Lord, Teach Us How to Pray Aright
Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #261 (1985) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Luke 15:20 Lyrics: 1 Lord, teach us how to pray aright
with rev'rence and with fear;
though weak and sinful in thy sight,
we may, we must draw near.
2 We perish if we cease from prayer:
O grant us power to pray;
and when to meet thee we prepare,
Lord, meet us by the way.
3 Give deep humility, the sense
of godly sorrow give;
a strong dsiring confidence
to hear thy voice and live;
4 faith in the only sacrifice
that can for sin atone,
to cast our hopes, to fix our eyes
on Christ, and Christ alone:
5 patience to watch, and wait, and weep
though mercy long delay;
courage, our fainting souls to keep
and trust thee though thou slay:
6 give these--and then thy will be done;
thus, strengthened with all might,
we by thy Spirit and thy Son,
shall pray, and pray aright.

Thine arm, O Lord, in days of old
Author: Edward Hayes Plumptre, 1821-1891 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #671 (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Scripture: Luke 15:13 Lyrics: 1 Thine arm, O Lord, in days of old
was strong to heal and save;
it triumphed o'er disease and death,
o'er darkness and the grave:
to thee they went, the blind, the dumb,
the palsied and the lame,
the outcasts with their grievances,
the sick with fevered frame.
2 And lo, thy touch brought life and health,
gave speech and strength and sight;
and youth renewed and frenzy calmed
owned thee, the Lord of light:
and now, O Lord, be near to bless,
almighty as before,
in crowded street, by restless couch,
as by that ancient shore.
3 Be thou our great deliv'rer still,
thou Lord of life and death;
restore and quicken, soothe and bless,
with thine almighty breath:
to hands that work, and eyes that see,
give wisdom's heav'enly lore,
that whole and sick, and weak and strong,
may praise thee evermore. Topics: Healing; Year A Second Sunday Before Lent; Year C Proper 17 Languages: English Tune Title: ST MATTHEW

"Take me"
Author: Ray Palmer Hymnal: Laudes Domini #290 (1888) Scripture: Luke 15:18 First Line: Take me , O my Father, take me! Lyrics: 1 Take me, O my Father, take me!
Take me, save me, through thy Son;
That which thou wouldst have me, make me
Let thy will in me be done.
Long from thee my footsteps straying,
Thorny proved the way I trod;
Weary come I new, and praying--
Take me to thy love, my God!
2 Fruitless years with grief recalling,
Humbly I confess my sin;
At thy feet, O Father, falling,
To thy household take me in.
Freely now to thee I proffer
This relenting heart of mine;
Freely life and soul I offer--
Gift unworthy love like thine.
3 Once the world's Redeemer, dying,
Bare our sins upon the tree;
On that sacrifice relying,
Now I look in hope to thee;
Father, take me! all forgiving,
Fold me to thy loving breast;
In thy love for ever living,
I must be for ever blest! Topics: Assess to God; Atonement Accepted Languages: English Tune Title: GAYLORD
