Through All the World a Hungry Christ

Author: Shirley Erena Murray, 1931- Hymnal: Community of Christ Sings #213 (2013) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Through all the world a hungry Christ must scavenge far for daily bread, must beg the rich for crumb and crust. We are the rich, the daily fed. 2 Beyond the church a leper Christ takes each untouchable by hand, gives hope to those who have no trust, whose stigma is our social brand. 3 In torture cell, a pris'ner Christ for justice and for truth must cry to free the innocent oppressed while we at liberty pass by. 4 We do not know you, beggar Christ, we do not recognize your sores, we do not see, for we are blind: forgive us, touch us, make us yours.

Unless the Lord the House Shall Build

Hymnal: The Presbyterian Hymnal #238 (1990) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Unless the Lord the house shall build, The weary builders toil in vain; Unless the Lord the city shield, The guards a useless watch maintain. 2 In vain you rise ere morning break, And late your nightly vigils keep, And weary days of toil partake; For God's belovèd there is sleep. 3 Yes, children are a great reward, A gift from God in very truth; As quiver full of arrows stored Are children given in days of youth. 4 How blest are those whose lives are cheered By children's growth in strength and grace. Within their house no foes are feared, For God keeps watch within that place. Scripture: Psalm 127 Languages: English Tune Title: BOURBON

Thy Broken Body, Gracious Lord

Author: Samuel P. Tregelles Hymnal: Hymns to the Living God #278 (2017) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Thy broken body, gracious Lord, is shadowed by this broken bread; the wine which in this cup is poured points to the blood which Thou hast shed. 2 And while we meet together thus, we show that we are one in Thee; Thy precious blood was shed for us, Thy death, O Lord, hast set us free! 3 Brethren in Thee, in union sweet, forever be Thy grace adored! 'Tis in Thy Name that now we meet, and Thou art with us, gracious Lord. 4 We have one hope that Thou wilt come, Thee in the air we wait to see, when Thou wilt give Thy saints a home, and we shall ever reign with Thee.

Jonah's Lament

Author: John Newton Hymnal: Hymns and Devotions for Daily Worship #296 (2024) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: As once for Jonah, so for me Lyrics: 1. As once for Jonah, so for me, To soothe and cheer my mournful hours, Prepared for me a leafy tree; Cool was its shade, and sweet its flow'rs. 2. To prize his gift was surely right, But through the folly of my heart, It hid the Giver from my sight, And soon my joy was changed to smart. 3. While I admired its beauteous form, Its pleasant shade, and grateful fruit, The Lord, displeased, sent forth a worm, Unseen, to prey upon the root. 4. Though trembling when I saw it fade, Restrained my tongue from bursting free; My folly I confessed, and prayed, Forgive my sin and spare my tree. 5. His wondrous love can ne’er be told; He heard me and relieved my pain, Yet no more did those leaves unfold, Nor did the tree revive again. 6. Now, Lord, the tree is mine no more, ’Tis thine, who only could it raise; The idol of my heart no more, Henceforth shall give way to thy praise.
