Break Thou The Bread Of Life
Author: Mary A. Lathbury Meter: 6.4.6.4 D Appears in 781 hymnals Topics: Processionals and Recessionals General Lyrics: 1. Break Thou the bread of life,
Dear Lord, to me,
As Thou didst break the loaves
Beside the sea;
Beyond the sacred page
I seek Thee, Lord;
My spirit pants for Thee,
O living Word!
2. Bless Thou the truth, dear Lord,
Ever to me,
As Thou didst bless the loaves
By Galilee;
Then shall all bondage cease,
All fetters fall;
And I shall find my peace,
My All in all!
3. Teach me to live, dear Lord,
Only for Thee,
As Thy disciples lived
In Galilee;
Then, all my struggles o'er,
Then vict'ry won,
I shall behold Thee, Lord,
The living One.
Amen. Used With Tune: BREAD OF LIFE

Christ The Lord Is Risen Today
Author: Jane E. Leeson Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 88 hymnals Topics: Processionals and Recessionals Easter First Line: Christ the Lord is ris'n today Lyrics: 1 Christ the Lord is ris'n today,
Christians, haste your vows to pay;
Offer ye your praises meet
At the Paschal Victim's feet.
For the sheep the Lamb hath bled,
Sinless in the sinner's stead;
Christ is ris'n today, we cry:
Now He lives, no more to die.
2 Christ, the Victim undefiled,
Man to God hath reconciled,
When, in strange and awful strife,
Met together death and life.
Christians, on this happy day,
Haste with joy your vows to pay;
Christ is ris'n today, we cry:
Now He lives, no more to die.
3 Christ, who once for sinners bled,
Now the first-born from the dead,
Throned in endless might and pow'r,
Lives and reigns for evermore.
Hail, eternal Hope on high!
Hail, Thou King of victory!
Hail, Thou Prince of life adored!
Help and save us, gracious Lord!
Amen.

Let eternal morning rise,

Author: John Cawood Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 729 hymnals Topics: Processionals and Recessionals Christmas Lyrics: 1 Hark, what mean those holy voices
Sweetly sounding thro' the skies?
Lo, th' angelic host rejoices;
Heav'nly hallelujahs rise.
Listen to the wondrous story,
Which they chant in hymns of joy:
Glory in the highest, glory!
Glory be to God most high!
2 Peace on earth, good-will from heaven,
Reaching far as man is found;
Souls redeemed, and sins forgiven;
Loud our golden harps shall sound.
Christ is born, the great Anointed;
Heav'n and earth His praises sing!
O receive whom God appointed
For your Prophet, Priest and King.
3 Hasten, mortals, to adore Him;
Learn His name and taste His joy;
Till in heav'n ye sing before Him,
Glory be to God most high!
Let us learn the wondrous story
Of our great Redeemer's birth;
Spread the brightness of His glory
Till it cover all the earth.

Hasten The Time Appointed
Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 61 hymnals Topics: Processionals and Recessionals Missions Lyrics: 1 Hasten the time appointed,
By prophets long foretold,
When all shall dwell together,
One Shepherd and one fold.
Let ev'ry idol perish,
To moles and bats be thrown,
And ev'ry prayer be offered
To God in Christ alone.
2 Let Jew and Gentile, meeting
From many a distant shore,
Around one altar kneeling,
One common Lord adore.
Let all that now divides us
Remove and pass away,
Like shadows of the morning
Before the blaze of day.
3 O long-expected dawning,
Come with thy cheering ray!
When shall the morning brighten,
The shadows flee away?
O sweet anticipation!
It cheers the watchers on,
To pray, and hope, and labor
Until dark night be gone.
Amen. Used With Tune: UNITY

Return to this Thy house of prayer;
Assembled in Thy sacred name,
Now we Thy parting promise claim:

Eternal, bid Thy Spirit rest,
And make our secret soul to be
A temple pure, and worthy Thee:

I Could Not Do Without Thee
Author: Frances R. Havergal Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 194 hymnals Topics: Processionals and Recessionals General Lyrics: 1 I could not do without Thee,
O Savior of the lost,
Whose wondrous love redeemed me,
At such tremendous cost;
Thy righteousness, Thy pardon,
Thy precious blood, must be
My only hope and comfort,
My glory and my plea.
2 I could not do without Thee,
I cannot stand alone,
I have no strength or goodness,
No wisdom of my own;
But Thou, beloved Savior,
Art all in all to me,
And weakness will be power
If leaning hard on Thee.
3 I could not do without Thee,
For years are fleeting fast,
And soon in solemn loneness
The river must be passed;
But Thou wilt never leave me,
And though the waves roll high,
I know Thou wilt be near me,
And whisper, It is I.

I Know Whom I Believe In
Author: Ernst Moritz Arndt Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 8 hymnals Topics: Processionals and Recessionals General Lyrics: 1 I know whom I believe in,
I know what firm abides,
When all around me fading
Away like vapor glides.
I know what lasts forever,
When all things shake and fall,
When wit the wise forsaketh,
And craft doth craft forestall.
2 It is the Light of Glory;
It is my Jesus, King;
It is the Rock I stand on;
It is of this I sing.
He nevermore shall fail me,
Deliv'rer, Shepherd mine,
He lighteth all my darkness,
He makes my path to shine.
3 He whom blood-stained they buried
In the still twilight hour,
He whom God waked from slumber,
He who arose in pow''r:
He for my guilt atoneth,
To me His Spirit gives,
Me with His grace He crowneth:
I live because He lives.
4 I know what I believe in,
I know what standeth fast,
And what, when earth shall crumble,
Uncrumbled, still shall last;
Thro' sorrow it bides with me,
Mine when to death I bow,
In heav'n it will assure me
A crown to deck my brow.
Amen. Used With Tune: WEBB

To wash my crimson stains
White in His blood so precious,
Till not a spot remains.
2 I lay my wants on Jesus,
All fullness dwells in Him;
He heals all my diseases,
He doth my soul redeem.
I lay my griefs on Jesus,
My burdens and my cares;
He from them all releases,
He all my sorrows shares.
3 I long to be like Jesus,
Meek, loving, lowly, mild;
I long to be like Jesus,
The Father's holy child.
I long to be with Jesus,
Amid the heav'nly throng,
To sing with saints His praises,
To learn the angels' song. Used With Tune: CRUCIFIX

Make our hearts all pure within;
