When in Our Music God Is Glorified
Author: Fred Pratt Green Meter: 10.10.10 with refrain Appears in 86 hymnals Topics: Epiphany 8 Year C Lyrics: 1 When, in our music, God is glorified,
and adoration leaves no room for pride,
it is as though the whole creation cried
Hallelujah!
2 How often, making music, we have found
a new dimension in the world of sound,
as worship moved us to a more profound
Hallelujah!
3 So has the church in liturgy and song,
in faith and love, through centuries of wrong,
borne witness to the truth in every tongue,
Hallelujah!
4 And did not Jesus sing a psalm that night
when utmost evil strove against the light?
Then let us sing, for whom he won the fight:
Hallelujah!
5 Let every instrument be tuned for praise!
Let all rejoice who have a voice to raise!
And may God give us faith to sing always
Hallelujah! Used With Tune: ENGELBERG

through stormy ways leads to a peaceful end.
2 Be still, my soul, for God will undertake
to guide the future surely as the past.
Your hope, your confidence let nothing shake,
all now mysterious shall be bright at last.

the voice that once the waves' wild fury strayed.
3 Be still, my soul, the hour is hastening on
when we shall be for ever in God's peace;
when disappointment, grief, and fear are gone,
love’s joys restored, our strivings shall cease.
Be still, my soul: when change and tears are past,
all safe and blessed we shall meet at last. Used With Tune: FINLANDIA

God's eye is on the sparrow,
and I know God watches me. [Refrain] Scripture: Matthew 10:26-30 Used With Tune: SPARROW

Take up your cross, the Saviour said
Author: Charles William Everest Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 301 hymnals Topics: Epiphany 8 Year C Lyrics: 1 Take up your cross, the Saviour said,
if you would my disciple be;
take up your cross with willing heart
and humbly follow after me.
2 Take up your cross; let not its weight
fill your weak spirit with alarm;
Christ's strength shall bear your spirit up,
and brace your heart, and nerve your arm.
3 Take up your cross, heed not the shame,
nor let your foolish pride rebel;
your Saviour once accepted death
upon a cross, on Calvary's hill.

think not till death to lay it down;
for only those who bear the cross
may hope to wear the glorious crown. Used With Tune: HESPERUS (QUEBEC)

O God of Mercy, God of Light
Author: Godfrey Thring, 1823-1903 Meter: 8.8.8.6 Appears in 106 hymnals Topics: Epiphany 8 Lyrics: 1 O God of mercy, God of light,
In love and mercy infinite,
Teach us, as ever in your sight,
To live our lives in you.
2 You sent your Son to die for all,
That our lost world might hear your call;
Oh, hear us, lest we stray and fall!
We rest our hope in you.
3 Teach us the lesson Jesus taught:
To feel for those his blood has bought,
That ev'ry deed and word and thought
May work a work for you.
4 For all are kindred, far and wide,
Since Jesus Christ for all has died;
Grant us the will, and grace provide
To love them all in you.
5 In sickness, sorrow, want, or care,
Each other's burdens help us share;
May we, where help is needed, there
Give help as though to you.
6 And may your Holy Spirit move
All those who live to live in love,
Till you receive in heav'n above
Those who have lived to you. Used With Tune: JUST AS I AM

forgiven, loved and free,
the life of Jesus to recall,
in love laid down for me.

to find, as all are fed,
the new community of love
in Christ's communion bread.
3 As Christ breaks bread, and bids us share,
each proud division ends.
The love that made us, makes us one,
and strangers now are friends.
4 The Spirit of the risen Christ,
unseen, but ever near,
is in such friendship better known,
alive among us here.
5 Together met, together bound
by all that God has done,
we'll go with joy, to give the world
the love that makes us one. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 11:23-26 Used With Tune: ST STEPHEN (NEWINGTON)

remain for ever near me,
my Saviour and my friend:

if you are by my side,
not wander from the pathway
if you will be my guide.
2 O let me feel you near me:
the world is ever near;
I see the sights that dazzle,
the tempting sounds I hear;
my foes are ever near me,
around me and within;
but, Jesus, then draw nearer
and shield my soul from sin.
3 O let me hear you speaking
in accents clear and still,
above the storms of passion,
the murmurs of self-will;
O speak to reassure me,
to hasten or control;
now speak, and make me listen,
O guardian of my soul.
4 O Jesus, you have promised
to all who follow you,
that where you are in glory
your servant shall be too.
And, Jesus, I have promised
to serve you to the end:
O give me grace to follow,
my Saviour and my friend. Used With Tune: DAY OF REST
