Take Up Your Cross
Author: Charles W. Everest, 1814-1877 Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #511 (2018) 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 Calv'ry's hill.
4 Take up your cross, then, in Christ's strength,
and calmly ev'ry danger brave:
it guides you to abundant life
and leads to vict'ry o'er the grave. Topics: Christian Life; Crown of Life; Obedience; Self-Denial; Suffering and Deliverance Scripture: Matthew 16:24 Languages: English Tune Title: ERHALT UNS, HERR

for you are Lord of lords alone;
defend your holy church, that we
may sing your praise eternally.

and lead us out of death to life. Topics: Word of God; Kingdom of God; Trust, Guidance; Unity Languages: English Tune Title: ERHALT UNS, HERR

The Glory of These Forty Days
Author: Gregory the Great, c.540-604; Maurice F. Bell, 1862-1947 Hymnal: RitualSong #545 (1996) 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 prayer with you;
Our spirits strengthen with your grace,
And give us joy to see your face.

O Christ, the Healer
Author: Fred Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Hymnal: Journeysongs (3rd ed.) #546 (2012) Meter: 8.8.8.8 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 ev'ry 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: Care of the Sick; Healing; Rites of the Church Rite of Anointing (Care of the Sick) Languages: English Tune Title: ERHALT UNS, HERR

If you would my disciple be;
Deny yourself, the world forsake,
And humbly follow after me.
2 Take up your cross, be not ashamed!
Let not disgrace your spirit fill!
For God himself endured to die
Upon a cross, on Calvary's hill.
3 Take up your cross, which gives you strength,
Which makes your trembling spirit brave:
'Twill guide you to a better home
And lead to vict'ry o'er the grave.
4 Take up your cross, and follow Christ,
Nor think till death to lay it down;
For only they who bear the cross
May hope to wear the glorious crown.

When in the Hour of Utmost Need
Author: Paul Eber; Miss Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #575 (1926) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 When in the hour of utmost need
We know not where to look for aid;
When days and nights of anxious thought
Nor help nor counsel yet have brought:
2 Then this our comfort is alone,
That we may meet before Thy throne,
And cry, O faithful God, to Thee
For rescue from our misery:
3 To Thee may raise our hearts and eyes,
Repenting sore with bitter sighs,
And seek Thy pardon for our sin,
And respite from our griefs within.
4 For Thou hast promised graciously
To hear all those who cry to Thee,
Through Him whose Name alone is great,
Our Saviour and our Advocate.
5 And thus we come, O God, to-day,
And all our woes before Thee lay;
For tried, afflicted, lo! we stand,
Peril and foes on every hand.
6 Ah, hide not for our sins Thy face;
Absolve us through Thy boundless grace;
Be with us in our anguish still,
Free us at last from every ill
7 That so with all our hearts we may
To Thee our glad thanksgiving pay,
And walk obedient to Thy Word,
And now and ever praise Thee, Lord.
Amen.
