God everywhere

Author: Oliver Holden Hymnal: Laudes Domini #46 (1890) Topics: Prayer and Invocation First Line: They who seek the throne of grace Lyrics: 1 They who seek the throne of grace Find that throne in every place; If we live a life of prayer, God is present everywhere. 2 In our sickness and our health, In our want, or in our wealth, If we look to God in prayer, God is present everywhere. 3 When our earthly comforts fail, When the foes of life prevail, 'Tis the time for earnest prayer; God is present everywhere. 4 Then, my soul, in every strait, To thy Father come, and wait; He will answer every prayer: God is present everywhere.

We expect you this glad hour, waiting for your strength and light. We are joyful, we are eager, yearning for your gracious deed; rest upon your congregation: give us power of God, we plead. 2 Holy Spirit, come with fire. Burn us with your presence new. Let us as one mighty choir sing our hymn of praise to you. Burn away our wasted sadness and enflame us with your love; burst upon our congregation. Give us gladness from above. 3 Holy Spirit, bring your message; burn and breathe each word anew deep into our tired living till we strive your work to do. Teach us love and trusting kindness; bare our arms to those who hurt; breathe upon your congregation and inspire us with your Word.

A prayer in need

Author: John Newton Hymnal: Laudes Domini #47 (1890) Topics: Prayer and Invocation First Line: Come, my soul, thy suit prepare Lyrics: 1 Come, my soul, thy suit prepare, Jesus loves to answer prayer; He himself has bid thee pray, Therefore will not say thee nay. 2 With my burden I begin: Lord! remove this load of sin; Let thy blood, for sinners spilt, Set my conscience free from guilt. 3 Lord! I come to thee for rest; Take possession of my breast; There, thy blood-bought right maintain, And, without a rival, reign. 4 While I am a pilgrim here, Let thy love my spirit cheer; As my Guide, my Guard, my Friend, Lead me to my journey's end. 5 Show me what I have to do, Every hour my strength renew; Let me live a life of faith, Let me die thy people's death.

Come Down, O Love Divine

Author: Bianco da Siena, 1350-1434; Richard Frederick Littledale, 1833-1890 Hymnal: Community of Christ Sings #47 (2013) Meter: 6.6.11 D Topics: Invocation Lyrics: 1 Come down, O Love divine; seek thou this soul of mine, and visit it with thine own ardour glowing; O Comforter, draw near, within my heart appear, and kindle it, thy holy flame bestowing. 2 O let it freely burn, till earthly passions turn to dust and ashes in its heat consuming; and let thy glorious light shine ever on my sight, and clothe me round, the while my path illuming. 3 Let holy charity mine outward vesture be, and lowliness become mine inner clothing— true lowliness of heart, which takes the humbler part, and o'er its own shortcomings weeps with loathing. 4 And so the yearning strong, with which the soul will long, shall far out-pass the pow'r of human telling; no soul can guess Love's grace, till he become the place wherein the Holy Spirit makes a dwelling.

The mercy seat

Author: Hugh Stowell Hymnal: Laudes Domini #48 (1890) Topics: Prayer and Invocation First Line: From every stormy wind that blows Lyrics: 1 From every stormy wind that blows, From every swelling tide of woes, There is a calm, a sure retreat; 'Tis found beneath the mercy-seat. 2 There is a place where Jesus sheds The oil of gladness on our heads, A place than all besides more sweet; It is the blood-bought mercy-seat. 3 There is a scene where spirits blend, Where friend holds fellowship with friend; Though sundered far, by faith they meet, Around one common mercy-seat. 4 There, there, on eagle wings we soar, And sense and skin molest no more, And heaven comes down our souls to greet, And glory crowns the mercy-seat! 5 Oh! let my hand forget her skill, My tongue be silent, cold, and still, This throbbing heart forget to beat, If I forget the mercy-seat.

"The evil hour"

Author: Michael Bruce Hymnal: Laudes Domini #49 (1890) Topics: Prayer and Invocation First Line: Where high the heavenly temple stands Lyrics: 1 Where high the heavenly temple stands, The house of God not made with hands, A great High Priest our nature wears, The Guardian of mankind appears. 2 Though now ascended up on high, He bends on earth a brother's eye; Partaker of the human name, He knows the frailty of our frame. 3 Our Father-sufferer yet retains A fellow-feeling of our pains; And still remembers, in the skies, His tears, his agonies, and cries. 4 In every pang that rends the heart, The Man of Sorrows had a part; He sympathizes with our grief, And to the sufferer sends relief. 5 With boldness, therefore, at the throne, Let us make all our sorrows known; And ask the aid of heavenly power, To help us in the evil hour.
