My God, accept my heart this day
Author: Matthew Bridges (1800-1894) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #335 (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Romans 6:1-14 Lyrics: 1 My God, accept my heart this day,
and make it always thine,
that I from thee no more may stray,
no more from thee decline.
2 Before the cross of him who died,
behold, I prostrate fall;
let every sin be crucified,
and Christ be all in all.
3 Anoint me with thy heavenly grace,
and seal me for thine own;
that I may see thy glorious face,
and worship near thy throne.
4 Let every thought and work and word
to thee be ever given:
Then life shall be thy service, Lord,
and death the gate of heaven.
5 All glory to the Father be,
all glory to the Son,
all glory, Holy Ghost, to thee,
while endless ages run. Topics: Christian Initiation; Commitment; Dedication of people; Devotion; Discipleship; Proper 17 Year B; Proper 23 Year B; Self-offering; Sin; The Fourth Sunday before Lent Year A; Vocation Languages: English Tune Title: ST PETER
My God, accept my heart this day
Make me a captive, Lord
Author: George Matheson (1842-1906) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #534 (2005) Scripture: Romans 6:13 Lyrics: 1 Make me a captive, Lord,
and then I shall be free;
force me to render up my sword,
and I shall conqueror be.
I sink in life's alarms
when by myself I stand;
imprison me within thine arms,
and strong shall be my hand.
2 My heart is weak and poor
until it master find;
it has no spring of action sure,
it varies with the wind.
It cannot freely move
till thou hast wrought its chain;
enslave it with thy matchless love,
and deathless it shall reign.
3 My power is faint and low
till I have learned to serve;
it lacks the needed fire to glow,
it lacks the breeze to nerve;
it cannot drive the world,
until itself be driven;
its flag can only be unfurled
when thou shalt breathe from heaven.
4 My will is not my own
till thou hast made it thine;
if it would reach a monarch's throne
it must its crown resign;
it only stands unbent,
amid the clashing strife,
when on thy bosom it has leant
and found in thee its life. Topics: Life in Christ Our Response to Christ - In Discipleship Languages: English Tune Title: LEOMINSTER

Make me a channel of your peace
Author: Saint Patrick of Ireland, 372-466 Hymnal: The Book of Praise #740 (1997) Meter: 8.10.10.8 Scripture: Romans 6:3-11 Lyrics: 1 Make me a channel of your peace:
Where there is hatred, let me bring your love;
where there is injury, your healing power,
and where there’s doubt, true faith in you.
2 Make me a channel of your peace:
where there’s despair in life let me bring hope;
Where there is darkness, only light,
and where there’s sadness, ever joy.
3 O, Spirit, grant that I may never seek
so much to be consoled as to console,
to be understood as to understand,
to be loved as to love with all my soul.
4 Make me a channel of your peace:
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
in giving to all that we receive,
and in dying that we’re born to eternal life.
