When Jesus Came to Jordan
Author: Fred Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Hymnal: Worship (4th ed.) #456 (2011) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Hymnal Title: Worship (4th ed.) 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. Topics: Baptism of the Lord Languages: English Tune Title: MERLE'S TUNE

Blessed Be the God of Israel
Author: Michael Perry, 1942-1996 Hymnal: Worship and Rejoice #158 (2003) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Hymnal Title: Worship and Rejoice Lyrics: 1 Blessed be the God of Israel,
who comes to set us free,
who visits and redeems us,
and grants us liberty.
The prophets spoke of mercy,
of freedom and release;
God shall fulfill the promise
to bring our people peace.
2 Now from the house of David
a child of grace has come,
a Savior who will lead us
to our eternal home.
Before him goes the herald,
forerunner in the way,
the prophet of salvation,
the harbinger of day.
3 On all by death imprisoned
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;
O bless our God and Savior
with songs that never cease! Scripture: Isaiah 61:1-2 Languages: English Tune Title: MERLE'S TUNE
Blessed Be the God of Israel
How Lovely, Lord, How Lovely
Author: Arlo D. Duba, 1929- Hymnal: Worship and Rejoice #545 (2003) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Hymnal Title: Worship and Rejoice 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
within 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.
Scripture: Psalm 42:1-4 Languages: English Tune Title: MERLE'S TUNE
How Lovely, Lord, How Lovely
The World Is Full of Stories
Author: Alan Gaunt, 1935- Hymnal: Worship and Rejoice #558 (2003) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Hymnal Title: Worship and Rejoice Lyrics: 1 The world is full of stories,
of stories that have passed
to us along the ages;
great stories that still last,
to tell of human feelings
drawn deep from heart and mind,
more true than fact: their meaning
the surest we can find.
2 The world is full of stories,
new stories people tell,
and young and old come under
the storyteller's spell
which stirs imagination
and opens wide our eyes
to duty and conviction,
to wonder and surprise.
3 The world is full of stories
that capture and enthral;
but joyful faith discovers
that one transcends them all:
God's love as told in Jesus,
who shared our life on earth,
and human recreation
beginning at his birth.
4 It tells us of the anguish
God's love was bound to bear,
to conquer death and evil
and fathom our despair.
As we repeat the story,
hope comes to life and thrives,
to make the love of Jesus
the story of our lives. Scripture: Acts 24:10-21 Languages: English Tune Title: MERLE'S TUNE
