Devotion to the Divine Law
Hymnal: The Psalter #335 (1912) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Companions Evil First Line: Deceit and falsehood I abhor Lyrics: 1 Deceit and falsehood I abhor,
But love Thy law, Thy truth revealed;
My steadfast hope is in Thy word;
Thou art my refuge and my shield;
The paths of sin I have not trod,
But kept the precepts of my God.
2 According to thy gracious word
Uphold me, Lord, deliver me;
O do not let me be ashamed
Of patient hope and trust in Thee;
O hold Thou me, and I shall stand
And ever follow Thy command.

Who vainly wander from the right;
The wicked Thou dost count as dross;
Thy just decrees are my delight;
For fear of Thee I stand in awe

The Lord Our Maker
Hymnal: The Psalter #383 (1912) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Companions Evil First Line: All that I am I owe to Thee Lyrics: 1 All that I am I owe to Thee,
Thy wisdom, Lord, has fashioned me;
I give my Maker thankful praise,
Whose wondrous works my soul amaze.
2 Ere into being I was bro't,
Thy eye did see, and in Thy tho't
My life in all its perfect plan
Was ordered ere my days began.
3 Thy tho'ts, O God, how manifold,
More precious unto me than gold!
I muse on their infinity,
Awaking I am still with Thee.
4 The wicked Thou wilt surely slay,
From me let sinners turn away;
They speak against the Name divine;
I count God's enemies as mine.
5 Search me, O God, my heart discern,
Try me, my inmost tho't to learn;
And lead me, if in sin I stray,
To choose the everlasting way. Scripture: Psalm 139 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. CRISPIN

They set out on their homeward road
Author: Fred Kaan, 1929- Hymnal: The Book of Praise #263 (1997) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Topics: Companion / Friend Lyrics: 1 They set out on their homeward road,
the two disciples lost and sad,
re-living still the episode
when all was lost and life made bad:
an ugly cross had been the end
of Christ the perfect man and friend.
2 A stranger joined them as they walked
that he their company might share;
he listened to them as they talked
of broken hope and great despair,
and then the stranger made reply
that Christ the Lord was bound to die.
3 He spoke of Moses and his days,
of Egypt and the promised land,
recalled the prophets and their ways,
God's leading with a living hand.
At journey's end, to food and rest,
they made him feel a welcome guest.
4 Invited in and honoured most
to take his place at table's head,
the stranger-guest became the host
by saying grace and taking bread.
Then suddenly they knew that Christ
had made their common meal a feast.
5 O Jesus, come again, we pray,
and share with us the things we do.
Be our companion on our way;
let Easter in our homes come true,
and let our life and work proclaim
the power of your living name. Scripture: Luke 24:13-35 Languages: English Tune Title: RYBURN
They set out on their homeward road
Christ is risen! Shout Hosanna!
Author: Brian Arthur Wren, 1936- Hymnal: Together in Song #394 (1999) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Jesus Christ Friend and Companion Lyrics: 1 Christ is risen! Shout Hosanna!
Celebrate this day of days!
Christ is risen! Hush in wonder:
all creation is amazed.
In the desert all-surrounding,
see, a spreading tree has grown:
healing leaves of grace abounding
bring a taste of love unknown.
2 Christ is risen! Raise your spirits
from the caverns of despair.
Walk with gladness in the morning.
See what love can do and dare.
Drink the wine of resurrection,
not a servant, but a friend.
Jesus is our strong companion.
Joy and peace shall never end.
3 Christ is risen! Earth and heaven
nevermore shall be the same.
Break the bread of new creation
where the world is still in pain.
Tell its grim, demonic chorus:
'Christ is risen! Get you gone!'
God the First and Last is with us.
Sing Hosanna everyone! Scripture: 2 Corinthians 5:17-20 Languages: English Tune Title: JACKSON NEW
Christ is risen! Shout Hosanna!

pain of parting, dry or weeping,
on our lips and in our bodies,
loving God, to you we offer.

love and friendship, voice and gesture,
precious, lovely, one and only,
giving God, we tell and treasure.
3 Word of promise, lift our singing,
blending grieving with believing.
In your hands is all completed,
lasting God, our hope and measure.

safe companion, in your keeping,
death is birth to resurrection,
living God, our joy forever. Scripture: Luke 23:46 Languages: English Tune Title: MOUNT AUBURN
