Author: Ian Masson Fraser (b. 1917) Meter: 6.7.6.7 D Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Luke 15:20-24 Lyrics: 1 Forgiveness is your gift,
both cleansing and renewing,
to catch us when we drift,
our base desires pursuing;
and hug us back to life
and bring us to a feast
where all will celebrate
the life your love released.
2 Your grace goes out to meet
the sinful and the doubting,
your arms and dancing feet
speak louder than all shouting:
O God, how great your love
which takes us empty in,
and, with our worth unproved,
lets better life begin. Topics: Life in Christ Christ Incarnate - Public Ministry; Forgiveness; God in grace and mercy; Jesus Teaching Used With Tune: SOLAS AN T'SAOGHAIL

O God, Our Creator, You Work Every Day
Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Luke 15:11-32 Lyrics: O God, our Creator, you work every day:
A potter, you form us, your people, like clay.
A shepherd, you guide us and seek out the lost.
A parent, you love us, not counting the cost.
Christ Jesus, how rough were your hard-working hands!
You labored among us; our God understands!
Bless workers who struggle, their families to feed;
Bless those who face hardship, oppression, or greed.
Lord, some live among us who need constant care,
Whose work is to make us more humbly aware.
They teach us the best of your lessons, by far:
It’s not what we do, Lord, you love who we are!
We’re baptized! Your Spirit gives new work to do,
That we, through our serving, may glorify you.
Each person’s vocation, each calling, has worth
As you send us out to bring Christ’s love on earth.
