Give us the wings of faith to rise
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 514 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 10:19-20 Lyrics: 1 Give us the wings of faith to rise
within the veil, and see
the saints above, how great their joys,
how bright their glories be.
2 Once they were mourning here below,
their couch was wet with tears;
they wrestled hard, as we do now,
with sins and doubts and fears.
3 We ask them whence their victory came:
they, with united breath,
ascribe their conquest to the Lamb,
their triumph to his death.
4 They marked the footsteps that he trod,
his zeal inspired their breast,
and, following their incarnate God,
possess the promised rest.
5 Our glorious Leader claims our praise
for his own pattern given;
while the long cloud of witnesses
show the same path to heaven. Topics: Saints Used With Tune: SAN ROCCO

Give to the winds thy fears
Author: J. Wesley Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Appears in 516 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 10:36 Lyrics: 1 Give to the winds thy fears;
Hope, and be undismayed;
God hears thy sighs, and counts thy tears;
God shall lift up thy head:
Through waves and clouds and storms
He gently clears the way:
Wait thou his time, so shall this night
Soon end in joyous day.
2 Still heavy is thy heart?
Still sink thy spirits down?
Cast off the weight--let fear depart,
And every care be gone.
What though thou rulest not;
Yet heaven and earth and hell
Proclaim--God sitteth on the throne,
And ruleth all things well.
3 Leave to his sov-reign sway
To choose and to command;
So shalt thou, wond'ring, own his way,
How wise, how strong his hand!
Far, far above thy thought
His counsel shall appear,
When fully he the work hath wrought
That caused thy needless fear. Topics: The Christian Life Trial and Patience; He Ruleth All Things Well
Give to the winds thy fears

God is here! As we his people
Author: F. Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 47 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 10:24-25 Lyrics: 1 God is here! As we your people
meet to offer praise and prayer,
may we find in fuller measure
what it is in Christ we share.
Here, as in the world around us,
all our varied skills and arts
wait the coming of the Spirit
into open minds and hearts.
2 Here are symbols to remind us
of our lifelong need of grace;
Here are table, font, and pulpit;
here the cross has central place.
Here in honesty of preaching,
here in silence, as in speech,
here in newness and renewal,
God the Spirit comes to each.
3 Here our children find a welcome
in the Shepherd's flock and fold,
here as bread and wine are taken,
Christ sustains us as of old.
Here the servants of the Servant
seek in worship to explore
what it means in daily living
to believe and to adore.
4 Lord of all, of Church and Kingdom,
in an age of change and doubt,
keep us faithful to the gospel,
help us work your purpose out.
Here, in this day's dedication,
all we have to give, receive:
we, who cannot live without you,
we adore you! We believe. Topics: Holy Communion; Third Sunday Before Lent Year A; Proper 16 Year B Used With Tune: BLAENWERN

God, we name you sovereign Lord!
Mighty King whom angels worship,
Father, by your church adored:
all creation shows your glory,
heaven and earth draw near your throne,
singing, 'Holy, holy, holy,
Lord of hosts, and God alone!'
2 True apostles, faithful prophets,
saints who set their world ablaze,
martyrs, once unknown, unheeded,
join one growing song of praise,
while your church on earth confesses
one majestic Trinity:
Father, Son, th Holy Spirit,
God our hope eternally.
3 Jesus Christ, the king of glory,
everlasting Son of God,
humble was your virgin mother,
hard the lonely path you trod:
by your cross is sin defeated,
hell confronted face to face,
heaven opened to believers,
sinners justified by grace.
4 Christ, at God's right hand victorious,
you will judge the world you made;
Lord, in mercy help your servants
for whose freedom you have paid:
raise us up from dust to glory,
guard us from all sin today;
King enthroned above all praises,
save your people, God, we pray.

thanks for the love by which our life is fed,
a love not changed by time or death or dread:

lying in darkness does its life retain,
in resurrection to grow green again:
