O Christ, the Healer
Author: Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #265 (1989) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: O Christ, the healer, we have come to pray for health Lyrics: 1 O Christ, the healer, we have come
to pray for health, to plead for friends.
How can we fail to be restored
when reached by love that never ends?
2 From every ailment flesh endures
our bodies clamor to be freed;
yet in our hearts we would confess
that wholeness is our deepest need.
3 How strong, O Lord, are our desires,
how weak our knowledge of ourselves!
Release in us those healing truths
unconscious pride resists or shelves.
4 In conflicts that destroy our health
we recognize the world's disease;
our common life declares our ills.
Is there no cure, O Christ, for these?
5 Grant that we all, made one in faith,
in your community may find
the wholeness that, enriching us,
shall reach the whole of humankind. Topics: Christ's Gracious Life Life and Teaching; Healing; Jesus Christ; Penitence; Service Music Prayer Responses Languages: English Tune Title: ERHALT UNS HERR

The Glory of These Forty Days
Author: St. Gregory the Great, ca. 540-604; Maurice F. Bell, 1862-1947 Hymnal: Glory and Praise (3rd. ed.) #273 (2015) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 The glory of these forty days
We celebrate with songs of praise;
For Christ, by whom all things were made,
Himself has fasted and has prayed.
2 Alone and fasting Moses saw
The loving God who gave the law;
And to Elijah, fasting, came
The steeds and chariots of flame.
3 So Daniel trained his mystic sight,
Delivered from the lions' might;
And John, the Bridegroom’s friend, became
The herald of Messiah's name.
4 Then grant that we like them be true,
Consumed in fast and pray'r with you;
Our spirits strengthen with your grace,
And give us joy to see your face.
5 O Father, Son, and Spirit blest,
To you be ev'ry pray'r addressed;
Who are in threefold Name adored,
From age to age, the only Lord. Topics: The Liturgical Year Ash Wednesday; The Liturgical Year Lent (Sundays and Weekdays) Scripture: Exodus 19:20 Languages: English Tune Title: ERHALT UNS, HERR

Let me your child and heir remain.

The Law of God Is Good and Wise
Author: Matthias Loy, 1828-1915 Hymnal: Christian Worship (1993) #287 (1993) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 The law of God is good and wise;
It sets his will before our eyes,
Shows us the way of righteousness,
But dooms to death when we transgress.
2 The law is good, but since the fall
Its holiness condemns us all;
It dooms us for our sins to die
And has no pow'r to justify.
3 Its light of holiness imparts
The knowledge of our sinful hearts
That we may see our lost estate
And seek relief before too late.
4 To Jesus we for refuge flee,
Who from the curse has set us free,
And humbly worship at his throne,
Saved by his grace through faith alone. Topics: Word of God; Word of God Languages: English Tune Title: ERHALT UNS, HERR

Take Up Your Cross
Author: Charles W. Everest, 1814-1877 Hymnal: Lift Up Your Hearts #326 (2013) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Take up your cross, the Savior said Lyrics: 1 Take up your cross, the Savior said,
if you would my disciple be;
take up your cross with willing heart,
and humbly follow after me.
2 Take up your cross, let not its weight
fill your weak spirit with alarm;
Christ's strength shall bear your spirit up
and brace your heart and nerve your arm.
3 Take up your cross, heed not the shame,
and let your foolish heart be still;
the Lord for you accepted death
upon a cross, on Calvary's hill.
4 Take up your cross, then, in Christ's strength,
and calmly every danger brave:
it guides you to abundant life
and leads to victory o'er the grave. Topics: The Cross; Discipleship; Perseverance; Walk with God Scripture: Matthew 16:24-28 Languages: English Tune Title: ERHALT UNS, HERR

The Law of God is Good and Wise
Author: Matthias Loy, 1828-1915 Hymnal: Lutheran Worship #329 (1982) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 The Law of God is good and wise
And sets his will before our eyes,
Shows us the way of righteousness,
And dooms to death when we transgress.
2 Its light of holiness imparts
The knowledge of our sinful hearts
That we may see our lost estate
And seek escape before too late.
3 To those who help in Christ have found
And would in works of love abound
It shows what deeds are his delight
And should be done as good and right.
4 The men the offered help disdain
And wilfully in sin remain,
Its terror in their ear resounds
And keeps their wickedness in bounds.
5 The Law is good; but since the fall
Its holiness condemns us all;
It dooms us for our sin to die
And has no pow'r to justify.
6 To Jesus we for refuge flee,
Who from the curse has set us free,
And humbly worship at his throne,
Saved by his grace through faith alone.
