God is here! As we his people

Author: Fred Pratt Green (1903-2000) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #445 (2013) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Dedication Festival; Other Saints and Festivals Dedication Festival Lyrics: 1 God is here! As we his people meet to offer praise and prayer, may we find in fuller measure what it is in Christ we share. Here, as in the world around us, all our varied skills and arts wait the coming of his Spirit into open minds and hearts. 2 Here are symbols to remind us of our lifelong need of grace; here are table, font and pulpit; here the cross has central place. Here in honesty of preaching, here in silence, as in speech, here, in newness and renewal, God the Spirit comes to each. 3 Here our children find a welcome in the Shepherd's flock and fold, here, as bread and wine are taken, Christ sustains us as of old. Here the servants of the Servant seek in worship to explore what it means in daily living to believe and to adore. 4 Lord of all, of Church and Kingdom, in an age of change and doubt, keep us faithful to the gospel, help us work your purpose out. Here, in this day's dedication, all we have to give, receive: we, who cannot live without you, we adore you! We believe! Scripture: 1 Corinthians 12:27-31 Languages: English Tune Title: EVERTON

Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: WESTMINSTER ABBEY

Only-begotten, Word of God eternal

Author: M. J. Blacker, 1822-88 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #210 (1986) Meter: 11.11.11.5 Topics: Dedication Festival Lyrics: 1 Only-begotten, Word of God eternal, Lord of Creation, merciful and mighty, Hear thou thy servants, when their tuneful voices Rise to thy presence. 2 Thus in our solemn Feast of Dedication, Graced with returning rites of due devotion, Ever thy children, year by year rejoicing, Chant in thy temple. 3 This is thy palace; here thy presence-chamber; Here may thy servants, at the mystic banquet, Daily adoring, take thy body broken, Drink of thy chalice. 4 Here for thy children stands the holy laver, Fountain of pardon for the guilt of nature, Cleansed by whose water springs a race anointed, Liegemen of Jesus. 5 Here in our sickness, healing grace aboundeth, Light in our blindness, in our toil refreshment; Sin is forgiven, hope o’er fear prevaileth, Joy over sorrow. 6 Hallowed this dwelling where the Lord abideth, This is none other than the gate of heaven; Strangers and pilgrims, making homes eternal, Pass through its portals. 7 Lord, we beseech thee, as we throng thy temple By thy past blessings, by thy present bounty, Smile on thy children, and with tender mercy Hear our petitions. 8 God in Three Persons, Father everlasting, Son co-eternal, ever blessèd Spirit, Thine be the glory, praise, and adoration, Now and for ever. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ISTE CONFESSOR (2)

Angel-voices ever singing

Can we know that thou art near us, and wilt hear us? Yea, we can. 3 Yea, we know that thou rejoicest o'er each work of thine; thou didst ears and hands and voices for thy praise design; craftsman's art and music's measure for thy pleasure all combine. 4 In thy house, great God, we offer of thine own to thee; and for thine acceptance proffer all unworthily hearts and minds and hands and voices in our choicest psalmody. 5 Honour, glory, might, and merit thine shall ever be, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, blessèd Trinity. Of the best that thou hast given earth and heaven render thee. Scripture: 1 Kings 8:22-30 Languages: English Tune Title: ANGEL VOICES

In our day of Thanksgiving one psalm let us offer

Author: William Draper, 1855-1933 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #208 (1986) Meter: 12.11.12.11 Topics: Dedication Festival Lyrics: 1 In our day of thanksgiving one psalm let us offer For the saints who before us have found their reward; When the shadow of death fell upon them, we sorrowed, But now we rejoice that they rest in the Lord. 2 In the morning of life, and at noon, and at even, He called them away from our worship below; But not till his love, at the font and the altar, Had girt them with grace for the way they should go. 3 These stones that have echoed their praises are holy, And dear is the ground where their feet have once trod; Yet here they confessed they were strangers and pilgrims, And still they were seeking the city of God. 4 Sing praise then, for all who here sought and here found Him, Whose journey is ended, whose perils are past: They believed in the Light; and its glory is round them, Where the clouds of earth’s sorrows are lifted at last.
