Draw Near and Take the Body of the Lord

Author: John M. Neale, 1818-66 Hymnal: Christian Worship (1993) #309 (1993) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Hymnal Title: Christian Worship (1993) Lyrics: 1 Draw near and take the body of the Lord, And drink the holy blood for you outpoured. Offered was he for greatest and for least, Himself the victim and himself the priest. 2 He that his saints in this world rules and shields To all believers life eternal yields, With heav'nly bread makes them that hunger whole, Gives living waters to the thirsty soul. 3 Come forward, then, with faithful hearts sincere, And take the pledges of salvation here. Before your altar, Lord, your servants bow; In this your feast of love be with us now. Topics: Holy Communion; Holy Communion Languages: English Tune Title: OLD 124TH

God of the Prophets

Author: Denis Wortman, 1835-1922 Hymnal: Christian Worship (1993) #543 (1993) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Hymnal Title: Christian Worship (1993) First Line: God of the prophets, bless the prophets' sons Lyrics: 1 God of the prophets, bless the prophets' sons; Elijah's mantle o'er Elisha cast. Each age its solemn task may claim but once; Make each one better, nobler than the last. 2 Anoint them prophets, men who are intent To be your witnesses in word and deed, Their hearts aflame, their lips made eloquent, Their eyes awake to ev'ry human need. 3 Anoint them priests, strong intercessors they, For pardon and for love and hope and peace, That, through their pleading, guilty sinners may Find Jesus' mercy and from sin release. 4 Anoint them kings, yes, kingly kings, O Lord. Anoint them with the Spirit of your Son. Theirs not a jeweled crown, a blood-stained sword; Theirs, by sweet love, for Christ a kingdom won. 5 Make them apostles, heralds of your cross; Forth let them go to tell the world of grace. Inspired by you, may they count all but loss And stand at last with joy before your face. Topics: Ministry; Ministry Languages: English Tune Title: OLD 124TH

Psalm 124

Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #84 (2005) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10 Hymnal Title: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) First Line: Now Israel may say, and that truly, Lyrics: 1 Now Israel may say, and that truly, if that the Lord had not our cause maintained; if that the Lord had not our right sustained, when cruel men against us furiously rose up in wrath, to make of us their prey; 2 Then certainly they had devoured us all, and swallowed quick, for aught that we could deem; such was their rage, as we might well esteem. And as fierce floods before them all things drown, so had they brought our soul to death quite down. 3 The raging streams, with their proud swelling waves, had then our soul o'erwhelmèd in the deep. But blest be God, who doth us safely keep, and hath not given us for a living prey unto their teeth, and bloody cruelty. 4 Even as a bird out of the fowler's snare escapes away, so is our soul set free: broke are their nets, and thus escapèd we. Therefore our help is in the Lord's great name, who heaven and earth by his great power did frame.
