Help us to help each other, Lord
Author: Charles Wesley (1707-1788) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 73 hymnals Topics: Sharing and Caring Lyrics: 1 Help us to help each other, Lord,
each other's cross to bear;
let each his friendly aid afford,
and feel another's care.
2 Up into thee, our living head,
let us in all things grow,
and by thy sacrifice be led
the fruits of love to show.
3 Touched by the lodestone of thy love
let all our hearts agree;
and ever towards each other move,
and ever move towards thee.
4 This is the bond of perfectness,
thy spotless charity.
O let us still, we pray, possess
the mind that was in thee. Scripture: Galatians 6:2 Used With Tune: DUNFERMLINE

Love Divine, All Loves Excelling
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1,868 hymnals Topics: Compassion, Caring Lyrics: 1 Love divine, all loves excelling,
Joy of heav'n, to earth come down!
Fix in us thy humble dwelling,
all thy faithful mercies crown.
Jesus, thou art all compassion,
pure, unbounded love thou art;
visit us with thy salvation,
enter ev'ry trembling heart.
2 Breathe, oh, breathe thy loving Spirit
into ev'ry troubled breast;
let us all in thee inherit;
let us find thy promised rest.
Take away the love of sinning;
Alpha and Omega be;
end of faith, as its beginning,
set our hearts at liberty.
3 Come, Almighty, to deliver;
let us all thy life receive;
suddenly return, and never,
nevermore thy temples leave.
Thee we would be always blessing,
serve thee as thy hosts above,
pray, and praise thee without ceasing,
glory in thy perfect love.
4 Finish then thy new creation,
pure and spotless let us be;
let us see thy great salvation
perfectly restored in thee!
Changed from glory into glory,
till in heav'n we take our place,
till we cast our crowns before thee,
lost in wonder, love and praise! Used With Tune: HYFRYDOL

Author: Henry W. Baker Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 678 hymnals Topics: God the Father Care and Guidance Lyrics: 1 The King of love my Shepherd is,
Whose goodness faileth never;
I nothing lack if I am His
And He is mine for ever.

My ransomed soul He leadeth,
And, where the verdant pastures grow,
With food celestial feedeth.
3 Perverse and foolish oft I strayed,
But yet in love He sought me.
And on His shoulder gently laid,
And home rejoicing brought me.
4 In death's dark vale I fear no ill
With Thee, dear Lord, beside me;
Thy rod and staff my comfort still,
Thy cross before to guide me.
5 And so through all the length of days
Thy goodness faileth never:
Good Shepherd, may I sing Thy praise
Within Thy house for ever.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 23 Used With Tune: DOMINUS REGIT ME
The King of Love My Shepherd Is
We Gather Together
Author: Theodore Baker Appears in 202 hymnals Topics: God Care and Guidance First Line: We gather together to ask the Lord's blessing Lyrics: 1 We gather together to ask the Lord's blessing,
He chastens and hastens His will to make known.
The wicked oppressing now cease from distressing,
Sing praises to His name, He forgets not His own.
2 Beside us to guide us, our God with us joining,
Ordaining, maintaining His kingdom divine;
So from the beginning the fight we were winning.
Thou Lord, wast at our side: the glory be Thine!
3 We all do extol Thee, Thou leader in battle,
And pray that Thou still our defender wilt be.
Let Thy congregation escape tribulation:
Thy name be ever praised: O Lord, make us free!
Amen.

We Gather Together
Lord, bring the day to pass
Author: Ian Masson Fraser (b. 1917) Meter: 6.6.12.8.8 Appears in 10 hymnals Topics: Care of Creation Lyrics: 1 Lord, bring the day to pass
when forest, rock, and hill,
the beasts, the birds, the grass,
will know your finished will:
when we attain our destiny
and nature lives in harmony.
2 Forgive our careless use
of water, ore, and soil --
the plenty we abuse
supplied by others' toil:
save us from making self our creed,
turn us towards each other's need.
3 Help us, when we release
creation's secret powers,
to harness them for peace,
our children's peace and ours:
teach us the art of mastering
in servant form, like Christ our King.
4 Creation groans, travails,
futile its present plight,
bound -- till the hour it hails
God's children born of light:
that we may gain our true estate,
come, Lord, new heavens and earth create. Scripture: 1 John 4:17 Used With Tune: LOVE UNKNOWN
Lord, bring the day to pass
O sweet it is to know, to feel
