When Our Confidence Is Shaken

Author: Fred Pratt Green Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 9 hymnals Lyrics: 1 When our confidence is shaken in beliefs we thought secure, when the spirit in its sickness seeks but cannot find a cure, God is active in the tensions of a faith not yet mature. 2 Solar systems, void of meaning, freeze the spirit into stone; always our researches lead us to the ultimate unknown. Faith must die, or come full circle to its source in God alone. 3 In the discipline of praying, when it's hardest to believe; in the drudgery of caring, when it's not enough to grieve; faith, maturing, learns acceptance of the insights we receive. 4 God is love, and thus redeems us in the Christ we crucify; this is God's eternal answer to the world's eternal why. May we in this faith maturing be content to live and die! Topics: Sanctifiying and Perfecting Grace Prayer, Trust, Hope; Faith; Rédemption Used With Tune: GRAFTON

Here proclaim the glorious mystery

Author: Alan Gaunt (b. 1935); St Thomas Aquinas (c. 1225-1274) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Here proclaim the glorious mystery of the body and the blood; formed within the womb, made human, he the earth's transcendent Lord; offered for the world's redemption, promise of eternal good. 2 On the night of that last supper, there reclining with his friends, met to celebrate Passover, eating as the law demands: he, as food for his disciples, gives himself from his own hands. 3 Word made flesh, by word is making simple bread his flesh, and we here discern Christ's blood, though senses nothing more than wine can see: faith alone, true hearts sustaining, can perceive the mystery. 4 Therefore we, with deepest reverence, celebrate this sacrament; finding all the ancient scriptures sealed in his new covenant; what the senses fail to fathom, faith receives as nourishment. 5 Praise and worship to the Father, power and blessing to the Son, honour to the Holy Spirit, glory to the Three in One; let the Church proclaim for ever what eternal Love has done.
