Now to Your Table Spread
Author: Shirley Erena Murray Meter: 6.6.12.4.4.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: The Church at Worship Holy Communion; liturgical Communion Songs Lyrics: 1 Now to your table spread
we come, each one in faith
that you alone provide the words of life and death:
in wine and bread,
on promised food
we find your loving heart, O God.
2 Hands of the world stretch out
your mystery to touch
in longing to believe a truth beyond our reach,
to sing in joy,
to cry in grief,
to know your meaning for our life.
3 Here is our common wealth
in sharing what is good,
as though all humankind around one table stood,
this bread to break,
this wine to taste:
one people in the name of Christ.
Used With Tune: LOVE UNKNOWN

Christ, of All My Hopes the Ground
Author: Ralph Wardlaw Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 173 hymnals Topics: Post-Communion Lyrics: 1 Christ, of all my hopes the ground,
Christ, the spring of all my joy,
still in you may I be found,
still for you my pow'rs employ,
still for you my pow'rs employ.
2 Let your love my heart inflame;
keep your fear before my sight;
be your praise my highest aim;
be your smile my chief delight,
be your smile my chief delight.
3 Fountain of o'erflowing grace,
freely from your fullness give;
till I close my earthly race,
may I prove it "Christ to live,"
may I prove it "Christ to live."
4 Firmly trusting in your blood,
nothing shall my heart confound;
safely I shall pass the flood,
safely reach Immanuel's ground,
safely reach Immanuel's ground.
5 Thus, O thus, an entrance give
to the land of cloudless sky;
having known it "Christ to live,"
let me know it "gain to die,"
let me know it "gain to die."
Scripture: Philippians 1:21 Used With Tune: HENDON Text Sources: Mod.

Deck Yourself, My Soul, with Gladness
Author: Johann Franck; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Appears in 119 hymnals Topics: The Church at Worship Holy Communion; liturgical Communion Songs Lyrics: 1 Deck yourself, my soul, with gladness,
leave the gloomy haunts of sadness,
come into the daylight’s splendour,
there with joy your praises render
unto Christ, whose grace unbounded
has this wondrous banquet founded;
high o’er all the heavens reigning,
yet to dwell with you is deigning.
2 Now I come before you lowly,
filled with joy most deep and holy,
as with trembling awe and wonder
on your mighty works I ponder;
how, by mystery surrounded,
depth no one has ever sounded,
none may dare to pierce unbidden
secrets that with you are hidden.
3 Sun, which all my living brightens;
Light, which heart and soul enlightens;
Joy, most sweet and spirit freeing;
Fount, the source of all my being;
at your feet I cry, my Maker,
let me be a fit partaker
of this blessed food from heaven,
for our good your glory given.
4 Jesus, bread of life, I pray you
let me gladly here obey you;
never to my hurt invited,
be your love with love requited;
from this banquet let me measure,
God, how vast and deep its treasure;
through the gifts you here now give me,
as your guest in heaven receive me. Used With Tune: SCHMÜCKE DICH
