God Who Gives to Life Its Goodness
Lord, We Thank Thee for the Pleasure
Author: Thomas W. Jex-Blake Meter: 8.7.8.7 D with refrain Appears in 9 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Lord, we thank Thee for the pleasure
That our happy lifetime gives,
For the boundless worth and treasure
Of a soul that ever lives;
Mind that looks before and after,
Lifting eyes to things above;
Human tears, and human laughter,
And the depths of human love.
2. For the thrill, the leap, the gladness
Of our pulses flowing free;
E’en for every touch of sadness
That may bring us nearer Thee;
But, above all other kindness,
Thine unutterable love,
Which, to heal our sin and blindness,
Sent Thy dear Son from above.
3. Teach us so our days to number
That we may be early wise;
Dreamy mist, or cloud, or slumber,
Never dull our heav’nward eyes.
Hearty be our work and willing,
As to Thee, and not to men;
For we know our soul’s fulfilling
Is in Heav’n, and not ’til then.

Through the Darkness of the Ages
Author: Hilary Jolly, 1945- Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Through the darkness of the ages,
through the sorrows of the days,
strength of weary generations,
lifting hearts in hope and praise,
light in darkness, joy in sorrow,
presence to allay all fears,
Jesus, you have kept your promise,
faithful through two thousand years.
2 Bounty of two thousand harvests,
beauty of two thousand springs;
He who framed the times and seasons
has vouchsafed us greater things.
Word of God who spoke creation
speaks forgiveness, speaks to save,
gathers still his ransomed people
in the life he freely gave.
3 Countless flowers have bloomed and withered,
countless noons are sealed in night,
shattered thrones and fallen empires,
realms and riches lost from sight.
Christ, your kingdom still increases
as the centuries unfold.
Grain that fell to earth and perished
has brought forth ten thousand-fold.
4 Master, we shall sing your praises,
man of sorrows, God of power,
for the measured march of seasons
shall at last bring in the hour
when, as lightning leaps the heavens,
you return to lead us home.
You have promised, "I am coming."
Swiftly, our Lord Jesus, come. Scripture: Revelation 22:20 Used With Tune: ABBOT'S LEIGH

Gracious Spirit, give your servants
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr. (b. 1944) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Gracious Spirit, give your servants
joy to set sin’s captives free,
hope to heal the brokenhearted,
peace to share love’s liberty.
Through us bring your balm of gladness
to the wounded and oppressed;
help us claim and show God’s favor
as a people called and blessed.
2 Word made flesh, who gave up glory
to become our great high priest,
taking on our human nature
to redeem the last and least:
let your courage and compassion
shape and guide our ministries;
as our Savior and our Shepherd,
lead us to the truth that frees.
3 Loving God, who birthed creation
from the nothingness of space,
kindling life where all was empty,
turning chaos into grace:
when we feel confused and fruitless,
dawn upon our restless night;
give us faith’s imagination,
hope’s renewing, love’s delight.
4 Triune God, eternal Being,
never ending, unbegun,
boundless grace and perfect justice,
righteous and forgiving One:
so enfold us in your mercy
that our wills and yours unite;
through us may the world behold you,
find your love, your truth, your light. Topics: Hymns and Spiritual Songs The Church's Mission Scripture: Genesis 1:1-2 Used With Tune: ABBOT'S LEIGH

There Are Many Ways of Sharing
Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: There are many ways of sharing, But God's Spirit gives each one Lyrics: There are many ways of sharing, But God’s Spirit gives each one.
There are different ways of caring; It’s one Lord whose work is done.
God, whose gifts are overflowing, May we hear you when you call;
Keep us serving, keep us growing, For the common good of all.
We’ve been baptized in the waters! We’ve been given work to do.
When you call your sons and daughters, You give gifts for serving you.
God, we join in celebration Of the talents you impart.
Bless each baptized one’s vocation; Give each one a servant’s heart.
All are blest by gifts you give us; Some are set apart to lead.
Give us Jesus’ love within us As we care for those in need.
Give us faith to make decisions; Give us joy to share your Word.
Give us unity and vision As we serve your church and world.

هللوا فالله حب
Author: جبرائيل جبور Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 هللوا فاللهُ حبٌّ
دائمٌ دون انتهاءْ
فلتمجّدْه البرايا
ولتمجده السماءْ
كلُّ نجم كلُّ زهرٍ
يُهدي لله الثناءْ
هللوا حمداً وشكراً
كلَّ صبحٍ ومساءْ
2 هللوا فاللهُ حبٌّ
شاملٌ للعالمينْ
يسعَ الأطفالَ عطفاً
روحه القدسُ الأمين
وإذا ما حل حزنٌ
بنفوسِ المؤمنينْ
فاض من روحه غمرٌ
لمؤاساة الحزينْ
3 هللوا فاللهُ حبٌّ
غافرٌ ذنبَ الأثيم
يهدي مَن ضلَّ سبيلاً
في الطريق المستقيمْ
رادعاً للشر عنه
قاهراً هول الجحيمْ
هللوا فاللهُ حبٌّ
حبُّه حبٌّ عظيم

Where is Bread?
Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: "Where is bread?" the great crowd murmured-- Lyrics: “Where is bread?” the great crowd murmured—
Thousands strong, yet all in need.
“Where is bread?” your people wondered,
Faced with such a crowd to feed.
Who, Lord Jesus, could have guessed it?
One small boy brought food to share.
Taking what he gave, you blessed it;
All were fed, with much to spare.
Where is bread? We know their yearning;
Every day, we wish for more.
God, in time, we’re slowly learning:
All we own can make us poor.
Our possessions can possess us,
Leaving hunger deep inside.
Christ our Bread, come now and bless us;
At your feast, we’re satisfied.
“Where is bread?” the call is rising;
Millions cry who must be fed.
God, your answer seems surprising:
“You, my Church, you give them bread.”
Bread to fill each hungry spirit,
Bread for hungry stomachs, too!
Give us bread and help us share it.
Richly blest, may we serve you.
