Church of God, Elect and Glorious
Author: James E. Seddon, 1915-1983 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 21 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Church of God, elect and glorious,
Holy nation, chosen race;
Called as God's own special people,
Royal priests and heirs of grace:
Know the purpose of your calling,
Show to all his mighty deeds;
Tell of love that knows no limits,
Grace that meets all human needs.
2 God has called you out of darkness
Into his most marv'lous light;
Brought his truth to life within you,
Turned your blindness into sight.
Let your light so shine around you
That God's name is glorified;
And all find fresh hope and purpose
In Christ Jesus crucified.
3 Once you were an alien people,
Strangers to God's heart of love;
But he brought you home in mercy,
Citizens of heav'n above.
Let his love flow out to others,
Let them feel the Father's care;
That they too may know his welcome
And his countless blessings share.
4 Church of God, elect and holy,
Be the people he intends;
Strong in faith and swift to answer
Each command your Master sends:
Royal priests, fulfill your calling
Through your sacrifice and prayer;
Give your lives in joyful service
Sing his praise, his love declare. Topics: Church Used With Tune: IN BABILONE

Light of Ages and of Nations
Author: Samuel Longfellow, 1819-1892 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 15 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Light of ages and of nations,
every race and every time
has received thine inspirations,
glimpses of thy truth sublime.
Always spirits in rapt vision
passed the heavenly veil within,
always hearts bowed in contrition
found salvation from their sin.
2 Reason’s noble aspiration truth
in growing clearness saw;
conscience spoke its condemnation,
or proclaimed eternal law.
While thine inward revelations
told thy saints their prayers were heard,
prophets to the guilty nations
spoke thine everlasting word.
3 Lo, that word abideth ever;
revelation is not sealed;
answering now to our endeavor,
truth and right are still revealed.
That which came to ancient sages,
Greek, Barbarian, Roman, Jew,
written in the soul’s deep pages,
shines today, forever new. Topics: Wisdom from the World's Religions Our Common Ground; Free and Responsible Search for Truth and Meaning; The Living Tradition; Nations; Reason and Science; Truth; World Community Used With Tune: IN BABILONE

Christ, You Call Us All to Service
Author: Joy F. Patterson, 1931- Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 6 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Christ, you call us all to service,
call us all who follow you;
plant in us a deep commitment
all your work and will to do.
Fire a passion for your justice,
in us kindle love of peace;
help us heal the brokenhearted,
to the captive bring release.
2 Teach us how to work together,
brothers, sisters, side by side,
equal partners in the struggle,
in the cause of truth allied.
To each one some gift is given,
man or woman, young or old;
help us use each skill and talent
your great purpose to unfold.
3 Let us be a servant people,
reconciling, ending strife,
seeking ways more just of sharing
and of ordering human life.
Fill us with a glowing vision
of this world as it should be;
send us forth to change that vision
into blest reality. Scripture: Acts 2:17-18 Used With Tune: IN BABILONE

As We Gather at Your Table
Author: Carl P. Daw Jr., b. 1944 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 27 hymnals Lyrics: 1 As we gather at your table,
as we listen to your word,
help us know, O God, your presence;
let our hearts and minds be stirred.
Nourish us with sacred story
till we claim it as our own;
teach us through this holy banquet
how to make Love’s vict'ry known.
2 Turn our worship into witness
in the sacrament of life;
send us forth to love and serve you,
bringing peace where there is strife.
Give us, Christ, your great compassion
to forgive as you forgave;
may we still behold your image
in the world you died to save.
3 Gracious Spirit, help us summon
other guests to share that feast
where triumphant Love will welcome
those who had been last and least.
There no more will envy blind us
nor will pride our peace destroy,
as we join with saints and angels
to repeat the sounding joy. Topics: Gathering; Gathering; Holy Communion; Justice, Peace; Word of God Used With Tune: IN BABILONE
