O My God, Do Not Keep Silent
Psalm 78
Author: Carl P. Daw Jr. Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Hear, O people, holy teaching Lyrics: 1. Hear, O people, holy teaching,
Mysteries from ancient time,
Handed down with hope and longing,
Voiced through parable and rhyme.
In recounting God's great wonders,
We remember and renew
For each coming generation
Ways to know what God can do.
2. Forebears once enslaved in Egpyt
Gained their freedom through God's might,
Saw the sea rolled back before them,
Watched for cloud (or fire at night),
Drank the water sprung from boulders,
Gatheres manna day by day.
Mortals ate the bread of angels,
Yet they would not keep God's way.
3. So God's wrath was roused against them,
Laying low the strong and young.
Sometimes they would feign repentance,
But no truth was on their tongue.
Yet God's mercy kept forgiving
All the many times they sinned,
Mindful that they were but mortals,
Fragile as a breath of wind.
4. Then God chose a servant monarch,
Called from sheepfolds to a throne,
Called to guide and tend the faithful,
Showing them they are God's own.
In their midst God raised a dwelling
On the brow of Zion's hill,
Standing as a sign of Heaven
On the Earth God cares for still. Topics: Ordinary Time Week 21 Scripture: Psalm 78 Used With Tune: ABBOT'S LEIGH
Psalm 78
We Have Come at Christ's Own Bidding
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr. Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 12 hymnals Lyrics: 1 We have come at Christ’s own bidding
to this high and holy place,
where we wait with hope and longing
for some token of God’s grace.
Here we pray for new assurance
that our faith is not in vain,
searching like those first disciples
for a sign both clear and plain.
2 Light breaks in upon our darkness,
splendour bathes the flesh-joined Word,
Moses and Elijah marvel
as the heavenly voice is heard.
Eyes and hearts behold with wonder
how the Law and Prophets meet:
Christ, with garments drenched in brightness,
stands transfigured and complete.
3 Strengthened by this glimpse of glory,
fearful lest our faith decline,
we like Peter find it tempting
to remain and build a shrine.
But true worship gives us courage
to proclaim what we profess,
that our daily lives may prove us
people of the God we bless.

En un aposento alto
Author: H. W. Cragin Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 16 hymnals Lyrics: 1 En un aposento alto,
con unánime fervor,
ciento veinte esperaban
la promesa del Señor.
Con estruendo de los cielos
descendió sublime voz;
todos fueron inspirados
del Espíritu de Dios.
2 Este gran poder antiguo
es de fiel celeste don;
prometido a los creyentes
de humilde corazón.
Dios está restituyendo
este gran Pentecostés,
y el Espíritu sus dones
nos reparte otra vez.

Church of God, Elect and Glorious
Author: James E. Seddon, 1915-1983 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 22 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Church of God, elect and glorious,
Holy nation, chosen race;
Called as God’s own special people,
Royal priests and heirs of grace:
Know the purpose of your calling.
Show to all his mighty deeds;
Tell of love that knows no limits,
Grace that meets all human needs.
2 God has called you out of darkness
Into his most marv’lous light,
Brought his truth to life within you,
Turned your blindness into sight.
Let your light so shine around you
That God’s name is glorified
And all find fresh hope and purpose
In Christ Jesus crucified.
3 Once you were an alien people,
Strangers to God’s heart of love;
But he brought you home in mercy,
Citizens of heav’n above.
Let his love flow out to others;
Let them feel a Father’s care;
That they too may know his welcome
And his countless blessings share.
4 Church of God, elect and holy,
Be the people he intends;
Strong in faith and swift to answer
Each command your master sends:
Royal priests, fulfill your calling
Through your sacrifice and prayer;
Give your lives in joyful service—
Sing his praise, his love declare. Topics: Church Used With Tune: ABBOT’S LEIGH
