Kindred in Christ! for his dear sake
Thine arm, O Lord, in days of old
Author: E. H. Plumptre, 1821-1891 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 177 hymnals Scripture: Acts 10:39 Lyrics: 1 Thine arm, O Lord, in days of old
was strong to heal and save;
it triumphed o'er disease and death,
o'er darkness and the grave:
to thee they went, the deaf, the dumb,
the palsied and the lame,
the leper with his sightless eyes,
the sick with fevered frame.
2 And lo, thy touch brought life and health,
gave speech and strength and sight;
and youth renewed and frenzy calmed
owned thee, the Lord of light:
and now, O Lord, be near to bless,
almighty as of yore,
in crowded street, by restless couch,
as by Gennesareth's shore.
3 Be thou our great deliverer still,
thou Lord of life and death;
restore and quicken, soothe and bless,
with thine almighty breath:
to hands that work, and eyes that see,
give wisdom's heavenly lore,
that whole and sick, and weak and strong,
may praise thee evermore. Topics: Healing; Epiphany IV Year B; Fifth Sunday Before Lent Year B; Proper 4 Year C; Proper 23 Year C Used With Tune: ST MATTHEW
Thine arm, O Lord, in days of old
The beneficence of Christ for our imitaion
Author: Dr. Gibbons Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 155 hymnals Scripture: Acts 10:38 First Line: When Jesus dwelt in mortal clay Lyrics: 1 When Jesus dwelt in mortal clay,
What were His works, from day to day,
But miracles of pow'r and grace,
That spread salvation thro' our race?
2 Teach us, O Lord, to keep in view
Thy pattern, and thy steps pursue;
Let alms bestowed, let kindness done,
Be witness'd by each rolling sun.
3 That man may last, but never lives,
Who much receives but nothing gives,
Whom none can love, whom none can thank;
Creation's blot, creation's blank.
4 But he, who marks from day to day
In generous acts his radiant way,
Treads the same path his Savior trod,
The path to glory and to God. Topics: The Church Collections for Poor Churches and Poor Brethren; Collections for poor churches and ministers; Example of Christ; Collection of poor ministers

O Brother Man
Author: John Greenleaf Whittier Meter: 11.10.11.10 Appears in 149 hymnals Scripture: Acts 10:38 First Line: O brother man, fold to thy heart thy brother Lyrics: 1 O brother man, fold to thy heart thy brother;
Where pity dwells, the peace of God is there;
To worship rightly is to love each other,
Each smile a hymn, each kindly deed a prayer.
2 For he whom Jesus loved has truly spoken:
The holier worship which He deigns to bless
Restores the lost, and binds the spirit broken,
And feeds the widow and the fatherless.
3 Follow with reverent steps the great example
Of Him whose holy work was doing good;
So shall the wide earth seem our Father's temple,
Each loving life a psalm of gratitude.
4 Then shall all shackles fall; the stormy clangor
Of wild war music o'er the earth shall cease;
Love shall tread out the baleful fire of anger,
And in its ashes plant the tree of peace.
Amen. Topics: Brotherhood; Christ Example; Discipleship; Fellowship; Peace on Earth; Service; Church, The Christian Fellowship Used With Tune: WELWYN

O Sing a Song of Bethlehem
Author: Louis F. Benson Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 64 hymnals Scripture: Acts 10:29-43 Lyrics: 1 O sing a song of Bethlehem,
of shepherds watching there,
and of the news that came to them
from angels in the air:
The light that shone on Bethlehem
fills all the world today;
of Jesus' birth and peace on earth
the angels sing alway.
2 O sing a song of Nazareth,
of days of joy and sun,
O sing of fragrant flowers' breath,
and of the sinless One:
For now the flowers of Nazareth
in every heart may grow;
now spreads the fame of his dear name
on all the winds that blow.
3 O sing a song of Galilee,
of lake and woods and hill,
of One who walked upon the sea
and bade the waves be still:
For though, like waves on Galilee,
rough seas of trouble roll,
when faith has heard the Master's word,
falls peace upon the soul.
4 O sing a song of Calvary,
its glory and dismay,
of One who hung upon the tree,
and took our sins away:
For Christ who died on Calvary
is risen from the grave;
God's sovereign Child, who reconciled,
is mighty now to save. Topics: Adoration and Praise Jesus Christ; Jesus Christ Life and Ministry; Jesus Christ Presentation of; Year A Christmas 1; Year A Proper 14; Year A Presentation; Year B Proper 12; Year B Presentation; Year C Presentation Used With Tune: KINGSFOLD

incarnate deigns to be;
himself a servant's form puts on,
to set his servants free.

to meet thy lowly King;
nor let thy faithless heart despise
the peace he comes to bring.
4 As Judge, on clouds of light,
he soon will come again,
and his true members all unite
with him in heav'n to reign.

who comes to set us free,
with Father, Spirit, ever One,

God is here! As we his people
Author: F. Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 47 hymnals Scripture: Acts 10:36 Lyrics: 1 God is here! As we your 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 the 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. Topics: Holy Communion; Third Sunday Before Lent Year A; Proper 16 Year B Used With Tune: BLAENWERN
