Lord God, your love has called us here
Author: Brian Wren (born 1936) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 34 hymnals Topics: God's Church Love and Devotion; Pentecost The Holy Spirit; Pentecost 10 The Mind of Christ; Pentecost 11 The Serving Community; Pentecost 4 The Freedom God Gives; Pentecost 7 The More Excellent Way; The Fall; Trinity Sunday The Trinity Lyrics: 1 Lord God, your love has called us here
as we, by love, for love were made;
your living likeness still we bear,
though marred, dishonoured, disobeyed.
We come, with all our heart and mind
your call to hear, your love to find.
2 We come with self-inflicted pains
of broken trust and chosen wrong,
half-free, half-bound by inner chains,
by social forces swept along,
by powers and systems close confined
yet seeking hope for all humankind.
3 Lord God, in Christ you call our name
and then receive us as your own
not through some merit, right or claim
but by your gracious love alone.
We strain to glimpse your mercy-seat
and find you kneeling at our feet.
4 Then take the towel, and break the bread,
and humble us, and call us friends;
suffer and serve till all are fed
and show how grandly love intends
to work till all creation sings,
to fill all worlds, to crown all things.
5 Lord God, in Christ you set us free
your life to live, your joy to share:
give us your Spirit's liberty
to turn from guilt and dull despair,
and offer all that faith can do
while love is making all things new. Used With Tune: MELITA
Lord God, your love has called us here

o'er the world's tempestuous sea;
guard us, guide us, keep us, feed us —
for we have no help but thee,
yet possessing every blessing
if our God our Father be.
2 Saviour, breathe forgiveness o'er us:
all our weakness thou dost know,
thou didst tread this earth before us,
thou didst feel its keenest woe;
through the dreary desert, weary,
in obedience thou didst go.
3 Spirit of our God, descending,
fill our hearts with heavenly joy,
love with every passion blending,
pleasure that can never cloy;
thus provided, pardoned, guided,
nothing can our peace destroy. Used With Tune: MANNHEIM

ere the worlds began to be,
Christ is Alpha and Omega,
Christ the source, the ending he,
of the things that are and have been,
and that future years shall see,
evermore and evermore.
2 At his word the worlds were framed.
He commanded, it was done:
heaven and earth and depths of ocean
in their threefold order one;
all that grows beneath the shining
of the moon and burning sun,
evermore and evermore.
3 O that birth for ever blessèd!
When the Virgin, full of grace,
by the Holy Ghost conceiving,
bare the Saviour of our race,
and the babe, the world's redeemer,
first revealed his sacred face,
evermore and evermore.
4 This is he whom seers in old time
chanted of with one accord,
whom the voices of the prophets
promised in their faithful word;
now he shines, the long-expected;
let creation praise its Lord,
evermore and evermore.
5 O ye heights of heaven, adore him;
angel hosts, his praises sing;
powers, dominions, bow before him,
and extol our God and King;
let no tongue on earth be silent,
every voice in concert ring,
evermore and evermore.
6 Christ, to thee with God most blessèd,
and, O Holy Ghost, to thee,
hymn and chant and high thanksgiving,
and unwearied praises be,
honour, glory, and dominion
and eternal victory,
evermore and evermore. Used With Tune: DIVINUM MYSTERIUM

I rest my weary soul in thee;
I give thee back the life I owe,
that in thine ocean depths its flow
may richer, fuller be.
2 O Light that followest all my way,
I yield my flickering torch to thee;
my heart restores its borrowed ray,
that in thy sunshine’s blaze its day
may brighter, fairer be.
3 O Joy that seekest me through pain,
I cannot close my heart to thee;
I trace the rainbow through the rain,
and feel the promise is not vain,
that morn shall tearless be.
4 O Cross that liftest up my head,
I dare not ask to fly from thee;
I lay in dust life’s glory dead,
and from the ground there blossoms red
life that shall endless be. Used With Tune: ST. MARGARET
