Glorious Things of Thee Are Spoken
Author: John Newton Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #393 (1985) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of thee are spoken,
Zion, city of our God;
he, whose word cannot be broken,
formed thee for his own abode;
on the Rock of Ages founded,
what can shake thy sure repose?
With salvation’s walls surrounded,
thou mayst smile at all thy foes.
2 See the streams of living water
springing from eternal love,
well supply thy sons and daughters,
and all fear of want remove;
who can faint while such a river
ever flows their thirst to assuage,
grace which, like the Lord, the giver,
never fails from age to age.
3 Blest inhabitants of Zion,
washed in their Redeemer's blood,
Jesus, whom their souls rely on,
makes them kings and priests to God.
'Tis his love his people raises
over self to reign as kings,
and as priests, his solemn praises
each for a thank-off'ring brings.
4 Savior, if of Zion's city
I through grace a member am,
let the world deride or pity--
I will glory in thy name;
fading are the worldling's pleasures,
all their boasted pomp and show;
solid joys and lasting treasure
none but Zion's children know.

Glorious Things of Thee Are Spoken
God Is Here!
Author: Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: Glory to God #409 (2013) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: God is here! As we your people Lyrics: 1 God is here! As we your people
meet to offer praise and prayer,
may we find in fuller measure
what it is in Christ we share.
Here, as in the world around us,
all our varied skills and arts
wait the coming of the Spirit
into open minds and hearts.
2 Here are symbols to remind us
of our lifelong need of grace;
here are table, font, and pulpit;
here the cross has central place.
Here in honesty of preaching,
here in silence, as in speech,
here, in newness and renewal,
God the Spirit comes to each.
3 Here our children find a welcome
in the Shepherd's flock and fold;
here as bread and wine are taken,
Christ sustains us as of old.
Here the servants of the Servant
seek in worship to explore
what it means in daily living
to believe and to adore.
4 Lord of all, of church and kingdom,
in an age of change and doubt
keep us faithful to the gospel;
help us work your purpose out.
Here, in this day's dedication,
all we have to give, receive:
we, who cannot live without you,
we adore you! We believe!

You That Know the Lord Is Gracious
Author: C. A. Alington Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #424 (1985) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 You that know the Lord is gracious,
you for whom a cornerstone
stands, of God elect and precious,
laid that you may build thereon,
see that on that sure foundation
you a living temple raise,
towers that may tell forth salvatiton,
walls that may re-echo praise.
2 Living stones by God appointed
each to an allotted place,
kings and priests, by God anointed,
shall you not declare his grace?
You, a royal generation,
tell the tidings of your birth,
tidings of a new creation
to an old and weary earth.
3 Tell the praise of him who called you
out of darkness into light,
broke the fetters that enthralled you,
gave you freedom, peace, and sight:
tell the tale of sins forgiven,
strength renewed, and hope restored,
till the earth, in tune with heaven,
praise an magnify the Lord. Topics: Call and Response Scripture: Isaiah 60:18 Languages: English Tune Title: ABBOT'S LEIGH

Lord, You Give the Great Commission
Author: Jeffery W. Rowthorn Hymnal: The Presbyterian Hymnal #429 (1990) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Lord, you give the great commission:
"Heal the sick and preach the word."
Lest the church neglect its mission,
And the gospel go unheard,
Help us witness to your purpose
With renewed integrity;
With the Spirit's gifts empower us
For the work of ministry.
2 Lord, you call us to your service:
"In my name baptize and teach."
That the world may trust your promise,
Life abundant meant for each,
Give us all new fervor, draw us
Closer in community;
With the Spirit's gifts empower us
For the work of ministry.
3 Lord, you make the common holy:
"This my body, this my blood."
Let us all, for earth's true glory,
Daily lift life heavenward,
Asking that the world around us
Share your children's liberty;
With the Spirit's gifts empower us
For the work of ministry.
4 Lord, you show us love's true measure:
"Father, what they do, forgive."
Yet we hoard as private treasure
All that you so freely give.
May your care and mercy lead us
To a just society:
With the Spirit's gifts empower us
For the work of ministry.
5 Lord, you bless with words assuring:
"I am with you to the end."
Faith and hope and love restoring,
may we serve as you intend,
and, amid the cares that claim us,
hold in mind eternity:
With the Spirit's gifts empower us
For the work of ministry.
