Love Divine, All Loves Excelling

Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: Journeysongs (2nd ed.) #746 (2003) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Sunday Celebrations in the Absence of a Priest Entrance Song Lyrics: 1 Love divine, all loves excelling, Joy of heav'n, to earth come down! Fix in us your humble dwelling; All your faithful mercies crown. Jesus, source of all compassion, Love unbounded, love all pure; Visit us with your salvation, Let your love in us endure. 2 Come, almighty to deliver; Let us all your life receive; Suddenly return and never, Nevermore your temples leave. Lord, we would be always blessing, Serve you as your hosts above, Pray, and praise you without ceasing, Glory in your precious love. 3 Finish then your new creation, Pure and spotless, gracious Lord; Let us see your great salvation Perfectly in you restored. Changed from glory into glory, Till in heav'n we take our place, Till we sing before the almighty, Lost in wonder, love and praise. Scripture: Psalm 106:4 Languages: English Tune Title: HYFRYDOL

O sweet and blessèd country that eager hearts expect! Jesus in mercy bring us to that dear land above, where you, with God the Father and Spirit, reign in love.

As stars adorn the night-veiled sky

Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr. (b. 1944) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #748 (2005) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Church Celebrates Oneness with the Church in Heaven Lyrics: 1 As stars adorn the night-veiled sky, arrayed like jewels rare and bright, so shine God's saints in every age to give the world new hop, new light. 2 The light saints bear is not their own but shines through them as gift and sign: to show how God can use and bless frail human means for ends divine. Through saints we glimpse the light of Christ, the Morning Star that crowns the night, whose rising heralds God's new day, the promised dawn of life and light. 4 That light is ours to claim and share, not merely praise or gaze upon: for all who are baptized become light-bearers through the Risen One. 5 The saints inspire and challenge us our holy calling to embrace: to bear Christ's light in our own day, to be the vessels of God's grace.

There's a Wideness in God's Mercy

Author: Frederick W. Faber, 1814-1863 Hymnal: Journeysongs (2nd ed.) #748 (2003) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Sunday Celebrations in the Absence of a Priest Entrance Song Lyrics: 1 There’s a wideness in God’s mercy Like the wideness of the sea: There’s a kindness in God's justice Which is more than liberty. There is plentiful redemption In the blood that has been shed; There is joy for all the members In the sorrows of the Head. 2 For the love of God is broader Than the measures of our mind; And the heart of the Eternal Is most wonderfully kind. If our love were but more simple We should take him at his word; And our lives would be illumined By the presence of our Lord. 3 Troubled souls, why will you scatter Like a crowd of frightened sheep? Foolish hearts! why will you wander From a love so true and deep? There is welcome for the sinner And more graces for the good; There is mercy with the Savior, There is healing in his blood. Scripture: Psalm 33:4-5 Languages: English Tune Title: IN BABILONE

God Is Love

Author: Timothy Rees, 1874-1939 Hymnal: Journeysongs (2nd ed.) #749 (2003) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Sunday Celebrations in the Absence of a Priest Entrance Song First Line: God is Love, let heav'n adore him Lyrics: 1 God is Love, let heav'n adore him; God is Love, let earth rejoice; Let creation sing before him And exalt him with one voice. God who laid the earth's foundation, God who spread the heav'ns above, God who breathes through all creation: God is Love, eternal Love. 2 God is Love; and love enfolds us, All the world in one embrace: With unfailing grasp God holds us, Ev'ry child of ev'ry race. And when human hearts are breaking Under sorrow's iron rod, Then we find that self-same aching Deep within the heart of God. 3 God is Love; and though with blindness Sin afflicts all human life, God's eternal loving kindness Guides us through our earthly strife. Sin and death and hell shall never O'er us final triumph gain; God is Love, so Love for ever O'er the universe must reign. Scripture: Psalm 104:5 Languages: English Tune Title: ABBOT'S LEIGH
