Blest Are God's Peacemaking Ones

Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Blest are God's peacemaking ones, Sent to work in countless ways-- Lyrics: Blest are God’s peacemaking ones, Sent to work in countless ways— God’s own daughters, God’s own sons, Serving without seeking praise. Yet like leaven in our bread, They persist to change us all. By God’s Spirit, they are led T o pursue God’s peaceful call. Bless-ed are God’s prophets, too, Called to challenge what we know. Working for a world that’s new, Calling us to change and grow. Though the message that they bear Stands against what powers say— It is Jesus’ word they share, News of God’s new breaking day. God, through Jesus’ love and grace, May we live what we profess. In the challenges we face, May we know what makes us blest. May we stand against the wrong; May our thirst for you increase. Give to us a prophet’s song! May we work to bring your peace! Topics: Justice; Peacemaking Scripture: Luke 13:20-21 Used With Tune: ABERYSTWYTH

What But Thy Right Hand Of Power?

Lord, in this poor groveling soul Now Thy Spirit’s power exert, Now my unbelief control, Purify and calm my heart. 2 Master, at Thy feet I wait Thy reviving voice to hear: Raise me to my first estate, Show Thyself the Finisher, Perfect what Thou hast begun, And when all my griefs are past, And when all my work is done, Glorify my soul at last.

Wild and Lone the Prophet's Voice

Author: Carl P. Daw Jr. Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 9 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Wild and lone the prophet's voice Echoes through the desert still, Calling us to make a choice, Bidding us to do God's will: "Turn from sin and be baptized; Cleanse your heart and mind and soul. Quitting all the sins you prized, Yield your life to God's control. 2 "Bear the fruit repentance sows: Lives of justice, truth, and love. Trust no other claim than those; Set your heart on things above. Soon the Lord will come in power, Burning clean the threshing floor: Then will flames the chaff devour; Wheat alone shall fill God's store." 3 With such preaching stark and bold John proclaimed salvation near, And his timeless warnings hold Words of hope to all who hear. So we dare to journey on, Led by faith through ways untrod, Till we come at last like John To behold the Lamb of God.

Depth of Mercy! Can There Be

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 831 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Depth of mercy! Can there be mercy still reserved for me? Can my God His wrath forbear, me, the chief of sinners, spare? I have long withstood His grace, long provoked Him to His face, would not hearken to His calls, grieved Him by a thousand falls. 2 I my Master have denied, I afresh have crucified, and profaned His hallow'd name, put Him to an open shame. Whence to me this waste of love? Ask my Advocate above! See the cause in Jesus' face, now before the throne of grace. 3 Jesus, answer from above, is not all Thy nature love? Will Thou not the wrong forget, permit me to kiss Thy feet? If I rightly read Thy heart, if Thou all compassion art, bow Thine ear, in mercy bow, pardon and accept me now. 4 There for me the Savior stands, shows His wounds and spreads His hands. God is love! I know, I feel, Jesus weeps and loves me still. Now incline me to repent, let me now my fall lament, now my foul revolt deplore, weep, believe, and sin no more.

Térjetek Meg, Emberek

Author: Charles Wesley; Anna Piroska Williams Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Térjetek meg, emberek, M’ért, ó m’ért halnátok meg? Alkotótok én vagyok, Hadd kérdjem hát, mi az ok…? Halni fogtok nélkülem, Kit teremtett szent kezem— Értelmetlen emberek, M’ért, ó m’ért halnátok meg? 2 Térjetek meg, emberek! M’ért, ó m’ért halnátok meg? Megváltótok, kérdelek— Meghaltam, hogy éljetek! Mindhiába keresztem? ‘Mit sem ér szeretetem? Ó, megváltott bűnösök! M’ért vagytok csökönyösök? 3 Térjetek meg, emberek! M’ért, ó m’ért halnátok meg? Én, a Lélek, kérdelek, Egyre édesgettelek! M’ért veted meg azt, mi jó? Élni nem vagy hajlandó? Megbántod a Szentlelket— S eldobod az életet? 4 Értelemmel áldott lény Nincsen más a földtekén! Istened ismerheted, Ám mi lesz, ha elveted? M’ért lennél hát oktalan? Elárvult, boldogtalan? Jézusban a menny tied— Örök életed lehet! 5 Téged ő úgy alkotott, Képmását hordozhatod. Életed Ő tartja fenn, Érted járt Ő idelenn. Érted őt elárulták, Érted vállalt kínhalált. Alkotott és megváltott— M’ért halálod választod? 6 Ő melletted el nem megy, Sorsod néki nem mindegy! Teljes megváltást adott— Életed választhatod! Mondd, érted még mit tehet, Érted mit már meg nem tett? Bíráddal megbékített, Üdvödért Ő vérezett. 7 Bibliád Te ismered, Tudod jól, elhiheted! Mind igaz, mit olvasol, Abból élet szava szól! "Térjetek meg!" egyre szól, Szava hangzik mindenhol: Jöjj, ó, jöjj, mert vár Urad! Minden embert elfogad! 8 Térjetek meg, emberek, Szent szavának higgyetek! Mernéd kétleni szavát? Isten fájó hívását? Nem lehettek boldogok, Hogyha tőlem elfuttok. Gyertek hozzám, emberek! Senkit én el nem vetek! Used With Tune: ABERTYSTWYTH
