They Did Not Build in Vain
Author: Alan Luff (1928-) Hymnal: Common Praise (1998) #302 (1998) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Scripture: 1 Kings 8:22-30 Lyrics: 1 They did not build in vain
who founded here a church
as witness to God's love
amid a world of pain,
for still, to those who wish to see,
this place proclaims God's mystery.
2 They built upon the rock
that is the risen Lord,
the one foundation laid
which stands each earthly shock;
that, Spirit filled, we here might raise,
as living temples, prayer and praise.
3 Those who have loved this place,
a cloud of witnesses,
surround and urge us on
as we now run our race,
and so we lay aside each sin
in our desire to strive and win.
4 Though the horizon's bend
conceals the way ahead,
the footprints on the road
show Christ waits at the end;
in him alone our faith shall stand
who waits for us at God's right hand.
5 In every place our world
is storm and tempest tossed;
the flames of fear and hate
are evil's flags unfurled;
yet still the Spirit's wind and fire
pour gifts for service in this hour.
6 Here is our meeting place,
where doubt finds grounds of faith;
where hurt finds healing love,
our penitence your grace;
where bridging time to eternity
is God the holy Trinity. Topics: Aniversary of Parish/Church; Church Languages: English Tune Title: LITTLE CORNARD

Glory be to God on high
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: Common Praise #361 (2000) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.7.7.6 Scripture: 1 Kings 8:27 Lyrics: 1 Glory be to God on high,
and peace on earth descend;
God comes down, he bows the sky,
and shows himself our friend!
God the invisible appears,
God the blest, the great I AM,
sojourns in this vale of tears,
and Jesus is his name.
2 Him the angels all adored,
their maker and their king:
tidings of their humbled Lord
they now to mortals bring:
emptied of his majesty,
of his dazzling glories shorn,
being’s source begins to be,
and God himself is born!
3 See the eternal Son of God
a mortal son of man,
dwelling in an earthly clod
whom heaven cannot contain!
Stand amazed ye heavens at this!
See the Lord of earth and skies
humbled to the dust he is,
and in a manger lies!
4 We earth's children now rejoice,
the Prince of peace proclaim,
with heaven’s host lift up our voice,
and shout Emmanuel’s name;
knees and hearts to him we bow;
of our flesh, and of our bone,
Jesus is our brother now,
and God is all our own! Topics: General Liturgical Section; Proper 6 Year C Languages: English Tune Title: AMSTERDAM
Glory be to God on high
We Built a Sanctuary Sure
Author: Harold Humbert Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #439 (1995) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Scripture: 1 Kings 8:11 Lyrics: 1 We built a sanctuary sure;
it stands on sacred sod.
A church erected to endure,
the temple of our God.
We come to worship in this place
with aspiration high;
it is the consecrated place,
where God himself draws nigh.
2 The church is God’s abiding place,
his altar is within,
and here by faith we see God’s face,
are cleansed from stain of sin.
A sanctuary for the soul,
where love can cast our fear,
where broken spirits are made whole,
for God himself is here.
3 Around Christ’s table we commune
in fellowship supreme;
inspired by Christ, through word and tune,
of things divine we dream.
Forth from this sacred place we go
with challenge in each soul
to love, to lift, to build, to grow.
God’s kingdom is our goal. Topics: Special Occasions; Church--Dedication of a building; God--Protection by; Holy Communion; Worship Languages: English Tune Title: FOREST GREEN

O God of Font and Altar
Author: Carl Daw, Jr. (1944-) Hymnal: Common Praise (1998) #389 (1998) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Scripture: 1 Kings 8:22-30 Lyrics: 1 O God of font and altar,
of music, grandeur, light;
toward whom the soaring arches
aspire beyond their height:
as beauty draws us to you
within this house of prayer,
let worship form and feed us
to help us show your care.
2 O life-bestowing Spirit,
inspire this hallowed space;
breathe through us with new fervor
and fill us with your grace.
Arouse our lagging spirits,
enflame our hearts with joy:
here let a love be kindled
that death cannot destroy.
3 O Christ, who cleansed the temple,
baptize us with your zeal,
and teach us your compassion
to love, forgive, and heal.
Be in our midst to claim us
and mark us as your own,
then send us forth in witness
to make your mercy known. Topics: Praise of God; Baptism (general) Languages: English Tune Title: KING'S LYNN
