Where there is charity and love
And Now, O Father, Mindful of the Love
Author: William Bright (1824-1901) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Appears in 92 hymnals Scripture: Romans 12 Lyrics: 1 And now, O Father, mindful of the love
that bought us, once for all, on Calvary's tree,
and having with us him that pleads above,
we here present, we here spread forth to thee
that only offering perfect in thine eyes,
the one true, pure, immortal sacrifice.
2 Look, Father, look on his anointed face,
and only look on us as found in him;
look not on our misusings of thy grace,
our prayer so languid, and our faith so dim.
For lo! Between our sins and their reward
we set the passion of thy Son our Lord.
3 And then for those, our dearest and our best,
by this prevailing presence we appeal:
O fold them closer to thy mercy's breast;
O do thine utmost for their souls' true weal;
from tainting mischief keep them pure and clear,
and crown thy gifts with strength to persevere.
4 And so we come: O draw us to thy feet,
most patient Saviour, who canst love us still;
and by this food, so awesome and so sweet,
deliver us from every touch of ill.
In thine own service make us glad and free,
and grant us never more to part with thee. Topics: Eucharist; Eucharist; Forgiveness; Love; Prayer; Sunday of the Passion Used With Tune: UNDE ET MEMORES

through thorny ways leads to a joyful end.

to guide the future as he has the past.

his voice, who ruled them once on Galilee.
3 Be still, my soul: when dearest friends depart
and all is darkened in the vale of tears,
then you shall better know his love, his heart,
who comes to soothe your sorrow, calm your fears.
Be still, my soul: for Jesus can restore
the trust and hope that strengthened you before.
4 Be still, my soul: the hour is hastening on
when we shall be for ever with the Lord,
when disappointment, grief and fear are gone,
sorrow forgotten, love's pure joy restored.

all safe and blessèd we shall meet at last. Topics: Confidence; Consolation; Endurance; Everlasting Life; Funerals; Good Friday; Providence Used With Tune: FINLANDIA

Almighty Father of All Things That Be
Author: Ernest E. Dugmore Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 10 hymnals Scripture: Romans 12:1 Lyrics: 1 Almighty father of all things that be,
our life, our work we consecrate to thee,
whose heav'ns declare thy glory from above,
whose earth below is witness to thy love.
2 For well we know this weary, soiled earth
is yet thine own by right of its new birth,
since that great cross upreared on Calvary
redeemed it from its fault and shame to thee.
3 Thine still the changeful beauty of the hills,
the purple valleys flecked with silver rills,
the ocean glist'ning 'neath the golden rays:
they all are thine, and ceaseless speak thy praise.
4 Thou dost the strength to worker's arms impart;
from thee the skilled musician's reasoned art,
the grace of poet's pen or painter's hand,
to teach the loveliness of sea and land.
5 Then grant us, Lord, in all things thee to own,
to dwell within the shadow of thy throne,
to speak and work, to think and live and move
reflecting thine own nature, which is love;
6 that so, by Christ redeemed from sin and shame,
and hallowed by thy Spirit's cleansing flame,
ourselves, our work, and all our powers may be
a sacrifice acceptable to thee. Used With Tune: CHILTON FOLIAT

Spirit of God, Descend upon My Heart
Author: George Croly, 1780-1860 Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 341 hymnals Scripture: Romans 12:1-2 Lyrics: 1 Spirit of God, descend upon my heart,
free it from sin, through all its pulses move.
Stoop to my weakness, mighty as you are,
and make me love you as I ought to love.
2 I ask no dream, no prophet ecstasies,
no sudden rending of the veil of clay,
no angel visitant, no opening skies,
but take the dimness of my soul away.
3 Did you not bid us love you, God and King,
love you with all our heart and strength and mind?
I see your cross--there teach my heart to cling.
O let me seek you and O let me find!
4 Teach me to feel that you are always nigh;
teach me the struggles of the soul to bear,
to check the rising doubt, the rebel sigh;
teach me the patience of unanswered prayer.
5 Teach me to love you as your angels love,
one holy passion filling all my frame:
the baptism of the heaven-descended Dove,
my heart an altar, and your love the flame. Used With Tune: MORECAMBE

try me, O Savior, know my thoughts, I pray.
See if there be some wicked way in me;
cleanse me from every sin and set me free.
2 I praise thee, Lord, for cleansing me from sin;
fulfill thy Word and make me pure within.
Fill me with fire where once I burned with shame;
grant my desire to magnify thy name.
3 Lord, take my life and make it wholly thine;
fill my poor heart with thy great love divine.
Take all my will, my passion, self, and pride;
I now surrender, Lord--in me abide.
