Now Praise the Hidden God of Love

Author: Fred Pratt Green Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: Stages of Life; Stages of Life Lyrics: 1 Now praise the hidden God of love, in whom we all must live and move, who shepherds us, at ev'ry stage, through youth, maturity, and age: 2 who challenged us, when we were young, to storm the citadels of wrong; in care for others taught us how God's true community must grow: 3 who bids us never lose our zest, though age is urging us to rest, but proves to us that we have still a work to do, a place to fill. 4 Then talk no more of waster time, but God-ward look, and upward climb, content to sleep, when day is done, and rise refreshed, and travel on. Scripture: Ecclesiastes 11:7-10, 12:1-8 Used With Tune: TALLIS CANON

Year by year, from past to future

Author: Alan Luff (b. 1928) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Stages of Life Lyrics: 1 Year by year, from past to future worship marks our upward climb, sets the rhythm of our journey to eternity through time: though the outward things diminish we are held more firm by grace, following God's heavenward calling and the everlasting prize. 2 As we seek to weave life's fabric on the lengthening loom of days, may Christ guide the threads that form it, be the pattern it displays; may the Father, master craftsman, sorrowing over each mistake, plan for us a new perfection from the ugliness we make. 3 Though we long for the adventure of the mystery of bliss, to the pilgrim's eyes the pathway breaks, and ends in death's abyss; but within the dark are waiting hands that bear the print of nails, which will hold us safe and bear us where the worship never fails. Scripture: John 14:1-4 Used With Tune: EBENEZER

Our Father God in heaven

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith (b. 1926) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: Stages of Life Lyrics: 1 Our Father God in heaven on whom our world depends, to you let praise be given for families and friends; for parents, sisters, brothers, a home where love belongs, but on this day for mothers we bring our thankful songs. 2 What wealth of God's bestowing for all the world to share! what strength of heart outgoing to children everywhere! Our deepest joys and sorrows a mother's path must trace, and earth's unknown tomorrows are held in her embrace. 3 How well we know the story that tells of Jesus' birth, the Lord of heaven's glory become a child of earth; a helpless infant sleeping, yet King of realms above, to find in Mary's keeping the warmth of human love. 4 Our Father God in heaven, to you we lift our prayer, that every child be given such tenderness and care, where life is all for others, where love your love displays: for God's good gift of mothers let earth unite in praise!
