The Church of Christ in Every Age

Author: Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: Voices United #601 (1996) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Church in the World Discipleship: Love in Action; Christian Experience; Church Anniversaries; Church Ecumenism; Church Permanence; Heritage; Hunger; Justice; Love for Others; Ministry; Mission and Outreach; Obedience; Renewal; Sacrifice; Service; Social Concerns; Testimony; Word of God; World; Epiphany 9 Year A; Proper 16 Year A; Proper 21 Year A; Easter 6 Year C; Proper 7 Year C; Holy thursday Year ABC Lyrics: 1 The church of Christ, in every age, beset by change but Spirit led, must claim and test its heritage and keep on rising from the dead. 2 Across the world, across the street the victims of injustice cry for shelter and for bread to eat, and never live until they die. 3 Then let the servant church arise, a caring church that longs to be a partner in Christ's sacrifice, and clothed in Christ's humanity. 4 For Christ alone, whose blood was shed, can cure the fever in our blood, and teach us how to share our bread and feed the starving multitude. 5 We have no mission but to serve in full obedience to our Lord: to care for all without reserve and spread Christ's liberating word.

Grant us wisdom, grant us courage, for the living of these days. 3 Cure your children’s warring madness, bend our pride to your control; shame our wanton selfish gladness, rich in goods and poor in soul. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage, lest we miss your kingdom's goal. 4 Set our feet on lofty places; gird our lives that they may be armoured with all Christ-like graces, pledged to set all captives free. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage, that we fail not them nor thee. Languages: English Tune Title: RHUDDLAN

Thou who art enthroned in glory

Author: Mrs. Lydia Jane Pierson Hymnal: The Sunday School Hymnal #110 (1899) Topics: Anniversary; Christ Glory of; Church; Church A Vine; Educational Institutions; Freedom Religious; Zion Lyrics: 1 Thou who art enthroned in glory, Crowned with love and robed in grace, Lo! we humbly bow before Thee, Offering up our songs of praise. Mighty God and gracious Saviour! Spirit of enduring grace, Come in Thine especial favor, With Thy glory fill this place. 2 We would celebrate the changes Which the passing years have made, Since our fathers—poor and strangers— Sought the Western forest’s shade. From Helvetia’s vine-clad mountains Came a little friendless band; By the rich Rhine’s infant fountains, Others left their fatherland. 3 Here the little vine, increasing, Spread its branches green and fair; Now by Thine especial blessing See how wide Thy vineyards are. Come and take the ripened cluster; All the vintage, Lord, is Thine; But let mercy temper justice, Where Thou meet’st a fruitless vine. 4 Let our institutions flourish, Sending forth a pious band, With the words of life to nourish All who hunger through the land. Zion spreads her hands before Thee; Come, and in her temples reign, While we give all praise and glory To the Triune God, Amen. Tune Title: GUIDANCE
