Father Most Holy, Merciful, and Loving
Author: Alfred E. Alston Meter: 11.11.11.5 Appears in 15 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Father most holy, merciful, and loving,
Jesus, Redeemer, ever to be worshipped,
life-giving Spirit, Comforter most gracious,
God everlasting;
2 three in a wondrous unity unbroken,
one perfect God-head, love that never faileth,
light of the angels, succor of the needy,
hope of all living;
3 all thy creation serveth its creator;
thee ev'ry creature praiseth without ceasing;
we, too, would sing the psalms of true devotion;
hear, we beseech thee.
4 Lord God almighty, unto thee be glory,
One in three Persons, over all exalted;
thine, as is meet, be honor, praise, and blessing,
now and forever.

Lord Of The Living
As the Disciples, When Thy Son Had Left Them
Author: Percy Dearmer Meter: 11.11.11.5 Appears in 8 hymnals Lyrics: 1 As the disciples, when thy Son had left them,
met in a lovefeast, joyfully conversing,
all the stored mem'ry of the Lord's last Supper
fondly rehearsing,
2 so may we here, who gather now in friendship,
seek for the spirit of those earlier churches,
welcoming him who stand and for an entrance
patiently searches.
3 As, when their converse closed, and supper ended,
taking the bread and wine, they make thanksgiving,
breaking and blessing, thus to have communion
with Christ the living,
4 so may we here, united in one Body,
make this our lovefeast and commemoration,
that in his Spirit, we may have more worthy
participation.
5 And, as they prayer and sang to thee rejoicing,
ere in the nightfall they embraced and parted,
in their hearts singing as they journeyed homeward,
brave and true-hearted,
6 so, may we here, like grain that once was scattered
over a hillside, now one bread united,
led by the Spirit, do thy work rejoicing,
lamps filled and lighted. Topics: Love Feast Scripture: Acts 2:42 Used With Tune: AD TUUM NOMEN
