Lord, You Give the Great Commission
Author: Jeffery Rowthorn Hymnal: Chalice Hymnal #459 (1995) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Refrain First Line: With the Spirit's gifts empower us Lyrics: 1 Lord, you give the great commission:
"Heal the sick and preach the word."
Lest the church neglect its mission
and the gospel go unheard,
help us witness to your purpose
with renewed integrity:
[Refrain:]
With the Spirit's gifts empower
us for the work of ministry.
2 Lord, you call us to your service:
"In my name baptize and teach."
That the world may trust your promise,
life abundant meant for each,
give us all new fervor, draw us
closer in community: [Refrain]
3 Lord, you make the common holy:
"This my body, this my blood."
Let us all, for earth's true glory,
daily lift life heavenward,
asking that the world around us
share your children's liberty: [Refrain]
4 Lord, you show us love's true measure:
"Father, what they do, forgive."
Yet we hoard as private treasure
all that you so freely give.
May your care and mercy lead us
to a just society: [Refrain]
5 Lord, you bless with words assuring:
"I am with you to the end."
Faith and hope and love restoring,
may we serve as you intend,
and, amid the cares that claim us,
hold in mind eternity: [Refrain] Topics: God's Church Mission and Witness; Justice; Ministry; Mission; Stewardship Languages: English Tune Title: ABBOT'S LEIGH
Lord, You Give the Great Commission
God Is Here!
Author: Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: The Presbyterian Hymnal #461 (1990) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D 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 Lord 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!

God Is Here!
God Is Love, Let Heav'n Adore Him
Author: Timothy Rees, 1874-1939 Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #463 (1995) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 God is love, let heaven adore him;
God is love, let earth rejoice;
let creation sing before him
and exalt him with one voice.
God who laid the earth's foundation,
God who spread the heav'ns above,
God who breathes through all creation:
God is love, eternal love.
2 God is love; and love enfolds us,
all the world in one embrace;
with unfailing grasp God holds us,
ev'ry child of ev'ry race.
And when human hearts are breaking
under sorrow's iron rod,
then we find that selfsame aching
deep within the heart of God.
3 God is love; and though with blindness
sin afflicts all human life,
God's eternal loving-kindness
guides us through our earthly strife.
Sin and death and hell shall never
o'er us final triumph gain:
God is love, so love forever
o'er the universe must reign. Topics: Father and Creator; God; God--Goodness of; God--Love of; Grief and sorrow; Sin Scripture: 1 John 4:7-21 Languages: English Tune Title: ABBOT'S LEIGH

Author: Cyril A. Alington, 1872-1955 Hymnal: The Book of Praise #470 (1997) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Ye that know the Lord is gracious,
ye for whom a corner-stone
stands, of God elect and precious,
laid that ye may build thereon,
see that on that sure foundation
you a living temple raise,
towers that may tell forth salvation,
walls that may re-echo praise.
2 Living stones, by God appointed
each to his allotted place,
royal priests, by God anointed,
will you not declare God's grace?
Now a royal generation,
tell the tidings of your birth,
tidings of a new creation
to an old and weary earth.
3 Tell the praise of God who called you
out of darkness into light,
broke the fetters that enthralled you,
gave you freedom, peace and sight.
Tell the tale of sins forgiven,
strength renewed and hope restored,
till the earth, in tune with heaven,
praise and magnify the Lord. Topics: Freedom / Liberation; Jesus Christ Cornerstone / Foundation; New Day; Ordination / Commissioning; Profession of Faith; The Church Scripture: 1 Peter 2:4-10 Languages: English Tune Title: ABBOT'S LEIGH
