This is a day of new beginnings -- our God is making all things new. [Alternative text (v. 4) for Holy Communion:] In faith we'll gather round the table to show and share what love can do.

Church of God, Elect and Glorious

Author: James E. Seddon, 1915-1983 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 21 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 1:7 Lyrics: 1 Church of God, elect and glorious, holy nation, chosen race; called as God's own special people, royal priests and heirs of grace: know the purpose of your calling, show to all his mighty deeds; tell of love which knows no limits, grace that meets all human needs. 2 God has called you out of darkness into his most marvelous light; brought his truth to life within you, turned your blindness into sight. Let your light so shine around you that God's name is glorified; and all find fresh hope and purpose in Christ Jesus crucified. 3 Once you were an alien people, strangers to God's heart of love; but he brought you home in mercy, citizens of heaven above. Let his love flow out to others, let them feel the Father's care; that they too may know his welcome and his countless blessings share. 4 Church of God, elect and holy, be the people he intends; strong in faith and swift to answer each command your Master sends: royal priests, fulfill your calling through your sacrifice and prayer; give your lives in joyful service– sing his praise, his love declare.
