Many and Great, O God, Are Your Works
Author: Joseph R. Renville, 1779-1846; Philip Frazier, 1892-1964 Appears in 46 hymnals Scripture: Genesis 2 Lyrics: 1 Many and great, O God, are your works,
Maker of earth and sky;
Your hands have set the heav'ns with stars;
Your fingers spread the mountains and plains.
Lo, Your word formed the waters deep;
Oceans obey Your voice.
2 Grant unto us communion with You,
O star-abiding One;
Come unto us and dwell with us;
With You are found the gifts of life.
Bless us with life that has no end,
Eternal life with You.

Most High, Omnipotent, Good Lord
Author: Francis of Assisi (1182-1226); Howard Chandler Robbins (1876-1952) Meter: 8.8.7.8.8 Appears in 6 hymnals Scripture: Genesis 1, 2:1-4 Lyrics: 1 Most High, omnipotent, good Lord,
to thee be ceaseless praise outpoured,
and blessing without measure.
From thee alone all creatures came;
no one is worthy thee to name.
2 My Lord be praised by brother sun
who through the skies his course doth run,
and shines in brilliant splendour;
with brightness he doth fill the day,
and signifies thy boundless sway.
3 My Lord be praised by sister moon
and all the stars, that with her soon
will point the glittering heavens.
Let wind and air and cloud and calm
and weathers all, repeat the psalm.
4 By sister water be thou blessed,
most humble, useful, precious, chaste;
be praised by brother fire;
jocund is he, robust and bright,
and strong to lighten all the night.
5 By mother earth my Lord be praised;
governed by thee she hath upraised
what for our life is needful.
Sustained by thee, through every hour,
she bringeth forth fruit, herb, and flower.
6 My Lord be praised by those who prove
in free forgivingness their love,
nor shrink from tribulation.
Happy, who peaceably endure;
with thee, Lord, their reward is sure.
7 For death our sister, praised be,
from whom no one alive can free.
Woe to the unprepared!
But blest be they who do thy will
and follow thy commandments still.
8 Most high, omnipotent, good Lord,
to thee be ceaseless praise outpoured,
and blessing without measure.
Let creatures all give thanks to thee,
and serve in great humility. Topics: Creation; Creation; Gathering of the Community; Praise of God; Song of creation Used With Tune: ASSISI

Mighty God Who Called Creation
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., b. 1944 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Genesis 1, 2:1-4 Lyrics: 1 Mighty God who called creation
From the unformed womb of space,
Newborn worlds of gleaming glory,
Fresh with hope and ripe with grace:
Speak again with pow'r and promise
When the storms of fear increase;
To our chaos and confusion
Let Your light and truth bring peace.
2 As we worship, may Your Spirit
Breathe through us the pow'r of prayer,
Words of life for daily living,
Strength to do and faith to dare.
Come, enflame us, Holy Spirit,
Like the Church at Pentecost;
Help us bear the light of blessing
To the least, the last, the lost.
3 Rooted in the love of Jesus,
Nourished by His flesh and blood,
May we prove a fruitful vineyard
Joined in mutual servanthood.
Work through us, O risen Savior,
To reap peace from fields of strife;
Bring our barren wastes to blossom;
Lead us out of death to life.
4 Keep us faithful, joyful, loving,
Filled with hope through grief and pain,
Knowing that the One who made us
Has redeemed and will sustain:
Triune God, of boundless glory,
Yet in human form made known,
Raise us up to be a people
Called by love to be Your own. Topics: The Gospel in the Christian Life Christian Life, Discipleship; Commitment/Dedication; Discipleship; God Hand/work in nature, world, universe; Holy Spirit Renewal; Service Used With Tune: ABBOT'S LEIGH
