Gracious Spirit, Holy Ghost
Author: Christopher Wordsworth (1807-1895) Meter: 7.7.7.5 Appears in 204 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 12:31; 13, 14:1 Lyrics: 1 Gracious Spirit, Holy Ghost,
taught by you, we covet most,
of your gifts at Pentecost,
holy, heavenly love.
2 Faith that mountains could remove,
tongues of earth or heaven above,
knowledge, all things, empty prove
without heavenly love.
3 Though I as a martyr bleed,
give my goods the poor to feed,
all is vain, if love I need;
therefore give me love.
4 Love is kind, and suffers long;
love is meek, and thinks no wrong,
love than death itself more strong;
therefore give us love.
5 Prophecy will fade away,
melting in the light of day;
love will ever with us stay;
therefore give us love.
6 Faith and hope and love we see,
joining hand in hand, agree;
but the greatest of the three,
and the best, is love. Topics: The Holy Spirit The Holy Spirit in the Church - Enlivening and Renewing the Church; Love For God; Love for others Used With Tune: CHARITY

I come with joy, a child of God
Author: Brian Wren (b. 1936) Meter: 8.6.8.6.6 Appears in 73 hymnals 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 Used With Tune: DOVE OF PEACE

Not for Tongues of Heaven's Angels
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith Meter: 8.7.8.7.6 Appears in 30 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 14:1 Lyrics: 1 Not for tongues of heaven's angels,
not for wisdom to discern,
not for faith that masters mountains--
for this better gift we yearn:
may love be ours, O Lord.
2 Love is humble, love is gentle,
love is tender, true and kind:
love is gracious, ever patient,
generous of heart and mind--
may love be ours, O Lord.
3 Never jealous, never selfish,
love will not rejoice in wrong:
never boastful nor resentful,
love believes and suffers long--
may love be ours, O Lord.
4 In the day this world is fading
faith and hope will play their part;
but when Christ is seen in glory
love shall reign in every heart:
may love be ours, O Lord.

the fire that it fans is the warmth of our caring,
so lean on the wind, it will show us the way. Topics: The Holy Spirit The Holy Spirit in the Church - Enlivening and Renewing the Church; Sharing and Caring Used With Tune: THE BRIGHT WIND OF HEAVEN

Stand up, stand up for Jesus
Author: George Duffield, 1818-1888 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 1,785 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 14:8 Lyrics: 1 Stand up, stand up for Jesus,
ye soldiers of the cross!
Lift high his royal banner,
it must not suffer loss.
From victory unto victory
his army he shall lead,
till every foe is vanquished,
and Christ is Lord indeed.
2 Stand up, stand up for Jesus,
the solemn watchword hear;
if while ye sleep he suffers,
away with shame and fear.
Where'er ye meet with evil,
within you or without,
charge for the God of battles,
and put the foe to rout.
3 Stand up, stand up for Jesus,
stand in his strength alone;
the arm of flesh will fail you,
ye dare not trust your own.
Put on the gospel armour,
each piece put on with prayer;
when duty calls or danger
be never wanting there.
4 Stand up, stand up for Jesus,
the strife will not be long;
this day the noise of battle,
the next the victor's song.
To him that overcometh
a crown of life shall be;
he with the King of glory
shall reign eternally. Topics: Proper 23 Year C Used With Tune: MORNING LIGHT
