Creating God, We Give You Thanks
Author: William deWitt Hyde Hymnal: Voices United #292 (1996) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Creating God, we give you thanks
that this your world is incomplete;
that battle calls our marshalled ranks,
that work awaits our hands and feet.
2 You hast not finished woman, man,
for we are in the making still,
as friends who share the Maker’s plan
as those who know your loving will.
3 Beyond the present sin and shame,
wrong’s bitter, cruel, scorching blight,
we see the beckoning vision flame,
the blessèd kingdom of the right.
4 What though the kingdom long delay,
and still with haughty foes must cope?
It gives us that for which to pray,
a field for toil and faith and hope.
5 Since what we choose is what we are,
and what we love we yet shall be,
the goal may ever shine afar,
the will to win it makes us free.

The Glory of These Forty Days
Author: Gregory the Great; Maurice F. Bell Hymnal: Voices Together #305 (2020) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 The glory of these forty days
we celebrate with songs of praise,
for Christ, by whom all things were made,
himself has fasted and has prayed.
2 Alone and fasting Moses saw
the loving God who gave the law.
And to Elijah, fasting, came
the steed and chariots of flame.
3 So Daniel trained his mystic sight,
delivered from the lion’s might.
And John, the Savior’s friend, became
the herald of Messiah’s name.
4 Then grant, O God, that we may, too,
return in fast and prayer to you.
Our spirits strengthen with your grace,
and give us joy to see your face. Topics: Ash Wednesday; Heritage Before 1500; John the Baptist; Lent Scripture: 2 Kings 2:11 Tune Title: WAREHAM

The Church of Christ, in Every Age
Author: Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: The New Century Hymnal #306 (1995) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 The church of Christ in every age
beset by change, but Spirit led,
Must claim and test its heritage
and keep on rising from the dead.
2 Across the world, across the street,
the victims of injustice cry
For shelter and for bread to eat,
and never live before they die.
3 Then let the servant church arise,
a caring church that longs to be
A partner in Christ's sacrifice,
and clothed in Christ's humanity.

We welcome thee in Jesus' name
Author: Ray Palmer Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #307 (1899) Lyrics: 1 We welcome thee in Jesus' name;
He, the Great Shepherd of the sheep,
To us hath sent thee to proclaim
His Gospel and His flock to keep.
2 We welcome thee in this glad hour,
His messenger of peace and love;
Now may the Holy Spirit's power
Fall on thee richly from above.
3 Thy lips be touched with fire divine,
To speak of grace to dying men;
To win the lost the task be thin;
To guide them lest they stray again.
4 The chosen captain of the host;
Our leader sent of Christ to be;
Then shall we serve and please Him most
When with one heart we follow thee.
Amen. Topics: Church Ministry; Installation of Pastor; Ministry Installation of Pastor Languages: English Tune Title: WAREHAM

A Wondrous Mystery Is Here
Author: M. Loy, 1828-1915 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #309 (1996) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 A wondrous mystery is here
To hold in faith and holy fear:
The Savior comes as food divine,
Concealed in earthly bread and wine.
2 This world is loveless, but above,
What wondrous boundlessness of love!
The King of Glory stoops to me
My spirit's life and strength to be.
3 In consecrated wine and bread
No eye perceives the myst'ry spread;
But Jesus' words are strong and clear:
"My body and My blood are here."
4 How dull are all the pow'rs of sense
Employed on proofs of love immense!
The richest food lies hid from view,
The highest gifts we have below.
5 We have no greater boon on earth,
And faith alone discerns its worth,
The Wod, not sense, must be our guide,
Christ's words assure though sight's denied.
6 Lord, show us still the You are good,
And grant us evermore this food
To strengthen ev'ry humble soul
And make each wounded spirit whole.
