Heavenly hosts in ceaseless worship
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith (born 1926) Hymnal: Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) #570 (1987) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Heavenly hosts in ceaseless worship
'Holy, holy, holy!' cry;
'He who is, who was and will be,
God almighty, Lord most high.'
Praise and honour, power and glory,
be to him who reigns alone!
we, with all his hands have fashioned,
fall before the Father's throne.
2 All creation, all redemption,
join to sing the saviour's worth;
Lamb of God whose blood has bought us,
kings and priests, to reign on earth.
Wealth and wisdom, power and glory,
honour, might, dominion, praise,
now be his from all his creatures
and to everlasting days! Topics: God's Church The Church Triumphant, Heaven; Glory and Honour; The Creation; Last Sunday after Pentecost Citizens of Heaven Scripture: Revelation 4, 5 Languages: English Tune Title: BLAENWERN

What a friend we have in Jesus

What a friend we have in Jesus
What a friend we have in Jesus
Author: Joseph Medlicott Scriven, 1819-86 Hymnal: Together in Song #590 (1999) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 What a friend we have in Jesus,
all our sins and griefs to bear,
what a privilege to carry
everything to God in prayer:
O what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
all because we do not carry
everything to God in prayer.
2 Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged:
take it to the Lord in prayer.
Can we find a friend so faithful
who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness;
take it to the Lord in prayer.
3 Are we weak and heavy-laden,
cumbered with a load of care?
Jesus is our only refuge:
take it to the Lord in prayer;
Do your friends despise, forsake you?
Take it to the Lord in prayer;
in his arms he'll take and shield you,
you will find a solace there. Topics: Assurance; Consolation; Devotion; Funerals; Jesus Christ Friend and Companion; Prayer; Temptation Scripture: 1 Peter 5:6-11 Languages: English Tune Title: BLAENWERN

Lord, You in Your perfect wisdom
Author: Timothy Rees, 1874-1939 Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook #610 (2004) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Lord, You in Your perfect wisdom
times and seasons all arrange,
working out Your changeless purpose
in a world of ceaseless change;
You did form our ancient nation,
guiding it through all the days,
to unfold in it Your purpose
to Your glory and Your praise.
2 To our shores remote, benighted,
barrier of the western waves,
tidings in Your love You sent us,
tidings of the cross that saves.
Saints and heroes strove and suffered
here Your gospel to proclaim;
we, the heirs of their endeavour,
tell the honour of their name.
3 Still Your ancient purpose standing
every change and chance above;
still Your ancient Church remaining,
witness to Your changeless love.
Grant us vision, Lord, and courage
to fulfil Your work begun;
in the Church and in the nation,
King of kings, Your will be done. Languages: English Tune Title: BLAENWERN
Lord, You in Your perfect wisdom
Glorious Things of You Are Spoken
Author: John Newton, 1725-1807 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Worship #647 (2006) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of you are spoken,
Zion, city of our God!
He whose word cannot be broken
formed you for his own abode.
On the Rock of Ages founded,
what can shake your sure repose?
With salvation's walls surrounded,
you may smile at all your foes.
2 See, the streams of living waters,
springing from eternal love,
well supply your sons and daughters,
and all fear of want remove.
Who can faint, while such a river
ever will their thirst assuage?
Grace which, like the Lord, the giver,
never fails from age to age.
3 Round each habitation hov'ring,
see the cloud and fire appear
for a glory and a cov'ring,
showing that the Lord is near.
Thus deriving from their banner
light by night and shade by day,
safe they feed upon the manna
which God gives them on their way.
4 Savior, since of Zion's city
I through grace a member am,
let the world deride or pity,
I will glory in your name.
Fading are the world's vain pleasures,
all their boasted pomp and show;
solid joys and lasting treasures
none but Zion's children know.

Lord, We Hear Your Word

you have spoken– we rejoice:
words of love and life and freedom–
help us make their truth our choice!
Now in holy celebration
for your Word we worship you;
spoken, written, known in Jesus,
ours today to prove anew.
2 May we hear with understanding,
by your Spirit taught and led;
may the springs of all our being
by your Living Word be fed;
may our hearts accept with meekness
all the grace your light makes known;
may obedience mark our footsteps
till we make each word our own!
3 You have spoken– yours the fullness,
ours the wealth of this your Word:
debtors, then, as living letters
we must make your Gospel heard!
By your Spirit’s power transform us;
shed your saving Light abroad
till our lives by love in action
show our world the truth of God!

Mountain Brook with Rushing Waters
Author: William W. Reid, Jr. Hymnal: Chalice Hymnal #690 (1995) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Mountain brook with rushing waters,
eagle perched in lofty tree,
flowering hillside in the springtime,
white-tailed deer alert and free!
Beauty, beauty all around us!
Jubilate! Sing for joy!
Help us, God, preserve earth’s splendor
for tomorrow’s world to see.
2 Pure the water freshly flowing
toward its ocean destiny,
clean the air of God’s creation,
rich the soil, the mine, the sea.
"Earth is good!" God’s word proclaimed it.
Jubilate! Sing for joy!
Save us, God, from wasteful living,
from pollution’s tragedy.
3 Waving fields of wheat and barley,
giant apples juicy red,
cattle grazing in the pasture;
by God’s bounty we are fed!
Well supplied the world around us!
Jubilate! Sing for joy!
May no greed or warring madness
scorch the earth or rob our bread.
4 Keep us faithful in the struggle
to conserve earth’s threatened store
as we fight to save the forest,
clean the stream, protect the shore.
God and humans work together,
Jubilate! Sing for joy!
Partners working till as stewards
we can say, "Earth’s good!" once more. Topics: God's World Care of the Earth; Care of the Earth; Nature Languages: English Tune Title: BLAENWERN
