Author: Frances R. Havergal Hymnal: Chalice Hymnal #609 (1995) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7 D Topics: Life of Discipleship Loyalty and Courage; God's Church Life of Discipleship: Loyalty and Courage Lyrics: 1 Take my life, and let it be consecrated, Lord, to thee. Take my moments and my days; let them flow in ceaseless praise, let them flow in ceaseless praise. 2 Take my hands, and let them move at the impulse of thy love. Take my feet, and let them be swift and beautiful for thee, swift and beautiful for thee. 3 Take my voice, and let me sing; unto God my praise I bring. Take my lips, and let them be filled with messages from thee, filled with messages from thee. 4 Take my silver and my gold; not a mite would I withhold. Take my intellect, and use every power as thou shalt choose, every power as thou shalt choose. 5 Take my will, and make it thine; it shall be no longer mine. Take my heart, it is thine own; it shall be thy royal throne, it shall be thy royal throne. 6 Take my love, my Lord, I pour at thy feet its treasure-store. Take myself, and I will be ever, only, all for thee, ever, only, all for thee. Languages: English Tune Title: HENDON

Reclothe us in our rightful mind, in purer lives thy service find, in deeper reverence, praise. 2 In simple trust like theirs who heard, beside the Syrian sea, the gracious calling of the Lord, let us, like them, without a word, rise up and follow thee. 3 O sabbath rest by Galilee! O calm of hills above, where Jesus knelt to share with thee the silence of eternity, interpreted by love! 4 Drop thy still dews of quietness, till all our strivings cease; take from our souls the strain and stress, and let our ordered lives confess the beauty of thy peace. 5 Breathe through the heats of our desire thy coolness and thy balm; let sense be dumb, let flesh retire; speak through the earthquake, wind, and fire, O still, small voice of calm. * Dear God, embracing humankind Languages: English Tune Title: REST

Let Hope and Sorrow Now Unite

Author: Brian Wren Hymnal: Chalice Hymnal #639 (1995) Meter: 8.7.87.8.8.7 Topics: Life of Discipleship Death and Eternal Life; God's Church Life of Discipleship: Death and Eternal Life Lyrics: 1 Let hope and sorrow now unite to consecrate life's ending, and praise good friends now gone from sight, though grief and loss are rending. The story in a well-loved face the years and days our thoughts retrace, are treasures worth defending. 2 With faith, or doubt, or open mind we whisper life's great question. The ebb and flow of space and time surpass our small perception. Yet knowledge grows with joyful gains and finds out wonders far more strange than hopes of resurrection. 3 Be glad for life, in age or youth; its worth is past conceiving. And stand by justice, love, and truth as patterns for believing. Give thanks for all each person gives - as faith comes true, and Jesus lives, there'll be an end to grieving.
