Take Up Your Cross
Author: Charles W. Everest, 1814-1877 Hymnal: Worship (4th ed.) #761 (2011) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: "Take up your cross" the Savior said Lyrics: 1 "Take up your cross," the Savior said,
"If you would my disciple be;
Take up your cross with willing heart,
And humbly follow after me."
2 Take up your cross; let not its weight
Fill your weak spirit with alarm;
His strength shall bear your spirit up,
And brace your heart, and nerve your arm.
3 Take up your cross, heed not the shame,
And let your foolish pride be still;
The Lord for you accepted death
Upon a cross on Calv'ry's hill.
4 Take up your cross, then, in his strength,
And calmly ev'ry danger brave:
It guides you to a better home
And leads to vict'ry o'er the grave.
5 Take up your cross and follow Christ,
Nor think till death to lay it down;
For those who humbly bear the cross
One day will wear the glorious crown. Topics: Psalms; Discipleship; Ordinary Time, Twelfth Sunday C; Ordinary Time, Thirteenth Sunday A; Ordinary Time, Twenty-Second Sunday A; Ordinary Time, Twenty-Fourth Sunday B Languages: English Tune Title: ERHALT UNS HERR

O Christ, the Healer
Author: Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: Glory to God #793 (2013) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: O Christ, the healer, we have come Lyrics: 1 O Christ, the healer, we have come
to pray for health, to plead for friends.
How can we fail to be restored
when reached by love that never ends?
2 From every ailment flesh endures
our bodies clamor to be freed;
yet in our hearts we would confess
that wholeness is our deepest need.
3 How strong, O Lord, are our desires,
how weak our knowledge of ourselves!
Release in us those healing truths
unconscious pride resists or shelves.
4 In conflicts that destroy our health
we recognize the world’s disease;
our common life declares our ills.
Is there no cure, O Christ, for these?
5 Grant that we all, made one in faith,
in your community may find
the wholeness that, enriching us,
shall reach the whole of humankind.

Lord, Keep Us Steadfast In Thy Word
Author: Catherine Winkworth; Martin Luther Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #29 (1930) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Lord, keep us steadfast in Thy Word;
Curb those who fain by craft and sword
Would wrest the kingdom from Thy Son
And set at naught all He hath done.
2 Lord Jesus Christ, Thy pow'r make known,
For Thou art Lord of lords alone;
Protect Thy Church from perils sore
That we may laud Thee evermore.
3 O Comforter, of priceless worth,
Send peace and unity on earth;
Support us in our final strife,
And lead us out of death to life. Topics: The Means of Grace The Word Languages: English Tune Title: WITTENBERG

The Law Of God Is Good And Wise
Author: M. Loy Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #33 (1930) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 The Law of God is good and wise
And sets His will before our eyes;
Shows us the way of righteousness
And dooms to death when we transgress.
2 Its light of holiness imparts
The knowledge of our sinful hearts,
That we may see our lost estate
And seek deliv'rance ere too late.
3 To those who help in Christ have found
And would in works of love abound,
It shows what deeds are His delight
And should be done as good and right.
4 When men the offered help disdain
And dead in sin and woe remain,
Its terror in their ear resounds
And keeps their wickedness in bounds.
5 The law is good, but since the fall
Its holiness condemns us all:
It dooms us for our sins to die
And has no pow'r to justify.
6 To Jesus we for refuge flee,
Who from the curse has set us free,
And humbly worship at His throne,
Saved by His grace thro' faith alone.

A Broken Heart, My God, My King
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #75 (1930) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 A broken heart, my God, my King,
Is all the sacrifice I bring;
The God of grace will ne'er despise
A broken heart for sacrifice.
2 My soul lies humbled in the dust
And owns Thy dreadful sentence just;
Look down, O Lord, with pitying eye
And save the soul condemned to die.
3 Then will I teach the world Thy ways;
Sinner shall learn Thy sov'reign grace;
I'll lead them to my Savior's blood,
And they shall praise a pard'ning God.
4 O may Thy love inspire my tongue;
Salvation shall be all my song,
And all my pow'r shall join to bless
The Lord, my Strength and Righteousness.
