Lord, You Give the Great Commission

"Heal the sick and preach the word."
Lest the Church neglect its mission,
And the gospel go unheard,
Help us witness to your purpose
With renewed integrity;
With the Spirit's gifts empow'r us
For the work of ministry.
2 Lord, you call us to your service:
"In my name baptize and teach."
That the world may trust your promise,
Life abundant meant for each,
Give us all new fervor, draw us
Closer in community;
With the Spirit's gifts empow'r us
For the work of ministry.
3 Lord, you make the common holy:
"This my body, this my blood."
Let us all, for earth's true glory,
Daily lift life heavenward,
Asking that the world around us
Share your children's liberty;
With the Spirit's gifts empow'r us
For the work of ministry.
4 Lord, you show us love's true measure:
"Father, what they do, forgive."
Yet we hoard as private treasure
All that you so freely give.
May your care and mercy lead us
To a just society;
With the Spirit's gifts empow'r us
For the work of ministry.
5 Lord, you bless with words assuring:
"I am with you to the end."
Faith and hope and love restoring,
May we serve as you intend,
And, amid the cares that claim us,
Hold in mind eternity;
With the Spirit's gifts empow'r us
For the work of ministry. Scripture: Matthew 28:18 Languages: English Tune Title: ABBOT'S LEIGH

Author: Brian Black (born 1926) Hymnal: Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) #612 (1987) Topics: The Ascension of Christ Lyrics: 1 Before the heaven and earth
were made by God's decree,
the Son of God all-glorious dwelt
in God's eternity.
2 Though in the form of God
and rich beyond compare,
he did not stay to grasp his prize;
nor did he linger there.
3 From heights of heaven he came
to this world full of sin,
to meet with hunger, hatred, hell,
our life, our love to win.
4 The Son became true Man
and took a servant's role;
with lowliness and selfless love
he came, to make us whole.
5 Obedient to his death —
that death upon a cross,
no son had ever shown such love
nor father known such loss.
6 To him enthroned on high,
by angel hosts adored,
all knees shall bow, and tongues confess
that Jesus Christ is Lord. Scripture: Philippians 2:5-11 Languages: English Tune Title: NARENZA

O Love, How Deep, How Broad, How High
Author: Thomas à Kempis; Benjamin Webb Hymnal: Glory to God #618 (2013) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christian Year Ascension Lyrics: 1 O love, how deep, how broad, how high,
beyond all thought and fantasy,
that God, the Son of God, should take
our mortal form for mortals' sake.
2 For us baptized, for us he bore
his holy fast and hungered sore;
for us temptations sharp he knew,
for us, the tempter overthrew.
3 For us by wickedness betrayed,
for us, in crown of thorns arrayed,
he bore the shameful cross and death;
for us gave up his dying breath.
4 For us he rose from death again;
for us he went on high to reign;
for us he sent the Spirit here
to guide, to strengthen, and to cheer.
5 All glory to our Lord and God,
for love so deep, so high, so broad:
the Trinity whom we adore
forever and forevermore. Scripture: Matthew 3:13 Languages: English Tune Title: DEO GRACIAS
O Love, How Deep, How Broad, How High

From pole to pole, that wars may cease,
Absorbed in prayer and praise.

And round his pierced feet
Fair flow'rs of Paradise extend
Their fragrance ever sweet.

The risen Lord sublime,
Creator of the rolling spheres,
The Master of all time.
