The God of Abraham Praise
Author: Thomas Olivers Meter: 6.6.8.4 D Appears in 455 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The God of Abraham praise,
who reigns enthroned above,
Ancient of everlasting days,
and God of love.
Jehovah, great I AM,
by earth and heaven confessed:
we bow and bless the sacred name
forever blest.
2 He by himself has sworn,
we on his oath depend,
we shall, on eagles' wings upborne,
to heaven ascend;
we shall behold his face,
we shall his power adore,
and sing the wonders of his grace
forevermore.
3 The God who reigns on high
the great archangels sing,
and “Holy, holy, holy!” cry,
“Almighty King!
Who was and is the same,
and evermore shall be:
eternal Father, great I AM,
we worship thee.”
4 The whole triumphant host
give thanks to God on high;
“Hail, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost!”
they ever cry.
Hail, Abraham’s God, and mine!
With heaven our songs we raise;
all might and majesty are thine,
and endless praise.

Praise to the Living God
Author: Daniel Ben Judah, 14th cent. Meter: 6.6.8.4 D Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Praise to the living God! Lyrics: 1 Praise to the living God!
All praised be The Name,
which was, and is, and is to be,
for aye the same.
The one eternal God
ere aught that now appears:
the first, the last, beyond all thought
or timeless years.
2 Unformed all lovely forms
declare God's loveliness;
no holiness on earth can e'er
The Name express
whose love enfolds us all;
whose laud the earth displays.
Yea, everywhere, above, below,
is perfect praise.
3 The spirit floweth free,
high surging where it will;
in prophet's word did speak of old,
and speaketh still.
The Torah rests secure,
and changeless it shall stand,
deep writ upon the human heart,
on sea, on land.
4 Eternal life hath God
implanted in the soul;
such love shall be our strength and stay
while ages roll.
Praise to the living God!
All praised be The Name
which was, and is, and is to be,
for aye the same. Topics: Jewish and Christian Teachings The Jewish Spirit; Celebration and Praise; God, Goddess, and Spirit; Rosh Hashanah; Yom Kippur Used With Tune: LEONI

Shine Thou upon Us, Lord
Author: John Ellerton Meter: 6.6.8.4 D Appears in 53 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Shine thou upon us, Lord,
true light of men, today,
and through the written Word
thy very self display,
that so from hearts which burn
with gazing on thy face
thy little ones may learn
the wonders of thy grace.
2 Breathe thou upon us, Lord,
thy Spirit's living flame,
that so with one accord
our lips may tell thy name.
Give thou the hearing ear,
fix thou the wand'ring thought,
that those we teach may hear
the great things thou hast wrought.
3 Speak thou for us, O Lord,
in all we say of thee;
according to thy Word
let all our teaching be,
that so thy lambs may know
their own true Shepherd's voice,
where'er he leads them go,
and in his love rejoice.
4 Live thou within us, Lord;
thy mind and will be ours;
be thou belov'd, adored,
and served with all our pow'rs,
that so our lives may teach
thy children what thou art,
and plead, by more than speech,
for thee with ev'ry heart.

Community of Christ
Author: Shirley Erena Murray, 1931- Meter: 6.6.8.4 D Appears in 6 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Community of Christ,
who make the Cross your own,
live out your creed and risk your life
for God alone:
the God who wears your face,
to whom all worlds belong,
whose children are of every race
and every song.
2 Community of Christ,
look past the Church's door
and see the refugee, the hungry,
and the poor.
Take hands with the oppressed,
the jobless in your street,
take towel and water, that you wash
your neighbour's feet.
3 Community of Christ,
through whom the word must sound -
cry out for justice and for peace
the whole world round:
disarm the powers that war
and all that can destroy,
turn bombs to bread, and tears of anguish
into joy.
4 When menace melts away,
so shall God's will be done,
the climate of the world be peace
and Christ its Sun;
our currency be love
and kindliness our law,
our food and faith be shared as one
for evermore. Topics: Anniversary of a Church; Compassion; Consummation in Christ; Liberation; Ministry of God's People; Mission/Sending; Peace of the World; People of God; Service; Social Justice; Unity of Humanity Scripture: Matthew 8:8-17 Used With Tune: LEONI
