Glorious things of you are spoken

Author: John Newton, 1725-1807 Hymnal: Together in Song #446 (1999) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Anniversary of a Church Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of you are spoken, Zion, city of our God: he whose word cannot be broken formed you for his own abode. On the Rock of Ages founded, what can shake your sure repose? With salvation's walls surrounded you may smile at all your foes. 2 See, the streams of living waters, springing from eternal love, well supply your sons and daughters and all fear of want remove: who can faint while such a river ever flows their thirst to assuage - grace, which like the Lord the giver never fails from age to age? 3 Blest inhabitants of Zion, washed in their Redeemer's blood: Jesus, whom their souls rely on, makes them kings and priests to God. For his love his people raises over self to reign as kings, and as priests, his solemn praises each for a thank-offering brings. 4 Saviour, since of Zion's city I, through grace, a member am, let the world deride or pity, I will glory in your name: fading are the worldlings' pleasures, all their boasted pomp and show; solid joys and lasting treasures none but Zion's children know. Scripture: 1 Peter 2:1-8 Languages: English Tune Title: ABOT'S LEIGH

Community of Christ

Author: Shirley Erena Murray, 1931- Hymnal: Together in Song #473 (1999) Meter: 6.6.8.4 D Topics: Anniversary of a Church Lyrics: 1 Community of Christ, who make the Cross your own, live out your creed and risk your life for God alone: the God who wears your face, to whom all worlds belong, whose children are of every race and every song. 2 Community of Christ, look past the Church's door and see the refugee, the hungry, and the poor. Take hands with the oppressed, the jobless in your street, take towel and water, that you wash your neighbour's feet. 3 Community of Christ, through whom the word must sound - cry out for justice and for peace the whole world round: disarm the powers that war and all that can destroy, turn bombs to bread, and tears of anguish into joy. 4 When menace melts away, so shall God's will be done, the climate of the world be peace and Christ its Sun; our currency be love and kindliness our law, our food and faith be shared as one for evermore. Scripture: Matthew 8:8-17 Languages: English Tune Title: LEONI
