O God in Whom All Life Begins
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr. Hymnal: Celebrating Grace Hymnal #286 (2010) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 O God in whom all life begins,
who births the seed to fruit,
bestow Your blessing on our lives;
here let Your love find root.
Bring forth in us the Spirit’s gifts
of patience, joy, and peace;
deliver us from numbing fear,
and grant our faith increase.
2 Unite in mutual ministry
our minds and hands and hearts
that we may have the grace to seek
the power Your peace imparts.
So let our varied gifts combine
to glorify Your name
that in all things by word and deed
we may your love proclaim.
3 Through tears and laughter, grief and joy,
enlarge our trust and care;
so bind us in community
that we may risk and dare.
Be with us when we gather here
to worship, sing, and pray,
then send us forth in power and faith
to live the words we say. Topics: The Church as Community Formation; Church; Fellowship of Believers Languages: English Tune Title: NOEL
O God in Whom All Life Begins
My Church! My Church! My dear old Church
Author: Anon. Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #286 (1899) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 My Church! My Church! My dear old Church
My fathers’ and my own!
On prophets, and apostles built,
And Christ the cornerstone;
All else beside, by storm or tide,
May yet be overthrown;
But not my Church, my dear old Church,
My fathers’ and my own.
2 My Church! My Church! My dear old Church!
My glory and my pride!
Firm in the faith Immanuel taught,
She holds no faith beside,
Upon this rock, ‘gainst every shock,
Though gates of hell assail,
She stands secure, with promise sure,
“They never shall prevail.”
3 My Church! My Church! My dear old Church!
I love her ancient name;
And God forbid a child of hers
Should ever do her shame;
Her mother care I'll ever share;
Her child I am alone,
Till He who gave me to her arms,
Shall call me to His own.
4 My Church! My Church! My dear old Church!
Thy child would add a vow
To that whose token once was signed
Upon his infant brow;
Her mother care I'll ever share,
Her child I am alone.
My Church shall yet be dear to me,
My fathers' and my own.
Amen. Topics: Christ Foundation; Church Beauty and Glory of; Church Foundation of; Church Love for; Church nature of; Church Security of; Churches Corner-Stone laying; Confirmation; Love to the Church Languages: English Tune Title: NOEL

O God, thy power is wonderful
Psalm 145
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Hymns and Devotions for Daily Worship #297 (2024) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D First Line: Long as I live, I'll bless your name Lyrics: 1. Long as I live, I'll bless your name,
My King, my God of love;
My work and joy shall be the same
In the bright world above.
Great is the Lord, his pow'r unknown,
And let his praise be great;
I'll sing the honors of your throne,
Your works of grace repeat.
2. Your grace shall dwell upon my tongue,
And while my lips rejoice,
The souls who hear my sacred song
Shall join their cheerful voice.
Fathers to sons shall teach your name,
And children learn your ways;
Ages to come your truth proclaim,
And nations sound your praise.
3. Your glorious deeds of ancient date
Shall thru' the world be known;
Your arm of pow'r, your heav'nly state,
With public splendor shown.
The world is managed by your hands,
Your saints are ruled by love,
And your eternal kingdom stands,
Tho' rocks and hills remove. Topics: Ordinary Time Week 20 Scripture: Psalm 145 Languages: English Tune Title: NOEL
Psalm 145
It came upon the midnight clear
Author: Edmund Hamilton Sears (1810-1876) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #303 (2005) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 It came upon the midnight clear,
that glorious song of old,
from angels bending near the earth
to touch their harps of gold:
"Peace on the earth, good will to you
from heaven's all-gracious King!"
The world in solemn stillness lay
to hear the angels sing.
2 Still through the cloven skies they come,
with peaceful wings unfurled:
and still their heavenly music floats
o'er all the weary world;
above its sad and lowly plains
they bend on hovering wing,
and ever o'er its Babel-sounds
the blessèd angels sing.
3 But with the woes of sin and strife
the world has suffered long:
beneath the angels' hymn have rolled
two thousand years of wrong:
and warring humankind hears not
the love-song which they bring:
oh, hush the noise and still the strife
to hear the angels sing.
4 And you, beneath life's crushing load
whose forms are bending low,
who toil along the climbing way
with painful steps and slow,
look now! for glad and golden hours
come swiftly on the wing:
oh, rest beside the weary road,
and hear the angels sing.
5 For lo! the days are hastening on,
by prophet bards foretold,
when, with the ever-rolling years,
still dawns the Age of Gold,
when peace shall over all the earth
its ancient splendours fling,
and all the world give back the song
which now the angels sing. Topics: Life in Christ Christ Incarnate - Christmas and Epiphany; Angels Scripture: 2 Peter 3:13 Languages: English Tune Title: NOEL

Author: Edmund Hamilton Sears, 1810-1876 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #330 (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 It came upon the midnight clear,
that glorious song of old,
from angels bending near the earth
to touch their harps of gold:
'Peace on the earth, good-will to all,
from heav'n's all-gracious King!'
The world in solemn stillness lay,
to hear the angels sing.
2 Still through the cloven skies they come,
with peaceful wings unfurled;
and still their heav'nly music floats
o'er all the weary world;
above its sad and lowly plains
they bend on hov'ring wing;
and ever o'er its Babel-sounds
the blessed angels sing.
3 Yet with the woes of sin and strife
the world has suffered long;
beneath the angel-strain have rolled
two thousand years of wrong;
and warring humankind hears not
the love-song which they bring;
O just the noise of mortal strife,
and hear the angels sing!
4 And ye, beneath life's crushing load,
whose forms are bending low,
who toil along the climbing way
with painful steps and slow:
look now! for glad and golden hours
come swiftly on the wing,
O rest beside the weary road,
and hear the angels sing.
5 For lo! the days are hast'ning on,
by prophets seen of old,
when with the ever-circling years
comes round the age of gold;
when peace shall over all the earth
its ancient splendours fling,
and the whole world send back the song
which now the angels sing.
