Let all creation dance

Author: Brian Wren (b. 1936) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #539 (2013) Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.4.4 Topics: Beauty; Creation; Creation and the Environment; Dance; Environmental concern; Music and Song; Science and Technology 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. Scripture: Job 38 Languages: English Tune Title: DARWALL'S 148TH

Jesus sought me when a stranger, wandering from the fold of God; he, to rescue me from danger, interposed his precious blood. 3 O to grace how great a debtor daily I'm constrained to be! Let that grace, Lord, like a fetter, bind my wandering heart to thee. Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it, prone to leave the God I love; take my heart, O take and seal it, seal it from thy courts above!

Faber Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #121 (1989) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Topics: Freedom and Liberation Lyrics: 1 There’s a wideness in God’s mercy like the wideness of the sea; there’s a kindness in God's justice, which is more than liberty. 2 There is welcome for the sinner, and more graces for the good! There is mercy with the Savior; there is healing in his blood. 3 For the love of God is broader than the measure of our mind; and the heart of the Eternal is most wonderfully kind. 4 If our love were but more simple, we should rest upon God's word; and our lives would be illumined by the presence of our Lord.
