Come, know my joy, the Maker says

Author: Andrew Donaldson, 1951- Hymnal: TBP1997 #788 (1997) First Line: "Come, know my joy," the Maker says Lyrics: 1 "Come, know my joy," the Maker says and pours out works of power that sear the sense, defy the mind and fill the soul with awe, and we with open mouth receive God's gifts with infant need, and, sight unfocussed, scarce perceive Love's presence as we feed. 2 The feast we join is long begun; God bids us welcome here to name and use the sovereign gifts within our human care. With God's own joy some seem to soar, a fierce and holy flame; some gifts are thorns we scarce endure to touch, of face, or name. 3 "Come, seek my face,"the Giver says, "with heart and soul and strength; let fear give way to love; come, step upon the waves of faith." Dear Giver, Gift, we seek your face: you share our thorn, our scar. We learn your joy when by your grace we share the gift we are. 4 "Come, learn of me," the Servant says and multiplies a feast of loaves and fish, of bread and wine, transforming every guest. "Come," says the Host, "from west and east bring gifts to share– come eat!– none lost or wasted when God's feast of joy, will be complete."

Where is death's sting

Author: Godfrey Fox Bradby, 1863-c. 1929 Hymnal: TBP1997 #790 (1997) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 First Line: Where is death's sting? We were not born to die Lyrics: 1 Where is death's sting? We were not born to die, nor only for the life beyond the grave; all that is beautiful in earth and sky, all skill, all knowledge, all the powers we have, are of your giving, and in them we view no dust and ashes, but a part of you. 2 Laughter is yours, the laughter free from scorn, and yours the smile upon a cheerful face: yours, too, the tears, when love for love must mourn, and death brings silence for a little space. You give to us and do not take away: the parting is but here, and for a day. 3 Fullness of life, in body, mind and soul; "Who saves their life shall lose it," you have said: a great adventure with a glorious goal; nothing that lives in you is ever dead: brave living here, and then, beyond the grave, more life and more adventure for the brave.
