When in Our Music God Is Glorified

Author: Fred Pratt Green, b. 1903 Hymnal: CWLH1993 #248 (1993) Meter: 10.10.10 with alleluias Lyrics: 1 When in our music God is glorified, And adoration leaves no room for pride, It is as though the whole creation cried: Alleluia! 2 How oft, in making music, we have found A new dimension in the world of sound As worship moved us to a more profound Alleluia! 3 So has the Church, in liturgy and song, In faith and love, through centuries of wrong, Borne witness to the truth in ev'ry tongue: Alleluia! 4 And did not Jesus sing a psalm that night When utmost evil strove against the light? Then let us sing, for whom he won the fight: Alleluia! 5 Let ev'ry instrument be tuned for praise; Let all rejoice who have a voice to raise, And may God give us faith to sing always: Alleluia!

Alleluia! 3 O Jesus, let your mind within us be, For you were servant that we might be free And humbly stooped to death on Calvary. Alleluia! 4 Therefore you are, by God's eternal vow, Most high exalted o'er all creatures now And giv'n the name to which all knees shall bow.

Alleluia! 5 And when the fight is fierce, the warfare long, Steals on the ear the distant triumph-song, And hearts are brave again and arms are strong. Alleluia! Alleluia! 6 The golden evening brightens in the west; Soon, soon, to faithful warriors comes their rest. Sweet is the calm of paradise the blest. Alleluia! Alleluia! 7 But then there breaks a yet more glorious day: The saints triumphant rise in bright array; The King of glory passes on his way. Alleluia! Alleluia! 8 From earth's wide bounds to ocean's farthest coast Through gates of pearl streams in the countless host, Singing to Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Alleluia! Alleluia!

Be still, my soul; the waves and winds still know His voice who ruled them while he lived below. 3 Be still, my soul, though dearest friends depart And all is darkened in the vale of tears; Then you will better know his love, his heart, Who comes to soothe your sorrows and your fears. Be still, my soul; your Jesus can repay From his own fullness all he takes away. 4 Be still, my soul; the hour is hast'ning on When we shall be forever with the Lord, When disappointment, grief, and fear are gone, Sorrow forgot, love's purest joys restored. Be still, my soul; when change and tears are past, All safe and blessed we shall meet at last. Topics: Trust; Trust Languages: English Tune Title: FINLANDIA

Before your altar, Lord, your servants bow; In this your feast of love be with us now. Topics: Holy Communion; Holy Communion Languages: English Tune Title: OLD 124TH

Here, O My Lord, I See You Face to Face

Author: Horatius Bonar, 1808-89 Hymnal: CWLH1993 #315 (1993) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 Here, O my Lord, I see you face to face; Here would I touch and handle things unseen, Here grasp with firmer hand eternal grace, And all my weariness upon you lean. 2 This is the hour of banquet and of song; Here is the heav'nly table spread anew. Here let me feast and, feasting, still prolong The brief bright hour of fellowship with you. 3 I have no help but yours nor do I need Another arm but yours to lean upon. It is enough, O Lord, enough indeed; My strength is in your might, your might alone. 4 Mine is the sin but yours the righteousness; Mine is the guilt but yours the cleansing blood. Here is my robe, my refuge, and my peace: Your blood, your righteousness, O Lord, my God. 5 Too soon we rise; the vessels disappear. The feast, though not the love, is past and gone. The bread and wine remove, but you are here, Nearer than ever, still my shield and sun. 6 Feast after feast thus comes and passes by, Yet, passing, points to that glad feast above, Giving sweet foretaste of the festal joy, The Lamb’s great marriage feast of bliss and love.

Once more we bless thee ere our worship cease, Then, lowly bending, wait thy word of peace. 2 Grant us thy peace upon our homeward way; With thee began, with thee shall end the day. Guard thou the lips from sin, the hearts from shame, That in this house have called upon thy name. 3 Grant us thy peace, Lord, through the coming night; Turn thou for us its darkness into light. From harm and danger keep thy people free, For dark and light are both alike to thee. 4 Grant us thy peace throughout our earthly life, Our balm in sorrow and our stay in strife. Then, when thy voice shall bid our conflict cease, Call us, O Lord, to thine eternal peace. Topics: Close of Service; Close of Service Languages: English Tune Title: ELLERS

Forgive our thanks for walking pleasant ways, Unmindful of a broken brother's needs. 4 Open our eyes to see your love's intent, To know with minds and hearts its depth and height. Let thankful days in loving labor spent Reflect the truly Christ-like life and light. Topics: Stewardship; Stewardship Languages: English Tune Title: SURSUM CORDA
