Blessed Feasts of Blessed Martyrs

Author: John M. Neale, 1818-1866 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 26 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Blessed feasts of blessed martyrs, Holy women, holy men, With our love and admiration, Greet we your return again. Worthy deeds are theirs, and wonders, Worthy of the name they bore; We, with joyful praise and singing, Honor them for evermore. 2 Faith prevailing, hope unfailing, Loving Christ with single heart, Thus they, glorious and victorious Bravely bore the martyr's part By contempt of every anguish, By unyielding battle done; Victors at the last, they triumph With the host of angels one. 3 Therefore, all that reign in glory, Strong and sure with Christ on high, Join to ours your supplication When before him we draw nigh, Praying that, this life completed, All its fleeting moments past, By his grace we may be worthy Of eternal bliss at last.

Looking Back, O God, We Wonder

Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1 hymnal 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.
