Come, O Spirit, Dwell Among Us

Author: Janie Alford Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 5 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 2:6-7 Lyrics: 1 Come, O Spirit, dwell among us, Come with Pentecostal power; Give the church a stronger vision, Help us face each crucial hour. Built upon a firm foundation, Jesus Christ, the Cornerstone, Still the church is called to mission That God's love shall be made known. 2 We would raise our alleluias For the grace of yester-years; For tomorrow's unknown pathway, Hear, O Lord, our humble prayers. In the church's pilgrim journey You have led us all the way, Still in presence move before us, Fire by night and cloud by day. 3 Come, O Spirit, dwell among us; Give us words of fire and flame. Help our feeble lips to praise You, Glorify Your holy name. Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, Three in one: what mystery! We would sing our loud hosannas Now and through eternity.

As stars adorn the night-veiled sky

Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr. (b. 1944) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 2:9 Lyrics: 1 As stars adorn the night-veiled sky, arrayed like jewels rare and bright, so shine God's saints in every age to give the world new hop, new light. 2 The light saints bear is not their own but shines through them as gift and sign: to show how God can use and bless frail human means for ends divine. Through saints we glimpse the light of Christ, the Morning Star that crowns the night, whose rising heralds God's new day, the promised dawn of life and light. 4 That light is ours to claim and share, not merely praise or gaze upon: for all who are baptized become light-bearers through the Risen One. 5 The saints inspire and challenge us our holy calling to embrace: to bear Christ's light in our own day, to be the vessels of God's grace.

They Did Not Build in Vain

Author: Alan Luff (1928-) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 2:1-10 Lyrics: 1 They did not build in vain who founded here a church as witness to God's love amid a world of pain, for still, to those who wish to see, this place proclaims God's mystery. 2 They built upon the rock that is the risen Lord, the one foundation laid which stands each earthly shock; that, Spirit filled, we here might raise, as living temples, prayer and praise. 3 Those who have loved this place, a cloud of witnesses, surround and urge us on as we now run our race, and so we lay aside each sin in our desire to strive and win. 4 Though the horizon's bend conceals the way ahead, the footprints on the road show Christ waits at the end; in him alone our faith shall stand who waits for us at God's right hand. 5 In every place our world is storm and tempest tossed; the flames of fear and hate are evil's flags unfurled; yet still the Spirit's wind and fire pour gifts for service in this hour. 6 Here is our meeting place, where doubt finds grounds of faith; where hurt finds healing love, our penitence your grace; where bridging time to eternity is God the holy Trinity.
