The Church of Christ in Every Age
Author: Fred Pratt Green Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 30 hymnals Scripture: Mark 10:43-45 Lyrics: 1 The church of Christ in every age,
beset by change but Spirit-led,
must claim and test its heritage
and keep on rising from the dead.
2 Across the world, across the street,
the victims of injustice cry
for shelter and for bread to eat,
and never live before they die.
3 Then let the servant church arise,
a caring church that longs to be
a partner in Christ's sacrifice,
and clothed in Christ's humanity.
4 For Christ alone, whose blood was shed,
can cure the fever in our blood,
and teach us how to share our bread
and feed the starving multitude.
5 We have no mission but to serve
in full obedience to our Lord:
to care for all, without reserve,
and spread Christ's liberating word.

The Son of God Goes Forth to War
Author: Reginald Heber Appears in 838 hymnals Scripture: Mark 10:38 Lyrics: 1 The Son of God goes forth to war,
A kingly crown to gain;
His blood-red banner streams afar:
Who follows in His train?
Who best can drink his cup of woe,
Triumphant over pain,
Who patient bears His cross below,
He follows in His train.
2 The martyr first, whose eagle eye
Could pierce beyond the grave,
Who saw his Master in the sky,
And called on Him to save.
Like Him, with pardon on his tongue
In midst of mortal pain,
He prayed for them that did the wrong:
Who follows in His train?
3 A glorious band, the chosen few
On whom the Spirit came,
Twelve valiant saints, their hope they knew,
And mocked the cross and flame:
They met the tyrant's brandished steel,
The lion's gory mane;
They bowed their necks the death to feel:
Who follows in their turn?
4 A noble army, men and boys,
The matron and the maid,
Around the Saviour's throne rejoice,
In robes of light arrayed.
They climbed the steep ascent of heav'n
Through peril, toil, and pain;
O God, to us may grace be giv'n
To follow in their train!
Amen. Topics: Warfare, Christian; Warfare, Christian Used With Tune: [The Son of God goes forth to war]

There is a green hill far away
Author: Cecil Frances Alexander (1818-1895) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 695 hymnals Scripture: Mark 10:38 Lyrics: 1 There is a green hill far away,
outside a city wall,
where the dear Lord was crucified,
who died to save us all.
2 We may not know, we cannot tell
what pains he had to bear;
but we believe it was for us
he hung and suffered there.
3 He died that we might be forgiven,
he died to make us good,
that we might go at last to heaven,
saved by his precious blood.
4 There was no other good enough
to pay the price of sin;
he only could unlock the gate
of heaven, and let us in.
5 Oh, dearly, dearly has he loved,
and we must love him too,
and trust in his redeeming blood,
and try his works to do. Topics: Life in Christ Christ Incarnate - Passion and Death; Christian Year Good Friday Used With Tune: HORSLEY

O Master, Let Me Walk with Thee

By some clear, winning word of love;
Teach me the wayward feet to stay,
And guide them in the homeward way.

In closer, dearer company,
In work that keeps faith sweet and strong,
In trust that triumphs over wrong;
4 In hope that sends a shining ray
Far down the future's broadening way;
In peace that only Thou canst give,
With Thee, O Master, let me live.

Father, whose everlasting love
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 27 hymnals Scripture: Mark 10:45 Lyrics: 1 Father, whose everlasting love
thy only Son for sinners gave,
whose grace to all did freely move,
and sent him down the world to save;
2 Help us thy mercy to extol,
immense, unfathomed, unconfined;
to praise the Lamb who died for all,
the general Saviour of mankind.
3 Thy undistinguishing regard
was cast on Adam’s fallen race;
for all thou hast in Christ prepared
sufficient, sovereign, saving grace.
4 The world he suffered to redeem;
for all he hath th'atonement made;
for those that will not come to him
the ransom of his life was paid.
5 Arise, O God, maintain thy cause,
the fullness of the nations call;
lift up the standard of thy cross
and all shall own thou diedst for all. Topics: Passiontide and Holy Week; Palm Sunday Year B Used With Tune: ETON

And confidently waiting, come what may,
We know that God is with us night and morning
And never fails to greet us each new day.
2 Yet is this heart by its old foe tormented,
Still evil days bring burdens hard to bear;
O give our frightened souls the sure salvation
For which, O Lord, You taught us to prepare.
3 And when this cup You give is filled to brimming
With bitter suff'ring, hard to understand,
We take it thankfully and without trembling,
Out of so good and so beloved a hand.
4 Yet when again in this same world You give us
The joy we had, the brightness of Your sun,
We shall remember all the days we lived through,
And our whole life shall then be Yours alone.
5 By gracious powers so faithfully protected,
so quietly, so wonderfully near,
I'll live each day in hope, with you beside me,
and go with you through ev'ry coming year. Topics: Christian Hope; Forgiveness, Healing Used With Tune: BERLIN

What hast thou given for Me?
I gave, I gave My life for thee,
What hast thou given for Me?

My glory-circled throne,
I left for earthly night,
For wand'rings sad and lone;
I left, I left it all for thee,
Hast thou left aught for Me?
I left, I left it all for thee,
Hast thou left aught for Me?
3 I suffered much for thee,
More than thy tongue can tell,
Of bitterest agony,
To rescue thee from hell;
I've borne, I've borne it all for thee,
What hast thou borne for Me?
I've borne, I've borne it all for thee,
What hast thou borne for Me?
4 And I have brought to thee,
Down from My home above,
Salvation full and free,
My pardon and My love;
I bring, I bring rich gifts to thee,
What hast thou brought to Me?
I bring, I bring rich gifts to thee,
What hast thou brought to Me?
