Lord of our growing years
Lord of the changing year
Author: David Mowbray (born 1938) Hymnal: Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) #261b (1987) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Lord of the changing year,
patterns and colours bright;
all that we see and hear,
sunrise and starlit night:
the seasons, Lord, in splendour shine,
your never-failing wise design.
2 Lord of the winter scene,
hard-frozen ice and snow;
death where once life has been,
nothing is seen to grow;
few creatures roam, few birds will fly
across the clouded Christmas sky:
3 Lord of unfolding spring,
promise of life to come;
nature begins to sing
where once her tongue was dumb;
the crocus blooms, the hedgerows wake,
and Easter day is soon to break:
4 Lord of the summer days,
spreading and green the trees;
songthrush lift high your praise,
gulls light on deep-blue seas;
the warmth and welcome of the sun
brings happiness to everyone:
5 Lord of the autumn gold,
reaping and harvest home,
sheep safely in the fold,
turn of the year has come:
the seasons, Lord, in splendour shine,
your never-failing wise design. Topics: Easter The Resurrection of Christ; God's World Years and Seasons; The Creation Languages: English Tune Title: LITTLE CORNARD

God Is Unique And One
Author: Fred Kaan Hymnal: Voices United #277 (1996) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Lyrics: 1 God is unique and one:
Maker, Sustainer, Lord!
Patterns of life were spun
by that creative word.
Of God's intention, love and care
we are with growing trust aware.
2 Love came to earth in Christ,
our common life to share,
choosing to be the least,
willing a cross to bear.
He died, he rose, that we might live
and all our love, responding, give.
3 The Holy Spirit moves
people to trace God's plan;
such inspiration proves
more than the mind can span.
Each listening heart is led to find
the will of God for humankind.
4 God shall forever reign,
ruler of time and space;
there, in the midst of life,
seen in the human face.
We give expression to our creed
by love in thought, in word and deed.

They Did Not Build in Vain
Author: Alan Luff (1928-) Hymnal: Common Praise (1998) #302 (1998) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Lyrics: 1 They did not build in vain
who founded here a church
as witness to God's love
amid a world of pain,
for still, to those who wish to see,
this place proclaims God's mystery.
2 They built upon the rock
that is the risen Lord,
the one foundation laid
which stands each earthly shock;
that, Spirit filled, we here might raise,
as living temples, prayer and praise.
3 Those who have loved this place,
a cloud of witnesses,
surround and urge us on
as we now run our race,
and so we lay aside each sin
in our desire to strive and win.
4 Though the horizon's bend
conceals the way ahead,
the footprints on the road
show Christ waits at the end;
in him alone our faith shall stand
who waits for us at God's right hand.
5 In every place our world
is storm and tempest tossed;
the flames of fear and hate
are evil's flags unfurled;
yet still the Spirit's wind and fire
pour gifts for service in this hour.
6 Here is our meeting place,
where doubt finds grounds of faith;
where hurt finds healing love,
our penitence your grace;
where bridging time to eternity
is God the holy Trinity. Topics: Aniversary of Parish/Church; Church Scripture: Genesis 28:10-22 Languages: English Tune Title: LITTLE CORNARD
