Hymnal: VU1996 #811 (1996) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Tune Title: BISHOPTHORPE Lyrics: 1 To render thanks unto our God it is a comely thing; and to your name, O God most high, due praise aloud to sing. 2 Your loving-kindness to show forth when shines the morning light; and to declare your faithfulness with pleasure every night, 3 upon a ten-stringed instrument, upon the psaltery, and on the harp with solemn sound, and grave sweet melody. 4 For you, God, by your mighty works have made my heart so glad; and I will triumph in the works which by your hands were made. 5 Those that within the house of God are planted by your grace, they shall grow up, and flourish all within your holy place.

Bitter Was the Night

Author: Sydney Carter Hymnal: VU1996 #132 (1996) Meter: 5.8.5.6 Tune Title: BITTER WAS THE NIGHT Lyrics: 1 Bitter was the night, thought the cock would crow for ever. Bitter was the night before the break of day. 2 Saw you passing by, told them all I didn't know you. Bitter was the night before the break of day. 3 Told them all a lie, and I told it three times over. Bitter was the night before the break of day. 4 What did Judas do? Sold him for a bag of silver. Bitter was the night before the break of day. 5 What did Judas do? Hanged himself upon an alder. Bitter was the night before the break of day. 6 Bitter was the night, thought there'd never be a morning. Bitter was the night before the break of day. 7 Bitter was the night, thought the cock would crow for ever. Bitter was the night before the break of day.

God Is Here

Author: Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: VU1996 #389 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Tune Title: BLAENWERN 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 God 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!
