Hail the Day That Sees Him Rise
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 7.7.7.7 with alleluia Appears in 555 hymnals Topics: Epiphany 7 Year C Lyrics: 1 Hail the day that sees him rise, hallelujah!
taken from our wondering eyes, hallelujah!
Christ, awhile to mortals given, hallelujah!
reascends his native heaven. Hallelujah!
2 There the glorious triumph waits; hallelujah!
lift your heads, eternal gates; hallelujah!
Christ has conquered death and sin; hallelujah!
take the King of glory in. Hallelujah!
3 Though returning to his throne, hallelujah!
still he calls the world his own; hallelujah!
him though highest heaven receives, hallelujah!
still he loves the world he leaves. Hallelujah!
4 See, he lifts his hands above; hallelujah!
see, he shows the prints of love, hallelujah!
hark, his gracious lips bestow, hallelujah!
blessing on the church below. Hallelujah!
5 Still for us he intercedes, hallelujah!
his prevailing death he pleads, hallelujah!
near himself prepares our place, hallelujah!
first-fruits of our human race. Hallelujah! Used With Tune: ASCENSION (MONK)

This Is God's Wondrous World
Author: Maltbie Davenport Babcock Meter: 6.6.8.6 D irregular Appears in 333 hymnals Topics: Epiphany 7 Year A Lyrics: 1 This is God's wondrous world,
and to my listening ears
all nature sings, and round me rings
the music of the spheres.
This is God's wondrous world;
I rest me in the thought
of rocks and trees, of skies and seas,
God's hand the wonders wrought.
2 This is God's wondrous world:
the birds their carols raise,
the morning light, the lily white,
declare their Maker's praise.
This is God's wondrous world:
God shines in all that's fair;
in the rustling grass or mountain pass,
God's voice speaks everywhere.
3 This is God's wondrous world:
O let me ne'er forget
that though the wrong seems oft so strong,
God is the Ruler yet.
This is God's wondrous world:
why should my heart be sad?
Let voices sing, let the heavens ring:
God reigns, let earth be glad!
Amen.

of our life's wild restless sea,

by the Galilean lake,
turned from home and toil and kindred
leaving all for his dear sake.
3 Jesus calls us from the worship
of the vain world's golden store,
from each idol that would keep us,
saying, 'Christian, love me more.'
4 In our joys and in our sorrows,
days of toil and hours of ease,
still he calls, in cares and pleasures,
that we love him more than these.
5 Jesus calls us: by thy mercies,
Saviour, make us hear thy call,
give our hearts to thine obedience,
serve and love thee best of all. Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 1:9 Used With Tune: ST ANDREW

For the Healing of the Nations
Author: Fred Kaan Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 58 hymnals Topics: Epiphany 7 Year C Lyrics: 1 For the healing of the nations,
God, we pray with one accord;
for a just and equal sharing
of the things that earth affords.
To a life of love in action
help us rise and pledge our word.
2 Lead us forward into freedom,
from despair your world release;
that, redeemed from war and hatred,
all may come and go in peace.
Show us how through care and goodness
fear will die and hope increase.
3 All that kills abundant living,
let it from the earth be banned;
pride of status, race or schooling,
dogmas that obscure your plan.
In our common quest for justice
may we hallow life's brief span.
4 You, Creator God, have written
your great name on humankind;
for our growing in your likeness
bring the life of Christ to mind,
that by our response and service
earth its destiny may find. Used With Tune: WESTMINSTER ABBEY

God's eye is on the sparrow,
and I know God watches me. [Refrain] Scripture: Matthew 10:26-30 Used With Tune: SPARROW
