A practical Improvement of Baptism
Author: Dr. Doddridge Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 62 hymnals Scripture: Colossians 3:1 First Line: Attend, ye children of your God Lyrics: 1 Attend, ye children of your God
Ye heirs of glory hear;
Let accents so divine as these,
Might charm the dullest ear.
2 Baptiz'd into your Savior's death,
Your souls to sin must die;
With Christ your Lord, ye live anew,
With Christ ascend on high.
3 There by his father's side he sits
Enthron'd divinely far;
Yet owns himself your brother still,
And your forerunner there.
4 Rise from these earthly trifles, rise
On wings of faith and love;
Above your choicest treasure lies,
And be your hearts above.
5 But earth and sin will drag us down,
When we attempt to fly;
Lord, send thy strong attractive power
To raise and fix us high. Topics: Baptism

Come, Let Us with Our Lord Arise
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 25 hymnals Scripture: Colossians 3:10 Lyrics: 1 Come let us with our Lord arise,
our Lord, who made both earth and skies,
who died to save the world he made,
and rose triumphant from the dead;
he rose, the Prince of life and peace,
and stamped the day forever his.
2 This is the day the Lord hath made,
that all may see his love displayed,
may feel his resurrection's pow'r,
and rise again, to fall no more,
in perfect righeousness renewed,
and filled with all the life of God.
3 Then let us render him his own,
with solemn prayer approach his throne,
with meekness hear the gospel word,
with thanks his dying love record,
our joyful hearts and voices raise,
and fill his courts with songs of praise.

Help Us Accept Each Other
Author: Fred Kaan, 1929- Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 24 hymnals Scripture: Colossians 3:13 Lyrics: 1 Help us accept each other
as Christ accepted us;
teach us as sister, brother,
each person to embrace.
Be present, Lord, among us
and bring us to believe
we are ourselves accepted,
and meant to love and live.
2 Teach us, O Lord, your lessons,
as in our daily life
we struggle to be human
and search for hope and faith.
Teach us to care for people,
for all, not just for some,
to love them as we find them,
or as they may become.
3 Let your acceptance change us,
so that we may be moved
in living situations to do the truth in love;
to practice your acceptance
until we know by heart
the table of forgiveness,
and laughter's healing art.
4 Lord, for today's encounters
with all who are in need,
who hunger for acceptance,
for righteousness and bread,
we need new eyes for seeing,
new hands for holding on;
renew us with your Spirit,
Lord, free us, make us one!

For the Music of Creation
Author: Shirley Erena Murray, 1931- Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 10 hymnals Scripture: Colossians 3:16 Lyrics: 1 For the music of creation,
for the song your Spirit sings,
for your sound’s divine expression,
burst of joy in living things:
God, our God, the world’s composer,
hear us, echoes of your voice;
music is your art, your glory,
let the human heart rejoice!
2 Psalms and symphonies exalt you,
drum and trumpet, string and reed,
simple melodies acclaim you,
tunes that rise from deepest need,
hymns of longing and belonging,
carols from a cheerful throat,
lilt of lullaby and love song
catching heaven in a note.
3 All the voices of the ages
in transcendent chorus meet,
worship lifting up the senses,
hands that praise, and dancing feet;
over discord and division
music speaks your joy and peace,
harmony of earth and heaven,
song of God that cannot cease!

lift up our hearts in praise;

in joy and peace, in faith and love.

teach us to walk his way;
so bring us all at length
safe to the close of day:
from hour to hour sustain and bless,
and let our song be thankfulness.

make it the best of days;
take from us all our sins,
guard us in all our ways:

that Christ in all be glorified! Topics: MORNING Used With Tune: LITTLE CORNARD
