The Stars Declare His Glory

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, b. 1926 Hymnal: Gather Comprehensive #489 (1994) Meter: 7.6.8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 The stars declare his glory; The vault of heaven springs Mute witness of the Master's hand In all created things, And through the silences of space Their soundless music sings. 2 The dawn returns in splendor, The heavens burn and blaze, The rising sun renews the race That measures all our days, And writes in fire across the skies God's majesty and praise. 3 So shine the Lord's commandments To make the simple wise; More sweet than honey to the taste, More rich than any prize, A law of love within our hearts, A light before our eyes. 4 So order too this life of mine, Direct it all my days; The meditations of my heart Be innocence and praise, My rock and my redeeming Lord, In all my words and ways.

Take Us as We Are, O God

Author: Carl P. Daw Jr, b. 1944 Hymnal: Lift Up Your Hearts #862 (2013) Meter: 7.6.8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Take us as we are, O God, and claim us as your own. As once you chose to tell your love in human flesh and bone, so let our lives be used to make your saving purpose known. 2 Bless us for your service, Lord; no power we devise will ever give us strength enough or make us truly wise, yet by your promise we can know the peace your grace supplies. 3 Break us open to disclose how brokenness can heal, wherever broken loaves suffice to give a crowd a meal and graves break open to release new life from death’s dread seal. 4 Give us to the world you love as light and salt and yeast, that we may nourish in your name the last, the lost, the least, until at length you call us all to your unending feast. Topics: Discipleship; Mission; Testimony/Witness Scripture: Matthew 5:13-16 Languages: English Tune Title: ENDLESS FEAST
