Lord, make us cheerful.

make us alert when calm is interrupted,
ready and wise to use the unexpected;
sharpen our insight.

Make Us, O God, a Church That Shares
Author: Victor Kane, 1906-1983 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Challenge Lyrics: 1 Make us, O God, a church
that shares your love for humankind;
that lives the truth your word declares,
and heeds the Master's mind.
Help us reach out with loving hands,
in times that try the soul,
with sympathy that understands
and makes the needy whole.
2 Make us, O God, a church that cares
for every human need;
that suffers when one life despairs,
and moves to intercede.
Give to our voice prophetic pow'r
that stirs each wav'ring heart
to meet the challenge of this hour
and take a noble part.
3 Make us, O God, a church that dares
courageously to act;
that clothes with flesh its fervent prayers
and makes the gospel fact.
Now thrust us from the cloistered halls
where we may want to hide
and send us forth where duty calls
to serve the Crucified! Scripture: Romans 12:9-18 Used With Tune: FOREST GREEN

And led your people to this present hour;
In Christ we see life's glory consummated;
Your Spirit manifests his living pow'r.

The children of your world-wide family;
With contrite hearts we offer our confession,
For we have sinned against your charity.

From all the broken idols of our pride,
We turn to seek your truth's illumination,
And find your mercy waiting at our side.
4 In pity look upon your children's striving
In daily struggles to be understood,
Till at the fullness of your truth arriving,
We find in Christ the crown of ev'ry good.
5 Inspire your church, mid earth's discordant voices,
To preach the gospel of its Lord above,
Until the day this warring world rejoices
To hear the mighty harmonies of love. Scripture: John 17:1-8 Used With Tune: NORTHBROOK

With my heart all aglow to be washed white as snow,

I’m coming (*to thee), I’m coming, dear Saviour, to thee,
With my heart all aglow to be washed white as snow,
I’m coming, dear Saviour, to thee.

Through thy blood shed so freely for me;
To obtain a pure heart and secure the good part,
I am coming, dear Saviour, to thee.
3 All to thee now I give, thine to die, thine to live,
Crucified to the world e’er to be;
To be dead unto sin, with a new life within,
I am coming, dear Saviour, to thee.
4 To be thine, wholly thine, precious Saviour divine,
With my all consecrated to thee,
To be kept every hour by thy love’s wondrous power,

I am coming, Lord, to thee;
Coming now to find thy gladness,
And thy grace, so rich and free.

Fleeting is its glittering show;
When I see my Saviour’s brightness
All is darkness here below.

O Saviour, I am coming,
Coming, coming!
O Saviour, I am coming,
I’m coming now to thee.
2 Coming with my heart of sorrow,
Coming with my life of care,
Coming to the Lord of mercy,
Coming to the God of prayer.
Leaving all the world behind me,
Leaving all my doubts and fears,
Pressing on to find my Saviour,
Who will wipe away my tears.
3 Giving now my soul and body
As an offering, Lord, to thee,
I would follow in thy footsteps,
Living, dying, thine to be.
O in mercy let thy blessing
Fill and overflow my heart!
All my ways and thoughts possessing,
Come, dear Lord, no more to part.
O Saviour, I am coming
Round us flows the cleansing river
Author: Richard Slater (1854-1939) Appears in 6 hymnals Topics: The life of holiness Challenge First Line: Yes, there flows a wondrous river Lyrics: 1 Yes, there flows a wondrous river,

To the soul it is the giver
Of the freedom from all sin.
Refrain:
Round us flows the cleansing river,
The holy, mighty, wonder-working river,
That can make a saint of a sinner;
It flows the throne of God.
2 All who seek this cleansing river
Have their deepest need supplied;
From all ills its waves deliver
When for healing they’re applied.
3 Have you proved this precious river,
Perfect cleansing gaining there?
Losing burdens that need never
Rise again to bring you care?
4 On the margin of this river,
In your stains, why still delay?
Why not now be free for ever
And the voice of God obey?
Round us flows the cleansing river
