How Lovely, Lord, How Lovely (Psalm 84)

Author: Arlo Duba Hymnal: Lift Up Your Hearts #46 (2013) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Hymnal Title: Lift Up Your Hearts First Line: How lovely, Lord, how lovely Lyrics: 1 How lovely, Lord, how lovely is your abiding place; my soul is longing, fainting, to feast upon your grace. The sparrow finds a shelter, a place to build her nest, and so your temple calls us with in its walls to rest. 2 In your blest courts to worship, O God, a single day is better than a thousand if I from you should stray. I’d rather keep the entrance and claim you as my Lord than revel in the riches the ways of sin afford. 3 A sun and shield forever are you, O Lord Most High; you shower us with blessings; no good will you deny. The saints, your grace receiving, from strength to strength shall go, and from their life shall rivers of blessing overflow.

When Jesus Came to Jordan (Cuando al Jordán fue Cristo)

Author: Fred Pratt Green, 1903-2000; Alberto Merubia, 1919-2013 Hymnal: Santo, Santo, Santo #113 (2019) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Hymnal Title: Santo, Santo, Santo Lyrics: 1 When Jesus came to Jordan To be baptized by John, He did not come for pardon, But as the sinless One. He came to share repentance With all who mourn their sins, To speak the vital sentence With which good news begins. 2 He came to share temptation, Our utmost woe and loss, For us and our salvation To die upon the cross. So when the Dove descended On him, the Son of Man, The hidden years had ended, The age of grace began. 3 Come, Holy Spirit, aid us To keep the vows we make; This very day invade us, And ev'ry bondage break. Come, give our lives direction, The gift we covet most: To share the resurrection That leads to Pentecost. --- 1 Cuando al Jordán fue Cristo y Juan le bautizó, no fue perdón pidiendo, pues él jamás pecó. Con los arrepentidos se identificó; les trajo buenas nuevas, y el reino se inició. 2 Él vino a ser tentado, que es nestra condición; sobre una cruz clavado nos trajo salvación. Y cuando la Paloma del cielo descendió, ocultos años cesan, la gracia comenzó. 3 Ayúdanos los votos que hacemos a cumplir. Los yogos que tenemos, oh ven tú a destruir. ¡Desciende y danos vida, que nuestro anhelo es, tras la Resurrección disfrutar Pentecostés!

I Sought the Wood in Summer

Author: Willa Cather, 1893-1947 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #328 (1993) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Hymnal Title: Singing the Living Tradition Lyrics: 1 I sought the wood in summer when every twig was green; the rudest boughs were tender, and buds were pink between. Light-fingered aspens trembled in fitful sun and shade, and daffodils were golden in every starry glade. 2 “How frail a thing is Beauty,” I said, “when every breath she gives the vagrant summer but swifter woos her death. For this the star dust troubles, for this have ages rolled: to deck the wood for bridal and slay her with the cold.” 3 I sought the wood in winter when every leaf was dead; behind the wind-whipped branches the winter sun was red. The birches, white and slender, in breathless marble stood, the brook, a white immortal, slept silent in the wood. 4 “How sure a thing is Beauty,” I cried. “No bolt can slay, nor wave nor shock despoil her, nor ravishers dismay. The granite hills are slighter, the sea more like to fail, behind the rose the planet, the Law behind the veil.” Topics: Humanist Teachings Beauty, Truth, and Goodness; Seasons and Cycles; Summer; Winter Languages: English Tune Title: MERLE'S TUNE

Blest be the God of Israel

Author: Michael Perry Hymnal: The Book of Praise #752 (1997) Meter: 13.13.13.13 Hymnal Title: The Book of Praise First Line: Blest be the God of Israel, who comes to set us free Lyrics: 1 Blessed be the God of Israel, who comes to set us free, he visits and redeems us, he grants us liberty. The prophets spoke of mercy, of freedom and release; God shall fulfill his promise and bring the gift of peace. 2 Now from the house of David a child of grace has come, a Saviour who will lead us to our eternal home. Before him goes his herald, forerunner in the way, the prophet of salvation, the messinger of day. 3 On those who live in darkness the sun begins to rise, the dawning of forgiveness upon the sinner's eyes; to guide the feet of pilgrims along the paths of peace. Oh bless our God and Saviour with songs that never cease!
