Count Well the Cost
Author: Alexander Mack Sr.; Ora W. Graber Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Mark 8:31-38 First Line: “Count well the cost,” Christ Jesus says Lyrics: 1 “Count well the cost,” Christ Jesus says,
“when you lay the foundation.”
Are you resolved, though all seem lost,
to risk your reputation,
your self, your wealth, for Christ the Lord,
as you now give your solemn word?
2 Into Christ’s death be buried now
through baptism’s joyous union.
No selfish claim should you allow
if you desire communion
when Christ’s redeemed together meet,
the bread of fellowship to eat.
3 Within the church’s warm embrace
the child of God is molded.
God’s Spirit lights the infant face,
and in God’s grace is folded.
With childlike steps, Christ’s plan we trace,
till we grow up in godly grace.
4 In Christian growth we are matured,
of fruitful vines a token.
That this good growth may be assured
ofttimes to us is broken
the bread of fellowship replete
when Christ’s redeemed together meet.

Community of Christ
Author: Shirley Erena Murray, 1931- Meter: 6.6.8.4 D Appears in 6 hymnals Scripture: Mark 8:34 Lyrics: 1 Community of Christ,
who make the cross your own,
live out your creed and risk your life
for God alone:
the God who wears your face,
to whom all worlds belong,
whose children are of every race
and every song.
2 Community of Christ,
look past the Church's door
and see the refugee, the hungry,
and the poor.
Take hands with the oppressed,
the jobless in your street,
take towel and water, that you wash
your neighbor's feet.
3 Community of Christ,
through whom the word must sound --
cry out for justice and for peace
the whole world round:
disarm the powers that war
and all that can destroy,
turn bombs to bread, and tears of anguish
into joy.
4 When menace melts away,
so shall God's will be done,
the climate of the world be peace
and Christ its sun;
our currency be love
and kindliness our law,
our food and faith be shared as one
for evermore. Used With Tune: LEONI

Christian Self-denial
Appears in 138 hymnals Scripture: Mark 8:34 First Line: And must I part with all I have Lyrics: 1 And must I part with all I have,
My dearest Lord for thee?
It is but right since thou hast done
Much more than this for me.
2 Yes, let it go--one look from thee
Will more than make amends,
For all the losses I sustain
Of credit, riches, friends.
3 Ten thousand worlds, then thousand lives,
How worthless they appear,
Compar'd with thee, supremely good,
Divinely bright and fair!
4 Saviour of souls, could I from thee
A single smile obtain,
Tho' destitute of all things else,
I'd glory in my gain.

Cradled in a manger, meanly
Come, ye thankful people, come
Author: Henry Alford, 1810-1871 Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 727 hymnals Scripture: Mark 8:38 Lyrics: 1 Come, ye thankful people, come,
raise the song of harvest home;
all is safely gathered in,
ere the winter storms begin;
God, our Maker, doth provide
for our wants to be supplied.
Come, to God's own temple, come:
raise the song of harvest home.
2 All the world is God's own field,
fruit unto God's praise to yield;
wheat and weeds together sown,
unto joy or sorrow grown;
first the blade and then the ear,
then the full corn shall appear.
Lord of harvest, grant that we
wholesome grain and pure may be.
3 For the Lord our God shall come
and shall take the harvest home;
from the field shall in that day
all offences purge away,
give the angels charge at last
in the fire the tares to cast,
but the fruitful ears to store
in God's storehouse evermore.
4 Even so, Lord, quickly come
to thy final harvest home:
gather thou thy people in,
free from sorrow, free from sin;
there, forever purified,
in thy presence to abide.
Come, with all thine angels, come:
raise the glorious harvest home. Topics: Descants and Fauxbourdons; God Creator and Ruler; Harvest Thanksgiving; Rural Life / Rogation Sunday; Second Coming Used With Tune: ST. GEORGE'S WINDSOR
