Author: Christopher Idle Hymnal: Singing the New Testament #116 (2008) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Vocation, Ministry Lyrics: 1 To know God's mind and do his will
disciples sought his face;
with Judas gone, they now must fill
the twelfth and vacant place.
2 They looked for one prepared to lead
and witness by his word:
"Though Jesus died, he lives indeed,
for I have seen the Lord."
3 One who has followed in the way
since John at first baptized,
and walked with them until the day
they saw the sacending Christ.
4 Matthias then was set apart,
apostle of good news;
and God, who knows the human heart,
still calls those he will use.
5 Lord, make your battle-line complete:
make known your sovereign choice,
that we may serve with willing feet
and Christ-uplifting voice. Scripture: Acts 1:12-26 Languages: English Tune Title: DUNDEE
