O Lord, You Called Disciples

Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Hymnal: Songs of Grace #15 (2009) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Scripture: Matthew 25:31-46 First Line: O Lord, you called disciples, proclaiming, "Come and see!" Lyrics: O Lord, you called disciples, proclaiming, “Come and see!” And so an invitation began your ministry. Then Andrew called his brother, and Peter came to you; More men and women followed, and little children, too. You met a busy woman out in the noon-day sun. You shared God’s love, you listened; you told all she had done. She called her friends and neighbors and brought them face to face With you, the living water, the bearer of God’s grace. O Christ, your invitation has reached from year to year! Through some who heard you calling, a church was founded here. As faithful people served you a century ago,* They soon invited others; your church began to grow. God, by your Holy Spirit, now send us in your name To serve the lost and outcast, the poor for whom you came. Through gifts of hope and healing, through loving ministry, May we reach out, inviting the world to “Come and see!” *Or “as faithful people served you so many years ago,” Topics: Call/Vocation; Jesus Christ Ministry Languages: English Tune Title: LANCASHIRE

Beside the Great Cathedrals

Author: Daniel Charles Damon Hymnal: New Hymns of Hope #25 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Scripture: Matthew 25:31-46 Lyrics: 1 Beside the great cathedrals we huddle in the rain, or underneath the bridges till busy folks complain. We seek a little shelter, a coin to buy some bread, and Jesus waits here with us. He shares our stony bed. 2 He sings on city sidewalks, he sits on curbs alone, he holds a sign and listens for footsteps on the stone. He sings down by the river, a spiritual, a blues, with mothers and with fathers who pay no union dues. 3 Friend, have you seen him naked, in prison, or in pain, and have you seen him shivering with us out in the rain? Friend, have you seen him sleeping outside cathedral doors, and have you heard him singing with those the world ignores? 4 Sit down with us and listen to stories we can tell of death and resurrection, of heaven and of hell. Then strive to love the beggars who gather at your door, and see in us our Savior, the rabbi of the poor. Topics: Adversity; Hunger; Justice and Peace Languages: English Tune Title: CHARTRES STREET

Hope for a Child

Author: Mary Nelson Keithahn Hymnal: Faith That Lets Us Sing #38 (2017) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Scripture: Matthew 25:35-36 First Line: Hope for a child is a home that's secure Lyrics: 1 Hope, for a child, is a home that’s secure, safety for sleeping, fresh water that’s pure, food on the table, and clean clothes to wear, love without limits from people who care. 2 Yet in our world many children today live without hope, cast aside, tossed away, homeless and hungry, abused, in ill health, shrouded by apathy, hidden from wealth. 3 Who in our midst will show love to the lost? Who will support them, whatever the cost? Who has unlimited power to bring hope to these children, and make their hearts sing? 4 Blessed by our birth, God, with more than is fair, Gratefully, gladly we promise to share all your good gifts with these children in need, following Jesus in word and in deed.

Looking Back, O God, We Wonder

Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Hymnal: Songs of Grace #48 (2009) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Scripture: Matthew 25:38-40 First Line: Looking back, O God, we wonder of that time in history Lyrics: Looking back, O God, we wonder of that time in history When the early settlers gathered, building this community. Children did their chores and played here; men and women worked the land. Sundays, Lord, they knelt and prayed here, seeking your protecting hand. Looking to your love, we worship as your people long have done, Sharing bread and Word and friendship, singing praises to your Son. Bricks of old are such a treasure, well-worn pews proclaim our past; But your love beyond all measure is the treasure that will last. Looking out, we see our neighbors, and—in each one—Jesus’ face. God, we offer you our labors so that all will know your grace. As we witness all around us, as we welcome strangers in, As we help those lost and homeless, your church welcomes you again. Looking on to where we’re going, God, we wonder what will be; Yet we trust your Spirit, knowing you will guide our ministry. You give each new generation ways to praise you, work to do; God, be with this congregation as we keep on serving you. Topics: Anniversary, Church Languages: English Tune Title: HYMN TO JOY
