Here hangs a man discarded

Author: Brian Arthur Wren, 1936- Hymnal: Together in Song #356 (1999) Meter: 7.6.7.6 Topics: Jesus Christ Incarnation Lyrics: 1 Here hangs a man discarded, a scarecrow hoisted high, a nonsense pointing nowhere to all who hurry by. 2 Can such a clown of sorrows still bring a useful word when faith and love seem phantoms and every hope absurd? 3 Can he give help or comfort to lives by comfort bound, where drums of dazzling progress give strangely hollow sound? 4 Life emptied of all meaning, drained out in bleak distress, can share in broken silence our deepest emptiness; 5 and love that freely entered the pit of life's despair can name our hidden darkness and suffer with us there. 6 Christ, in our darkness risen, help all who long for light to hold the hand of promise, and walk into the night.

Mark how the Lamb of God, self-offering

Author: Carl P.

Hear how the voice from heaven is saying, 'Lo, this is my belovèd Son.' See how in dovelike form the Spirit descends on God's Anointed One. 2 From this assurance of God's favour Christ goes into the wilderness, there to endure a time of testing, preparing him to teach and bless. So we, by water and the Spirit baptized into Christ's ministry, are often led to paths of service through mazes of adversity. 3 Grant us, O God, the strength and courage to live the faith our lips declare; bless us in our baptismal calling; Christ's royal priesthood help us share. Turn us from every false allegiance, that we may trust in Christ alone: make of us now a chosen people transformed by love to be your own.
