God, We Praise You

Author: C. M. Idle, b. 1938 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 30 hymnals First Line: God, we praise You! God, we bless You Lyrics: 1 God, we praise You! God, we bless You! God, we name You sovereign Lord! Mighty King whom angels worship, Father, by Your church adored: All creation shows Your glory, Heav'n and earth draw near Your throne, Singing "Holy, holy, holy, Lord of hosts, and God alone!" 2 True apostles, faithful prophets, Saints who set their world ablaze, Martyrs, once unknown, unheeded, Join one growing song of praise, while Your church on earth confesses One majestic Trinity: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, God, our hope eternally. 3 Jesus Christ, the king of glory, Everlasting Son of God; Humble was Your Virgin Mother, Hard the lonely path You trod: By Your cross is sin defeated, Hell confronted face to face, Heaven opened to believers, Sinners justified by grace. 4 Christ, at God's right hand victorious, You will judge the world You made; Lord, in mercy help Your servants For whose freedom You have paid: Raise us up from dust to glory, Guard us from all sin today. King enthroned above all praises, Save Your people, God, we pray. Topics: Te Deum Used With Tune: NETTLETON

Praise the One Who Breaks the Darkness

Author: Rusty Edwards Appears in 19 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Praise the One who breaks the darkness With a liberating light. Praise the One who frees the pris'ners, Turning blindness into sight. Praise the One who preached the Gospel, Healing every dread disease, Calming storms and feeding thousands With the very bread of peace. 2 Praise the One who blessed the children With a strong yet gentle word. Praise the One who drove out demons With the piercing two-edged sword. Praise the One who brings cool water To the desert's burning sand. From this well comes living water, Quenching thirst in every land. 3 Praise the one true love incarnate: Christ, who suffered in our place. Jesus died and rose for many That we may know God by grace. Let us sing for joy and gladness, Seeing what our God has done. Praise the one redeeming glory, Praise the One who makes us one.

As We Gather at Your Table

Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr. Appears in 27 hymnals Lyrics: 1 As we gather at your table, As we listen to your word, Help us know, O God, your presence; Let our hearts and minds be stirred. Nourish us with sacred story Till we claim it as our own; Teach us through this holy banquet How to make Love’s vict'ry known. 2 Turn our worship into witness In the sacrament of life; Send us forth to love and serve you, Bringing peace where there is strife. Give us, Christ, your great compassion To forgive as you forgave; May we still behold your image In the world you died to save. 3 Grant us vision, gracious Spirit, To seek guests to share that feast Where triumphant love will welcome Those who had been last and least. There no more will envy blind us Nor will pride our peace destroy, As we join with saints and angels To repeat the sounding joy.

He is able, He is able, He is willing: doubt no more. He is able, He is able, He is willing: doubt no more. 2 Come, ye thirsty, come and welcome, God’s free bounty glorify; True belief, and true repentance, Every grace that brings us nigh. Without money, Without money, Come to Jesus Christ, and buy. Without money, Without money, Come to Jesus Christ, and buy. 3 Let not conscience make you linger, Nor of fitness fondly dream; All the fitness He requireth Is to feel your need of Him. This He gives you; This He gives you; 'Tis His Spirit's rising beam. This He gives you; This He gives you; 'Tis His Spirit's rising beam. 4 Agonizing in the garden, Lo! your Maker prostrate lies; On the blood-stained tree behold Him; Hear Him cry, before He dies. "It is finished! It is finished!" Sinner, will this not suffice? "It is finished! It is finished!" Sinner, will this not suffice? 5 Lo! the incarnate God, ascended, Pleads the merit of His blood: Venture to Him, venture wholly, Let no other trust intrude; None but Jesus, None but Jesus Can do helpless sinners good. None but Jesus, None but Jesus Can do helpless sinners good. Amen. Topics: Repentance Used With Tune: NETTLETON

God, Whose Giving Knows No Ending

Author: Robert L. Edwards Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 33 hymnals Lyrics: 1 God, whose giving knows no ending, from your rich and endless store, nature's wonder, Jesus' wisdom, costly cross, grave's shattered door: gifted by you, we turn to you, offering up ourselves in praise; thankful song shall rise forever, gracious donor of our days. 2 Skills and time are ours for pressing toward the goals of Christ, your Son: all at peace in health and freedom, races joined, the church made one. Now direct our daily labor, lest we strive for self alone; born with talents, make us servants fit to answer at Your throne. 3 Treasure too you have entrusted, gain through powers your grace conferred; ours to use for home and kindred, and to spread the gospel Word. Open wide our hands, in sharing, as we heed Christ's ageless call, healing, teaching, and reclaiming, serving you by loving all.
