We Give You But Your Own
Author: William W. How Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 478 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 61:1-6 Lyrics: 1 We give you but your own,
in any gifts we bring;
all that we have is yours alone,
a trust from you, our King.
2 May we your bounties thus
as stewards true receive,
and gladly, Lord, as you bless us,
to you 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,
the lost to God to bring,
to teach the way of life and peace -
it is a Christ-like thing.
5 And we believe your word,
though dim our faith may be.
Whate'er we do for you, O Lord,
we do it gratefully. Topics: Stewardship and Service; Following Christ; Service music--Offering responses; Stewardship; Stewardship Used With Tune: SCHUMANN

To heav'n ascend:

For evermore.

And, glorious with the saints in light,
For ever reigns.

Come, You Faithful, Raise the Strain
Author: John of Damascus,; John Mason Neale Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 379 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 61:3 First Line: Come, you faithful raise the strain Lyrics: 1 Come, you faithful, raise the strain
of triumphant gladness!
God has brought forth Israel
into joy from sadness,
loosed from Pharaoh’s bitter yoke
Jacob’s sons and daughters;
led them with unmoistened foot
through the Red Sea waters.
2 ’Tis the spring of souls today:
Christ has burst his prison,
and from three days’ sleep in death
as a sun has risen.
All the winter of our sins,
long and dark, is flying
from the Light, to whom we give
laud and praise undying.
3 Now the queen of seasons, bright
with the day of splendor,
with the royal feast of feasts
comes its joy to render;
comes to glad Jerusalem,
who with true affection
welcomes in unwearied strains
Jesus’ resurrection!
4 Neither could the gates of death,
nor the tomb’s dark portal,
nor the watchers, nor the seal
hold you as a mortal:
but today, among your own,
you appear, bestowing
your deep peace, which evermore
passes human knowing.

When God revealed his gracious name
Author: Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 200 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 61:3 Lyrics: 1 When God revealed his gracious name,
And changed my mournful state,
My raptures seemed a pleasing dream,
The grace appeared so great.
2 The world beheld the glorious change,
And did thy hand confess;
My tongue broke out in unknown strains,
And sung surprising grace.
3 The Lord can clear the darkest skies,
Can give us day for night;
Make drops of sacred sorrow rise
To rivers of delight.
4 Let those who sow in sadness wait
Till the fair harvest come:
They shall confess their sheaves are great,
And shout the blessings home. Topics: The Christian Life Honor and Influence; The Change Effected by Grace
