Living Lord of Love's Dominion
Author: David A. Robb (1932-) Hymnal: Common Praise (1998) #453 (1998) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Call and Vocation Lyrics: 1 Living Lord of Love's dominion,
sovereign Saviour, bless your church ;
call us still as your disciples --
loving, serving, while we search.
Gathered: feed our deepest being
prophet's truth and godly nerve;
scattered: let our lives' fruition
nourish others while we serve.
2 Visit towns and inner cities;
penetrate our steel and stone
with a love that melt our coldness,
making mission here our own.
We will seek you, love transfigured,
in our neighbour's need
until deep within our daily service
love draws forth our utmost skill.
3 With your bread, your wine, your Spirit,
nurture us for your intent;
let your will be our vocation
lived as song and sacrament.
May compassion lead to service
till we join the saints above;
grant us hope for each tomorrow;
fill our faith with vibrant love! Scripture: Ezekiel 36:24-28 Languages: English Tune Title: PLEADING SAVIOUR

God Is Here!
Author: Fred Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Worship #526 (2006) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Vocation, Ministry; Vocation, Ministry First Line: God is here! As we your people Lyrics: 1 God is here! As we your people
meet to offer praise and prayer,
may we find in fuller measure
what it is in Christ we share.
Here, as in the world around us,
all our varied skills and arts
wait the coming of the Spirit
into open minds and hearts.
2 Here are symbols to remind us
of our lifelong need of grace;
here are table, font, and pulpit;
here the cross has central place.
Here in honesty of preaching,
here in silence, as in speech,
here, in newness and renewal,
God the Spirit comes to each.
3 Here our children find a welcome
in the Shepherd's flock and fold;
here as bread and wine are taken,
Christ sustains us as of old.
Here the servants of the Servant
seek in worship to explore
what it means in daily living
to believe and to adore.
4 Lord of all, of church and kingdom,
in an age of change and doubt,
keep us faithful to the gospel;
help us work your purpose out.
Here, in this day's dedication,
all we have to give, receive;
we, who cannot live without you,
we adore you! We believe!

Lest the church neglect its mission,

help us witness to your purpose
with renewed integrity:
Refrain:
With the Spirit's gifts empow'r us

That the world may trust your promise,

give us all new fervor, draw us
closer in community: [Refrain]

daily lift life heavenward,
asking that the world around us
share your children's liberty: [Refrain]

"Father, what they do, forgive."
Yet we hoard as private treasure
all that you so freely give.
May your care and mercy lead us
to a just society: [Refrain]

"I am with you to the end."
Faith and hope and love restoring,
may we serve as you intend
and, amid the cares that claim us,
hold in mind eternity: [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: ABBOT'S LEIGH
