Called to Gather as God's People

Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., 1944- Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: Centering 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. Scripture: Romans 10:17 Used With Tune: O DU LIEBE MEINER LIEBE

Troeger, 1945- Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Centering Lyrics: 1 For remembered music sounding when the last note fades away and our hearts are left abounding with new confidence to pray, for the preludes that recenter each distracted, fussing soul so the peace of God may enter and restore and make us whole, 2 for the hymns of adoration that unite us in one voice as we join the whole creation and together we rejoice, for laments and psalms of sorrow that release our needed tears and that help us reach tomorrow and to look beyond our fears, 3 for the carols waking wonder at the birth of Christ our Lord, for a tombstone split asunder by an alleluia chord, for the Spirit's sudden coming when an anthem lifts our heart, for the angels we hear humming while we play or sing our part, 4 for the beauty, for the glory, for the church alive with praise, for the singing of the story that redeems our silent days— God, our thanks are never ending while our spirits pray and long to create, as you're intending, that new world we glimpse through song.
