O Splendor of God's Glory Bright
Author: Ambrose of Milan; Robert S. Bridges Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #679 (1989) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. O splendor of God's glory bright,
O thou that bringest light from light;
O Light of light, light's living spring,
O day, all days illumining.
2. O thou true Sun, on us thy glance
let fall in royal radiance;
the Spirit's sanctifying beam
upon our earthly senses stream.
3. The Father, too, our prayers implore,
Father of glory evermore;
the Father of all grace and might,
to banish sin from our delight.
4. To guide whate'er we nobly do,
with love all envy to subdue;
to make ill fortune turn to fair,
and give us grace our wrongs to bear.

The Church of Christ, in Every Age
Author: Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #694 (1995) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: The church of Christ, in ev'ry age Lyrics: 1 The church of Christ, in ev'ry age
beset by change, but Spirit-led,
must claim and test her heritage
and keep on rising from the dead.
2 Across a world, across the street,
the victims of injustice cry
for shelter and for bread to eat,
and never live until they die.
3 Then let the servant church arise,
a caring church that longs to be
a partner in Christ's sacrifice,
and clothed in Christ's humanity.
4 For he alone, whose blood was shed,
can cure the fever in our blood,
and teach us how to share our bread
and feed the starving multitude.
5 We have no mission but to serve
in full obedience to our Lord,
to care for all, without reserve,
to spread his liberating word. Topics: Peace and Justice; Church--Community in Christ; Justice; Social ministry; Spread of the Gospel Scripture: Matthew 25:31-46 Languages: English Tune Title: WAREHAM

Jesus, where'er thy people meet
Author: William Cowper (1731-1800) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #696 (2013) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, where'er thy people meet,
there they behold thy mercy-seat;
where'er they seek thee thou art found,
and every place is hallowed ground.
2 For thou, within no walls confined,
inhabitest the humble mind;
such ever bring thee when they come,
and, going, take thee to their home.
3 Dear Shepherd of thy chosen few,
thy former mercies here renew;
here to our waiting hearts proclaim
the sweetness of thy saving name.
4 Here may we prove the power of prayer
to strengthen faith and sweeten care,
to teach our faint desires to rise,
and bring all heaven before our eyes.
5 Lord, we are few, but thou art near;
nor short thine arm, nor deaf thine ear:
O rend the heavens, come quickly down,
and make a thousand hearts thine own! Topics: Church nature of; Jesus Name; Prayer; Proper 12 Year C; Proper 18 Year A; The Fourth Sunday before Lent Year A; The Third Sunday of Lent Year A Scripture: Isaiah 57:15 Languages: English Tune Title: WAREHAM

Author: Ray Palmer, 1808-1887; St. Bernard of Clairvaux, 1091-1153 Hymnal: Worship (4th ed.) #705 (2011) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, joy of loving hearts,
The fount of life and light of all,
From ev'ry bliss that earth imparts
We turn, unfilled, to hear your call.
2 For you our restless spirits yearn,
Where'er our changing lot is cast;
Glad, when your presence we discern,
Blest, when by faith we hold you fast.
3 We taste you, everliving bread,
And long to feast upon you still.
We drink of you, the fountainhead,
That you our thirsting souls may fill.
4 O Jesus, ever with us stay!
Make all our moments calm and bright!
O chase the night of sin away!
Shed o'er the world your holy light! Topics: Comfort Languages: English Tune Title: WAREHAM

Though Thoughtless Thousands Choose the Road
Author: Joseph Hoskins, 1745-1788 Hymnal: Christian Worship #718 (2021) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Though thoughtless thousands choose the road
that leads the soul away from God,
this happiness, dear Lord, be mine:
to live and die entirely thine.
2 In Christ, by faith, I wish to live,
from him my life, my all, receive,
to him devote my fleeting hours,
serve him alone with all my pow'rs.
3 Christ is my everlasting all.
to him I look, on him I call;
he will my ev'ry need supply
in time and through eternity.
4 Soon will the Lord, my life, appear;
soon shall I end my trials here,
leave sin and sorrow, death and pain.
To live is Christ; to die is gain.
5 Soon will the saints in glory meet,
soon walk through ev'ry golden street
and sing on ev'ry blissful plain,
"To live is Christ; to die is gain."

As stars adorn the night-veiled sky
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr. (b. 1944) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #748 (2005) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 As stars adorn the night-veiled sky,
arrayed like jewels rare and bright,
so shine God's saints in every age
to give the world new hop, new light.
2 The light saints bear is not their own
but shines through them as gift and sign:
to show how God can use and bless
frail human means for ends divine.
Through saints we glimpse the light of Christ,
the Morning Star that crowns the night,
whose rising heralds God's new day,
the promised dawn of life and light.
4 That light is ours to claim and share,
not merely praise or gaze upon:
for all who are baptized become
light-bearers through the Risen One.
5 The saints inspire and challenge us
our holy calling to embrace:
to bear Christ's light in our own day,
to be the vessels of God's grace. Topics: The Church Celebrates Oneness with the Church in Heaven; Communion of Saints; Jesus Names and images for; Light Scripture: 1 Peter 2:9 Languages: English Tune Title: WAREHAM
