O changeless Christ, for ever new

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith (b. 1926) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 5 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 10:19-20 Lyrics: 1 O changeless Christ, for ever new, who walked our earthly ways, still draw our hearts as once you drew the hearts of other days. 2 As once you spoke by plain and hill or taught by shore and sea, so be today our teacher still, O Christ of Galilee. 3 As wind and storm their Master heard and his command fulfilled, may troubled hearts receive your word, the tempest-tossed be stilled. 4 And as of old to all who prayed your healing hand was shown, so be your touch upon us laid, unseen but not unknown. 5 In broken bread, in wine outpoured, your new and living way proclaim to us, O risen Lord, O Christ of this our day. 6 O changeless Christ, till life is past your blessing still be given; then bring us home, to taste at last the timeless joys of heaven.

Let all creation dance

Author: Brian Arthur Wren, 1936- Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.4.4 Appears in 5 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 10:19-25 Lyrics: 1 Let all creation dance in energies sublime, as order turns with chance, unfolding space and time, for nature's art in glory grows, and newly shows God's mind and heart. 2 God's breath each force unfurls, igniting from a spark expanding starry swirls, with whirlpools dense and dark. Though moon and sun seem mindless things, each orbit sings: 'Your will be done.' 3 Our own amazing earth, with sunlight, cloud and storms, and life's abundant growth in lovely shapes and forms, is made for praise, a fragile whole, and from its soul heaven's music plays. 4 Lift heart and soul and voice: in Christ all praises meet and nature shall rejoice as all is made complete. In hope be strong, all life befriend and kindly tend creation's song.

The Saviour Is Risen

Author: Frans Mikael Franzen Meter: 6.5.6.5.6.5.6.5.6.5.6.5.6.4 Appears in 5 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 10:20 Lyrics: 1 The Saviour is risen, Light bursts from the tomb; The living fulfillment Of Scripture is come. Adored by the angels, The Victor comes forth To claim for His kingdom The ransomed on earth. The seal has been broken, The stone rolled away, And fled are the watchers In fear and dismay; Hell trembles before Him. Hallelujah. 2 Light grappled with darkness, Death wrestled with life; Now light comes triumphant From out the dread strife. While death lieth vanquished, Hope kindles again The torch of the faithful To shine among men. Ye sorrowing women Who hither have sped, Why seek ye the living To-day 'mongst the dead? For Jesus is risen. Hallelujah. 3 Now God in His heaven And man are at one, The grave is a pathway, Through Christ, to the throne. Ye friends that are bending In grief at the cross, Now lift your heads gladly, Ye suffered no loss. O flock, scattered widely, Return to the fold: Thy Shepherd still liveth, And now as of old He leadeth thee Godward. Hallelujah. 4 'Mid storms and upheavals His Church stands secure. The truth of His gospel Shall ever endure. Lo! unto all peoples His message shall speed, Proclaiming 'mid turmoil The Lord's mighty deed, Proclaiming the Saviour Who died for all men, And, having arisen, Now liveth again, Firstfruits of the sleeping. Hallelujah. 5 Then weep not, ye faithful, Yield not to despair: The night soon is over, The day shall appear. Though earth shall embrace you When death lays you low, The seed of His sowing To harvests will grow; And soon shall the Sower Return to His field With angels to gather Its heavenly yield, From evil tares severed. Hallelujah. Amen.
