They Walked with God

Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854 Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Festival: Renewal of the Unitas Fratrum; Moravian festivals--August 14 First Line: They walked with God in peace and love Lyrics: 1 They walked with God in peace and love but failed with one another; while sternly for the faith they strove, they fell out with each other. But he in whom they put their trust, who knew their frames, that they were dust, with pity healed their weakness. 2 He found them in his house of prayer with one accord assembled, and so revealed his presence there; they wept for joy and trembled. One cup they drank, one bread they broke, on baptism shared, one language spoke, forgiving and forgiven. 3 Then forth they went, with tongues of flame in one blessed theme delighting; the love of Jesus, and his name, God's children all uniting. That love our theme and watchword still; the law of love may we fulfill - give love as love we're given. Scripture: Acts 11:1-18 Used With Tune: SPERATUS

Heavenly Spirit, all others Transcending

Author: G. T. Rygh; Johan Nordahl Brun Appears in 11 hymnals Topics: Church Festivals Pentecost Lyrics: 1 Heavenly Spirit, all others transcending, Thou who with Father and Son dost abide! Come Thou, our spirits in unity blending, Come and make ready the heavenly bride! Calling and gathering, and Jesus declaring, Building God's Church, shedding light from above, Come, O Thou Spirit of God, never tiring. Come and interpret God's wonderful love! 2 Merciful Jesus, with love never failing, Sending Thy Spirit, the pledge ever new, That Thy atonement for all is availing, Faith ever sees that Thy promise is true. Crowned are Thy servants with heavenly fire, Speaking with hearts and with tongues all aflame; Heavenly Spirit, our voices inspire, That we may sing of His glorious name! 3 Heav'nly Consoler, with unction celestial, Heal Thou the wounds of each sin-burdened heart! Strengthen our faith, and with zeal Pentecostal Fill our faint souls, and Thy blessings impart! Create within us new hearts and new spirits; Lead us in truth, and sustain us in woe; Teach us true faith in the dear Savior's merits, So that at death we Thy power may know!

He sat to watch o'er customs paid

Author: William Bright, 1824-1901 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 15 hymnals Topics: The Christian Year Festivals and Other Holy Days: Proper Lyrics: 1 He sat to watch o’er customs paid, A man of scorned and hardening trade, Alike the symbol and the tool Of foreign masters’ hated rule. 2 But grace within his breast had stirred; There needed but the timely word: It came, true Lord of souls, from thee, That royal summons, 'Follow me.' 3 Enough, when thou wast passing by, To hear thy voice, to meet thine eye: He rose, responsive to the call, And left his task, his gains, his all. 4 O wise exchange! with these to part, And lay up treasure in the heart-- Who now with crown of light doth shine Among the apostolic line. 5 Come, Saviour, as in days of old; Pass where the world has strongest hold, And faithless care and selfish greed Are thorns that choke the holy seed. 6 Who keep thy gifts, O bid them claim The steward’s, not the owner’s name; Who yield up all for thy dear sake, Let them of Matthew’s wealth partake. Used With Tune: ALFRETON

A-men. 4 The saints of God their vigil keep, While yet their mortal bodies sleep, Till from the dust they too shall rise And soar triumphant to the skies: O happy saints, rejoice and sing; He quickly comes, your Lord and King! 5 O God of saints! to thee we cry; O Saviour! plead for us on high; O Holy Ghost! our guide and friend, Grant us thy grace till life shall end; That with all saints our rest may be In that bright Paradise with thee! Amen. Used With Tune: NYBERG
