Author: David Mowbray, 1938- Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #365 (2010) Meter: 8.5.8.5.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Come to us, creative Spirit,
in our Father's house,
every human talent hallow,
hidden skills arouse,
that, within your earthly temple,
wise and simple
may rejoice.
2 Poet, painter, music-maker,
all your treasures bring;
craftsman, actor, graceful dancer,
make your offering;
join your hands in celebration!
Let creation
shout and sing!
3 Word from God eternal springing,
fill our minds, we pray,
and in all artistic vision
give integrity:
may the flame within us burning
kindle yearning
day by day.
4 In all places and forever,
glory be expressed
to the Son, with God the Father
and the Spirit blest:
in our worship and our living
keep us striving
for the best. Topics: General Hymns Praise and Thanksgiving Languages: English Tune Title: ANGEL VOICES
