Now, on Land and Sea Descending
Author: Samuel Longfellow Meter: Appears in 125 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Now, on land and sea descending,
brings the night its peace profound.
Let our vesper hymn be blending
with the holy calm around.
Jubilate! Jubilate! Jubilate! Amen!
Let our vesper hymn be blending
with the holy calm around.
2 Soon as dies the sunset glory,
stars of heaven shine out above,
telling still the ancient story,
their creator's changeless love.
Jubilate! Jubilate! Jubilate! Amen!
Telling still the ancient story:
their creator's changeless love.
3 Now our wants and burdens leaving
to our God who cares for all,
cease we fearing, cease we grieving;
touched by God our burdens fall.
Jubilate! Jubilate! Jubilate! Amen!
Cease we fearing, cease we grieving;
touched by God our burdens fall.
4 As the darkness deepens o'er us,
lo! eternal stars arise;
hope and faith and love rise glorious,
shining in the Spirit's skies.
Jubilate! Jubilate! Jubilate! Amen!
Hope and faith and love rise glorious,
shining in the Spirit's skies.

Sinner, You Must Die
With a Word, You Birthed Creation
Author: Mary Louise Bringle, 1953- Meter: Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 With a word, you birthed creation,
giving shape to boundless space
casting light through velvet darkness
by the brilliance of your grace.
With a word, you formed all beings,
filling land, air, and sea;
human creatures, in your image,
by your sovereign, "Let there be."
2 With a word, you raised up prophets,
for a parched and yearning earth,
bringing hope to thirsty people
with the promise of new birth.
With a word you fired their visions
with the pow'r of your dreams;
"Let my justice roll like waters;
and my peace, like flowing streams."
3 With a Word, you came among us,
born in flesh and full of grace.
In the body of Christ Jesus,
you revealed your human face.
With his Word, you still inspire us
for the work that we do:
"Love and live for one another,
as I lived and died for you." Topics: Commission; Compassion; Feminine Images; God Creator; God Mother; God's Glory, Majesty and Power; God's Presence; Jesus Christ The Incarnation; Justice; Mission Scripture: Genesis 1:1-3 Used With Tune: VERBUM
