till we are known as Christ's, and Christians prove.

When God the Spirit Came
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, b. 1926 Meter: 6.6.8.6.6.6 Appears in 7 hymnals Scripture: Acts 2 Lyrics: 1 When God the Spirit came
Upon his church outpoured
In sound of wind and sign of flame,
They spread his truth abroad,
And filled with the Spirit,
Proclaimed that Christ is Lord.
2 What courage, pow'r and grace
That youthful church displayed!
To those of ev'ry tribe and race
They witnessed unafraid,
And filled with the Spirit,
They broke their bread and prayed.
3 They saw God's Word prevail,
His kingdom still increase,
No part of all his purpose fail,
No promised blessing cease,
And filled with the Spirit,
Knew love and joy and peace.
4 Their theme was Christ alone,
The Lord who lived and died,
Who rose to his eternal throne
At God the Father's side,
And filled with the Spirit
The church was multiplied.
5 So to this present hour
Our task is still the same,
In pentecostal love and pow'r
His gospel to proclaim,
And filled with the Spirit,
Rejoice in Jesus' Name. Topics: Pentecost; Pentecost; Church; Commissioning; Ministry; Mission; Witness Used With Tune: VINEYARD HAVEN

The Church’s One Foundation
Author: Samuel John Stone Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 856 hymnals Scripture: Acts 2:42 First Line: The church's one foundation Lyrics: 1 The church's one foundation
is Jesus Christ her Lord.
She is his new creation
by water and the word.
From heaven he came and sought her
to be his holy bride.
With his own blood he bought her,
and for her life he died.
2 Elect from every nation,
yet one o'er all the earth,
her charter of salvation:
one Lord, one faith, one birth.
One holy name she blesses,
partakes one holy food,
and to one hope she presses,
with every grace endued.
3 Though with a scornful wonder
this world sees her oppressed,
by schisms rent asunder,
by heresies distressed,
yet saints their watch are keeping;
their cry goes up: "How long?"
And soon the night of weeping
shall be the morn of song.
4 Mid toil and tribulation,
and tumult of her war,
she waits the consummation
of peace forevermore:
till with the vision glorious
her longing eyes are blest,
and the great church victorious
shall be the church at rest.
5 Yet she on earth has union
with God, the Three in One,
and mystic sweet communion
with those whose rest is won:
O happy ones and holy!
Lord, give us grace that we,
like them, the meek and lowly,
may live eternally. Topics: Atonement; The Church; Eternal Life; Hope; Reconciliation; Salvation; Unity Used With Tune: AURELIA

that calls me from a world of care,
and bids me at my Father's throne
make all my wants and wishes known.
In seasons of distress and grief
my soul has often found relief,
and oft escaped the tempter's snare
by your return, sweet hour of prayer.
2 Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer,
the joys I feel, the bliss I share
of those whose anxious spirits burn
with strong desires for your return!
With such I hasten to the place
where God my Savior shows his face,
and gladly take my station there,
and wait for you, sweet hour of prayer.
3 Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer,
your wings shall my petition bear
to him whose truth and faithfulness
engage the waiting soul to bless.
And since he bids me seek his face,
believe his Word, and trust his grace,
I'll cast on him my every care,
and wait for you, sweet hour of prayer. Used With Tune: SWEET HOUR
