Fountain of All Revelation
Author: Deam Ferris, 1912-1993 Hymnal: Community of Christ Sings #67 (2013) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Continuing Revelation Lyrics: 1 Fountain of all revelation,
grant us thy life-giving power;
without thee no sure salvation
will deliver us this hour.
May no veil of our tradition
mask the light that comes from thee!
Let not pride or low ambition
waste the strength that set us free.
2 God, our rock of revelation,
we would build our lives on thee,
for without thy sure foundation
none can find stability.
We will order not thy wisdom
to some cherished form or mold,
but will search for truths now hidden
as we live by those we hold.
Scripture: 1 Corinthians 2:9-13 Languages: English Tune Title: LESLIE

your chosen servants in this hour
with prayer we now uphold.

3 Then as this priesthood they receive
by laying on of hands,
let us their ministry uphold,
obeying your commands. Scripture: Ephesians 4:11-13 Languages: English Tune Title: MANOAH

We Limit Not the Truth of God
Author: George Rawson, 1807-1889; Rosemary Fishburn, 1928-2002; F. Augé-Daullé, 1875-1972 Hymnal: Community of Christ Sings #69 (2013) Topics: Continuing Revelation Lyrics: English -
1 We limit not the truth of God
to our poor reach of mind
by notions of our day and sect,
crude, partial, and confined.
No, let a new and better hope
within our hearts be stirred–
the Lord hath yet more light and truth
to break forth from his word.
2 Who dares to bind to their dull sense
the oracles of heav'n
for all the nations, tongues, and climes,
and all the ages given?
That universe, how much unknown!
that ocean unexplored!
The Lord hath yet more light and truth
to break forth from his word.
3 O Father, Son, and Spirit, send
us increase from above;
enlarge, expand all Christian souls
to comprehend thy love;
and make us all go on to know,
with nobler pow'rs conferred,
he Lord hath yet more light and truth
to break forth from his word.

1 No limitemos la verdad
del omnisciente Dios
con nuestra humana comprensión
e ingenio más precoz
Hay esperanza para mi
y toda humanidad;
Jehová palabras tiene aún
de luz y de verdad.
2 ¿Quién es capaz de comprender
la mente celestial?
El universo enigma es,
su obra inmortal.
Su creación la prueba es
de su divinidad.
Jehová palabras tiene aún
de luz y verdad.
3 Oh, Padre, Hijo, Espíritu,
danos inspiración,
que pueda el hombre comprender
tu amor y compasión.
Ayúdanos a entender
tu amor y compasión.
Ayúdanos a entender
tu plan, tu voluntad.
Jehová palabras tiene aún
de luz y de verdad.

1 La vérité de notre Dieu,
pourquoi la limiter
á nos faibles conceptions,
á notre pauvreté?
Sachons mieux èmouvoir nos coerus,
avez plus de clarté:
plus de lumiére, le Seigneur
doit encore révéler.
2 Les vieux prophétes du passé
ne pouvons rejeter;
á nous, l'évangile est donné
pour mieux nous éclairer;
cherchons toujours á découvrir
les mystères sacrés!
Plus de lumière, le Seigneur
doit encore révéler.
3 Ô Père, Fils, et Saint-Esprit,
de ton divin séjour,
fais que, plus nobles, les chrétiens
comprennent ton amour,
pour en rayonner le pouvoir,
l'incessante beauté:
plus de lumière ō cher Seigneur,
dois encore révéler!

Afar in Old Judea
Author: Roy A. Cheville, 1897-1986 Hymnal: Community of Christ Sings #63 (2013) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Continuing Revelation Lyrics: 1 Afar in old Judea,
above the Jordan stream,
a heav'nly light descended
on a baptismal scene.
Then came the confirmation
of Jesus, from above,
the sacramental signet;
the Spirit as a dove.
2 In ancient Zarahemla,
above the temple towers,
appeared the Christ of Judah
to crown the watchful hours.
A voice, serene yet piercing
beyond our words to tell,
proclaimed him as the Savior
whom prophets did foretell.
3 Then in a time of searching,
a youth who sought God's way
saw in Palmyra's woodland
a light beyond his day,
and when the vision opened
to him whose sight was dim,
he heard the Father saying,
"This is my Son, hear him!"
4 Today the heav'ns are open
to souls prepared to hear
the wondrous revelation
of Christ, who's ever near.
The Savior of the ages
still lives with us today;
he seeks to help us know him
and leads us in his way.

undefeated, alive.
Christ waits.
To the worship of force
and the praise of revenge
Christ Jesus teaches peace.

reconciling, renamed,
Christ sings.

and community praise
Christ Jesus makes us one.

and the word that forgives,
Christ comes.
At the end of the day,
at the ultimate end,
Christ Jesus lives and leads.
God be praised!
