Of All the Spirit's Gifts to Me
Author: Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: CH1995 #270 (1995) Meter: 8.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Of all the Spirit's gifts to me,
I pray that I may never cease
to take and treasure most these three:
love, joy, and peace.
2 The Spirit shows me love's the root
of every gift sent from above,
of every flower, of every fruit,
that God is love.
3 The Spirit shows if I possess
a love no evil can destroy;
however great is my distress,
then this is joy.
4 Though what's ahead is mystery,
and life itself is ours on lease,
each day the Spirit says to me:
"Go forth in peace!"
5 We go in peace, but made aware
that, in a needy world like this,
our clearest purpose is to share
love, joy, and peace. Topics: The Holy Spirit Gifts of the Spirit; God Present in the Holy Spirit Gifts of the Spirit; Joy; Love; Peace on Earth; Holy Spirit Scripture: Galatians 5:22 Languages: English Tune Title: ALMSGIVING

Of Women, and of Women's Hopes We Sing
Author: Shirley Erena Murray Hymnal: CH1995 #686 (1995) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 Of women, and of women's hopes we sing:
of sharing in creation's nurturing,
of bearing and of birthing new belief,
of passion for the promises of life.
2 We praise God whose image is our own,
the mystery within our flesh and bone,
the woman-spirit moving through all time
in prophecy, Magnificat and dream.
3 We labor for the commonwealth of God,
and equal as disciples, walk the road,
in work and status, asking what is just,
for sisters of the family of Christ.
4 Forgiving what is past, we seek the new:
a finer justice, and a peace more true,
the promise of empowering for our day
when men and women roll the stone away. Topics: God's World Dignity and Equality; Dignity and Equality; Empowerment; Hope; Women Languages: English Tune Title: SURSUM CORDA

On Reading the Book of God
Author: Alexander Campbell Hymnal: CH1995 #325 (1995) First Line: Every one who opens the Book of God Lyrics: Every one who opens the Book of God, with one aim, with one ardent desire--intent only to know the will of God--to such a person, the knowledge of God is easy: for the Bible is framed to illuminate such, and only such, with the salutary knowledge of things celestial and divine.
Humility of mind, or what is in effect the same, contempt for all earth-born pre-eminence, prepares the mind for the reception of this light; or, what is virtually the same, opens the ears to hear the voice of God.

And we drew a circle that took him in! Topics: God's Church Life of Discipleship: Trust and Assurance; Assurance; Trust Languages: English
