Author: Ruth Eliiott Hymnal: The Worshipbook #378 (1972) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Service for the Lord's Day After Creed Lyrics: 1 Glorious is your name, Most Holy,
God and Father of us all;

Strive to answer every call.
You with life's great good have blest us,
Cared for us from earliest years;
Unto you our thanks we render;
Your deep love overcomes all fears.
2 For our world of need and anguish
We would lift to you our prayer.
Faithful stewards of your bounty,
May we with our brothers share.
In the name of Christ our Savior,
Who redeems and sets us free,
Gifts we bring of heart and treasure,
That our lives may worthier be.
3 In the midst of time we journey;
From your hand comes each new day:
We would use it in your service,
Humbly, wisely, while we may.
So to you, Lord and Creator,
Praise and honor we accord!
Yours the earth and yours the heavens,
Through all time the Eternal Word.

Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Worshipbook #379 (1972) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Service for the Lord's Day After Creed Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of you are spoken,
Zion, city of our God;
He whose word cannot be broken
Formed you for his own abode.

What can shake your sure repose?
With salvation's walls surrounded,
You may smile at all your foes.
2 See, the streams of living waters,
Springing from eternal Love,
Well supply your sons and daughters,
And all fears of want remove:
Who can faint, while such a river
Flows their thirst to satisfy?
Grace, which, like the Lord the giver,
Never fails; he does supply.
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: Isaiah 46:13 Tune Title: AUSTRIAN HYMN

Serve with awe in heavenly regions.

Sing the hosts of heaven,
Praise to God be ever given.

To us here:
Hear, O Christ, the praises
That your Church now raises.

While on earth we tarry;
Make us your blest sanctuary.

Unto us draw nearer,
And reveal yourself still clearer.
Where we are,
Near or far,
Let us see your power,
Every day and hour.

God Is Working His Purpose Out
Author: Arthur Campbell Ainger Hymnal: The Worshipbook #389 (1972) Meter: Irregular Topics: Service for the Lord's Day After Creed Lyrics: 1 God is working his purpose out
As year succeeds to year:
God is working his purpose out,
And the time is drawing near;
Nearer and nearer draws the time,
The time that shall surely be,
When the earth shall be filled with the glory of God
As the waters cover the sea.
2 What can we do to work God's work,
To prosper and increase
The brotherhood of all mankind,
The reign of the Prince of Peace?
What can we do to hasten the time,
The time that shall surely be,
When the earth shall be filled with the glory of God
As the waters cover the sea.
3 March we forth in the strength of God,
With the banner of Christ unfurled,
That the light of the glorious gospel of truth
May shine throughout the world:
Fight we the fight with sorrow and sin
To set their captives free,
That the earth may be filled with the glory of God
As the waters cover the sea.
4 All we can do is nothing worth
Unless God blesses the deed;
Vainly we hope for the harvest-tide
Till God gives life to the seed;
Yet nearer and nearer draws the time,
The time that shall surely be,
When the earth shall be filled with the glory of God
As the waters cover the sea.
Amen. Scripture: Ephesians 1:9-11 Tune Title: PURPOSE

Stilled our rude hearts with your word of consoling;
Wrap now your peace, like a mantle, around us,
Guarding our thoughts and our passions controlling.
3 How shall we stray, with the hand to direct us,
That all the stars in their courses is guiding?
What shall we fear, with your power to protect us,
We who walk forth in your greatness confiding?
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 51:1 Tune Title: O QUANTA QUALIA

Though the eye of sinful man thy glory may not see,
Only thou art holy; there is none beside thee
Perfect in power, in love, and purity.
