Swing Low, Sweet Chariot
Hymnal: HPP2007 #470 (2007) Meter: 10.8.10.8 with refrain Scripture: 2 Kings 2:11 First Line: I looked over Jordan, and what did I see Lyrics: Refrain:
Swing low, sweet chariot,
coming for to carry me home;
swing low, sweet chariot,
coming for to carry me home.
1 I looked over Jordan, and what did I see,
Coming for to carry me home?
A band of angels coming after me,
Coming for to carry me home. [Refrain]
2 If you get there before I do,
Coming for to carry me home;
Tell all my friends I’m coming too,
Coming for to carry me home. [Refrain]
3 I’m sometimes up, I'm sometimes down,
Coming for to carry me home:
But still my soul feels heavenly bound,
Coming for to carry me home. [Refrain]
4 The brightest day that I can say,
Coming for to carry me home;
When Jesus washed my sins away,
Coming for to carry me home. [Refrain]

There's a Wideness in God's Mercy
Author: Frederick W. Faber, 1814-1863 Hymnal: HPP2007 #45 (2007) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Scripture: 1 Chronicles 21:13 First Line: There's a wideness in God's mercy Lyrics: 1 There's a wideness in God's mercy,
Like the wideness of the sea;
There's a kindness in His justice,
Which is more than liberty.
There is no place where earth's sorrows
Are more felt than up in heaven;
There is no place where earth's failings
Have such kindly judgment giv'n.
2 For the love of God is broader
Than the measure of man's mind;
And the heart of the Eternal
Is most wonderfully kind.
If our love were but more simple,
We should take Him at His word;
And our lives would be all sunshine
In the sweetness of our Lord.
3 Troubled souls, why will you scatter
Like a crowd of frightened sheep?
Foolish hearts, why will you wander
From a love so true and deep?
There is welcome for the sinner
And more graces for the good;
There is mercy with the Savior,
There is healing in His blood.
Amen.

We Give Thee but Thine Own
Author: William W. How, 1823-1897 Hymnal: HPP2007 #438 (2007) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Scripture: 1 Chronicles 29:14 Lyrics: 1 We give Thee but Thine own,
Whate'er the gift may be;
All that we have is Thine alone,
A trust, O Lord, from Thee.
2 May we Thy bounties thus
As stewards true receive,
And gladly, as Thou blessest us,
To Thee our first fruits give.
3 To comfort and to bless,
To find a balm for woe,
To tend those lost in loneliness
Is angels' work below.
4 The captive to release,
To God the lost to bring,
To teach the way of life and peace -
It is a Christ-like thing.
5 And we believe Thy Word,
Though dim our faith may be.
Whate'er for Thine we do, O Lord,
We do it unto Thee.
Amen. Topics: Harvest; Offering; Responses; Stewardship; Thanksgiving; Service Languages: English Tune Title: SCHUMANN

All Things Are Yours
Author: Bryan Jeffery Leech, 1931- Hymnal: HPP2007 #447 (2007) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: 1 Chronicles 29:14 First Line: All things are Yours: we make that ture Lyrics: 1 All things are Yours: we make that true
When we return our gifts to You;
And so we give, and so we share,
In Christ's strong name expressing care.
2 "Give out of love," Your Word commands;
We are Your head, Your heart, Your hands.
Your Word you underscore with deeds
By using us to answer needs.
3 O what a joy to give, and then
Out of compassion give again.
You have no needs - though that be true,
The gifts we share are giv'n to You.

We Plow the Fields and Scatter
Author: Matthias Claudias, 1740-1815; Jane M. Campbell, 1817-1878 Hymnal: HPP2007 #284 (2007) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D with refrain Scripture: Ezra 3:11 Lyrics: 1 We plough the fields, and scatter
The good seed on the land,
But it is fed and watered
By God's almighty hand.
He sends the snow in winter,
The warmth to swell the grain,
The breezes and the sunshine,
And soft, refreshing rain.
Refrain:
All good gifts around us
Are sent from heav'n above;
Then thank the Lord,
O thank the Lord for all His love.
2 He only is the maker
Of all things near and far;
He paints the wayside flower,
He lights the evening star.
The winds and waves obey Him,
By Him the birds are fed;
Much more to us His children,
He gives our daily bread. [Refrain]
3 We thank Thee then, O Father,
For all things bright and good;
The seed-time and the harvest,
Our life, our health, our food.
Accept the gifts we offer,
For all Thy love imparts,
And, what Thou most desirest,
Our humble, thankful hearts. [Refrain]
Amen. Topics: Creation; Harvest; Providence; Seasons; Thanksgiving Languages: English Tune Title: DRESDEN
