O God of Exodus
With Miriam We Will Dance
Author: Janet Wootton, 1952- Meter: 6.6.8.4 D Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Exodus 15:20-21 Lyrics: 1 With Miriam we will dance
And celebrate the day
When sullen seas were swept apart
To show the way.
The dancers lend us grace
To turn from seas of fear
Towards the unknown wilderness -
For God is there.
2 With Mary we will wait
When even hope seems dead
When others rush down roads they say
We may not tread.
And waiting, strong and still
Through all our grief and pain
We hear the whisper of God's will -
We hear our name.
3 With Constance we will stand
For what we know is right
In answer to God's just demand
And searching sight,
Confronting each abuse
That strangles liberty,
God help us simply state the truth
That sets us free.
4 Made while, the human race
May answer to God's call
In dance and silence, truth and grace,
Embracing all.
This journey never ends,
God's promise calls us on,
Until our sisters, brothers, friends
May join the song.

How shall we sing salvation's song
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith (b. 1926) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Exodus 15 Lyrics: 1 How shall we sing salvation's song
when justice stands denied,
when greed and tyranny and wrong
prevail on every side?
Shall silent fall our voice of praise,
as on the willows hung
the harps that told of happier days
when songs of home were sung?
2 Yet still we sing as Moses sang
beside the parted wave,
when Canaan's skies in triumph rang
to God the strong to save.
We too in psalms like David sing,
as David's faith we claim,
who sang as shepherd-boy and king
of God's eternal name.
3 And we have blessings more than they
in Christ our risen Lord,
himself our Life and Truth and Way,
his Spirit on us poured.
For ours the cross where Jesus died,
the love that bore our sins;
to him, enthroned and glorified,
salvation's song begins. Topics: Blessing; Jesus Names and images for; Justice; Justice and Peace; Music and Song Used With Tune: LLANGARRON

For Your Wise, Creating Spirit
Author: Mary Nelson Keithahn Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Exodus 15 First Line: For your wise, creating Spirit, Lyrics: 1 For your wise, creating Spirit,
blessing us in countless ways,
and your Living Word of mercy,
God, we offer you our praise.
From the waters of creation,
you brought forth a fertile land,
peopled it with men and women
meant to live by your command.
2 When in Noah’s time, we faltered,
you, with mercy and with love,
flooded us with tears of sorrow,
sent a rainbow and a dove.
And when we were slaves in Egypt,
each one longing to be free,
you led Moses on a pathway
through the waters of the sea.
3 When we wandered in the desert,
you showed us a flowing spring,
quenched our thirst and fed us manna,
though we doubted everything.
When, at last, we saw the Jordan.
and beyond, the Promised Land,
Joshua helped us cross the river,
guided by your faithful hand.
4 When our people walked in darkness,
you sent Light into our gloom:
Jesus, nurtured in the waters
of his mother Mary’s womb.
He was baptized in the Jordan,
he turned water into wine,
washed the feet of his disciples,
all his deeds a holy sign.
5 At the font now, God, we gather
as the friends of Jesus do,
to baptize your child beloved,
into life begun anew.
By your Spirit bless this water,
bless this child that we now name,
bless the people who are present.
May we all your love proclaim.
