Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., b. 1944 Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Not alone, but two by two, Jesus sent disciples out: Yoked to share their growing faith, Spurred by courage, slowed by doubt. Taking but a walking stick, Moneyless and sandal-shod, Forth they went to preach and heal, Trusting all their needs to God. 2 Have we still such daring hearts? Can we claim their faith and nerve? Do we truly love the world Jesus calls for us to serve? Can we plant again the seed Sown in mutual ministry, Patterned on a life of faith Rooted in community? 3 Holy Spirit, breathe through us With your unifying might; Kindle cleansing, melting flames Till our fractured wills unite. Bind our hearts in mutual love, Paradox that sets self free; Let our common witness show God's shared life in Trinity.

God Of Truth, And Power, And Love

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 God of truth, and power, and love, Father, friend of all mankind, Let on me Thy Spirit move, Influence my feeble mind; ’Twixt the serpent’s seed and me Prevalently interpose, Break the fatal amity, Make us everlasting foes. 2 Sin hath poisoned all my soul, Sin, the serpent’s cursèd seed: No one part in me is whole, Yet will I the promise plead; Promise of all-saving grace, Promise of an inward power, Able to redeem the race, Me, and all men to restore. 3 Breathe the breath of simple life, Oh! Be Abel born in me Previous to the legal strife, Innocent simplicity: Give me childishness to oppose All the subtle serpent’s art; Childishness no evil knows, Give me, Lord, a simple heart. 4 Or if pride hath this destroyed Turned into self-righteousness, Let the law supply the void, Seth succeed in Abel’s place. Deeply root Thy law within Parent of the wretched man; Check my forwardness to sin, Forcibly by fear restrain. 5 Bind in me the strong-man bind With the fetters of the law; Curb and thwart the carnal mind, Keep the man of sin in awe; Enemy to all that’s good, He can only be subdued By the sense of pardoning grace; Never will he quite give place. 6 Tell me Jesus died for me, Show some token of His love; Love and sin can never agree, Love shall still the stronger prove: Love in the first measure give, Sin shall then no longer sway, Flesh may for a season strive, I the Spirit shall obey. 7 Patiently I then shall wait For the woman’s noblest seed, Jesus Christ the mighty hate, Bruiser of the serpent’s head; O reveal Thy Son in me, Bring the perfect nature in, Now destroy the enmity, Now consume the man of sin. 8 Adam, flesh, and self, and pride, Antichrist, perdition’s son, Let him not in me abide, Cast him out, and reign alone; Slay the dragon in the sea, Make my soul Thy pure abode, Filled with all the deity, Swallowed up, and lost in God.

Holy, Holy, Holy Lord (Cullinan)

Author: R. Michael Cullinan Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Holy, holy, holy Lord Lyrics: 1. Holy, holy, holy Lord God in Heav’n—on earth adored; Holy Father, Holy Son, Holy Spirit, with Them One. Lord, Creator of all things, God of prophets, priests and kings: When th’appointed time had come, You sent us Your only Son. 2. Send upon our gifts this day Blessings from Your throne, we pray. May Your Spirit be outpoured At this entrance of the Lord. Let this bread and wine become Flesh and Blood of Your dear Son, That we may united be With our Lord eternally. 3. On the night He was betrayed, As the evening sun did fade, Our Lord Jesus Christ took bread, Giving thanks, blessed it and said: This, My Body, is for you, And My Blood—the Cov’nant New. Eat and drink this sacrament; My gift is your nourishment. 4. Jesus Christ, incarnate One, Son of God and Mary’s son, We recall Your humble birth: King of Heav’n and Lord of earth! We recall Your pain and grief, Endless anguish, no relief, When upon that tree You died For the Church, Your chosen Bride. 5. But no grave, the Lord, could hold; Hence the stone away was rolled, When the resurrected Lord Rose so that He might award Victory over death and grave To those whom He came to save. Now in heaven He shall reign ’Til we see Him come again. 6. Send to us Your Spirit, Lord; By His presence be outpoured Grace on grace and love on love— Every blessing from above. Bless Your Church on earth; preserve All her leaders as they serve. Be with all for whom we pray As we intercede this day. 7. Our hearts, longing from within, Ache for freedom from our sin. In Your mercy, hear our cry To be with Your saints on high. God our Father and the Son And the Spirit, with Them One: You we honor and adore With our praises evermore.
