As We Gather at Your Table
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., b. 1944 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 27 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1
As we gather at your table, as we listen to your
Word,
help us know, O God, your presence; let our hearts
and minds be stirred.
Nourish us with sacred story till we claim it as our
own;
teach us through this holy banquet how to make
Love’s victory known.
2
Turn our worship into witness in the sacrament of
life;
send us forth to love and serve you, bringing peace
where there is strife.
Give us, Christ, your great compassion to forgive as
you forgave;
may we still behold your image in the world you died
to save.
3
Gracious Spirit, help us summon other guests to
share that feast
where triumphant Love will welcome those who had
been last and least.
There no more will envy blind us nor will pride our
peace destroy,
as we join with saints and angels to repeat the
sounding joy.

All the Way My Savior Leads Me
Author: Fanny Crosby Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 315 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 All the way my Savior leads me;
what have I to fear beside?
Can I doubt his tender mercy,
who through life has been my guide?
Heav'nly peace, divinest comfort,
here by faith in him to dwell,
for I know, whate’er befall me,
Jesus doeth all things well.
2 All the way my Savior leads me,
cheers the winding path I tread,
gives me grace for ev'ry trial,
feeds me with the living Bread.
Though my weary steps may falter,
and my soul athirst may be,
gushing from the Rock before me,
lo! a spring of joy I see.
3 All the way my Savior leads me;
O the fullness of his love!
Perfect rest to me is promised
in my Father’s house above.
When my spirit, clothed, immortal,
wings its flight to endless day,
this my song through endless ages:
Jesus led me all the way.

Far Away in Old Judea
Author: Walter J. Mathams Appears in 6 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Far away in old Judea
Lived the gentle Lord of Love.
Happy children gathered round him
Everywhere that he might move.
And they sometimes left their play,
Just to follow him all day.
2 Oh, what wondrous tales he told them
Of our Father's thoughtful care;
How he loves us, leads us, keeps us,
Every day and everywhere;
That we never need to fear,
Since his help is always near!

It was Jesus Christ, our Saviour!
Author: Flora Kirkland Appears in 20 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 First Line: Long ago within the temple Lyrics: 1 Long ago within the temple
Stood a little boy one day,
And the doctors wondered greatly
At the words they heard Him say.
Refrain:
It was Jesus Christ, our Saviour!
He was but a little child,
But the light of Heaven was shining
In His face so pure and mild.
2 With the teachers there they found Him,
Though a lowly, learning youth,
But His answers as He told them
Were complete with heavenly truth. [Refrain]
4 Let us ever then be eager
To sit down at Jesus' feet,
To be learning from our Saviour,
And His lessons to repeat. [Refrain]

Lord, with Glowing Heart
Author: Francis S. Key, 1779-1843 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 280 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 First Line: Lord, with glowing heart I'd praise thee Lyrics: 1 Lord, with glowing heart I’d praise thee
For the bliss thy love bestows,
For the pardoning grace that saves me,
And the peace that from it flows.
Help, O God, my weak endeavor;
This dull soul to rapture raise;
Thou must light the flame, or never
Can my love be warmed to praise.
2 Praise, my soul, the God that sought thee,
Wretched wand'rer, far astray;
Found thee lost, and kindly brought thee
From the paths of death away.
Praise, with love’s devoutest feeling,
Him who saw thy guilt-born fear
And, the light of hope revealing,
Bade the blood-stained cross appear.
3 Lord, my spirit's ardent feelings
Vainly would my lips express.
Low before thy footstool kneeling,
Deign thy suppliant’s prayer to bless;
Let thy grace, my soul’s chief treasure,
Love’s pure flame within me raise;
And, since words can never measure,
Let my life show forth thy praise! Topics: Beginning of Service; Beginning of Service; Praise, Adoration Used With Tune: PLEADING SAVIOR

Author: Paul Gerhardt; John Christian Jacobi; Jane Marshall Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 195 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Spirit, come, dispel our sadness;
pierce the clouds of nature’s night;
come, O Source of joy and gladness,
breathe your life, and spread your light.
From the height that knows no measure,
as a gracious shower descend,
bringing down the richest treasure
we can wish, or God can send.
2 Let your fire heal our dissensions,
let your flame refine our goals,
let your peace resolve our tensions,
send your dove to soothe our souls.
Let your wind flow fresh within us,
sweeping clean all hate and strife
from our hearts; O come and win us
for a more abundant life.
3 Author of the new creation,
come, anoint us with your power.
Make our hearts your habitation;
with your grace our spirits shower.
Hear, O hear our supplication,
blessed Spirit, God of peace!
Rest upon this congregation
with the fullness of your grace.

Living Lord of Love's Dominion
Author: David A. Robb (1932-) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1 hymnal Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Living Lord of Love's dominion,
sovereign Saviour, bless your church ;
call us still as your disciples --
loving, serving, while we search.
Gathered: feed our deepest being
prophet's truth and godly nerve;
scattered: let our lives' fruition
nourish others while we serve.
2 Visit towns and inner cities;
penetrate our steel and stone
with a love that melt our coldness,
making mission here our own.
We will seek you, love transfigured,
in our neighbour's need
until deep within our daily service
love draws forth our utmost skill.
3 With your bread, your wine, your Spirit,
nurture us for your intent;
let your will be our vocation
lived as song and sacrament.
May compassion lead to service
till we join the saints above;
grant us hope for each tomorrow;
fill our faith with vibrant love! Topics: Call and Vocation; Church; Discipleship; Eucharist; Nation and City Scripture: Ezekiel 36:24-28 Used With Tune: PLEADING SAVIOUR
