Called to Gather As God's People

Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., b. 1944 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Called to gather as God's people, We assemble in this place To unite our hearts and voices In thanksgiving for God's grace: For the birthing of creation, For Christ's rising from death's hold, For the coming of the Spirit, Week by week claimed and retold. 2 Taught and formed by proclamation, We await God's promised word: Song and story, psalm and precept, All the range of scripture heard. By this ancient, living witness We are summoned to confess How we fall short, yet can trust that God will hear, forgive, and bless. 3 Fed at Christ's abundant table, We partake of holy food, Wake the gifts of hope and mem'ry, Taste and see that God is good. So our mingled lives are taken, Blessed and broken for Christ's sake, Given out to feed and comfort Bodies, minds, and hearts that ache. 4 Sent to share the Spirit's blessing, We go forth renewed, restored, Humbled by the task before us, Strengthened by the Love outpoured. Finding faith confirmed in action, Led by hope through each new day, We are called to be God's people, Living what we sing and pray.

Lord, A Vessel Thou Has Fashioned

Author: Stephen Popovich Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Lord, a vessel Thou hast fashioned Lyrics: 1 Lord, a vessel Thou hast fashioned, Not to serve the world we see, Where the snares of futile passion Seek to re-envelop me, But to move in righteous freedom, In the world of my first birth, By advancing in Thy kingdom For Thy use upon the earth. 2 Wealth and pleasure gild the marriage Of hell’s words to vanity— Binding all the cursed that perish; Lost in dust eternally. Prune in me that which is empty All that withers as a flower. Grow in me of heaven’s plenty Giving increase by Thy power. 3 Thou hast freed us like a sparrow Reaching toward an upward goal Of Thy calling, near yet narrow, From hell’s chains to heaven’s fold; Lift my heart to know the voices Of Thy praise in heaven sung, And below to count the choicest Earthly treasures as but dung. 4 We have died in Thee now risen To the Father’s throne above Where our life is firmly hidden In Thy fellowship of love. Help my hands be true and holy And my feet steadfast and sure, That my works at Thy appearing Will as gold and jewels endure. Used With Tune: NETTLETON

Giving God, We Pause and Wonder

Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Giving God, we pause and wonder: What would happen if we tithed-- Lyrics: Giving God, we pause and wonder: What would happen if we tithed— If we gave our gifts, Creator, hearts and hands all opened wide? We might learn, by gladly sharing, Not to trust in things we own But to risk—it's part of caring—And to trust in you alone. We could do abundant mission, Sharing Christ who claims and frees. We could reach out with new vision In creative ministries. No more bound by limitations Of what churches can't afford, We could learn with jubilation Whole new ways to serve you, Lord. In each country that was struggling, We could build a thousand schools, We could feed a million orphans And give countless farmers tools. As we gladly shared your blessings, Then the world might want to know: "See! How loving are those Christians! Who's the One who makes them so?" God, we know we cannot pay you For your love in Christ your Son. Gifts and tithes are just a "thank you"—Ways to pass your blessings on. We have learned that, in our sharing, We receive more than we give. By your Spirit, make us daring, In this joyful way to live.
