Can You See the Living Christ
Author: Daniel Charles Damon Hymnal: NHOH #31 Lyrics: 1 Can you see the living Christ
in the people gathered here
bringing sorrow, bringing joy,
as the Spirit draws us near?
Can you hear the living Christ
in the songs of young and old,
in the voices of the world,
in the stories often told?
2 Can you sense the living Christ
in the praise the earth can give,
as the colors leap with joy
in the garden where you live?
Can you feel the living Christ
in the love that holds us fast,
as the mortar holds the stone
while it echoes praises past?
3 Risen Christ, we see your face
in the people gathered here
bringing sorrow, bringing joy,
as your Spirit draws us near.
Risen Christ, we walk by faith,
moved by what we cannot see,
till our sorrow turns to joy,
and you come to set us free. Topics: Christ; Easter; Faith; Praise Scripture: John 20:19-31 Languages: English Tune Title: CANYON LAKE

Christ Be the Way in Whom We Walk
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith Hymnal: NHOH #32 Meter: 8.5.8.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Christ be the Way in whom we walk
the pilgrim path we tread;
companion, teacher, guide and goal,
the guardian of the ransomed soul,
the first-born from the dead.
2 Christ be the Truth in whom we trust
when all seems shifting sand;
to strengthen faith and comfort grief,
to still the storms of unbelief,
the Rock on which we stand.
3 Christ be the Life in whom we live,
in whom all journeys end;
the Way, the Truth, the Life indeed,
the living Savior sinners need,
and our unfailing friend. Topics: Discipleship; Jesus Christ Lordship; Pilgrimage Languages: English

Christ Comes Again
Author: Barbara Hamm Hymnal: NHOH #33 Meter: 4.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Christ comes again
in the town or on the road,
when we lessen someone's pain
or we lighten someone's load.
2 Christ comes again
when the table has been set,
not alone for friends and kin,
but the stranger we have met.
3 Christ comes again
in the living of our days,
when we rest in our routine,
taking time for prayer and praise.
4 Christ comes again
as we labor to give birth
to a world where justice reigns,
making way for peace on earth.

Christ is our peace, Christ is our health
Author: Shirley Erena Murray Hymnal: NHOH #34 Meter: 8.8.10.8 Lyrics: 1 Christ is our peace, Christ is our health,
he the true Word, his the true wealth –
gifts to be shared by the simple and poor:
peace in your land, peace at your door.
2 Peace in your mouth, peace in the hands
open to truth, to love's demands:
those who would go with Christ also must bleed –
bright is the flower, burst is the seed.
3 Who work for peace find the true wealth,
who heal the hurt find their own health –
peace will flow on through the hearts that believe:
this may we know, thus may we live. Topics: Peace Languages: English Tune Title: SAM-KIAP
Christ is our peace, Christ is our health
Christmas comes close
Author: Shirley Erena Murray Hymnal: NHOH #35 Lyrics: 1 Christmas come close
in a child's crumpled face,
to the ragged and raw
in a harsh birthing place,
in a surging of joy,
in a bundle held tight,
in a breath, in a cry
through the dark of the night.
2 Christmas come close
to the place where we are,
in our longing for peace,
for a sign, for a star,
for a certainty born
in uncertainty's space,
for a mystery grasped
that our blindness can trace.
4 Christmas come close
to the world that is bleak,
giving hope a new home,
making prophecy speak:
so the angels will sing,
and the wise will be heard,
and the powers will take heed
of this child and his word.
4 Christmas come close
into focus and frame,
to humanity's heart
for the child to make claim:
for the poor to be served,
for the rich to kneel low,
for Magnificat now
in the Christmas we know.

Come, All Come, in Celebration for the Faith
Author: Mary Jackson Cathey Hymnal: NHOH #36 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: Come, all come, in celebration for the faith that we profess Lyrics: Come, all come, in celebration
for the faith that we profess,
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,
Triune God whom we profess.
All believers who before us
kept the faith and passed it on,
gave to us a sacred blessing
so that we now pass it on.
Sing, all sing, in jubilation
for the church to lead and guide
in fulfilling Christ's great mission
spread the Gospel far and wide.
When God sent the Holy Spirit
then the church received its birth,
fellowship of hope and pardon
is Christ's body here on earth.
Join, all join, in prayer and praises
for disciples of the past
who gave lives of constant service
sharing precepts that would last.
Through their nurture and direction
constant prayer and fervent drive
with the guidance of the Spirit
churches grew to serve and thrive.
Worship God with true thanksgiving
for the Bible, God's own Word,
from the wisdom of its pages
comes the message to be heard:
tend the sick and feed the hungry,
give to all who are in need,
visit those who are in prison
as we serve in word and deed.
Speak of God in awe and wonder
for creation and our lives.
By God's goodness and God's mercy
in our faith all hope survives.
From the earth to boundless heavens
through all lands, from shore to shore,
tell God's saving grace and promise
life with God forevermore. Languages: English

of our God's amazing grace.
By mercy of God's guidance
we now worship in this place.
Through the faith of those before us
who believed and knew God's word
they went forth into the future
with the gospel they had heard.
Offer prayers of true thanksgiving
for believers of the past
who with hope and dedication
formed a church they prayed would last.
In the following generations
a fellowship has come to be.
This a place of prayer and teaching
so God's truth can make all free.
Speak with real appreciation
for the heritage we own.
In our lives and in our serving
may our faith be clearly shown.
As God's people of the Covenant
let us live what we profess
by our acts and deeds of mercy
show the Christ that we confess.
Sing, all sing with jubilation
for this fellowship we own,
building on the firm foundation
our commitment here is shown.
As we look to years before us
and give thanks for days now past,
we go forward with God's blessing
to be faithful as God asked. Topics: Fellowship Languages: English

Come Christmas Child (A Carol of Advent)
Author: Shirley Erena Murray Hymnal: NHOH #38 First Line: Come, Christmas Child, come again in your wonder Refrain First Line: 11.10.11.10 Lyrics: 1 Come, Christmas Child, come again in your wonder,
changing the world with the light that you hold;
burst through the mist and the dust of the ages,
Word for our time to unwrap and unfold.
2 Come to be born in a comfortless cradle,
come where our cruelties keep us in chains:
Herod still hunts for our innocent children,
Rachel still weeps and her sorrow remains.
3 Bring us your mirror of hope and compassion,
bring us your mindset that mends and restores,
bake us the bread of new life you will offer,
knocking once more on humanity's doors.
4 Come, Christmas Child, in the festival's flurry,
come in the silence, the pain and the night,
come in the hearts that are faith-filled as Mary's,
bringing the joy of the love you invite. Topics: Advent Languages: English Tune Title: KLUS1946

Come Down, O Love Divine
Author: Bianco da Siena; Richard Littledale Hymnal: NHOH #39 Meter: 6.6.11 D Lyrics: 1 Come down, O Love Divine,
seek out this soul of mine,
and visit it with your own ardor glowing.
O Comforter, draw near;
within my heart appear,
and kindle it your holy flame bestowing.
2 O let it freely burn,
till earthly passions turn
to dust and ashes in its heat consuming.
And let your glorious light
shine ever on my sight,
and clothe me round, the while my path illuming.
3 And so the yearning strong,
with which the soul will long,
shall far outpass the power of human telling.
For none can guess God's grace,
till Love creates a place
wherein the Holy Spirit makes a dwelling Languages: English Tune Title: KEVIN
Come Down, O Love Divine
Come, Let Us Tune Our Souls To Sing
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith Hymnal: NHOH #40 Meter: 8.7.9.10.7.10.10.7 Lyrics: Come, let us tune our souls to sing
in honour of Jesus Christ;
to the living Lord and ascended King
our heartfelt homage and praises bring
in honour of Jesus Christ!
To the Man of Sorrow who bore our pain,
and who freed our fetters and loosed our chain
let the songs of triumph resound again
in honour of Jesus Christ!
Come with a will and take your part
in honour of Jesus Christ;
let worship waken the springs of art
and a flam of love be in every heart
in honour of Jesus Christ!
To the God mercy who hears our cry,
to the King immortal who came to die,
let our songs of glory be heard on high
in honour of Jesus Christ! Languages: English
