on this assembly here;
O send thy spirit's power
and fill with holy fear
this sacred place:

with holy fire
and heavenly grace.

by precepts clear,
by love sincere,

to thee their hymns of praise;

the offering of their days:
let hearts inspire
in holy fear,
in friendship dear,
and warm desire.

thy peace and joy and love
attend us day by day;

In all Thy saving might
And prosper each design
To spread Thy glorious light;

That all the earth Thy truth may know.

To sing Thy glorious praise;
Let ev'ry people hear
And learn Thy holy ways.
Reign, mighty God, assert Thy cause
And govern by Thy righteous laws.

That Gentiles all may see
And earth present her store
In converts born to Thee.
God, our own God, His Church will bless
And fill the world with righteousness.

The one immortal King,
Let hallelujahs rise
From ev'ry living thing;
Let all that breathe, on ev'ry coast
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

Lo, from the desert homes
Author: Charles Coffin, 1676-1749; Isaac Williams, 1802-1865 Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.4.4 Appears in 18 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lo, from the desert homes,
where he hath hid so long,
the new Elijah comes,
in sternest wisdom strong;
the voice that cries
of Christ from high,
and judgement nigh
from opening skies.
2 Your God e’en now doth stand
at heaven’s opening door;
his fan is in his hand,
and he will purge his floor;
the wheat he claims
and with him stows,
the chaff He throws
to quenchless flames.
3 Ye haughty mountains, bow
your sky-aspiring heads;
ye valleys, hiding low,
lift up your gentle meads;
make his way plain
your king before,
for evermore
he comes to reign.
4 May thy dread voice around,
thou harbinger of Light,
on our dull ears still sound,
lest here we sleep in night,
till judgement come,
and on our path
the Lamb's dread wrath
shall burst in doom.
5 O God, with love’s sweet might,
who dost anoint and arm
Christ’s soldier for the fight
with grace that shields from harm
thrice blessèd Three,
heaven’s endless days
shall sing thy praise
eternally. Topics: Saints' and Other Holy Days St. John the Baptist Scripture: Matthew 3:1-3 Used With Tune: DARWALL'S 148TH

upon the shameful tree,
have paid the law's full price
and purchased peace for me. [Refrain]
3 Thy cross, not mine, O Christ,
has borne the awful load
of sins that none in heav'n
or earth could bear but God. [Refrain]

alone can cover me:
no righteousness avails
save that which is of thee. [Refrain]

Let all creation dance
Author: Brian Wren (b. 1936) Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.4.4 Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Let all creation dance
in energies sublime,
as order turns with chance,
unfolding space and time;
for nature's art
in glory grows,
and newly shows
God's mind and heart.
2 God's breath each force unfurls,
igniting from a spark
expanding starry swirls,
with whirlpools dense and dark.
Though moon and sun
seem mindless things,
each orbit sings:
'your will be done.'
3 Our own amazing earth,
with sunlight, cloud and storms,
and life's abundant growth
in lovely shapes and forms
is made for praise,
a fragile whole,
and from its soul
heaven's music plays.
4 Lift heart and soul and voice:
in Christ all praises meet,
and nature shall rejoice
as all is made complete.
In hope be strong,
all life befriend,
and kindly tend
creation's song. Topics: Beauty; Creation; Creation and the Environment; Dance; Environmental concern; Music and Song; Science and Technology Scripture: Genesis 1 Used With Tune: DARWALL'S 148TH
