Go in Grace and Make Disciples
God of Grace and God of Glory
Author: Harry Emerson Fosdick Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 155 hymnals Scripture: Acts 2:17-18 Lyrics: 1 God of grace and God of glory,
On your people pour your power;
Crown the ancient church's story;
Bring her bud to glorious flower.
Grant us wisdom,
Grant us courage,
For the facing of this hour,
For the facing of this hour.
2 Lo! the hosts of evil round us
Scorn the Christ, assail his ways!
From the fears that long have bound us
Free our hearts to faith and praise.
Grant us wisdom,
Grant us courage,
For the living of these days,
For the living of these days.
3 Cure your children's warring madness,
Bend our pride to your control;
Shame our wanton, selfish gladness,
Rich in things and poor in soul.
Grant us wisdom,
Grant us courage,
Lest we miss the Kingdom's goal,
Lest we miss the Kingdom's goal.
4 Save us from weak resignation
To the evils we deplore;
Let the search for your salvation
Be our glory evermore.
Grant us wisdom,
Grant us courage,
Serving God whom we adore,
Serving God whom we adore.

Gracious Spirit, Holy Ghost
Author: Christopher Wordsworth, 1807-1885 Meter: 7.7.7.5 Appears in 205 hymnals Scripture: Acts 2:1-4 Lyrics: 1 Gracious Spirit, Holy Ghost,
taught by you we covet most
of your gifts at Pentecost,
holy, heavenly love.
2 Faith that mountains could remove,
tongues of earth or heaven above,
knowledge, all things, empty prove
without heavenly love.
3 Love is kind, and suffers long;
love is meek, and thinks no wrong;
love, much more than death, is strong;
therefore, give us love.
4 Prophecy will fade away,
melting in the light of day;
love will ever with us stay;
therefore, give us love.
5 Faith and hope and love we see
joining hand in hand agree,
but the greatest of the three,
and the best, is love. Topics: Canticles and Scripture Paraphrases; Holy Spirit; One Life in Christ Love; Pentecost Used With Tune: CAPETOWN

great winds thy clarion, lightnings thy sword:
show forth thy pity on high where thou reignest:

meekness and mercy, and slighted thy word;
bid not thy wrath in its terrors awaken;
give to us peace in our time, O Lord.
3 God, the All-righteous One! we have defied thee;
yet to eternity standeth thy word;
falsehood and wrong shall not tarry beside thee;
give to us peace in our time, O Lord.

earth shall to freedom and truth be restored;
through the thick darkness thy Kingdom is hastening;
thou wilt give peace in thy time, O Lord.

praise him who saved them from peril and sword,
singing in chorus, from ocean to ocean,
peace to the nations, and praise to the Lord. Topics: The Church Celebrates National Life; Our Response to God in intercession and petition; God in judgement and justice; Kingdom of God; Nation and Society; Peace; Remembrance Sunday; Word of God Used With Tune: RUSSIA

God's Holy Spirit Came
Author: Mary Jackson Cathey, b. 1926; Michael Denham, b. 1955 Meter: 6.6.8.4 D Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Acts 2:1-11 Lyrics: 1 God's Holy Spirit came with rushing wind and fire,
Christ's presence here to comfort, bless, and to inspire.
The Spirit thus began God's holy work on earth
at Pentecost, a gift that gave the Church its birth.
2 God sent the Spirit forth, fulfilling prophets' word,
to those who followed Jesus and who called him Lord.
And as disciples met near temple courts for prayer
the Spirit blew and rested on those gathered there.
3 God's Spirit filled each one, as Jesus had foretold.
In many tongues they spoke God's Word, renewed and bold.
"Repent and be baptized," preached Peter in that hour,
and thousands came believing by the Spirit's pow'r.
4 God's Church alive today continues to proclaim
salvation by the Spirit's pow'r in Jesus' name.
Let all believers now their tongues and lives employ.
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, our highest joy!

Choose and cherish all things good,
And whatever I can be
Give to Him who gave me Thee!
