in you to conquer sin.

so teach us, gracious Lord,
to die to self, and so to live
by your most holy Word.

and through your Passiontide,
forevermore, in life and death,

of doubts and hope and pain,
an Easter of unending joy
we may at last attain! Topics: Church Year Lent Scripture: Matthew 4:1-2 Languages: English Tune Title: MORNING SONG

How Sweet Was the Garden, Fertile and Fair
Author: Carl P. Daw Jr., b. 1944 Hymnal: LUYH2013 #29 (2013) Meter: 10.10.11.11 Person Name: Carl P. Daw Jr., b. 1944 Lyrics: 1 How sweet was the garden, fertile and fair,
the first and best home God gave to our care,
a paradise lavished on creatures of clay;
yet we were not willing to follow God’s way.
2 We freely could eat from all but one tree
(forbidden, perhaps, lest gods we might be?),
but tasting we grew not divine after all:
the fruit in our mouth turned from nectar to gall.
3 From dark, bitter fruit came forth a bright seed,
for God did not turn from us in our need;
the love that first formed us embraces us still
and woos us from wandering to follow God’s will.

“Look what the Lord has done for them!”
Indeed our God has greatly blessed us;
rejoice and sing, Jerusalem!
2 Once more, O Lord, restore your people;
come with your saving help again,
as to the brook beds in the desert
you bring the sweet, reviving rain.
Let those who sow with tears and sighing
sing as they reap and joy proclaim:
may those who weep when seed is scattered
gather their sheaves and praise your name. Topics: Covenant Faithfulness; God's Salvation Scripture: Psalm 126 Languages: English Tune Title: WAYFARING STRANGER

the covenant recall,
the oath once sworn to Abraham,
from foes to save us all,

and offer lives of praise,
in holiness and righteousness
to serve God all our days.
3 My child, as prophet of the Lord,
you will prepare the way,

to drive away the gloom of death
and lead us into peace. Topics: Biblical Names and Places Abraham; Biblical Names and Places David; Church Year Advent; Covenant Faithfulness; Darkness Scripture: Luke 1:58-79 Languages: English Tune Title: FOREST GREEN

Mark How the Lamb of God's Self-Offering
Author: Carl P. Daw Jr., b. 1944 Hymnal: LUYH2013 #113 (2013) Meter: 9.8.9.8 D Person Name: Carl P. Daw Jr., b. 1944 Lyrics: 1 Mark how the Lamb of God’s self offering
our human sinfulness takes on
in the birth waters of the Jordan
as Jesus is baptized by John.
Hear how the voice from heaven thunders,
“Lo, this is my beloved Son.”
See how in dovelike form the Spirit
descends on God’s anointed one.
2 From this assurance of God’s favor
Jesus goes to the wilderness,
there to endure a time of testing
that readied him to teach and bless.
So we, by water and the Spirit
baptized into Christ’s ministry,
are often led to paths of service
through mazes of adversity.
3 Grant us, O God, the strength and courage
to live the faith our lips declare;
bless us in our baptismal calling;
Christ’s royal priesthood help us share.
Turn us from every false allegiance,
that we may trust in Christ alone:
raise up in us a chosen people
transformed by love to be your own.

giving up what had seemed sure,
taking risks and pressing on,
though the way feels less secure:
pilgrimage both right and odd,
trusting all our life to God.

keeping memory’s roots alive
so that hope may bear its fruit;
promise fed, our souls will thrive,
not through merit we possess
but by God’s great faithfulness.

stretching minds, enlarging hearts,
sharing struggles, living prayer,
binding up the broken parts;
till we find the commonplace
ripe with witness to God’s grace. Topics: Discipleship; Trust in God; Unity and Fellowship Scripture: James 1:17 Languages: English Tune Title: LUX PRIMA

the last, the lost, the least,
until at length you call us all
to your unending feast.

worldly wisdom has defined,

be transformed in heart and mind;
by past mercies taught and led,
let us seek the path ahead,
trusting that, like those before us,
God will guide us and restore us. Topics: Discipleship; Evangelism; God's Gifts; Holy Spirit; Elements of Worship Offering Scripture: Romans 12:1-2 Languages: English Tune Title: COSTLY GIFTS

I ponder all your care;
thirsty as parched earth,
I lift my hands in prayer.

my spirit faints in me;
do not hide your face,
or I will cease to be.
When the morning dawns,
make known your love anew;
show me how to walk,
for I will trust in you.
4 Keep me safe, O God,
and help me learn your will;
let your Spirit lead
through level pathways still.

my griefs and fears dispel;
free me from my foes,
that I may serve you well. Topics: Lament Individual; Hymns That Are Prayer; Elements of Worship Offering Our Prayers Scripture: Psalm 143 Languages: English Tune Title: HYMN CHANT
