O Spirit of the living God

Author: J. Montgomery Appears in 382 hymnals Topics: The Church Ordinations Lyrics: 1 O Spirit of the living God, In all Thy plenitude of grace, Where'er the foot of man hath trod, Descend on our apostate race. 2 Give tongues of fire and hearts of love, To preach the reconciling word; Give power and unction from above, Whene'er the joyful sound is heart. 3 Be darkness, at Thy coming light; Confusion, order, in Thy path; Souls without strength inspire with might, Bid mercy triumph over wrath. 4 Convert the nations! far and nigh The triumphs of the Cross record; The Name of Jesus glorify, Till every people call Him Lord. Used With Tune: GRACE CHURCH

God of the Prophets! Bless the Prophets' Sons

Author: Dennis Wortman Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 63 hymnals Topics: Acts of the Church Ordination Lyrics: 1 God of the prophets! Bless the prophets' sons; Elijah's mantle o'er Elisha cast; Each age its solemn task may claim but once; Make each one nobler, stronger than the last. 2 Anoint them prophets! Make their ears attent To your divinest speech; their hearts awake To human need; their lips make eloquent To gird the right and every evil break. 3 Anoint them priests! Strong intercessors they For pardon, and for charity and peace! O that with them might pass the world, astray, Into the dear Christ's life of sacrifice! 4 Make them apostles! Heralds of the cross; Forth may they go to tell all realms your grace; Inspired of God, may they count all but loss, And stand at last with joy before your face. Amen. Scripture: Acts 3:25 Used With Tune: TOULON

Amen. Scripture: Psalm 23 Used With Tune: EVAN Text Sources: Para. in the Scottish Psalter, 1650
