as his people did in time of old. [Refrain] Scripture: Psalm 95:1-7 Used With Tune: SING HOSANNA

This is a day of new beginnings
Author: Brian Wren (b. 1936) Meter: 9.8.9.8 Appears in 23 hymnals Topics: Our Response to God in times and seasons Lyrics: 1 This is a day of new beginnings,
time to remember and move on,
time to believe what love is bringing,

love's mighty Spirit, now as then,
can make for us a world of difference
as faith and hope are born again.
3 Then let us, with the Spirit's daring,
step from the past and leave behind
our disappointment, guilt and grieving,
seeking new paths, and sure to find.
4 Christ is alive, and goes before us
to show and share what love can do.
This is a day of new beginnings --
our God is making all things new.

For my sake and the gospel's, go
Author: Edward Henry Bickersteth (1825-1906) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 36 hymnals Topics: Our Response to God in mission and service Lyrics: 1 'For my sake and the gospel's, go
and tell redemption's story';
his heralds answer, 'Be it so,
and thine, Lord, all the glory!'
They preach his birth, his life, his cross,
the love of his atonement,
for whom they count the world but loss,
his Easter, his enthronement.
2 Hark! hark! the trump of jubilee
proclaims to every nation,
from pole to pole, by land and sea,
glad tidings of salvation.
Still on and on the anthems spread
of alleluia voices;
in concert with the holy dead,
the warrior Church rejoices.
3 He comes, whose advent trumpet drowns
the last of time's evangels,
Immanuel, crowned with many crowns,
the Lord of saints and angels.
O Life, Light, Love, the great I AM,
Triune, who changest never,
the throne of God and of the Lamb
is thine, and thine for ever. Scripture: Acts 10:38-43 Used With Tune: BISHOPGARTH
For my sake and the gospel's, go
Great God, your love has called us here
Author: Brian Wren (b. 1936) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 33 hymnals Topics: Our Response to God in the worship of God's house Lyrics: 1 Great God, your love has called us here,
as we, by love, for love were made.
Your living likeness still we bear,
though marred, dishonoured, disobeyed.
We come, with all our heart and mind
your call to hear, your love to find.
2 We come with self-inflicted pains
of broken trust and chosen wrong,
half-free, half-bound by inner chains,
by social forces swept along,
by powers and systems close confined
yet seeking hope for humankind.
3 Great God, in Christ you call our name
and then receive us as your own,
not through some merit, right or claim,
but by your gracious love alone.
We strain to glimpse your mercy seat
and find you kneeling at our feet.
4 Then take the towel, and break the bread,
and humble us, and call us friends.
Suffer and serve till all are fed,
and show how grandly love intends
to work till all creation sings,
to fill all worlds, to crown all things.
5 Great God, in Christ you set us free
your life to live, your joy to share.
Give us your Spirit's liberty
to turn from guilt and dull despair
and offer all that faith can do
while love is making all things new. Scripture: 2 Corinthians 3:17 Used With Tune: MELITA
Great God, your love has called us here
