My Song Is Love Unknown

Author: Samuel Crossman Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.4.4 Appears in 129 hymnals Lyrics: 1 My song is love unknown, my Savior's love to me, love to the loveless shown that they might lovely be. O who am I that for my sake my Lord should take frail flesh, and die? 2 He came from heaven’s throne salvation to bestow; the world that was his own would not its Savior know. But O my Friend, my Friend indeed, who at my need his life did spend! 3 Sometimes we strew his way, and his sweet praises sing, resounding all the day hosannas to our King. Then "Crucify!" is all our breath, and for his death we thirst and cry. 4 Unheeding, we will have our dear Lord made away, a murderer to save, the prince of life to slay. Yet steadfast he to suffering goes, that he his foes from thence might free. 5 Here might I stay and sing, no story so divine: never was love, dear King, never was grief like thine. This is my Friend, in whose sweet praise I all my days could gladly spend.

Come, My Fond Fluttering Heart

Author: Jane Taylor Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 53 hymnals First Line: Come, my fond flutt'ring heart Lyrics: 1. Come, my fond flutt'ring heart; Come, struggle to be free; You and the world must part, However hard it be. My trembling spirit owns it just But still lies cleaving to the dust. 2. O tempting sweets, forbear; O dearest idols, fall; My love you must not share; Jesus shall have it all. Though painful and acute the smart, His love can heal the bleeding heart. 3. O fair, enchanting throng! O golden dreams, adieu! Earth has prevailed too long; Too long I've cherished you; Aid me, dear Savior, set me free; My all I will resign to thee. 4. Oh, may I feel your worth And let no idol dare, No vanity of Earth With you, my Lord, compare; Now bid all earthly joys depart, And reign unrivaled in my heart.

Thou art the Christ, O Lord

Author: William Walsham How, 1823-1897 Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 21 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Thou art the Christ, O Lord, the Son of God most high: for ever be adored that name in earth and sky, in which, though mortal strength may fail, the saints of God at last prevail. 2 O surely he was blest with blessedness unpriced, who, taught of God, confessed the Godhead in the Christ; for of thy church, Lord, thou didst own thy saint a true foundation-stone. 3 Thrice fallen, thrice restored, the bitter lesson learnt, that heart for thee, O Lord, with triple ardour burnt. The cross he took he laid not down until he grasped the martyr's crown. 4 O bright triumphant faith, O courage void of fears, O love most strong in death, O penitential tears! By these, Lord, keep us lest we fall, and make us go where thou shalt call. Topics: Saints' and Other Holy Days St. Peter Scripture: Matthew 16:13-18 Used With Tune: LOVE UNKNOWN

The grace of life is theirs

Author: Frederick Pratt Green (1903-2000) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 11 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The grace of life is theirs who on this wedding day delight to make their vows and for each other pray. May they, O Lord, together prove the lasting joy of Christian love. 2 Where love is, God abides: and God shall surely bless a home where trust and care give birth to happiness. May they, O lord, together prove the lasting joy of such a love. 3 How slow to take offence love is! How quick to heal! How ready in distress to know how others feel! May they, O lord, together prove the lasting joy of such a love. 4 And when time lays its hand on all we hold most dear, and life, by life consumed, fulfils its purpose here: May they, O lord, together prove the lasting joy of such a love.

Lord, bring the day to pass

Author: Ian Masson Fraser (b. 1917) Meter: 6.6.12.8.8 Appears in 10 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord, bring the day to pass when forest, rock, and hill, the beasts, the birds, the grass, will know your finished will: when we attain our destiny and nature lives in harmony. 2 Forgive our careless use of water, ore, and soil -- the plenty we abuse supplied by others' toil: save us from making self our creed, turn us towards each other's need. 3 Help us, when we release creation's secret powers, to harness them for peace, our children's peace and ours: teach us the art of mastering in servant form, like Christ our King. 4 Creation groans, travails, futile its present plight, bound -- till the hour it hails God's children born of light: that we may gain our true estate, come, Lord, new heavens and earth create.

Now to Your Table Spread
