The christian suff'rings here below
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Romans 8:18-23 Lyrics: 1 The christian suff'rings here below,
Do not deserve to be compar'd!
Unto the joys God will bestow,
To those who trust unto his word.
2 On this sure promise they may build!
They never need to doubt or fear--
Such glories are in them reveal'd,
Which will repay their suff'rings here.
3 Happy will be the time indeed,
For which the whole creation wait;
When ev'ry creature shall be freed
From their oppress'd and mournful state.
4 In Adam's fall the whole was made,
Subject to vanity and sin--
the curse on all the earth was laid,
And all that is contain'd therein.
5 All creatures may be said to groan,
And travel in distress and pain;
All living creatures, Sun and Moon,
They feel the curse of guilt and stain.
6 But when the blessed sons of God
In all their glory come to view;
When heav'n and earth shall be renew'd,
All creatures are redeemed too.

Great ring of light, true circle with no ending
Author: Colin Alexander Gibson (b. 1933) Meter: 12.12.12 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Romans 8:27 Lyrics: 1 Great ring of light, true circle with no ending;
clear beam so bright, whose purpose knows no bending;
O Word of God, in darkness always shining out.
2 A man who cried, up on a cross at Calvary;
for him who died, an empty tomb, a mystery;
O risen Christ, all pain and loss transcending.
3 Immortal fire of love forever yearning;
flame of desire for our salvation burning;
Spirit divine, our friend, and present comforter.
4 The light shines still, the eternal Word has spoken;
on Calvary's hill the power of death is broken;
and I receive the life, the joy, the loving. Topics: Christ Risen Reign and Priesthood; God in Trinity; Holy Spirit name and images for; Jesus Word of God; Light; Word of God Used With Tune: HALLEY

Creator God, You Made the Earth
Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Romans 8:18-23 Lyrics: Creator God, you made the earth,
A gift beyond comparing!
You called it good, you gave it worth,
You placed it in our caring.
You gave your gift of Sabbath rest,
Your pattern for creation.
You give us times to heal, to bless,
To join in celebration.
You give us Christ, who reconciled
The things of earth and heaven.
In him, you call each one your child!
What wondrous love you've given!
Because we've turned away from you,
This world still needs your healing.
Creation longs to be made new
Through Christ, your love revealing.
God, by your Spirit, may we be
Communities of caring,
That as we're healed, your world may see
The hope that we are sharing. Topics: Covenant/Salvation History; Creation/Earth Day/Environmnet; Sunday/Sabbath Used With Tune: ST. COLUMBA
