Forty days of Eastertide

Author: Jackson Mason Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: Parochial Missions Lyrics: Forty days of Eastertide Thou didst visit oft thine own; Now by glimpses, Lord, descried, Handled now, and proved, and known: Known, most Merciful, yet veiled; Else before the awful sight Surely heart and flesh had failed, Smitten with exceeding light. Risen Master, fain would we, Sharing those unearthly days, Morn and eve, on shore and sea, Watch thy movements, mark thy ways; Catch by faith each glad surprise Of thy footsteps drawing nigh; Hear thy sudden greeting rise, "Peace be to you! It is I!" Secrets of thy kingdom learn, Read the vision open spread, Feel thy word within us burn, Know thee in the broken Bread. So thy glory's skirts beside, Gently led from grace to grace, We thy coming may abide, And adore thee face to face. Amen. Used With Tune: NEWINGTON

Through the night, they labored, watching, hauling empty nets back in. In the grey of early morning, Jesus, you came walking by. From the beach you called a greeting, "Cast out on the other side!" 2 Soon their nets were filled to brimming; someone cried, "It is the Lord!" Jumping in, he started swimming; Christ, you met him on the shore. Guiding them to better waters, eating fish and sharing bread - you showed Peter and the others: You were risen from the dead! 3 Risen Christ, you send us fishing! God's great sea is everywhere. you have guided us in mission, you have given love to share. Through the years, our church has heard you, we have answered your great call: "Cast your nets where I have told you. Bring my Word of love to all!" 4 Lord, be with our congregation; by your Spirit, send us forth! May we care for your creation; may we work for peace on earth. In our worship, in our giving, in our serving those in need, may we know, Lord; you are living, guiding us in ministry. Scripture: John 21:1-14 Used With Tune: ST. JOHN'S QUADRA
