We All Are One in Mission

Author: Rusty Edwards Hymnal: Celebrating Grace Hymnal #269 (2010) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 We all are one in mission, we all are one in call, our varied gifts united by Christ, the Lord of all. A single great commission compels us from above to plan and work together that all may know Christ's love. 2 We all are called for service to witness in God's name. Our ministries are different, our purpose is the same: to touch the lives of others by God's surprising grace so every land and nation may feel God's warm embrace. 3 We all behold one vision, a stark reality: the steward of salvation was nailed upon a tree. Yet resurrected Justice gives rise that we may share free reconciliation and hope amid despair. 4 Now let us be united and let our song be heard. Now let us be a vessel for God's redeeming word. We all are one in mission, we all are one in call, our varied gifts united by Christ, the Lord of all.

Jerusalem the Golden

Neale, 1818-1866 Hymnal: Lutheran Book of Worship #347 (1978) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 First Line: Jerusalem, the golden Lyrics: 1 Jerusalem the golden, With milk and honey blest, Beneath your contemplation Sink heart and voice oppressed. I know not, oh, I know not, What social joys are there, What radiancy of glory, What bliss beyond compare. 2 They stand, those halls of Zion, Conjubilant with song And bright with many an angel And all the martyr throng. The prince is ever in them; The daylight is serene; The pastures of the blessed Are decked in glorious sheen. 3 There is the throne of David, And there, from care released, The shout of those who triumph, The song of those who feast. And they, who with their leader Have conquered in the fight, Forever and forever Are clad in robes of white. 4 Oh, sweet and blessed country, The home of God's elect! Oh, sweet and blessed country, That eager hearts expect! In mercy, Jesus, bring us To that dear land of rest! You are, with God the Father And Spirit, ever blest.

What Was Your Vow and Vision

Author: Brian Wren Hymnal: Chalice Hymnal #177 (1995) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 What was your vow and vision, revealed and recognized, Christ, when you came to Jordan and asked to be baptized? Was there a sudden splendor of prophets, priests and kings, a wind that stirred the waters, a blur of mighty wings? 2 Was this God's call, the crowning of all you had become: "Go, show and tell my coming, my own, my chosen one?" Did scripture join with scripture, revealing in surprise the triumph of a servant rejected and despised? 3 We meet you at the water and ponder why and how, in hope that we may follow where God is going now, anointed by your Spirit, reborn, and energized, through deed and word proclaiming: "In Christ we are baptized!"
