An Endless Line of Splendor

Author: Vachel Lindsay Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1. An endless line of splendor, These troops with Heav’n for home, With creeds they go from Scotland, With incense go from Rome. These, in the name of Jesus, Against the dark gods stand, They gird the earth with valor, They heed their king’s command. 2. Onward the line advances, Shaking the hills with power, Slaying the hidden demons, The lions that devour. No bloodshed in the wrestling— But souls new born arise— The nations growing kinder, The child-hearts growing wise. 3. What is the final ending? The issue, can we know? Will Christ outlive Mohammed? Will Kali’s altar go? This is our faith tremendous— Our wild hope, who shall scorn— That in the name of Jesus The world shall be reborn!

O Lord, You Called Disciples

Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: O Lord, you called disciples, proclaiming, "Come and see!" Lyrics: O Lord, you called disciples, proclaiming, “Come and see!” And so an invitation began your ministry. Then Andrew called his brother, and Peter came to you; More men and women followed, and little children, too. You met a busy woman out in the noon-day sun. You shared God’s love, you listened; you told all she had done. She called her friends and neighbors and brought them face to face With you, the living water, the bearer of God’s grace. O Christ, your invitation has reached from year to year! Through some who heard you calling, a church was founded here. As faithful people served you a century ago,* They soon invited others; your church began to grow. God, by your Holy Spirit, now send us in your name To serve the lost and outcast, the poor for whom you came. Through gifts of hope and healing, through loving ministry, May we reach out, inviting the world to “Come and see!” *Or “as faithful people served you so many years ago,” Topics: Call/Vocation; Jesus Christ Ministry Scripture: John 1:35-41 Used With Tune: LANCASHIRE

You Call Us, Lord, to Worship

Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: You call us, Lord, to worship; the day is set aside Lyrics: You call us, Lord, to worship; the day is set aside. Your love is overflowing; the doors are opened wide. Yet as we see your goodness, we see what we have been. And so we humbly ask you, "Forgive us of our sin!" We are forgiven people; we know your love's embrace. The peace of Christ is with us; forgiveness fills this place. We hear your word in scripture, in sermon and in song. Again, again, you tell us: we're loved and we belong. We share our joys and sorrows and then we offer prayer For people who are hurting, for nations everywhere. We bring our tithes and offerings, returning what is yours, For what we keep may vanish, but what we give endures. We celebrate your love, Lord, with water, wine and bread. For at your font we're welcomed and at your feast we're fed. We pray the prayer you taught us; we sing your praise and then Through daily, faithful living, we worship you again.

We Look to You, O Jesus

Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: We look to you, O Jesus--in faith, our Pioneer-- Lyrics: We look to you, O Jesus—in faith, our Pioneer— For you have gone before us and brought your people here. You showed us all God’s kingdom, you gave us work to do; In death you went before us; for life, we turn to you. We looked to you to guide us three hundred years ago; How different was the land then, from this land that we know. With towns and country growing, your people heard your call, And so they built new churches, proclaiming you to all. Through times of strife and anguish, through times of joy and grace, Through conflicts with our culture, you’ve brought us to this place; And still your world is changing, and still we seek to be A church reformed, reforming in faithful ministry. Perfecter of the faith, Lord, we look to you each day; We work for peace and justice, we worship, learn and pray— And witnesses surround us, a host of saints above, As we continue sharing the joy of your great love.
