Church of God, Elect and Glorious

Author: James E. Seddon, 1915-1983 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 22 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Church of God, elect and glorious, Holy nation, chosen race; Called as God's own special people, Royal priests and heirs of grace: Know the purpose of your calling, Show to all his mighty deeds; Tell of love that knows no limits, Grace that meets all human needs. 2 God has called you out of darkness Into his most marv'lous light; Brought his truth to life within you, Turned your blindness into sight. Let your light so shine around you That God's name is glorified; And all find fresh hope and purpose In Christ Jesus crucified. 3 Once you were an alien people, Strangers to God's heart of love; But he brought you home in mercy, Citizens of heav'n above. Let his love flow out to others, Let them feel the Father's care; That they too may know his welcome And his countless blessings share. 4 Church of God, elect and holy, Be the people he intends; Strong in faith and swift to answer Each command your Master sends: Royal priests, fulfill your calling Through your sacrifice and prayer; Give your lives in joyful service Sing his praise, his love declare.

Hom-animoj! Kial ŝafe

Author: Frederick William Faber; Florence Harriet Hanbury Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: Hom-animoj! Kial ŝafe kuri disen pro ektim' Lyrics: 1. Hom-animoj! Kial ŝafe kuri disen pro ektim', stulte vagi for de amo profundega kaj sen lim'? Ĉu duone tiel dolĉe vokis iam ajn paŝtist', kiel al piedoj Siaj vokaj nin Jesuo Krist'? 2. Tiel vasta kiel maro estas Dia pardonem'; kaj pli milda Lia justo ol la homa tolerem'. La ĉielo akre sentas la malĝojon de la ter'; niajn malfortaĵojn juĝas kun kompata malsever'. 3. Amo Dia pli ampleksas, ol mezuras homa mens'. Kaj mirinde amaj estas Dia koro, Dia pens'. Pro la sango de Jesuo nin pardonas Dia grac'. El sufero de la Kapo por la membroj venas pac'. 4. Do kun pento proksimiĝu, kaj neniam dubu plu, sed akceptu plen-konfide sin-oferon de Jesu'. Se ni amus Lin pli simple, se Lin fidus nia kor', niaj vivoj sune brilus en la ĝojo de l' Sinjor'.

Thank you, Lord, for ones who teach us what has brought them to this place! May their faith-filled witness reach us; may we glimpse in them your grace. Strong in you, their strength uplifts us from our birth until life’s end; Spirit-filled, they give us gifts, as prophet, mentor, guide and friend. Christ our Lord, you walk beside us, giving daily work to do; Years go by and still you guide us as we seek to follow you.

Blessed Feasts of Blessed Martyrs

Author: John M. Neale, 1818-1866 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 28 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Blessed feasts of blessed martyrs, Holy women, holy men, With our love and admiration, Greet we your return again. Worthy deeds are theirs, and wonders, Worthy of the name they bore; We, with joyful praise and singing, Honor them for evermore. 2 Faith prevailing, hope unfailing, Loving Christ with single heart, Thus they, glorious and victorious Bravely bore the martyr's part By contempt of ev'ry anguish, By unyielding battle done; Victors at the last, they triumph With the host of angels one. 3 Therefore, all that reign in glory, Strong and sure with Christ on high, Join to ours your supplication When before him we draw nigh, Praying that, this life completed, All its fleeting moments past, By his grace we may be worthy Of eternal bliss at last.
