Christ, Whose Glory Fills the Skies
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 449 hymnals Matching Instances: 24 Lyrics: 1 Christ, whose glory fills the skies,
Christ, the true and only Light,
Sun of Righteousness, arise,
triumph o'er the shade of night;
Dayspring from on high, be near;
Daystar, in my heart appear.
2 Dark and cheerless is the morn
unaccompanied by thee;
joyless is the day's return
till thy mercy's beams I see,
till they inward light impart,
glad my eyes and warm my heart.
3 Visit, then, this soul of mine,
pierce the gloom of sin and grief;
fill me, Radiancy divine,
scatter all my unbelief;
more and more thyself display,
shining to the perfect day! Topics: Church Year Transfiguration; Jesus Christ Day Star; Jesus Christ Light; New Heaven and Earth; Praise of Christ; Elements of Worship Confession; Elements of Worship Forgiviness and Grace Scripture: Psalm 27 Used With Tune: LUX PRIMA

when we trespass on our way,
cast, O Lord, our sins behind thee
and be with us day by day.
Should we stray, O Lord, recall;
work repentance when we fall.
4 Holy Spirit, strong and mighty,
thou who makest all things new,
make thy work within us perfect
and the evil foe subdue.
Grant us weapons for the strife
and with vict'ry crown our life.

Faith Begins by Letting Go
Author: Carl P. Daw Jr, b. 1944 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 6 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 Faith begins by letting go,
giving up what had seemed sure,
taking risks and pressing on,
though the way feels less secure:
pilgrimage both right and odd,
trusting all our life to God.
2 Faith endures by holding on,
keeping memory’s roots alive
so that hope may bear its fruit;
promise fed, our souls will thrive,
not through merit we possess
but by God’s great faithfulness.
3 Faith matures by reaching out,
stretching minds, enlarging hearts,
sharing struggles, living prayer,
binding up the broken parts;
till we find the commonplace
ripe with witness to God’s grace. Topics: Discipleship; Trust in God; Unity and Fellowship Scripture: James 1:17 Used With Tune: LUX PRIMA Text Sources: Prayer text: John Calvin, Institutes of the Christian Religion, III.2.7, and James 1:17

I myself would gracious be,
and with words that help and heal,
would thy life in mine reveal,
and, with actions bold and meek,
would for Christ my Savior speak.

I myself would truthful be.
and with wisdom kind and clear,
let thy life in mine appear,
and, with actions lovingly,
mirror Christ's sincerity.
3 Silent Spirit, dwell with me:
I myself would silent be,
quiet as the growing blade,
which through earth its way has made,
silently, like morning light,
putting mists and chills to flight.
4 Mighty Spirit, dwell with me:
I myself would mighty be,
mighty so as to prevail
where unaided I would fail,
ever, by a mighty hope,
pressing on and bearing up.
5 Holy Spirit, dwell with me:
I myself would holy be;
break from sin and choose the good,
cherish what my Savior would,
and whatever I can be
give to God who gave me thee.
