How Clear Is Our Vocation, Lord
Author: Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: Voices United #504 (1996) Meter: 8.6.8.8.6.6 Lyrics: 1 How clear is our vocation, Lord,
when once we heed your call:
to live according to your word,
and daily learn, refreshed, restored,
that you are over all
and will not let us fall.
2 But if, forgetful, we should find
your yoke is hard to bear,
if worldly pressures fray the mind
and love itself cannot unwind
its tangled skein of care:
our inward life repair.
3 We mark your saints, how they become
in hindrances more sure,
whose joyful virtues put to shame
the casual way we wear your name,
and by our faults obscure
your power to cleanse and cure.
4 In what you give us, here, to do,
together or alone,
in old routines and ventures new,
may we not cease to look to you,
the cross you hung upon --
all you endeavoured done.

Christ Be the Way in Whom We Walk
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, b. 1926 Hymnal: Christian Worship #516 (2021) Meter: 8.6.8.8.6.6 Lyrics: 1 Christ be the way in whom we walk
the pilgrim path we tread;
companion, teacher, guide and goal,
the guardian of the ransomed soul,
the first-born from the dead,
the first-born from the dear.
2 Christ be the truth in whom we trust
when all seems shifting sand;
to strengthen faith and comfort grief,
to still the storms of unbelief,
the rock on which we stand,
the rock on which we stand.
3 Christ be the life in whom we live,
in whom all journeys end;
the way, the truth, the life indeed,
the living Savior sinners need,
and our unfailing friend,
and our unfailing friend. Topics: Redeemer Scripture: John 14:6 Languages: English Tune Title: REPTON

Be Present, Spirit of the Lord
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, b. 1926 Hymnal: RitualSong (2nd ed.) #658 (2016) Meter: 8.6.8.8.6.6 Lyrics: 1 Be present, Spirit of the Lord,
Let sounds of earth be dumb;
The Father's love be shed abroad,
The dew of blessing on us poured:
O silent Spirit, come!
O silent Spirit, come!
2 In pow'r unseen upon us rest,
Your gracious gifts impart:
A mind renewed, a spirit blessed,
A life where Christ is manifest,
An understanding heart,
An understanding heart.
3 Love's sov'reign work of grace fulfill,
Our souls to Christ incline,
Intent to do the Father's will
And stand by faith before him still
In righteousness divine,
In righteousness divine.
4 O Spirit, come, and with us stay;
Make every heart your home.
So work in us that we who pray
May walk with Christ in wisdom's way:
O Holy Spirit, come!
O Holy Spirit, come! Topics: Pentecost; Holy Spirit Languages: English Tune Title: REPTON
Be Present, Spirit of the Lord
