Father, Who on Man Dost Shower
Author: Percy Dearmer Meter: 8.8.8.7 Appears in 33 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 22:15-22 Lyrics: 1 Father, who on man dost shower
Gifts of plenty from Thy dower,
To Thy people give the power
All Thy gifts to use aright.
2 Give pure happiness in leisure,
Temperance in ev'ry pleasure,
Holy use of earthly treasure,
Bodies clear and spirits bright.
3 Lift from this and every nation
All that brings us degradation;
Quell the forces of temptation;
Put Thine enemies to flight.
4 Father, who hast sought and found us,
Son of God, whose love hath bound us,
Holy Ghost, within us, round us,
Hear us, Godhead infinite.
Amen. Topics: Church Year Trinity Season; Trinity, Twenty-third Sunday; A Day of Thanksgiving or a Harvest Festival; National; Harvest Used With Tune: QUEM PASTORES

Great God, Your Love Has Called Us Here
Author: Brian Wren (1936-) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 32 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 22:1-10 Lyrics: 1 Great God, your love has called us here
as we, by love, for love were made.
Your living likeness still we bear,
though marred, dishonoured, disobeyed.
We come, with all our heart and mind
your call to hear, your love to find.
2 We come with self-inflicted pains
of broken trust and chosen wrong;
half-free, half-bound by inner chains;
by social forces swept along,
by powers and systems close confined;
yet seeking hope for humankind.
3 Great God, in Christ you call our name
and then receive us as your own
not through some merit, right, or claim,
but by your gracious love alone.
We strain to glimpse your mercy seat
and find you kneeling at our feet.
4 Then take the towel, and break the bread,
and humble us, and call us friends.
Suffer and serve till all are fed,
and show how grandly love intends
to work till all creation sings,
to fill all worlds, to crown all things.
5 Great God, in Christ you set us free
your life to live, your joy to share.
Give us your Spirit's liberty
to turn from guilt and dull despair
and offer all that faith can do
while love is making all things new. Topics: Call and Vocation; Holy Week (Maundy Thursday); Sunday Used With Tune: ST. PETERSBURG

O Jesus Christ, May Grateful Hymns
Author: Bradford Gray Webster Meter: 11.10.11.10 Appears in 20 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 22:37-39 First Line: O Jesus Christ, may grateful hymns be rising Lyrics: 1 O Jesus Christ, may grateful hymns be rising,
in every city for your love and care;
Inspire our worship, grant the glad surprising
that your blessed Spirit rouses everywhere.
2 Grant us new courage, never proud, but humble,
strong in your strength to venture and to dare;
To lift the fallen, guide the ones who stumble,
seek out the lonely and God's mercy share.
3 Show us your Spirit, brooding o'er each city,
as you once wept above Jerusalem,
Seeking to gather all in love and pity,
and healing those who touch your garment's hem.
