O Lord, I hide me;
you save me from all ill.
And songs of your salvation
my heart with rapture fill.

O Jesus, We Adore You
Author: Arthur T. Russell Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Gray) #472 (1987) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, we adore you,
upon the cross, our King.
We bow our hearts before you;
your gracious name we sing.
That name has brought salvation,
that name in life our stay,
our peace, our consolation,
when life shall fade away.
2 The world does yet disdain you,
still passing by the cross;
Lord, may our hearts retain you;
all else we count but loss.
Ah, Lord, our sins arraigned you
and nailed you to the tree;
our pride, O Lord, disdained you,
yet you have set us free.
3 O glorious King, we praise you,
no longer pass you by;
O Jesus, we confess you
the Son enthroned on high.
Lord, grant to us forgiveness;
life through your death restore;
yes, grant to us the fullness
of life forevermore.
