Come and find the quiet centre
Author: Shirley Erena Murray (b. 1931) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 12 hymnals Scripture: James 2:14-17 Lyrics: 1 Come and find the quiet centre
in the crowded life we lead,
find the room for hope to enter,
find the frame where we are freed:
clear the chaos and the clutter,
clear our eyes, that we can see
all the things that really matter,
be at peace, and simply be.
2 Silence is a friend who claims us,
cools the heat and slows the pace;
God it is who speaks and names us,
knows our being, touches base,
making space within our thinking,
lifting shades to show the sun,
raising courage when we're shrinking,
finding scope for faith begun.
3 In the Spirit let us travel,
open to each other's pain;
let our loves and fears unravel,
celebrate the space we gain:
there's a place for deepest dreaming,
there's a time for heart to care;
in the Spirit's lively scheming
there is always room to spare! Topics: The Church Celebrates Wholeness and Healing; Encouragement; Freedom and Liberation Used With Tune: LEWIS FOLK MELODY

When We Walk with the Lord (Para andar con Jesús)

In the light of his Word,
What a glory he sheds on our way!
While we do his good will;
He abides with us still,
And with all who will trust and obey.
Refrain:
Trust and obey,
for there's no other way
To be happy in Jesus,
But to trust and obey.
2 Not a burden we bear,
Not a sorrow we share,
But our toil he doth richly repay;
Not a grief or a loss,
Not a frown or a cross,
But is blest if we trust and obey. [Refrain]
3 But we never can prove
The delights of his love
Until all on the altar we lay;
For the favor he shows
And the joy he bestows
Are for those who will trust and obey. [Refrain]
4 Then in fellowship sweet
We will sit at his feet,
Or we'll walk by his side in the way;
What he says we will do,
Where he sends we will go;
Never fear, only trust and obey. [Refrain]

1 Para andar con Jesús
no hay senda mejor
que guardar sus mandatos de amor;
obedientes a él
siempre habremos de ser,
y tendremos de Cristo el poder.
Estribillo:
Obedecer y confiar en Jesús,
es la senda marcada
para andar en la luz.
2 Quien siguiere a Jesús
ni una sombra verá,
si confiado su vida le da;
ni terrores ni afán,
ni ansiedad ni dolor,
pues lo cuida su amante Señor. [Estribillo]
3 Mas sus dones de amor
nunca habréis de alcanzar,
si rendidos no vais a su altar,
pues su paz y su amor
sólo son para aquel
que a sus leyes divinas es fiel. [Estribillo]
4 Cuando vamos así,
¡cómo brilla la luz
en la senda al andar con Jesús!
Su promesa de estar
con los suyos es fiel,
si obedecen y esperan en él. [Estribillo]

God is a Spirit, just and wise
Author: Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 156 hymnals Scripture: James 2:14-26 Lyrics: 1 God is a Spirit, just and wise
He sees our inmost mind;
In vain to heaven we raise our cries,
And leave our souls behind.
2 Nothing but truth before his throne
With honor can appear;
The painted hypocrites are known
Through the disguise they wear.
3 Their lifted eyes salute the skies,
Their bended knees the ground;
But God abhors the sacrifice
Where not the heart is found.
4 Lord, search my thoughts, and try my ways,
And make my soul sincere;
Then shall I stand before thy face,
And find acceptance there. Topics: Attributes of God Spirituality; God is a Spirit

That not by words alone,
But by the fruits of holiness,
The life of God is shown,
The life of God is shown!
2 While in Thy house of prayer we meet,
And call Thee God and Lord,
Give us a heart to follow Thee,
Obedient to Thy Word!
Obedient to Thy Word!

Uphold us as we go;
That with our lips, and in our lives,
Thy glory we may show,
Thy glory we may show.
