Take Up Your Cross
Author: Charles W. Everest, 1814-1877 Hymnal: RitualSong #808 (1996) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Take up your cross, the Savior said Lyrics: 1 Take up your cross, the Savior said,
If you would my disciple be;
Take up your cross with willing heart,
And humbly follow after me.
2 Take up your cross, let not its weight
Fill your weak spirit with alarm;
His strength shall bear your spirit up,
And brace your heart and nerve your arm.
3 Take up your cross, heed not the shame,
And let your foolish heart be still;
The Lord for you accepted death
Upon a cross, on Calv'ry's hill.
4 Take up your cross, then, in his strength,
And calmly ev'ry danger brave:
It guides you to a better home
And leads to vict'ry o'er the grave.
5 Take up your cross, and follow Christ,
Nor think till death to lay it down;
For only those who bear the cross
May hope to wear the glorious crown. Topics: 12th Sunday Year B; 13th Sunday Year A; 22nd Sunday in Ordinary Time Year A; 23rd Sunday in Ordinary Time Year C; 24th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year B; Discipleship Languages: English Tune Title: ERHALT UNS HERR

The Fiery Trial
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #1525 Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Where is the God of Shadrach? Where Lyrics: 1. Where is the God of Shadrach? Where
Abednego’s and Meshach’s Power,
Through whom we may the furnace bear,
The violence of hell’s hottest hour!
2. Be Thou omnipotently near,
Whose form is as the Son of Man,
Amidst the raging flames appear,
And all their burning power restrain.
3. Thou knowest, O Lord, in Thy great name,
Unshaken confidence we have,
Send us the promised help we claim,
Now, Jesus, and forever, save.
4. The world’s infernal king exclaims,
Whose image we disdained t’adore,
At his command the furnace flames,
Flames seven times hotter than before.
5. His mighty chiefs have cast us in,
Behold, ye heathen, and admire,
Loose from our bands we here are seen
And walk unhurt amidst the fire.
6. We walk throughout our evil day,
Our Leader in the furnace see,
The lambent flames around us play,
And own the present Deity. Languages: English Tune Title: ERHALT UNS, HERR
The Fiery Trial
The Law of God Is Good and Wise
Author: Matthias Loy Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #3577 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. The law of God is good and wise,
And sets His will before our eyes,
Shows us the way of righteousness,
And dooms to death when we transgress.
2. Its light of holiness imparts
The knowledge of our sinful hearts,
That we may see our lost estate
And seek deliverance ere too late.
3. To those who help in Christ have found
And would in works of love abound
It shows what deeds are His delight
And should be done as good and right.
4. When men the offered help disdain
And willfully in sin remain,
Its terror in their ear resounds
And keeps their wickedness in bounds.
5. The law is good, but since the fall
Its holiness condemns us all;
It dooms us for our sin to die
And has no power to justify.
6. To Jesus we for refuge flee,
Who from the curse has set us free,
And humbly worship at His throne,
Saved by His grace through faith alone. Languages: English Tune Title: ERHALT UNS, HERR
The Law of God Is Good and Wise
When Christ's Appearing Was Made Known
Author: Caelius Sedulius; John M. Neale, 1818-1866 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7356 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. When Christ’s appearing was made known,
King Herod trembled for his throne;
But He who offers heavenly birth
Sought not the kingdom of this earth.
2. The eastern sages saw from far
And followed on His guiding star;
By light their way to Light they trod,
And by their gifts confessed their God.
3. Within the Jordan’s sacred flood
The heavenly Lamb in meekness stood,
That He, to whom no sin was known,
Might cleanse His people from their own.
4. And O what miracle divine,
When water reddened into wine!
He spake the word, and forth it flowed
In streams that nature ne’er bestowed.
5. All glory, Jesus, be to Thee
For this Thy glad epiphany:
Whom with the Father we adore
And Holy Ghost forevermore. Languages: English Tune Title: ERHALT UNS, HERR
When Christ's Appearing Was Made Known
When Israel, Freed from Pharaoh's Hand
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7469 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. When Israel, freed from Pharaoh’s hand
Left the proud tyrant and his land,
The tribes with cheerful homage own
Their king, and Judah was His throne.
2. Across the deep their journey lay;
The deep divides to make them way;
Jordan beheld their march, and fled
With backward current to his head.
3. The mountains shook like frighted sheep,
Like lambs the little hillocks leap;
Not Sinai on her base could stand,
Conscious of sovereign power at hand.
4. What power could make the deep divide?
Make Jordan backward roll his tide?
Why did ye leap, ye little hills?
And whence the fright that Sinai feels?
5. Let every mountain, every flood,
Retire and know th’approaching God,
The King of Israel: see Him here;
Tremble, thou earth, adore and fear.
6. He thunders, and all nature mourns;
The rock to standing pools He turns;
Flints spring with fountains at His word,
And fires and seas confess the Lord. Languages: English Tune Title: ERHALT UNS, HERR
When Israel, Freed from Pharaoh's Hand
How Great, How Terrible That God
Author: Samuel Davies, 1723-1761 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9450 Lyrics: 1 How great, how terrible that God,
Who shakes creation with His nod!
He frowns—earth, sea, all nature’s frame,
Sink in one universal flame.
2 Where now, O where shall sinners seek
For shelter in the general wreck?
Shall falling rocks be o’er them thrown?
See rocks, like snow, dissolving down!
3 In vain for mercy now they cry;
In lakes of liquid fire they lie;
There on the flaming billows tossed,
For ever—O, for ever lost!
4 But saints, undaunted and serene,
Your eyes shall view the dreadful scene;
Your Savior lives, the worlds expire;
And earth and skies dissolve in fire.
5 Jesus, the helpless creature’s friend,
To Thee my all I dare commend;
Thou canst preserve my feeble soul,
When lightnings blaze from pole to pole. Languages: English Tune Title: ERHALT UNS, HERR
