One There Is, above All Others
Author: John Newton, 1725-1807 Hymnal: Lutheran Book of Worship #298 (1978) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Topics: Easter 6 Lyrics: 1 One there is, above all others,
Well deserves the name of friend;
His is love beyond a brother’s,
Costly, free, and knows no end:
They who once his kindness prove
Find it everlasting love.
2 Which of all our friends, to save us,
Could or would have shed his blood?
But this Savior died to have us
Reconciled in him to God:
This was boundless love indeed;
Jesus is the friend we need.
3 When he lived on earth, they scorned him;
"Friend of sinners" was his name.
Though the angels have adored him,
Still he answers to that claim;
Still he calls them dearest friends
And to all their needs attends.
4 O for grace our hearts to soften!
Teach us, Lord, at length to love.
We, alas! forget too often,
What a Friend we have above:
But, when home our souls are brought,
We will love Thee as we ought. Languages: English Tune Title: AMEN SJUNGE HVARJE TUNGA

Son of God, Eternal Savior
Author: Somerset C. Lowry, 1855-1932 Hymnal: Lutheran Book of Worship #364 (1978) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Easter 6 Lyrics: 1 Son of God, eternal Savior,
Source of life and truth and grace,
Word made flesh, whose birth among us
Hallows all our human race,
You our head, who, throned in glory,
For your own will ever plead:
Fill us with your love and pity,
Heal our wrongs, and help our need.
2 As you, Lord, have lived for others,
So may we for others live.
Freely have your gifts been granted;
Freely may your servants give.
Yours the gold and yours the silver,
Yours the wealth of land and sea;
We but stewards of your bounty
Held in solemn trust will be.
3 Come, O Christ, and reign among us,
King of love and Prince of Peace;
Hush the storm of strife and passion,
Bid its cruel discords cease.
By your patient years of toiling,
By your silent hours of pain,
Quench our fevered thirst of pleasure,
Stem our selfish greed of gain.
4 Son of God, eternal Savior,
Source of life and truth and grace,
Word made flesh, whose birth among us
Hallows all our human race:
By your praying, by your willing
That your people should be one,
Grant, oh, grant our hope’s fruition:
Here on earth your will be done. Languages: English Tune Title: IN BABILONE

With all we need of promised good;

For pow'r is Thine, and boundless reign,
In glory evermore, Amen.

What a Friend We Have in Jesus
Author: J. M. Scriven, 1820-86 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #385 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Easter 6 Lyrics: 1 What a friend we have in Jesus,
All our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
Ev'rything to God in prayer!
O what peace we often forfeit;
O what needless pain we bear–
All because we do not carry
Ev'rything to God in prayer!
2 Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged–
Take it to the Lord in prayer!
Can we find a friend so faithful
Who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our ev'ry weakness–
Take it to the Lord in prayer!
3 Are we weak and heavy-laden,
Cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Savior, still our refuge–
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
In His arms He'll take and shield thee;
Thou wilt find a solace there.

Protect our native land, O God.

Deliver us from evil, God,
Be with us in our dying hour;
Thine is the kingdom, glory, pow'r.
4 Lord, at thy word, Amen I say;
Increase my feeble faith, I pray.
Thou lead'st me with a Father's care;
O let me be thy child and heir! Languages: English

Beams of Heaven as I Go
Author: Charles Albert Tindley Hymnal: The New Century Hymnal #447 (1995) Meter: 7.7.7.7.8.8.9.5.6 Topics: Year A Easter 6 First Line: Beams of heaven, as I go Refrain First Line: I do not know how long 'twill be Lyrics: 1 Beams of heaven, as I go
through this wilderness of woe,
guide my heart in peaceful ways,
turn my midnights into days;
When in life's shadows I would grope,
faith always sees a star of hope,
And soon from all life's grief and danger
I shall be free some day.
Refrain:
I do not know how long 'twill be,
now what the future holds for me,
But this I know, if Jesus leads me,
I shall get home some day.
2 Oftentimes my sky is clear,
joy abounds without a tear,
though a day's so bright begun,
clouds may hide tomorrow's sun. [Refrain]
There'll be a day that's always bright,
a day that never yields to night,
And in its light the streets of glory
I shall behold some day.
3 Burdens now may crush me down,
disappointments all around,
troubles speak in mournful sigh,
sorrow through a tear-stained eye.
There is a world where pleasure reigns,
no mourning soul shall roam its plains,
And to that land of peace and glory
I want to go some day. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: SOME DAY

Lord, You Give the Great Commission
Author: Jeffery W. Rowthorn Hymnal: Voices United #512 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Easter 6 Year C Lyrics: 1 Lord, you give the great commission:
"Heal the sick and preach the word."
Lest the church neglect its mission
and the gospel go unheard,
help us witness to your purpose
with renewed integrity:
with the Spirit's gifts empow'r us
for the work of ministry.

"In my name baptize and teach."
That the world may trust your promise,
life abundant meant for each,
give us all new fervour, draw us
closer in community:
with the Spirit's gifts empow'r us
for the work of ministry.

"This my body, this my blood."
Let us all, for earth's true glory,
daily lift life heavenward,
asking that the world around us
share your children's liberty:
with the Spirit's gifts empow'r us
for the work of ministry.
4 Lord, you show us love's true measure:
"Father, what they do, forgive."
Yet we hoard as private treasure
all that you so freely give.
May your care and mercy lead us
to a just society:
with the Spirit's gifts empow'r us
for the work of ministry.
5 Lord, you bless with words assuring:
"I am with you to the end."
Faith and hope and love restoring,
may we serve as you intend,
and, amid the cares that claim us,
hold in mind eternity:
with the Spirit's gifts empow'r us
for the work of ministry. Languages: English Tune Title: ABBOT'S LEIGH
