Praise the One Who Breaks the Darkness
Author: Rusty Edwards (1955-) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 19 hymnals Scripture: 2 Timothy 1:1-14 Lyrics: 1 Praise the one who break the darkness
with a liberating light.
Praise the one who frees the prisoners,
turning blindness into sight.
Praise the one who preached the gospel,
healing every dread disease,
calming storms and feeding thousands
with the very bread of peace.
2 Praise the one who blessed the children
with a strong yet gentle word.
Praise the one who drove out demons
with a piercing two-edged sword.
Praise the one who brings cool water
to the desert's burning sand.
From this well comes living water
quenching thirst in every land.
3 Praise the one true love incarnate:
Christ who suffered in our place.
Jesus died and rose for many
that we may know God by grace.
Let us sing for joy and gladness,
seeing what our God has done.
Praise the one redeeming glory;
praise the One who makes us one. Topics: Epiphany (season); Healing; Jesus' Life and Ministry; Praise of God; Water Used With Tune: NETTLETON

Pray for the church afflicted and oppressed
Author: F. Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Appears in 7 hymnals Scripture: 2 Timothy 1:8 Lyrics: 1 Pray for the church afflicted and oppressed,
for all who suffer for the gospel's sake,
that Christ may show us how to serve them best
in that one kingdom Satan cannot shake.
But how much more than us they have to give,
who by their dying show us how to live!
2 Pray for Christ's dissidents, who daily wait,
as Jesus waited in the olive grove,
the unjust trial, the pre-determined fate,
the world's contempt for reconciling love.
Shall all they won for us, at such a cost,
be by our negligence or weakness lost?
3 Pray that if times of testing should lay bare
what sort we are, who call ourselves his own,
we may be counted worthy then to wear,
with quiet fortitude, Christ's only crown:
the crown that in his saints he wears again
the crown of thorns that signifies his reign. Topics: Peace and Justice; Maundy Thursday Used With Tune: UNDE ET MEMORES
Pray for the church afflicted and oppressed
Praise for Salvation
Author: John Relly Meter: Irregular Appears in 5 hymnals Scripture: 2 Timothy 1:9 First Line: Come ye lovers of the Lamb Lyrics: 1 Come ye Lovers of the Lamb,
Praise the great almighty name;
To your God your songs begin,
To the Lamb your bleeding King.
2 Jesus, thee we honours give;
Live Almighty Jesus, live;
Thou hast penn'd our songs with blood,
Thee we hail, incarnate God.
3 We were laden once with sin,
But the Lamb hath made us clean;
We, who once in darkness lay,
Now behold eternal day.
4 Strangers once and far from God,
Now brought home by Jesu's blood,
Shining in our wedding dress,
In the Lord, our righteousness.
5 Poor, and low, we once did lie,
Full of wants, and sore oppress'd;
Jesus now hat rais'd us high,
All our Grievances redress'd.
6 Deeply sinking once in hell,
Without hope, and without God;
Now our tongues can greatly tell,
We are sav'd by Jesu's blood.
7 Freely we are sav'd by grace,
Heart and Hand we this embrace;
This below, fills ev'ry tongue
This above, is all the song.
8 Praises still to Christ we sing,
Christ our Prophet, Priest, and King;
Living waters in us flow,
Glory is begun below. Topics: Creation, Providence, Redemption and Salvation, celebrated in Songs of Praise
