O for a Faith That Will Not Shrink
Author: William H. Bathurst Hymnal: Hymns for the Living Church #316 (1974) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Tune Title: ARLINGTON Scripture: Mark 9:24 Lyrics: 1 O for a faith that will not shrink
Though pressed by many a foe,
That will not tremble on the brink
Of any earthly woe;
2 That will not murmur nor complain
Beneath the chast'ning rod,
But in the hour of grief or pain
Will lean upon its God;
3 A faith that shines more bright and clear
When tempests rage without,
That, when in danger, knows no fear,
In darkness feels no doubt.
4 Lord, give me such a faith as this,
And then, whate’er may come,
I’ll taste e’en here the hallowed bliss
Of an eternal home.
Amen. Languages: English

Do Not Turn Away the Children
Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Hymnal: Songs of Grace #23 (2009) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Tune Title: BEACH SPRING Scripture: Mark 9:33-37 First Line: "Do not turn away the children Lyrics: “Do not turn away the children.
Let them come to me instead,
For to them belongs the kingdom.
Make them welcome!” Christ, you said.
As we hear your words of blessing
That you spoke when they drew near,
Can we hear your love addressing
Needs of children we see here?
Do not turn your back on children
Hungry, hunted in Darfur;*
Give them justice, food and welcome,
Make their homes and lives secure.
Don’t neglect the world of children
Who have AIDS and HIV,
For to them belongs the kingdom.
Give them health care that they need.
Do not tell the nation’s children,
“Schools are what we can’t afford!”
Give them all good education;
Teach them well, both rich and poor.
Do not hurry past the children
Longing for your love this day;
For to them belongs the kingdom;
Give them time, don’t turn away.
Do not miss the faith of children
Who have questions deep inside,
For to them belongs the kingdom;
Wonder with them, be their guide.
Jesus, as we hear your blessing
For those ones you welcomed in,
May our deeds reflect your caring
As we welcome them again!
*Alternative wording, “Who know violence, pain and war.”

Shepherd Divine, Our Wants Relieve
Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #245 (1985) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Tune Title: BEDENS BROOK Scripture: Mark 9:2-7 Lyrics: 1 Shepherd divine, our wants relieve
in this, our evil day;
to all thy tempted foll'wers give
the power to watch and pray.
2 Long as our fiery trials last,
long as the cross we bear,
O let our souls on thee be cast
in never ceasing prayer.
3 Thy Spirit's interceding grace
give us in faith to claim,
to wrestle till we see thy face,
and know thy hidden name.
4 Till thou thy perfect love impart,
till thou thyself bestow,
be this the cry of ev'ry heart:
"I will not let thee go!
5 "I will not let thee go unless
thou tell thy name to me,
with all thy great salvation bless,
and make me all like thee."
6 Then let me on the mountaintop
behold thine open face
where faith in sight is swallowed up,
and prayer in endless praise. Languages: English

Jesus, on the mountain peak
Author: Brian Wren (b. 1936) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #279 (2013) Meter: 7.8.7.8 with alleluia Tune Title: BLEA MOOR Scripture: Mark 9:2-8 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, on the mountain peak,
stands alone in glory blazing.
Let us, if we dare to speak,
join the saints and angels praising:
Alleluia!
2 Trembling at his feet we saw
Moses and Elijah speaking.
All the Prophets and the Law
shout through them their joyful greeting:
Alleluia!
3 Swift the cloud of glory came,
God, proclaiming in its thunder,
Jesus as the Son by name!
Nations, cry aloud in wonder:
Alleluia!
4 Jesus is the chosen One,
living hope of every nation,
hear and heed him, everyone;
sing, with earth and all creation,
Alleluia! Topics: Church year The Transfiguration; Prophets; The Sunday next before Lent Years A, B & C; Transfiguration Languages: English
Jesus, on the mountain peak
We have come at Christ's own bidding
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., 1944 Hymnal: The Book of Praise #187 (1997) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Tune Title: BREWER Scripture: Mark 9:2-13 Lyrics: 1 We have come at Christ’s own bidding
to this high and holy place,
where we wait with hope and longing
for some token of God’s grace.
Here we pray for new assurance
that our faith is not in vain,
searching like those first disciples
for a sign both clear and plain.
2 Light breaks in upon our darkness;
splendor bathes the flesh-joined Word;
Moses and Elijah marvel
as the heavenly voice is heard.
Eyes and hearts behold with wonder
how the law and prophets meet:
Christ, with garments drenched in brightness,
stands transfigured and complete.
3 Strengthened by this glimpse of glory,
fearful lest our faith decline,
we like Peter find it tempting
to remain and build a shrine,
but true worship gives us courage
to proclaim what we profess,
that our daily lives may prove us
people of the God we bless. Topics: Church Year Transfiguration; Courage; Discipleship; Hope; Jesus Christ Word; Jesus Christ Call of; Longing for God and Christ Languages: English
