Now join we, to praise the creator
Author: Fred Kaan, b. 1929 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #471 (2000) Meter: 9.8.9.8 Topics: Harvest Festival Languages: English Tune Title: CONWAY
Now join we, to praise the creator
Faith of our fathers, taught of old
Author: T. A. Lacey, 1853-1931 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #479 (1986) Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7 D Topics: Dedication Festival Lyrics: 1 Faith of our fathers, taught of old
By faithful shepherds of the fold.
The hallowing of our nation;
Thou wast through many a wealthy year,
Through many a darkened day of fear
The rock of our salvation.
Arise, arise, good Christian men,
Your glorious standard raise again,
The Cross of Christ who calls you;
Who bids you live and bids you die
For his great cause, and stands on high
To witness what befalls you.
2 *Our fathers heard the trumpet call
Through lowly cot and kingly hall
From oversea resounding:
They bowed their stubborn wills to learn
The truths that live, the thoughts that burn,
With new resolve abounding.
*Arise, arise, good Christian men,
Your glorious standard raise again,
The Cross of Christ who guides you;
Whose arm is bared to join the fray,
Who marshals you in stern array.
Fearless, whate'er betides you.
3 Our fathers held the faith received,
By Saints declared, by Saints believed.
By Saints in death defended;
Through pain of doubt and bitterness,
Through pain of treason and distress,
They for the right contended.
Arise, arise, good Christian men,
Your glorious standard raise again,
The Cross of Christ who bought you;
Who leads you forth in this new age
With long-enduring hearts to wage
The warfare he has taught you.
4 *Though frequent be the loud alarms,
Though still we march by ambushed arms
Of death and hell surrounded,
With Christ for chief we fear no foe,
Nor force nor craft can overthrow
The Church that he has founded.
*Arise, arise, good Christian men,
Your glorious standard raise again,
The Cross where with he signed you;
The King himself shall lead you on,
Shall watch you till the strife be done.
Then near his throne shall find you.

Faith of our fathers, taught of old
Great is the Lord our God
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #483 (1870) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Reformation Festival Lyrics: 1 Great is the Lord our God,
And let His praise be great;
He makes the church His own abode,
His most delightful seat.
2 In Zion God is known,
A refuge in distress:
How bright has His salvation shone
Through all her palaces!
3 When kings against her join'd,
And saw the Lord was there,
In wild confusion of the mind,
They fled with hasty fear.
4 Oft have our fathers told,
Our eyes have often seen,
How well our God secures the fold
Where His own sheep have been.
5 In ev'ry new distress
We’ll to His house repair;
We’ll think upon His wondrous grace,
And seek deliverance there. Languages: English
Great is the Lord our God
Zion stands with hills surrounded
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #484 (1870) Topics: Reformation Festival Lyrics: 1 Zion stands by hills surrounded--
Zion, kept by power divine;
All her foes shall be confounded,
Though the world in arms combine:
Happy Zion,
What a favored lot is thine!
2 In the furnace God may prove thee,
Thence to bring thee forth more bright,
But can never cease to love thee;
Thou art precious in His sight:
God is with thee—
God, thine everlasting light. Languages: English
Zion stands with hills surrounded
The Church's one foundation
Author: Samuel Stone, 1839-1900 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #484 (1986) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Topics: Dedication Festival Lyrics: 1 The Church's one foundation
Is Jesus Christ, her Lord;
She is his new creation
By water and the word:
From heaven he came and sought her
To be his holy Bride,
With his own blood he bought her,
And for her life he died.
2 Elect from every nation,
Yet one o'er all the earth,
Her charter of salvation
One Lord, one faith, one birth;
One holy name she blesses,
Partakes one holy food,
And to one hope she presses
With every grace endued.
3 *Though with a scornful wonder
Men see her sore opprest,
By schisms rent asunder,
By heresies distrest,
Yet saints their watch are keeping,
Their cry goes up, 'How long?'
And soon the night of weeping
Shall be the morn of song.
4 'Mid toil, and tribulation,
And tumult of her war,
She waits the consummation
Of peace for evermore;
Till with the vision glorious
Her longing eyes are blest,
And the great Church victorious
Shall be the Church at rest.
5 Yet she on earth hath union
With God the Three in One,
And mystic sweet communion
With those whose rest is won:
O happy ones and holy!
Lord, give us grace that we
Like them, the meek and lowly,
On high may dwell with thee. Languages: English Tune Title: SOMERSTOWN
The Church's one foundation
Thy hand, O God, has guided
Author: Edward Plumptre, 1821-91 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #485 (1986) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Topics: Dedication Festival Lyrics: 1 Thy hand, O God, has guided
Thy flock, from age to age;
The wondrous tale is written,
Full clear, on every page;
Our fathers owned thy goodness,
And we their deeds record;
And both of this bear witness,
One Church, one Faith, one Lord.
2 Thy heralds brought glad tidings
To greatest, as to least;
They bade men rise, and hasten
To share the great King's feast;
And this was all their teaching,
In every deed and word,
To all alike proclaiming
One Church, one Faith, one Lord.
3 Through many a day of darkness,
Through many a scene of strife,
The faithful few fought bravely
To guard the nation's life.
Their gospel of redemption,
Sin pardoned, man restored,
Was all in this enfolded,
One Church, one Faith, one Lord.
4 And we, shall we be faithless?
Shall hearts fail, hands hang down?
Shall we evade the conflict,
And cast away our crown?
Not so: in God's deep counsels
Some better thing is stored;
We will maintain, unflinching,
One church, one Faith, one Lord.
5 Thy mercy will not fail us,
Nor leave thy work undone;
With thy right hand to help us,
The victory shall be won;
And then, by men and angels,
Thy name shall be adored,
And this shall be their anthem,
One Church, one Faith, one Lord. Languages: English Tune Title: THORNBURY

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #519 (1899) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Reformation Festival Lyrics: 1 God, my supporter and my hope,
My help for ever near,
Thine arm of mercy holds me up,
And saves me from despair.
2 Thy counsels, Lord, shall guide my feet,
Through this dark wilderness;
Thy hand conduct me near Thy seat,
To dwell before Thy face.
3 Were I in heaven without my God,
'Twould be no joy to me,
And while this earth is my abode,
I long for none but Thee.
4 What if the springs of life were broke,
And flesh and heart should faint?
God is my soul's eternal rock,
The strength of every saint.
Amen.
