When in Our Music God Is Glorified
Author: Fred Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Hymnal: Worship and Rejoice #7 (2003) Meter: 10.10.10 with refrain Scripture: 1 Corinthians 14:26 Lyrics: 1 When in our music God is glorified,
and adoration leaves no room for pride,
it is as though the whole creation cried:
Alleluia!
2 How often, making music, we have found
a new dimension in the world of sound,
as worship moved us to a more profound
Alleluia!
3 So has the Church, in liturgy and song,
in faith and love, through centuries of wrong,
borne witness to the truth in every tongue:
Alleluia!
4 And did not Jesus sing a psalm that night
when utmost evil strove against the light?
Then let us sing, for whom he won the fight:
Alleluia!
5 Let every instrument be tuned for praise!
Let all rejoice who have a voice to raise!
And may God give us faith to sing always:
Alleluia! Topics: Adoration; Dedication Instruments Languages: English Tune Title: ENGELBERG
When in Our Music God Is Glorified
I come with joy, a child of God
Author: Brian Wren (b. 1936) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #656 (2005) Meter: 8.6.8.6.6 Scripture: 1 Corinthians 14:1 Lyrics: 1 I come with joy, a child of God,
forgiven, loved and free,
the life of Jesus to recall,
in love laid down for me,
in love laid down for me.
2 I come with Christians far and near
to find, as all are fed,
the new community of love
in Christ's communion bread,
in Christ's communion bread.
3 As Christ breaks bread, and bids us share,
each proud division ends.
The love that made us, makes us one,
and strangers now are friends,
and strangers now are friends.
4 The Spirit of the risen Christ,
unseen, but ever near,
is in such friendship better known,
alive among us here,
alive among us here.
5 Together met, together bound
by all that God has done,
we'll go with joy, to give the world
the love that makes us one,
the love that makes us one. Topics: The Church Celebrates Holy Communion; Church unity and ecumenism; Reconciliation Languages: English Tune Title: DOVE OF PEACE

This Joyful Eastertide
Author: George R. Woodward Hymnal: Lift Up Your Hearts #202 (2013) Scripture: 1 Corinthians 14:20 Refrain First Line: Had Christ, who once was slain Lyrics: 1 This joyful Eastertide,
away with sin and sadness!
Our Lord, the crucified,
has filled our hearts with gladness.

Had Christ, who once was slain,
not burst his three day prison,
our faith would be in vain.
But now has Christ arisen,
arisen, arisen,
but now has Christ arisen.

secure within God’s keeping,
until the trumpet voice
shall wake us from our sleeping. [Refrain]

when Jesus crossed the river.
His love shall reach me still;
his mercy is forever. [Refrain]

This Joyful Eastertide
God is here! As we his people
Author: F. Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Hymnal: Common Praise #301 (2000) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Scripture: 1 Corinthians 14:25 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.
Here in 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: Holy Communion; Third Sunday Before Lent Year A; Proper 16 Year B Languages: English Tune Title: BLAENWERN

Jesus, thou soul of all our joys

Jesus, thou soul of all our joys
Disposer supreme, and Judge of the earth
Author: Jean de Santeul, 1630-1697; Isaac Williams, 1802-1865 Hymnal: Common Praise #214 (2000) Meter: 10.10.11.11 Scripture: 1 Corinthians 14:8 Lyrics: 1 Disposer supreme, and Judge of the earth,
who choosest for thine the meek and the poor;
to frail earthen vessels, and things of no worth,
entrusting thy riches which ay shall endure;
2 Those vessels soon fail, though full of thy light,
and at thy decree are broken and gone;
thence brightly appeareth thy truth in its might,
as through the clouds riven the lightnings have shone.
3 Like clouds are they borne to do thy great will,
and swift as the winds about the world go:
the Word with his wisdom their spirits doth fill;
they thunder, they lighten, the waters o'erflow.
4 Their sound goeth forth, 'Christ Jesus the Lord!'
then Satan doth fear, his citadels fall;
as when the dread trumpets went forth at thy word,
and one long blast shattered the Canaanite's wall.
5 O loud be their trump, and stirring their sound,
to rouse us, O Lord, from slumber of sin:
the lights thou hast kindled in darkness around,
O may they awaken our spirits within.
6 All honour and praise, dominion and might,
to God, Three in One, eternally be,
who round us hath shed his own marvellous light,
and called us from darkness his glory to see. Topics: Saints; Proper 5 Year C Languages: English Tune Title: OLD 104TH
