May the mind of Christ my Saviour
Author: Katie Barclay Wilkinson (1859-1928) Meter: 8.7.8.5 Appears in 67 hymnals Topics: Commitment; Courage; Dévotion; Discipleship; Proper 20 Year A; Purity Of Heart; Victory; Christian Initiation Lyrics: 1 May the mind of Christ my Saviour
live in me from day to day,
by his love and power controlling
all I do or say.
2 May the word of God dwell richly
in my heart from hour to hour,
so that all may see I triumph
only through his power.
3 May the peace of God my Father
rule my life in everything,
that I may be calm to comfort
sick and sorrowing.
4 May the love of Jesus fill me,
as the waters fill the sea;
him exalting, self abasing —
this is victory.
5 May I run the race before me,
strong and brave to face the foe,
looking only unto Jesus
as I onward go. Scripture: 2 Corinthians 1:3-7 Used With Tune: GRIFFIN'S BROOK

Brightest and Best of the Stars
Author: Reginald Heber, 1783-1826 Meter: 11.10.11.10 Appears in 921 hymnals Topics: Christian year--Epiphany First Line: Brightest and best of the stars of the morning Lyrics: 1 Brightest and best of the stars of the morning,
dawn on our darkness and lend us your aid.
Star of the East, the horizon adorning,
guide where our infant Redeemer is laid.
2 Cold on his cradle the dew-drops are shining;
low lies his head with the beasts of the stall;
angels adore him in slumber reclining,
Maker and Monarch and Savior of all.
3 Shall we not yield him, in costly devotion,
fragrance of Edom and off'rings divine,
gems of the mountain and pearls of the ocean,
myrrh from the forest or gold from the mine?
4 Vainly we offer each ample oblation,
vainly with gifts would his favor secure;
richer by far is the heart's adoration,
dearer to God are the prayers of the poor.
5 Brightest and best of the stars of the morning,
dawn on our darkness and lend us your aid.
Star of the East, the horizon adorning,
guide where our infant Redeemer is laid.
Scripture: Isaiah 60:6 Used With Tune: MORNING STAR
Brightest and Best of the Stars
Lead on, O King Eternal

the day of march has come;
henceforth in fields of conquest
your tents will be our home.
Through days of preparation
your grace has made us strong;
and now, O King eternal,
we lift our battle song.
2 Lead on, O King eternal,
till sin's fierce war shall cease,
and holiness shall whisper
the sweet amen of peace.
For not with swords' loud clashing
or roll of stirring drums
with deeds of love and mercy
the heavenly kingdom comes.
3 Lead on, O King eternal;
we follow, not with fears,
for gladness breaks like morning
where'er your face appears.
Your cross is lifted o'er us,
we journey in its light;
the crown awaits the conquest;
lead on, O God of might.
Psalter Hymnal, (Gray)

The power of death defiest;

Who now for ever livest,
And life abundant givest.
3 O free the world from blindness,
And fill the world with kindness,
Give sinners resurrection,
Bring striving to perfection;
4 In sickness give us healing,
In doubt thy clear revealing,
That praise to thee be given
In earth as in thy heaven. Used With Tune: NUN LASST UNS GOTT

My song is love unknown
Author: Samuel Crossman (c. 1624-1683) Meter: 6.6.12.8.8 Appears in 129 hymnals Topics: Christian Year Holy Week Lyrics: 1 My song is love unknown,
my Savior’s love to me,
love to the loveless shown that they might lovely be.
Oh, who am I, that for my sake
my Lord should take frail flesh, and die?
2 He came from his blest throne
salvation to bestow,
but people scorned, and none the longed-for Christ would know.
But O my Friend, my Friend indeed,
who at my need his life did spend.
3 Sometimes they strew his way,
and his strong praises sing,
resounding all the day hosannas to their King.
Then 'Crucify!' is all their breath,
and for his death they thirst and cry.
4 Why, what hath my Lord done?
What makes this rage and spite?
He made the lame to run, he gave the blind their sight.
Sweet injuries! Yet they at these
themselves displease, and 'gainst him rise.
5 They rise, and needs will have
my dear Lord made away;
a murderer they save, the Prince of Life they slay.
Yet cheerful he to suffering goes,
that he his foes from thence might free.
6 In life, no house, no home
my Lord on earth might have;
in death, no friendly tomb but what a stranger gave.
What may I say? Heaven was his home:
but mine the tomb wherein he lay.
7 Here might I stay and sing,
no story so divine;
never was love, dear King, never was grief like thine!
This is my Friend, in whose sweet praise
I all my days could gladly spend. Scripture: Isaiah 53:12 Used With Tune: LOVE UNKNOWN
My song is love unknown
O Christ, Whose Love Has Sought Us Out
Author: John Edgar Park Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 6 hymnals Topics: Christian Year Lent First Line: O Christ, whose love hast sought us out Lyrics: 1 O Christ, whose love has sought us out
Alone and lost in desert ways;
We gather round your cross again
In wonder and united praise.
2 Your life is still the miracle,
Our way of living far above,
Be yond the reaches of our minds:
We cannot understand; we love.
3 Ancestral gifts within our hands,
The cherished treasures from the past,
We lay before your feet, O Lord:
Cleanse, use them, make them yours at last.
4 So may we all be one in you,
Whose revelations never cease,
Whose love and truth are ever new,
And in whose service is our peace.
Amen. Scripture: Romans 8:37-39 Used With Tune: DAS NEUGEBORNE KINDELEIN
