The Church Is Our Safe Haven
Author: Mary Nelson Keithahn Hymnal: Time Now to Gather #15 (1999) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D First Line: The church is our safe haven, Lyrics: The church is our safe haven,a refuge in the storm,where we can come when troubleshave left our hearts forlornand find a gracious welcome,compassion, love, and care,among your people gatheredfor story, song, and prayer.Since they, too, have known wintersof doubt, despair, and fear,they warm us with their friendshipand fill us with good cheer,their presence like a candlethat gives off heat and lightto save a stranded travelerlost on a snowy night.God, in their understanding,we feel your kind embrace,and sense the joy and wonderof your transforming grace,a grace that makes us holy,a people set apartto travel on love's highwaywith mind and strength and heart.Protected by this mantleof love that we have known,we face life's new adventuresno longer lost or lone.Though storms of life may threaten,and cold winds chill our soul,we journey on with courage,our spirits now made whole.God of the fiery pillar.and Pentecost’s bright flame,the love of Christ still glowingin those who bear his name,forge us as loyal servants,his faithful friends always.Fill us with glad thanksgivingand everlasting praise.

O Day of Rest and Gladness
Author: Bishop C. Wordsworth Hymnal: The New Christian Hymnal #15 (1929) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 O day of rest and gladness,
O day of joy and light,
O balm of care and sadness,
Most beautiful, most bright;
On thee, the high and lowly,
Bending before the throne,
Sing, Holy, Holy, Holy,
To the great Three in One.
2 On thee, at the creation,
The light first had its birth;
On thee, for our salvation,
Christ rose from depths of earth.
On thee, our Lord victorious
The Spirit sent from Heav'n;
And thus on thee most glorious
A triple light was given.
3 Today on weary nations
The heav'nly manna falls;
To holy convocations
The silver trumpet calls,
Where gospel light is glowing
With pure and radiant beams,
And living water flowing
With soul-refreshing streams.
4 New graces ever gaining
From this our day of rest,
We reach the rest remaining
To spirits of the blest.
To Holy Ghost be praises,
To Father and to Son;
The Church her voice upraises
To Thee, blest Three in One.
Amen. Topics: Worship Languages: English Tune Title: MENDEBRAS

O Lord, You Called Disciples
Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Hymnal: Songs of Grace #15 (2009) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D First Line: O Lord, you called disciples, proclaiming, "Come and see!" Lyrics: O Lord, you called disciples, proclaiming, “Come and see!”
And so an invitation began your ministry.
Then Andrew called his brother, and Peter came to you;
More men and women followed, and little children, too.
You met a busy woman out in the noon-day sun.
You shared God’s love, you listened; you told all she had done.
She called her friends and neighbors and brought them face to face
With you, the living water, the bearer of God’s grace.
O Christ, your invitation has reached from year to year!
Through some who heard you calling, a church was founded here.
As faithful people served you a century ago,*
They soon invited others; your church began to grow.
God, by your Holy Spirit, now send us in your name
To serve the lost and outcast, the poor for whom you came.
Through gifts of hope and healing, through loving ministry,
May we reach out, inviting the world to “Come and see!”
*Or “as faithful people served you so many years ago,”

Rejoice, Rejoice, Ye Christians
Hymnal: Hymnal and Order of Service #15 (1901) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, rejoice, ye Christians,
With all your hearts, this morn!
Oh, hear the blessed tidings,
The Lord, the Christ, is born.
Now brought us by the angels
That stand about God's throne;
Oh, lovely are the voices
That make such tidings known!
2 Oh, hearken to their singing!
This Child shall be your Friend;
The Father so hath willed it,
That thus your woes should end.
The Son is freely given,
That in Him ye may have
The Father's grace and blessing,
And know He loves to save.
3 Nor deem the form too lowly
That clothes Him at this hour;
For know ye what it hideth?
'Tis God's almighty power.
Though now within the manger
So poor and weak He lies,
He is the Lord of all things,
He reigns above the skies.
4 Sin, death, and hell, and Satan
Have lost the victory;
This Child shall overthrow them,
As ye shall surely see.
Their wrath shall naught avail them;
Fear not, their reign is o'er;
This Child shall overthrow them,--
Oh, hear, and doubt no more!

As We, Your People Gather (Hymn for World Peace)
Author: Howard Maple Hymnal: New Hymns of Hope #16 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D First Line: As we, your people, gather Lyrics: 1 As we, your people, gather
with wearied hearts, O Lord,
let prayers be now uplifted
for peace to be restored.
May healing and repentance
in every land be known,
as sword is turned to plowshare
and seeds of trust are sown.
2 The cries of desperation,
the orphan in distress,
instill in us a longing
that words cannot express.
Yet, as the Spirit's presence
within each heart is stirred,
we find new strength and courage
in God's unfailing Word.
3 The prophet voices call us
to seek that promised day
when hatred and oppression
at last are swept away.
No darkness will surround us;
in light we dwell secure.
God's purpose is accomplished
when peace and love endure. Topics: Commemoration of 9/11; Courage; Justice and Peace; Peace; Peace on Earth; Promise and Hope Scripture: Isaiah 2:4-5 Languages: English Tune Title: AURELIA

Hail to the Lord's Anointed!
Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #16 (1926) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D First Line: Hail to the Lord's Anointed Lyrics: 1 Hail to the Lord's Anointed,
Great David's greater Son!
Hail, in the time appointed,
His reign on earth begun!
He comes to break oppression,
To set the captive free,
To take away transgression
And rule in equity.
2 He comes with succor speedy
To those who suffer wrong;
To help the poor and needy,
And bid the weak be strong:
To give them songs for sighing;
Their darkness turn to light,
Whose souls, condemned and dying,
Were precious in His sight.
3 He shall come down like showers
Upon the fruitful earth;
And love, joy, hope, like flowers,
Spring in His path to birth.
Before Him on the mountains
Shall peace, the herald, go;
And righteousness in fountains
From hill to valley flow.
4 To Him shall prayer unceasing
And daily vows ascend;
His kingdom still increasing,
A kingdom without end.
The tide of time shall never
His covenant remove;
His Name shall stand forever,--
That Name to us is Love.
Amen. Topics: Church Year Advent; Advent, Third Sunday; Christ Work of; Names and Office of Christ Anointed; Covenant Christ's; Kingdom of Christ Scripture: Psalm 72 Languages: English Tune Title: AURELIA
