Beyond the sacred page I seek you, Lord; my spirit waits for you, O living Word. 2 Bless your own word of truth, dear Lord, to me, as when you blessed the bread by Galilee. Then shall all bondage cease, all fetters fall; and I shall find my peace, my All in all! 3 You are the bread of life, dear Lord, to me, your holy word the truth that rescues me. Give me to eat and live with you above; teach me to love your truth, for you are love. 4 O send your Spirit now, dear Lord, to me, that he may touch my eyes and make me see. Show me the truth made plain within your Word, for in your book revealed I see you, Lord. Psalter Hymnal, 1987

Would he devote that sacred head for sinners such as I? 2 Was it for crimes that I have done, he groaned upon the tree? Amazing pity! Grace unknown! And love beyond degree! 3 Well might the sun in darkness hide, and shut its glories in, when God, the mighty maker, died for his own creature's sin. 4 Thus might I hide my blushing face while his dear cross appears; dissolve my heart in thankfulness, and melt mine eyes to tears. 5 But drops of tears can ne'er repay the debt of love I owe. Here, Lord, I give myself away; 'tis all that I can do. United Methodist Hymnal, 1989

Great God, your love has called us here

Author: Brian Wren (b. 1936) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 34 hymnals Topics: Christian Year Maundy Thursday Lyrics: 1 Great God, your love has called us here, as we, by love, for love were made. Your living likeness still we bear, though marred, dishonoured, disobeyed. We come, with all our heart and mind your call to hear, your love to find. 2 We come with self-inflicted pains of broken trust and chosen wrong, half-free, half-bound by inner chains, by social forces swept along, by powers and systems close confined yet seeking hope for humankind. 3 Great God, in Christ you call our name and then receive us as your own, not through some merit, right or claim, but by your gracious love alone. We strain to glimpse your mercy seat and find you kneeling at our feet. 4 Then take the towel, and break the bread, and humble us, and call us friends. Suffer and serve till all are fed, and show how grandly love intends to work till all creation sings, to fill all worlds, to crown all things. 5 Great God, in Christ you set us free your life to live, your joy to share. Give us your Spirit's liberty to turn from guilt and dull despair and offer all that faith can do while love is making all things new. Scripture: 2 Corinthians 3:17 Used With Tune: MELITA

Psalm 116

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 199 hymnals Topics: Holy Week Maundy Thursday First Line: I love the Lord, he heard my cry Lyrics: 1. I Love the Lord, he heard my cry And pitied ev'ry groan. Long as I love, while troubles rise, I'll hasten to his throne. 2. I love the Lord; he bowed his ear And chased my griefs away; Oh, let my heart no more despair While I have breath to pray. 3. My flesh declined, my spirits fell, And I drew near the dead, While inward pangs of fear and hell Perplexed my wakeful head. 4. My God, I cried, your servant save, Be ever good and just; Your pow’r can rescue from the grave, Your pow’r is all my trust. 5. The Lord beheld me sore distressed, He bid my pains remove; Return, my soul, to God my rest, For you have known his love. 6. What shall I render to my God For all his kindness shown? Your cup of life I’ll gladly take; My songs address your throne. 7. How much is mercy your delight, My ever-blessèd God! How dear your servants in your sight! How precious is their blood! Scripture: Psalm 116 Used With Tune: SMALLWOOD
