All Who Love and Serve Your City
Author: Erik Routley Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #433 (1989) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Topics: Discipleship and Service Lyrics: 1 All who love and serve your city,
all who bear its daily stress,
all who cry for peace and justice,
all who curse and all who bless:
2 In your day of loss and sorrow,
in your day of helpless strife,
honor, peace, and love retreating,
seek the Lord, who is your life.
3 In your day of wealth and plenty,
wasted work and wasted play,
call to mind the word of Jesus,
"Work ye yet while it is day."
4 For all days are days of judgment,
and the Lord is waiting still,
drawing near to all who spurn him,
offering peace from Calvary's hill.
5 Risen Lord, shall yet the city
be the city of despair?
Come today, our Judge, our Glory,
be its name, "The Lord is there!"
Scripture: Ezekiel 48:35 Languages: English Tune Title: CHARLESTOWN
All Who Love and Serve Your City
The Voice of God is Calling
Author: John Haynes Holmes Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #436 (1989) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Discipleship and Service Lyrics: 1. The voice of God is calling
its summons in our day;
Isaiah heard in Zion,
and we now hear God say:
"Whom shall I send to succor
my people in their need?
Whom shall I send to loosen
the bonds of shame and greed?
2. "I hear my people crying
in slum and mine and mill;
no field or mart is silent,
no city street is still.
I see my people falling
in darkness and despair.
Whom shall I send to shatter
the fetters which they bear?"
3. We heed, O Lord, your summons,
and answer: Here are we!
Send us upon your errand,
let us your servants be.
Our strength is dust and ashes,
our years a passing hour;
but you can use our weakness
to magnify your power.
4. From ease and plenty save us;
from pride of place absolve;
purge us of low desire;
lift us to high resolve;
take us, and make us holy;
teach us your will and way.
Speak, and behold! we answer;
command, and we obey!
Scripture: Isaiah 6:8 Languages: English Tune Title: MEIRIONYDD

O Young and Fearless Prophet
Author: S. Ralph Harlow Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #444 (1989) Meter: 13.13.13.13 Topics: Discipleship and Service First Line: O young and fearless Prophet of ancient Galilee Lyrics: 1. O young and fearless Prophet of ancient Galilee,
thy life is still a summons to serve humanity;
to make our thoughts and actions less prone to please the crowd,
to stand with humble courage for truth with hearts uncowed.
2. We marvel at the purpose that held thee to thy course
while ever on the hilltop before thee loomed the cross;
thy steadfast face set forward where love and duty shone,
while we betray so quickly and leave thee there alone.
3. O help us stand unswerving against war's bloody way,
where hate and lust and falsehood hold back Christ's holy sway;
forbid false love of country that blinds us to his call,
who lifts above the nations the unity of all.
4. Stir up in us a protest against our greed for wealth,
while others starve and hunger and plead for work and health;
where homes with little children cry out for lack of bread,
who live their years sore burdened beneath a gloomy dread.
5. O young and fearless Prophet, we need thy presence here,
amid our pride and glory to see thy face appear;
once more to hear thy challenge above our noisy day,
again to lead us forward along God's holy way. Languages: English Tune Title: BLAIRGOWRIE
O Young and Fearless Prophet
How Clear Is Our Vocation, Lord
Author: Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: Voices United #504 (1996) Meter: 8.6.8.8.6.6 Topics: Discipleship and Service Lyrics: 1 How clear is our vocation, Lord,
when once we heed your call:
to live according to your word,
and daily learn, refreshed, restored,
that you are over all
and will not let us fall.
2 But if, forgetful, we should find
your yoke is hard to bear,
if worldly pressures fray the mind
and love itself cannot unwind
its tangled skein of care:
our inward life repair.
3 We mark your saints, how they become
in hindrances more sure,
whose joyful virtues put to shame
the casual way we wear your name,
and by our faults obscure
your power to cleanse and cure.
4 In what you give us, here, to do,
together or alone,
in old routines and ventures new,
may we not cease to look to you,
the cross you hung upon --
all you endeavoured done. Languages: English Tune Title: REPTON

Filled with the Spirit's Power

the infant church confessed its risen Lord.
O Holy Spirit, in the church today
no less your power of fellowship display.

that unity may be our great desire.
Give joy and peace; give faith to hear your call,
and readiness in each to work for all.

in your strong care all those of every race.
Like wind and fire with life among us move,
till we are known as Christ's, and Christians prove.

Christ for the World We Sing
Author: Samuel Wolcott Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #568 (1989) Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Topics: Discipleship and Service Lyrics: 1. Christ for the world we sing,
the world to Christ we bring,
with loving zeal;
the poor, and them that mourn,
the faint and overborne,
sin-sick and sorrow-worn,
whom Christ doth heal.
2. Christ for the world we sing,
the world to Christ we bring,
with fervent prayer;
the wayward and the lost,
by restless passions tossed,
redeemed at countless cost,
from dark despair.
3. Christ for the world we sing,
the world to Christ we bring,
with one accord;
with us the work to share,
with us reproach to dare,
with us the cross to bear,
for Christ our Lord.
4. Christ for the world we sing,
the world to Christ we bring,
with joyful song;
the newborn souls, whose days,
reclaimed from error's ways,
inspired with hope and praise,
to Christ belong.
