Incarnate God, Immortal Love

Author: Alfred Tennyson Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 143 hymnals Topics: Jesus Christ Divinity; Jesus Christ Love of Lyrics: 1 Incarnate God, immortal Love, whom we, that have not seen your face, by faith, and faith alone, embrace, Believing where we cannot prove; 2 You will not leave us in the dust; you gave us life, we know not why. We trust we were not made to die, for you have made us, you are just. 3 In you meet human and divine, the highest, holiest union known. We falsely call our powers our own until our wills with yours combine. 4 Our little systems have their day; they have their day and cease to be; They are but fleeting certainty, and you, O Christ, are more than they. 5 We have but faith; we cannot know, for knowledge is of things proved true; And yet we trust it comes from you, a sign of promise; let it grow. 6 Let knowledge grow from more to more, but more of reverence in us dwell; That mind and soul, according well, may make one music as before. Scripture: 2 Corinthians 5:7 Used With Tune: ROCKINGHAM

God is here! as we your people meet

Author: Fred Pratt Green, 1903- Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 48 hymnals Topics: Jesus Christ Servant 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 Sovereign God 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: Matthew 10:25 Used With Tune: BLAENWERN
