My Song Is Love Unknown
Author: Samuel Crossman Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.4.4 Appears in 127 hymnals Lyrics: 1 My song is love unknown,
my Savior's love to me,
love to the loveless shown
that they might lovely be.
O who am I
that for my sake
my Lord should take
frail flesh, and die?
2 He came from heaven’s throne
salvation to bestow;
the world that was his own
would not its Savior know.
But O my Friend,
my Friend indeed,
who at my need
his life did spend!
3 Sometimes we strew his way,
and his sweet praises sing,
resounding all the day
hosannas to our King.
Then "Crucify!"
is all our breath,
and for his death
we thirst and cry.
4 Unheeding, we will have
our dear Lord made away,
a murderer to save,
the prince of life to slay.
Yet steadfast he
to suffering goes,
that he his foes
from thence might free.
5 Here might I stay and sing,
no story so divine:
never was love, dear King,
never was grief like thine.
This is my Friend,
in whose sweet praise
I all my days
could gladly spend. Topics: Christian Year Palm Sunday; Christian Year Maundy Thursday; Christian Year Good Friday; Jesus Christ Passion and Death; Lament; Love of God for Us; Salvation Scripture: Lamentations 1:12 Used With Tune: LOVE UNKNOWN

Christ is the one who calls
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith (b. 1926) Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.4.4 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Christ is the one who calls,
the one who loved and came,
to whom by right it falls
to bear the highest name:
and still today
our hearts are stirred
to hear his word
and walk his way.
2 Christ is the one who seeks,
to whom our souls are known.
The word of love he speaks
can wake a heart of stone;
for at that sound
the blind can see,
the slave is free,
the lost are found.
3 Christ is the one who died
forsaken and betrayed;
who, mocked and crucified,
the price of pardon paid.
Our dying Lord,
what grief and loss,
what bitter cross,
our souls restored!
4 Christ is the one who rose
in glory from the grave,
to share his life with those
whom once he died to save.
He drew death's sting
and broke its chains,
who lives and reigns,
our risen King.
5 Christ is the one who sends,
his story to declare;
who calls his servants friends
and gives them news to share.
His truth proclaim
in all the earth,
his matchless worth
and saving name.

Lord, bring the day to pass
Author: Ian Masson Fraser (b. 1917) Meter: 6.6.12.8.8 Appears in 10 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord, bring the day to pass
when forest, rock, and hill,
the beasts, the birds, the grass,
will know your finished will:
when we attain our destiny
and nature lives in harmony.
2 Forgive our careless use
of water, ore, and soil --
the plenty we abuse
supplied by others' toil:
save us from making self our creed,
turn us towards each other's need.
3 Help us, when we release
creation's secret powers,
to harness them for peace,
our children's peace and ours:
teach us the art of mastering
in servant form, like Christ our King.
4 Creation groans, travails,
futile its present plight,
bound -- till the hour it hails
God's children born of light:
that we may gain our true estate,
come, Lord, new heavens and earth create. Topics: Our Response to God in the stewardship of the earth; Care of Creation; Children; Penitence; Science and Technology Scripture: 1 John 4:17 Used With Tune: LOVE UNKNOWN
Lord, bring the day to pass
