In Christ our brother working man,
We pray Thee in our midst appear
And help us as we toil and plan;
O wonderful that Thou shouldst be
The Carpenter of Galilee!
2 Great Brother, here with us abide,
Thyself the pattern all men need;
Thy hand to check, Thine eye to guide,
Thy will our wayward wills to lead;
Our Healer when we disagree;
The Carpenter of Galilee.
3 In truest union may we be
Bound by a common Christ-like good,
In temperance, honour, purity,
And self-forgetful brotherhood;
Our rules, the Gospel precepts free
The Carpenter's of Galilee.
4 Whene'er our zeal is burning low,
When right is hard, and easy wrong;
When we despair at progress slow,
And the old sins are pulling strong,
Then for fresh strength we turn to Thee,
The Carpenter of Galilee.
5 Go forth with us, Thou wondrous Guest,
We need Thee in the shop, the home;
Thy presence will our steps arrest
When we shall tempted be to roam;
And men in us Thyself shall see,
The Carpenter of Galilee. Languages: English Tune Title: REST

Hark, the voice of Jesus calling
Author: Dr. D. March, 1816- Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #400 (1917) Topics: Consecration Of Self; Call To Service; The Church and the Kingdom of God Social Service; Decision Call to ; Self-Dedication ; Service Of Christ; Master's Call Lyrics: 1 Hark, the voice of Jesus calling,
"Who will go and work to-day?
Fields are white, and harvests waiting,
Who will bear the sheaves away?"
Loud and long the Master calleth,
Rich reward He offers free;
Who will answer, gladly saying,
"Here am I, O Lord, send me"?
2 If you cannot cross the ocean,
And the heathen lands explore,
You can find the heathen nearer,
You can help them at your door;
If you cannot give your thousands,
You can give the widow's mite,
And the least you give for Jesus
Will be precious in His sight.
3 If you cannot be the watchman
Standing high on Zion's wall,
Pointing out the path to heaven,
Offering life and peace to all,
With your prayers and with your bounties
You can do what Heaven demands;
You can be like faithful Aaron
Holding up the prophet's hands.
4 Let none hear you idly saying,
"There is nothing I can do,"
While the souls of men are dying,
And the Master calls for you;
Take the task He gives you gladly;
Let His work your pleasure be;
Answer quickly when He calleth,
"Here am I, O Lord, send me." Languages: English Tune Title: LUX EOI

God Is Here!
Author: Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: Glory to God #409 (2013) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Children; The Church; Community in Christ; Dedication; Gathering; Lord's Supper; Offering; The Triune God; Vocation; Will of God 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!
Scripture: Isaiah 42:1 Languages: English Tune Title: ABBOT’S LEIGH
God Is Here!
Built on the Rock
Author: Carl Doving; Nikolai F. S. Grundtvig Hymnal: The Hymnbook #432 (1955) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8.8 Topics: Dedication Services Of a Church First Line: Built on the Rock the Church doth stand Lyrics: 1 Built on the Rock the Church doth stand,
Even when steeples are falling;
Crumbled have spires in every land,
Bells still are chiming and calling;
Calling the young and old to rest,
But above all the soul distressed,
Longing for rest everlasting.
2 Surely in temples made with hands,
God, the Most High, is not dwelling,
High above earth His temple stands,
All earthly temples excelling;
Yet He whom heavens cannot contain
Chose to abide on earth with men,
Built in our bodies His temple.
3 We are God's house of living stones,
Builded for His habitation;
He through baptismal grace us owns,
Heirs of His wondrous salvation;
Were we but two His name to tell,
Yet He would deign with us to dwell,
With all His grace and His favor.
4 Now we may gather with our King;
E'en in the lowliest dwelling;
Praises to Him we there may bring,
His wondrous mercy forth-telling;
Jesus His grace to us accords,
Spirit and life are all His words,
His truth doth hollow the temple.
5 Still we our earthly temples rear,
That we may herald His praises;
They are the homes where He draws near
And little children embraces,
Beautiful things in them are said,
God there with us His covenant made,
Making us heirs of His Kingdom.
Amen. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 6:19 Tune Title: BUILT ON THE ROCK

Glorious Things of Thee Are Spoken
Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Hymnbook #434 (1955) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Dedication Services Of a Church 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 waters,
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 Round each habitation hovering,
See the cloud and fire appear
For a glory and a covering,
Showing that the Lord is near:
Thus deriving from their banner
Light by night and shade by day,
Safe they feed upon the manna
Which He gives them when they pray.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 87:3 Tune Title: AUSTRIAN HYMN
Glorious Things of Thee Are Spoken
I Love Thy Kingdom, Lord
Author: Timothy Dwight Hymnal: The Hymnbook #435 (1955) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Dedication Services Of a Church Lyrics: 1 I love Thy Kingdom, Lord,
The house of Thine abode,
The Church our blest Redeemer saved
With His own precious blood.
2 I love Thy Church, O God:
Her walls before Thee stand,
Dear as the apple of Thine eye,
And graven on Thy hand.
3 For her my tears shall fall,
For her my prayers ascend;
To her my cares and toils be given,
Till toils and cares shall end.
4 Beyond my highest joy
I prize her heavenly ways,
Her sweet communion, solemn vows,
Her hymns of love and praise.
5 Sure as Thy truth shall last,
To Zion shall be given
The brightest glories earth can yield,
And brighter bliss of heaven.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 137:5-6 Tune Title: ST. THOMAS
I Love Thy Kingdom, Lord

Author: Samuel Johnson Hymnal: The Hymnbook #436 (1955) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Dedication Services Of a Church First Line: City of God, how broad and far Lyrics: 1 City of God, how broad and far
Outspread thy walls sublime!
The true thy chartered freemen are
Of every age and clime.
2 One holy Church, one army strong,
One steadfast high intent,
One working band, one harvest song,
One King omnipotent!
3 How purely hath thy speech come down
From man's primeval youth;
How grandly hath thine empire grown
Of freedom, love, and truth!
4 How gleam thy watch-fires through the night
With never-fainting ray!
How rise thy towers, serene and bright,
To meet the dawning day!
5 In vain the surge's angry shock,
In vain, the drifting sands:
Unharmed upon th' eternal rock
Th' eternal city stands.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 48:2 Tune Title: RICHMOND
