A prayer in need
Author: John Newton Hymnal: Laudes Domini #47 (1890) Topics: Prayer and Invocation First Line: Come, my soul, thy suit prepare Lyrics: 1 Come, my soul, thy suit prepare,
Jesus loves to answer prayer;
He himself has bid thee pray,
Therefore will not say thee nay.
2 With my burden I begin:
Lord! remove this load of sin;
Let thy blood, for sinners spilt,
Set my conscience free from guilt.
3 Lord! I come to thee for rest;
Take possession of my breast;
There, thy blood-bought right maintain,
And, without a rival, reign.
4 While I am a pilgrim here,
Let thy love my spirit cheer;
As my Guide, my Guard, my Friend,
Lead me to my journey's end.
5 Show me what I have to do,
Every hour my strength renew;
Let me live a life of faith,
Let me die thy people's death. Languages: English Tune Title: HENDON

Come Down, O Love Divine
Author: Bianco da Siena, 1350-1434; Richard Frederick Littledale, 1833-1890 Hymnal: Community of Christ Sings #47 (2013) Meter: 6.6.11 D Topics: Invocation Lyrics: 1 Come down, O Love divine;
seek thou this soul of mine,
and visit it with thine own ardour glowing;
O Comforter, draw near,
within my heart appear,
and kindle it, thy holy flame bestowing.
2 O let it freely burn,
till earthly passions turn
to dust and ashes in its heat consuming;
and let thy glorious light
shine ever on my sight,
and clothe me round, the while my path illuming.
3 Let holy charity
mine outward vesture be,
and lowliness become mine inner clothing—
true lowliness of heart,
which takes the humbler part,
and o'er its own shortcomings weeps with loathing.
4 And so the yearning strong,
with which the soul will long,
shall far out-pass the pow'r of human telling;
no soul can guess Love's grace,
till he become the place
wherein the Holy Spirit makes a dwelling. Scripture: Romans 8:14-16 Languages: English Tune Title: DOWN AMPNEY
Come Down, O Love Divine
The mercy seat
Author: Hugh Stowell Hymnal: Laudes Domini #48 (1890) Topics: Prayer and Invocation First Line: From every stormy wind that blows Lyrics: 1 From every stormy wind that blows,
From every swelling tide of woes,
There is a calm, a sure retreat;
'Tis found beneath the mercy-seat.
2 There is a place where Jesus sheds
The oil of gladness on our heads,
A place than all besides more sweet;
It is the blood-bought mercy-seat.
3 There is a scene where spirits blend,
Where friend holds fellowship with friend;
Though sundered far, by faith they meet,
Around one common mercy-seat.
4 There, there, on eagle wings we soar,
And sense and skin molest no more,
And heaven comes down our souls to greet,
And glory crowns the mercy-seat!
5 Oh! let my hand forget her skill,
My tongue be silent, cold, and still,
This throbbing heart forget to beat,
If I forget the mercy-seat. Languages: English Tune Title: RETREAT
The mercy seat
Come, My Way, My Truth, My Life
Author: George Herbert Hymnal: Voices Together #48 (2020) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Topics: Invocation Lyrics: 1 Come, my Way, my Truth, my Life:
such a way as gives us breath;
such a truth as ends all strife;
such a life as killeth death.
2 Come, my Light, my Feast, my Strength:
such a light as shows a feast;
such a feast as mends in length;
such a strength as makes a guest.
3 Come, my Joy, my Love, my Heart:
such a joy as none can move:
such a love as none can part;
such a heart as joys in love. Scripture: John 14:6-7 Tune Title: THE CALL
Come, My Way, My Truth, My Life
"The evil hour"
Author: Michael Bruce Hymnal: Laudes Domini #49 (1890) Topics: Prayer and Invocation First Line: Where high the heavenly temple stands Lyrics: 1 Where high the heavenly temple stands,
The house of God not made with hands,
A great High Priest our nature wears,
The Guardian of mankind appears.
2 Though now ascended up on high,
He bends on earth a brother's eye;
Partaker of the human name,
He knows the frailty of our frame.
3 Our Father-sufferer yet retains
A fellow-feeling of our pains;
And still remembers, in the skies,
His tears, his agonies, and cries.
4 In every pang that rends the heart,
The Man of Sorrows had a part;
He sympathizes with our grief,
And to the sufferer sends relief.
5 With boldness, therefore, at the throne,
Let us make all our sorrows known;
And ask the aid of heavenly power,
To help us in the evil hour. Languages: English Tune Title: OBERLIN

"God pities"
Author: Philip Doddridge Hymnal: Laudes Domini #50 (1890) Topics: Prayer and Invocation First Line: Our heavenly Father calls Lyrics: 1 Our heavenly Father calls,
And Christ invites us near;
With both, our friendship shall be sweet,
And our communion dear.
2 God pities all our griefs:
He pardons every day;
Almighty to protect our souls,
And wise to guide our way.
3 How large his bounties are!
What various stores of good,
Diffused from our Redeemer's hand,
And purchased with his blood.
4 Jesus, our living Head,
We bless thy faithful care;
Our Advocate before the throne,
And our Forerunner there.
5 Here fix, my roving heart!
Here wait, my warmest love!
Till the communion be complete,
In nobler scenes above. Languages: English Tune Title: SHIRLAND

Like the Murmur of the Dove's Song
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., 1944- Hymnal: Community of Christ Sings #50 (2013) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6 Topics: Invocation Lyrics: 1 Like the murmur of the dove’s song,
like the challenge of her flight,
like the vigor of the wind’s rush,
like the new flame’s eager might:
Come, Holy Spirit, come.
2 To the members of Christ’s body,
to the branches of the Vine,
to the church in faith assembled,
to her midst as gift and sign:
Come, Holy Spirit, come.
3 With the healing of division,
with the ceaseless voice of prayer,
with the pow’r to love and witness,
with the peace beyond compare:
Come, Holy Spirit, come.
