God, Whose Almighty Word
Author: John Marriott, 1780-1825 Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Appears in 445 hymnals Scripture: Mark 5:15 Lyrics: 1 God, whose almighty word
Chaos and darkness heard,
And took their flight:
Hear us, we humbly pray,
And where the gospel-day
Sheds not its glorious ray,
Let there be light!
2 Savior, you came to give
Those who in darkness live
Healing and sight,
Health to the sick in mind,
Sight to the inward blind:
Now to all humankind
Let there be light!
3 Spirit of truth and love,
Life-giving, holy dove,
Speed forth your flight!
Move on the water's face
Bearing the lamp of grace
And, in earth's darkest place,
Let there be light!
4 Gracious and holy Three,
Glorious Trinity,
Wisdom, love, might:
Boundless as ocean's tide
Rolling in fullest pride
Through the world far and wide,
Let there be light! Topics: Healing; Light; New Creation; Petition; Trinity Used With Tune: ITALIAN HYMN
God, Whose Almighty Word
Great God, your love has called us here
Author: Brian Wren (b. 1936) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 32 hymnals Scripture: Mark 5:3-5 Lyrics: 1 Great God, your love has called us here
as we, by love, for love were made.
Your living likeness still we bear,
though marred, dishonoured, disobeyed.
We come, with all our heart and mind
your call to hear, your love to find.
2 We come with self-inflicted pains
of broken trust and chosen wrong,
half-free, half-bound by inner chains,
by social forces swept along,
by powers and systems close confined,
yet seeking hope for humankind.
3 Great God, in Christ you call our name
and then receive us as your own,
not through some merit, right or claim,
but by your gracious love alone.
We strain to glimpse your mercy seat
and find you kneeling at our feet.
4 Then take the towel, and break the bread,
and humble us, and call us friends.
Suffer and serve till all are fed,
and show how grandly love intends
to work till all creation sings,
to fill all worlds, to crown all things.
5 Great God, in Christ you set us free
your life to live, your joy to share.
Give us your Spirit's liberty
to turn from guilt and dull despair
and offer all that faith can do
while love is making all things new. Topics: Our Response to Christ In Penitence; Our Response to God in the worship of God's house; Christ Incarnate Passion and Death; Lent; Christian Year Maundy Thursday; Church Worship; God Love of; Renewal Used With Tune: MELITA
