Brethren, We Have Met to Worship

Author: George Askins Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 271 hymnals Topics: Worship; liturgical Opening Hymns Lyrics: 1 Brethren, we have met to worship And adore the Lord our God; Will you pray with all your power, While we try to preach the Word? All is vain unless the Spirit Of the Holy One comes down; Brethren, pray, and holy manna Will be showered all around. 2 Brethren, see poor sinners round you Slumb'ring on the brink of woe; Death is coming, hell is moving, Can you bear to let them go? See our fathers and our mothers, And our children sinking down; Brethren, pray and holy manna Will be showered all around. 3 Sisters, will you join and help us? Moses' sister aided him; Will you help the trembling mourners Who are struggling hard with sin? Tell them all about the Savior, Tell them that He will be found; Sisters, pray, and holy manna Will be showered all around. 4 Let us love our God supremely, Let us love each other, too; Let us love and pray for sinners, Till our God makes all things new. Then He'll call us home to heaven, At His table we'll sit down; Christ will gird Himself, and serve us With sweet manna all around. Baptist Hymnal, 1991

The Ninety and Nine

Author: Elizabeth Clephane Appears in 403 hymnals Topics: Ordinary Time Week 19 First Line: There were ninety and nine that safely lay Lyrics: 1. There were ninety and nine that safely lay In the shelter of the fold But one was out on the hills away, Far off from the gates of gold— Away on the mountains wild and bare, Away from the tender Shepherd's care. 2. Lord, thou hast here thy ninety and nine. Are they not enough for thee? But the Shepherd made answer: ’Tis of mine Has wandered away from me. And although the road be rough and steep, I go to the desert to find my sheep. 3. But none of the ransomed ever knew How deep were the waters crossed, Nor how dark was the night the Lord pass’d Ere he found his sheep that was lost. Out in the desert he heard its cry— Sick and helpless and ready to die. 4. “Lord, what are these blood drops all the way That mark out the mountain’s track?” “They were shed for the one who’d gone astray Ere the Shepherd could bring him back. “Lord, why are these hands so rent and torn?” “They’re pierced tonight by many a thorn.” 5. But all thru’ the mountains, thunder-riv’n, And up from the rocky steep, There rose such a cry to the gate of Heav’n, “Rejoice, I have found my sheep!” And the angels echoed around the throne, “Rejoice, for the Lord brings back his own!” Scripture: Luke 15:6 Used With Tune: NINETY AND NINE
