The Glory of These Forty Days
Author: Gregory the Great, c. 540-604; Maurice F. Bell, 1862-1947 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 35 hymnals Scripture: Mark 9:2-10 Lyrics: 1 The glory of these forty days
We celebrate with songs of praise;
For Christ, by whom all things were made,
Himself has fasted and has prayed.
2 Alone and fasting Moses saw
The loving God who gave the law;
And to Elijah, fasting, came
The steeds and chariots of flame.
3 So Daniel trained his mystic sight,
Delivered from the lion's might;
And John, the Bridegroom’s friend, became
The herald of Messiah’s name.
4 Then grant that we like them be true,
Consumed in fast and prayer with you;
Our spirits strengthen with your grace,
And give us joy to see your face.

Touch the earth lightly
Author: Shirley Erena Murray (b. 1931) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 23 hymnals Scripture: Mark 9:50 Lyrics: 1 Touch the earth lightly,
use the earth gently,
nourish the life of the world in our care:
gift of great wonder,
ours to surrender,
trust for the children tomorrow will bear.
2 We who endanger,
who create hunger,
agents of death for all creatures that live,
we who would foster
clouds of disaster,
God of our planet, forestall and forgive!
3 Let there be greening,
birth from the burning,
water that blesses and air that is sweet,
health in God's garden,
hope in God's children,
regeneration that peace will complete.
4 God of all living,
God of all loving,
God of the seedling, the snow and the sun,
teach us, deflect us,
Christ reconnect us,
using us gently and making us one. Topics: The Living God Our Response to God - in the stewardship of the earth; Our Response to God in the stewardship of the earth; Care of Creation; Children; Renewal Used With Tune: TENDERNESS
