When Christ Was Raised From Death
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith Hymnal: NHOH #221 Lyrics: When Christ was raised from death
by God's almighty power,
restored to life and thought and breath
in that decisive hour,
our glorious risen Lord
abolished death and grave,
in vindication of his word,
his promised power to save.
Within the darkened tomb,
where cold his body lay,
he rose from night's prevailing gloom
to everlasting day;
irreparable loss
was overturned by heaven,
that all who look to Jesus cross
might know themselves forgiven.
For we with him shall rise
in hope of glory bright;
a city fair before us lies
where Christ is Light of Light;
renewed, embodied, blest,
through God's unbounded grace,
to share in his eternal rest,
and see the Saviour's face. Languages: English

When Eden's Joys Would Not Suffice (The Fall)
Author: Patricia B. Clark Hymnal: NHOH #222 Meter: 8.8.8.6 First Line: When Eden's joys would not suffice Lyrics: 1. When Eden's joys would not suffice,
forbidden fruit did then entice,
and mortals paid a costly price --
they cast away the prize.
2. The instant taste of sweet delight
soon vanished from their present sight;
the day had turned to darkest night
before their very eyes.
3. The Maker's love is greater still
than all the strength of human will;
God led them through the dark until
the sun again could rise.
4. In God's good time, the Son arose,
to rescue us from evil's throes,
and grace's breeze now gently blows
again through Paradise.
5. Now praise the One whose tender care
embraces people everywhere,
that in God's goodness all may share;
we have regained the prize! Scripture: Genesis 3:1-21 Languages: English

When Jesus Taught by Galilee
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith Hymnal: NHOH #223 Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: When Jesus taught by Galilee
he called disciples to his side,
his friends and followers to be,
to spread his gospel far and wide:
the word of life we still proclaim,
baptizing in the threefold Name.
That Name declares a Father's love,
a covenant of grace and care,
an everlasting home above,
a family on earth to share,
beloved and precious in his sight,
who walk as children of the light.
The Name of Christ becomes our own,
our sovereign Lord and Saviour now,
to follow him, and him alone,
whose sign is printed on our brow;
his service share, his cause defend,
and so continue to the end.
We bear the Holy Spirit's Name,
who life and truth and power imparts,
who comes, as once in wind and flame,
to make his home within our hearts;
and daily in our lives increase
his fruit of love, and joy and peace.
So in the threefold Name today
baptized in faith from all our sins,
we turn to Christ, our Truth and Way,
the Life in whom our life begins;
to Christ who saves and sets us free,
his followers and friends to be. Languages: English Tune Title: LAWRENCEBURG 100

Who Will Be There to Sing
Author: Shirley Erena Murray Hymnal: NHOH #226 Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.4.4 First Line: Who will there be to sing Lyrics: 1 Who will there be to sing
if we do not sing well,
if all we know as true
has now no sounding bell?
Let's sing, my friends!
We make the choice
in disarray
or with one voice.
2 Who will there be to know
the Story in the song,
the soul food of our life
that makes the church stand strong?
Sing from our hearts
to tell and teach
by tune and text
where faith may reach!
3 Who will there be to hear
if we do not sing plain
that want of peace and bread
creates the world's deep pain?
Sing justice, friends,
to right the scales
where powers oppress
and greed prevails!
4 Who will there be to speak,
when silence is our song,
to state the Gospel truths,
provoke the powers of wrong?
Sing out, each voice!
One band, one choir,
be instruments
of God's desire! Topics: Music and Singing Languages: English
Who Will Be There to Sing
With Bitter Herbs
Author: John Core Hymnal: NHOH #227 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D First Line: With bitter herbs, with wine and bread Lyrics: 1. With bitter herbs, with wine and bread,
in ancient disciplines,
the doorposts stained again with red,
the Passover begins.
By lamplight at this borrowed board,
this best of all the days,
with quiet voice declare, O Lord,
that one of them betrays.
2. Unspoken questions fill the air
where festal joy had been:
"Could it be I?" the inner fear,
a tense "who can he mean?"
In silence as their questions stop,
Christ speaks at table's head:
"the one with whom I share the sop,
to whom I pass this bread."
3. Above forgotten plate and cup
they wait, they watch you stand;
the simple sop is lifted up,
and passed to Judas' hand.
Tell him to do what must be done,
the silence now is thick,
Christ, send him out in fading sun:
betrayal must be quick.
4. The others cannot quite discern
what passed between the two,
perhaps some detail, small concern,
some errand yet to do;
yet these two know beyond all doubt
that God's will each now calls;
and Judas, bread in hand, goes out,
and as he goes, night falls. Scripture: John 13:21-30 Languages: English Tune Title: ISCARIOT

Our Gifts of Heritage and Joy (With Love the Birds prepare a Nest)
Author: Paul Chappel Hymnal: NHOH #228 First Line: With love the birds prepare a nest Lyrics: 1 With love the birds prepare a nest,
Their family's new place,
And expectation fills their hearts
To bless their special space.
A child is born from love and joy
With God to watch and care.
Our families, like woven nests
Connect to pray and share.
2 Today we come with warm embrace
To share the faith we live,
Our gifts of heritage and joy
We're here, with love, to give.
We come with water, sign of life
That Jesus came to bring-
And oil of blessing calls us on
To pray, to praise, and sing!
3 The water falls on birds and trees
A blessing sign of grace -
Baptising water urges us
To call this church our place!
I olden days God blessed the oil
That burned a whole week through,
Christ's feet, anointed with great love
Lead us on pathways new!
4 The vows we make with God to guide
Will make our fam'lies strong!
Through prayer and joy, through tears and hope
God joins our journey long.
We praise the God creating still,
We praise God's Saviour Son!
We praise the Spirit's blessing flight
Like birds on wings of song!
