Author: Shirley Erena Murray (b. 1931) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #697 (2005) Meter: 12.11.12.11 Lyrics: 1 Let's praise the Creator who gave us each other
in friendship and kinship to celebrate life;
let's sing our delight in this man and this woman,
the promise of joy as a husband and wife.
2 The love that we wish them, the love that we pray for
is stronger than storms and more gentle than breath,
endures every trouble, is selfless and faithful,
more precious than life and more lasting than death.
3 In vows that are honoured, in kissing and blessing
may happiness shine like the gold of a ring;
in passionate joy and compassionate caring
may theirs be the gifts that true loving can bring. Topics: The Church Celebrates Family, Friendship, and Marriage Scripture: Ephesians 5:21-33 Languages: English Tune Title: THE ROAD AND THE MILES TO DUNDEE

The Lord is my shepherd, in nocht am I wantin'
Hymnal: TTT-Himnaro Cigneta #608a Lyrics: 1. The Lord is my Shepherd, in nocht am I wantin';
In the haugh's green girse does He mak me lie doon
While mony puir straiglers are bleatin' and pantin'
By saft-flowin' burnies He leads me at noon.
2. When aince I had strayed far awa in the bracken,
And daidled till gloamin' cam ower a' the hills,
Nae dribble o' water my sair drooth to slacken,
And dark grow'd the nicht wi' its haars and its chills.
3. Awa frae the fauld, strayin' fit-sair and weary,
I thocht I had naethin' tae dae but tae dee.
He socht me and fand me in mountain hechts dreary,
He gangs by fell paths which He kens best for me.
4. And noo, for His name's sake, I'm dune wi' a' fearin'
Though cloods may aft gaither and soughin' win's blaw.
"Hoo this?" or "Hoo that?" -- oh, prevent me frae spearin'
His will is aye best, and I daurna say "Na".
5. The valley o' death winna fleg me to thread it,
Through awfu' the darkness, I weel can foresee.
Wi' His rod and His staff He wull help me to tread it,
Then wull its shadows, sae gruesome, a' flee.
6. Forfochen in presence o' foes that surround me,
My Shepherd a table wi' denties has spread.
The Thyme and the Myrtle blaw fragrant aroond me,
He brims a fu' cup and poors oil on my head.
7. Surely guidness an' mercy, despite a' my roamin'
Wull gang wi' me doon tae the brink o' the river.
Ayont it nae mair o' the eerie an' gloamin'
I wull bide in the Hame o' my Faither for ever. Tune Title: DUNDEE ROAD
The Lord is my shepherd, in nocht am I wantin'
