All praise to our redeeming Lord
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-88 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 142 hymnals Topics: Nurturing God's People Lyrics: 1 All praise to our redeeming Lord,
who joins us by his grace,
and bids us, each to each restored,
together seek his face.
2 He bids us build each other up;
and gathered into one,
to our high calling’s glorious hope,
we hand in hand go on.
3 The gift which he on one bestows
we all delight to prove;
the grace through every vessel flows,
in purest streams of love.
4 Even now we think and speak the same,
and cordially agree;
concentered all, through Jesus’ name,
in perfect harmony.
5 We all partake the joy of one,
the common peace we feel,
a peace to sensual minds unknown,
a joy unspeakable.
6 And if our fellowship below
in Jesus be so sweet,
What height of rapture shall we know
When round his throne we meet. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 12:4-11 Used With Tune: NEWINGTON

What sudden radiance from afar!
It cheers us with its shining.
Brightness of God, that breaks our night
and fills the darkened souls with light,
who long for truth were pining!
Newly, truly God's word feeds us,
rightly leads us,
life bestowing.
Praise, O praise such love o'erflowing!
2 All praise to him who came to save,
who conquered death and scorned the grave;
each day new praise resoundeth
to him, the life who once was slain,
the friend whom none shall trust in vain,
whose grace for aye aboundeth;
sing then, ring then, tell the story
of his glory,
till his praises
flood with light earth's darkest mazes! Used With Tune: WIE SCHÖN LEUCHTET
