Give rest, O Christ
Author: W. J. Birkbeck, 1869-1916 Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: Give rest, O Christ,
to thy servant with thy saints,
where sorrow and pain are no more;
neither sighing, but life everlasting.
Thou only art immortal,
the Creator and Maker of man;
and we are mortal, formed of the earth,
and unto earth shall we return;
for so thou didst ordain
when thou createdst me, saying:
'Dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.'
All we go down to the dust,
and, weeping o'er the grave we make our song:
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia.
Give rest, O Christ,
to thy servant with thy saints,
where sorrow and pain are no more;
neither sighing, but life everlasting. Topics: Funerals, Commemoration, Remembrance and All Souls Scripture: 1 Timothy 6:15-16 Used With Tune: CONTAKION OF THE DEAD Text Sources: Russian

How lovely is your dwelling-place
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 53 hymnals Lyrics: 1 How lovely is your dwelling-place,
O Lord of hosts, to me;
my thirsting soul longs eagerly
within your courts to be.
2 Beside your altars, Lord of all,
the swallows find a nest;
happy are those who dwell with you
and praise you without rest;
3 And happy those whose hearts are set
upon the pilgrim ways:
you are the water when they thirst,
their guide towards your face.
4 How blest are they that in your house
for ever give you praise:
one day with you is better spent
than thousands in dark ways.
5 The Lord will hold back no good thing
from those who justly live;
to all who trust, the Lord of hosts
will all his blessings give. Topics: Proper 13 Year A Scripture: Psalm 27:4 Used With Tune: HARINGTON Text Sources: Based on Psalm 84 in Scottish Psalter, 1650

I come with joy, a child of God
Author: Brian A. Wren, b. 1936 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 73 hymnals Lyrics: 1 I come with joy, a child of God,
forgiven, loved and free,
the life of Jesus to recall,
in love laid down for me.
2 I come with Christians far and near
to find, as all are fed,
the new community of love
in Christ's communion bread.
3 As Christ breaks bread, and bids us share,
each proud division ends.
The love that made us, makes us one,
and strangers now are friends.
4 The Spirit of the risen Christ,
unseen, but ever near,
is in such friendship better known,
alive among us here.
5 Together met, together bound
by all that God has done,
we'll go with joy, to give the world
the love that makes us one. Topics: Epiphany III Year A; Epiphany III Year B; Lent III Year C Scripture: 1 Corinthians 10:17 Used With Tune: ST BOTOLPH
I come with joy, a child of God
God is Love: let heav'n adore him
Author: Timothy Rees, 1874-1939 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 33 hymnals Lyrics: 1 God is Love: let heav'n adore him;
God is Love: let earth rejoice;
let creation sing before him,
and exalt him with one voice.
He who laid the earth's foundation,
he who spread the heav'ns above,
he who breathes through all creation,
he is Love, eternal Love.
2 God is Love: and he enfoldeth
all the world in one embrace;
with unfailing grasp he holdeth
every child of every race.
And when human hearts are breaking
under sorrow's iron rod,
then they find that selfsame aching
deep within the heart of God.
3 God is Love: and though with blindness
sin afflicts the souls of all,
God's eternal loving-kindness
holds and guides us when we fall.
Sin and death and hell shall never
o'er us final triumph gain;
God is Love, so Love for ever
o'er the universe must reign. Topics: Proper 13 Year C; Proper 19 Year A; Proper 21 Year C Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:54-57 Used With Tune: ALLELUIA
God is Love: let heav'n adore him

come in thy radiance from above,
and shed the Holy Spirit's ray
on all we think or do to-day.
3 Teach us to work with all our might;
put Satan's fierce assaults to flight;
turn all to good that seems most ill;
help us our calling to fulfil.
4 O joyful be the livelong day,
our thoughts as pure as morning ray,
our faith like noonday's glowing height,
our souls undimmed by shades of night.

all praise, eternal Son, to thee,
whom with the Spirit we adore
for ever and for evermore. Topics: Morning Scripture: Ecclesiastes 9:10 Used With Tune: SOLEMNIS HÆC FESTIVITAS Text Sources: tr. Hymns Ancient and Modern, 1904
