Creation Sings

Author: Shirley Erena Murray Hymnal: Worship and Song #3018 (2011) Topics: Lament; Lament First Line: Creation sings! And we are in the music Lyrics: 1 Creation sings! And we are in the music, the movement of God's energy and art, a liturgy that links our life to angels, a litany that rises from the heart. The Spirit sings! Through love and lamentation, from Pentecost to joy of Easter Day the universe is resonant with music, the smallest creature dances to its play. 2 Creation groans at our discordant clashing: the Spirit comes with music as our friend to bring the harmony of peace and beauty, to teach the textures of the way to blend. O God, you draw the melody from silence, you make of us the instruments of song! We offer thanks in worship and in wonder that such a gift to human souls belong. Scripture: Psalm 148 Languages: English Tune Title: LONDONDERRY AIR

Depth of Mercy

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: Worship and Song #3097 (2011) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Topics: Lament; Lament First Line: Depth of mercy! Can there be Lyrics: 1 Depth of mercy! Can there be mercy still reserved for me? Can my God his wrath forbear, me, the chief of sinners spare, me, the chief of sinners spare? 2 I have long withstood his grace, long provoked him to his face, would not hearken to his calls, grieved him by a thousand falls, grieved him by a thousand falls. 3 I my Master have denied, I afresh have crucified, oft profaned his hallowed name, put him to an open shame, put him to an open shame. 4 There for me the Savior stands, shows his wounds and spreads his hands. God is love! I know, I feel; Jesus weeps and loves me still, Jesus weeps and loves me still. 5 Now incline me to repent, let me now my sins lament, now my foul revolt deplore, weep, believe, and sin no more, weep, believe, and sin no more. Scripture: Ephesians 2:1-10 Languages: English Tune Title: GOTTES ZEIT

His peace and honor fled, His heart from GOD and truth estrang'd, His conscience fill'd with dread! 3 Now from his Maker's voice he fled, Which was before his joy; And thought to hide his guilty head, From all all-seeing eye. 4 Compell'd to answer to his name, With stubborness and pride He cast on God himself the blame, Nor once for mercy cry'd. 5 But grace, unask'd his heart subdu'd, And all his guilt forgave; By faith the promis'd seed he view'd, And felt its pow'r to save.

The Christian in darkness

Hymnal: The Hartford Selection of Hymns from the Most Approved Authors #CXLIII (1799) Topics: Darkness Lamented; Darkness Lamented First Line: Saviour, shine and cheer my soul Lyrics: 1 Saviour, shine and cheer my soul, Bid my dying hopes revive; make my wounded spirit whole, Far away the tempter drive: Speak the word, and set me free, Let me live alone to thee. 2 Once I thought my mountain strong, Firmly fix'd no more to move; Then thy grace was all my song, Then my soul was fill'd with love; Those were happy golden days, Sweetly spent in pray'r and praise. 3 Little, then myself I knew, Little thought of Satan's pow'r; Now I feel my sins anew, Now I feel the stormy hour! Sin has put my joys to flight, Sin has chang'd my day to night. 4 Satan asks, and mocks my woe, "Boaster, where is now your God? Silence, Lord, this cruel foe, Let him know I'm bought with blood: Tell him, since I know thy name, Though I change, thou art the same. Languages: English
