Lord, You in Your perfect wisdom
Author: Timothy Rees, 1874-1939 Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook #610 (2004) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Lord, You in Your perfect wisdom
times and seasons all arrange,
working out Your changeless purpose
in a world of ceaseless change;
You did form our ancient nation,
guiding it through all the days,
to unfold in it Your purpose
to Your glory and Your praise.
2 To our shores remote, benighted,
barrier of the western waves,
tidings in Your love You sent us,
tidings of the cross that saves.
Saints and heroes strove and suffered
here Your gospel to proclaim;
we, the heirs of their endeavour,
tell the honour of their name.
3 Still Your ancient purpose standing
every change and chance above;
still Your ancient Church remaining,
witness to Your changeless love.
Grant us vision, Lord, and courage
to fulfil Your work begun;
in the Church and in the nation,
King of kings, Your will be done. Languages: English Tune Title: BLAENWERN

Glorious Things of You Are Spoken
Author: John Newton, 1725-1807 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Worship #647 (2006) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of you are spoken,
Zion, city of our God!
He whose word cannot be broken
formed you for his own abode.
On the Rock of Ages founded,
what can shake your sure repose?
With salvation's walls surrounded,
you may smile at all your foes.
2 See, the streams of living waters,
springing from eternal love,
well supply your sons and daughters,
and all fear of want remove.
Who can faint, while such a river
ever will their thirst assuage?
Grace which, like the Lord, the giver,
never fails from age to age.
3 Round each habitation hov'ring,
see the cloud and fire appear
for a glory and a cov'ring,
showing that the Lord is near.
Thus deriving from their banner
light by night and shade by day,
safe they feed upon the manna
which God gives them on their way.
4 Savior, since of Zion's city
I through grace a member am,
let the world deride or pity,
I will glory in your name.
Fading are the world's vain pleasures,
all their boasted pomp and show;
solid joys and lasting treasures
none but Zion's children know.

Lord, We Hear Your Word
Author: Margaret Clarkson, 1915- Hymnal: Worship and Rejoice #671 (2003) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: Lord, we hear your Word with gladness Lyrics: 1 Lord, we hear your Word with gladness:
you have spoken– we rejoice:
words of love and life and freedom–
help us make their truth our choice!
Now in holy celebration
for your Word we worship you;
spoken, written, known in Jesus,
ours today to prove anew.
2 May we hear with understanding,
by your Spirit taught and led;
may the springs of all our being
by your Living Word be fed;
may our hearts accept with meekness
all the grace your light makes known;
may obedience mark our footsteps
till we make each word our own!
3 You have spoken– yours the fullness,
ours the wealth of this your Word:
debtors, then, as living letters
we must make your Gospel heard!
By your Spirit’s power transform us;
shed your saving Light abroad
till our lives by love in action
show our world the truth of God!

Mountain Brook with Rushing Waters
Author: William W. Reid, Jr. Hymnal: Chalice Hymnal #690 (1995) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Mountain brook with rushing waters,
eagle perched in lofty tree,
flowering hillside in the springtime,
white-tailed deer alert and free!
Beauty, beauty all around us!
Jubilate! Sing for joy!
Help us, God, preserve earth’s splendor
for tomorrow’s world to see.
2 Pure the water freshly flowing
toward its ocean destiny,
clean the air of God’s creation,
rich the soil, the mine, the sea.
"Earth is good!" God’s word proclaimed it.
Jubilate! Sing for joy!
Save us, God, from wasteful living,
from pollution’s tragedy.
3 Waving fields of wheat and barley,
giant apples juicy red,
cattle grazing in the pasture;
by God’s bounty we are fed!
Well supplied the world around us!
Jubilate! Sing for joy!
May no greed or warring madness
scorch the earth or rob our bread.
4 Keep us faithful in the struggle
to conserve earth’s threatened store
as we fight to save the forest,
clean the stream, protect the shore.
God and humans work together,
Jubilate! Sing for joy!
Partners working till as stewards
we can say, "Earth’s good!" once more. Topics: God's World Care of the Earth; Care of the Earth; Nature Languages: English Tune Title: BLAENWERN

joy of heaven, to earth come down,
fix in us thy humble dwelling,
all thy faithful mercies crown.
Jesu, thou art all compassion,
pure unbounded love thou art;
visit us with thy salvation,
enter every trembling heart.
2 Come, almighty to deliver,
let us all thy grace receive;
suddenly return, and never,
never more thy temples leave.
Thee we would be always blessing,
serve thee as thy hosts above;
pray, and praise thee, without ceasing,
glory in thy perfect love.
3 Finish then thy new creation:
pure and spotless let us be;
let us see thy great salvation
perfectly restored in thee;
Changed from glory into glory
till in heaven we take our place,
till we cast our crowns before thee,
lost in wonder, love, and praise.

God is here! As we his people
Author: Fred Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #730 (2010) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 God is here! As we your people
meet to offer praise and prayer,
may we find in fuller measure
what it is in Christ we share.
Here, as in the world around us,
all our varied skills and arts
wait the coming of the Spirit
into open minds and hearts.
2 Here are symbols to remind us
of our lifelong need of grace;
here are table, font and pulpit,
here the cross has central place;
herein honesty of preaching,
here in silence, as in speech,
here, in newness and renewal
God the Spirit comes to each.
3 Here our children find a welcome
in the Shepherd's flock and fold,
here, as bread and wine are taken,
Christ sustains us as of old.
Here the servants of the Servant
seek in worship to explore
what it means in daily living
to believe and to adore.
4 Lord of all, of church and kingdom,
in an age of change and doubt,
keep us faithful to the gospel,
help us work your purpose out.
Here, in this day's dedication,
all we have to give, receive;
we, who cannot live without you,
we adore you! We believe! Topics: Sacraments and Other Occasions Dedication Festival Languages: English Tune Title: BLAENWERN
