Lord of the church, we pray for our renewing

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith (born 1926) Hymnal: Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) #499 (1987) Meter: 11.10.11.10 D Topics: Pentecost 2 The People of God; Pentecost 2 The Church's Unity and Fellowship Lyrics: 1 Lord of the church, we pray for our renewing: Christ over all, our undivided aim. Fire of the Spirit, burn for our enduring, wind of the Spirit, fan the living flame! We turn to Christ amid our fear and failing, the will that lacks the courage to be free, the weary labours, all but unavailing, to bring us nearer what a church should be. 2 Lord of the church, we seek a Father's blessing, a true repentance and a faith restored, a swift obedience and a new possessing, filled with the Holy Spirit of the Lord! We turn to Christ from all our restless striving, unnumbered voices with a single prayer — the living water for our souls' reviving, in Christ to live, and love and serve and care. 3 Lord of the church, we long for our uniting, true to one calling, by one vision stirred; one cross proclaiming and one creed reciting, one in the truth of Jesus and his word! So lead us on; till toil and trouble ended, one church triumphant one new song shall sing, to praise his glory, risen and ascended, Christ over all, the everlasting king!

Come with all joy to sing to God

Author: Christopher Idle (born 1938) Hymnal: Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) #16 (1987) Topics: Pentecost 2 The People of God Lyrics: 1 Come with all joy to sing to God our saving rock, the living Lord; in glad thanksgiving seek his face with songs of victory and grace. 2 In holiness and light arrayed above all gods that we have made, he is the one almighty king, and his the glory that we sing. 3 The earth is his from east to west, from ocean-floor to mountain-crest; he made the sea and formed the lands, he shaped the islands by his hands. 4 Come near to worship! Come with faith, bow down to him who gives us breath: God is our shepherd, he alone; we are his people, all his own. 5 But if you hear God's voice today do not reject what he will say; when Israel wandered from God's path they suffered forty years of wrath. 6 That generation went astray; they did not want to know his way: they put their saviour to the test, and saw his power, but lost their rest. 7 So to the God of earth and heaven, the Father, Spirit, Son, be given praise now, as praise has ever been and ever shall be praise — Amen!
