How Can We Name a Love
Author: Brian Wren, 1936- Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: Marriage Lyrics: 1 How can we name a Love
that wakens heart and mind,
indwelling all we know
or think or do or seek or find?
Within our daily world,
in every human face,
Love's echoes sound and God is found,
hid in the commonplace.
2 If we awoke to life
upheld by loving care
that asked no great reward
but firm, assured, was simply there,
we can, with parents' names,
describe, and thus adore,
Love unconfined, our Father kind,
our Mother strong and sure.
3 When people share a task,
and strength and skills unite
in projects old or new,
to make or do with shared delight,
our Friend and Partner's will
is better understood,
that all should share, create, and care,
and know that life is good.
4 So in a hundred names,
each day we all can meet
a presence, sensed and shown
at work, at home, or in the street.
Yet names and titles all
shine in a brighter sun:
in Christ alone is full Love grown
and life and hope begun. Scripture: Romans 5:1-5 Used With Tune: ICH HALTE TREULICH STILL

O Happy Home, Where Thou Art Loved
Author: Carl J. P. Spitta; Sarah B. Findlater Meter: 11.10.11.10 Appears in 139 hymnals Topics: Special Topics Marriage and the Home First Line: O happy home, where thou art loved the dearest Lyrics: 1 O happy home, where thou art loved the dearest,
thou loving Friend and Savior of our race,
and where among the guests there never cometh
one who can hold such high and honored place!
2 O happy home, where two in heart united
in holy faith and blessed hope are one,
whom death a little while alone divideth,
and cannot end the union here begun!
3 O happy home, whose little ones are given
early to thee in humble faith and prayer,
to thee, their Friend, who from the heights of heaven
guides them, and guards with more than mother's care!
4 O happy home, where each one serves thee, lowly,
whatever his appointed work may be,
till ev'ry common task seems great and holy,
when it is done, O Lord, as unto thee!
5 O happy home, where thou art not forgotten
when joy is overflowing, full and free,
O happy home, where ev'ry wounded spirit
is brought, Physician, Comforter, to thee -
6 Until at last, when earth's day's work is ended,
all meet thee in the blessed home above,
from whence thou camest, where thou hast ascended,
thine everlasting home of peace and love.
Scripture: Joshua 24:15 Used With Tune: COMMUNION
O Happy Home, Where Thou Art Loved
When Love Is Found
Author: Brian Wren, b. 1936 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 32 hymnals Topics: Occasional Services Marriage First Line: When love is found and hope comes home Lyrics: 1 When love is found and hope comes home,
sing and be glad that two are one.
When love explodes and fills the sky,
praise God and share our Maker's joy.
2 When love has flowered in trust and care,
build both each day that love may dare
to reach beyond home's warmth and light,
to serve and strive for truth and right.
3 When love is tried as loved ones change,
hold still to hope though all seems strange,
till ease returns and love grows wise
through listening ears and opened eyes.
4 When love is tried and trust betrayed,
pray strength to love till torments fade,
till lovers keep no score of wrong
but hear through pain love's Easter song.
5 Praise God for love, praise God for life,
in age or youth, in calm or strife.
Lift up your hearts, let love be fed
through death and life in broken bread. Scripture: Genesis 24:47-51 Used With Tune: O WALY WALY

Lord of Our Growing Years
Author: David Mowbray, b. 1938 Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 12 hymnals Topics: Marriage Lyrics: 1 Lord of our growing years,
With us from infancy,
Laughter and quick-dried tears,
Freshness and energy:
Your grace surrounds us all our days--
For all your gifts we bring our praise.
2 Lord of our strongest years,
Stretching our youthful pow'rs,
Lovers and pioneers
When all the world seems ours:
Your grace surrounds us all our days--
For all your gifts we bring our praise.
3 Lord of our middle years,
Giver of steadfastness,
Courage that perseveres
When there is small success:
Your grace surrounds us all our days--
For all your gifts we bring our praise.
4 Lord of our older years,
Steep though the road may be,
Rid us of foolish fears,
Bring us serenity:
Your grace surrounds us all our days--
For all your gifts we bring our praise.
5 Lord of our closing years,
Always your promise stands;
Hold us, when death appears,
Safely within your hands:
Your grace surrounds us all our days--
For all your gifts we bring our praise. Used With Tune: LITTLE CORNARD
