Begotten again unto a lively Hope
Author: Watts Hymnal: Psalms, Hymns and Spiritual Songs #CCLXXV (1792) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Romans 8:24-25 First Line: Bless'd be the everlasting God Lyrics: 1 Bless'd be the everlasting God,
The Father of our Lord:
Be his abounding mercy prais'd,
His majesty ador'd.
2 When from the dead he rais'd his Son,
And call'd him to the sky,
He gave our souls a lively hope
That they should never die.
3 What tho' our inbred sins require
Our flesh to see the dust,
Yet as the Lord our Saviour rose,
So all his foll'wers must.
4 There's an inheritance divine
Reserv'd against that day;
'Tis uncorrupted, undefil'd,
And cannot waste away.
5 Saints by the pow'r of God are kept
'Till the salvation come:
We walk by faith, as strangers here,
'Till Christ shall call us home. Topics: The Hope, that maketh not Ashamed: a Hope full of Immortality Languages: English
Begotten again unto a lively Hope
Redemption by Christ alone
Author: Steele Hymnal: Psalms, Hymns and Spiritual Songs #CCLVII (1792) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Romans 8:22-23 First Line: Enslav'd by sin and bound in chains Lyrics: 1 Enslav'd by sin and bound in chains,
Beneath its dreadful tyrant sway,
And doom'd to everlasting pains
We wretched, guilty captives lay.
2 Nor gold nor gems could buy our peace;
Nor all the world's collected store
Suffice to purchase our release;
A thousand worlds were all too poor.
3 Jesus the Lord, the mighty God,
An all sufficient ransom paid;
Invalu'd price! His precious blood
For vile rebellious traitors shed.
4 Jesus the sacrifice became,
To rescue guilty souls from hell;
The spotless, bleeding, dying Lamb
Beneath avenging justice fell.
5 Amazing goodness! love divine!
O may our grateful hearts adore
The matchless grace, nor yield to sin,
Nor wear its cruel fetters more!
6 Dear Saviour, let thy love pursue,
The glorious work it has begun,
Each secret lurking foe subdue,
And let our hearts be thine alone. Topics: The Wonders of Redemption, celebrated in Songs of Praise Languages: English
Redemption by Christ alone
Christ, ever Liveth to make Intercession
Author: Steele Hymnal: Psalms, Hymns and Spiritual Songs #CLXXXVI (1792) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Romans 8:27 First Line: He lives, the great Redeemer lives Lyrics: 1 He lives, the great Redeemer lives,
(What joy the blest assurance gives!)
And now before his Father God,
Pleads the full merits of his blood.
2 Repeated crimes awake our fears,
And justice arm'd with frowns appears;
But in the Saviour's lovely face
Sweet mercy smiles, and all is peace.
3 Hence then, ye black despairing thoughts,
Above our fears, above our faults,
His powerful intercessions rise,
And guilt recedes, and terror dies.
4 In every dark distressful hour,
When sin and Satan join their pow'r;
Let this dear hope repel the dart,
That Jesus bears us on his heart.
5 Great Advocate, Almighty Friend—
On him our humble hopes depend:
Our cause can never, never fail,
For Jesus pleads, and must prevail. Topics: The Intercession of the great High Priest; Merciful and Faithful Languages: English
Christ, ever Liveth to make Intercession
Conviction of sin by the law
Hymnal: Hymns and Spiritual Songs, in Three Books #I.CXV (1793) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Romans 8:24 First Line: Lord, how secure my conscience was Lyrics: 1 Lord, how secure my conscience was,
And felt no inward dread!
I was alive without the law,
And thought my sins were dead.
2 My hopes of heav'n were firm and bright;
But since the precept came
With a convincing pow'r and light,
I find how vile I am.
3 My guilt appear'd but small before,
Till terribly I saw
How perfect, holy, just, and pure,
Was thy eternal law.
4 Then felt my soul the heavy load,
My sins reviv'd again;
I had provok'd a dreadful God,
And all my hopes were slain.
5 I'm like a helpless captive sold
Under the pow'r of sin;
I cannot do the good I would,
Nor keep my conscience clean.
6 My God, I cry with ev'ry breath,
For some kind pow'r to save,
To break the yoke of sin and death,
And thus redeem the slave. Languages: English

The christian suff'rings here below
Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #CV (1816) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Romans 8:18-23 Lyrics: 1 The christian suff'rings here below,
Do not deserve to be compar'd!
Unto the joys God will bestow,
To those who trust unto his word.
2 On this sure promise they may build!
They never need to doubt or fear--
Such glories are in them reveal'd,
Which will repay their suff'rings here.
3 Happy will be the time indeed,
For which the whole creation wait;
When ev'ry creature shall be freed
From their oppress'd and mournful state.
4 In Adam's fall the whole was made,
Subject to vanity and sin--
the curse on all the earth was laid,
And all that is contain'd therein.
5 All creatures may be said to groan,
And travel in distress and pain;
All living creatures, Sun and Moon,
They feel the curse of guilt and stain.
6 But when the blessed sons of God
In all their glory come to view;
When heav'n and earth shall be renew'd,
All creatures are redeemed too.

Creator God, You Made the Earth
Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Hymnal: Songs of Grace #4a (2009) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Scripture: Romans 8:18-23 Lyrics: Creator God, you made the earth,
A gift beyond comparing!

You placed it in our caring.

Your pattern for creation.
You give us times to heal, to bless,
To join in celebration.
You give us Christ, who reconciled
The things of earth and heaven.
In him, you call each one your child!
What wondrous love you've given!
Because we've turned away from you,
This world still needs your healing.
Creation longs to be made new
Through Christ, your love revealing.

Sun of Righteousness, arise!
Triumph o'er the shades of night:
Dayspring from on high, be near;
Daystar, in my heart appear.

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.

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: Morning; Jesus Christ, Light; Light Languages: English Tune Title: RATISBON

with wearied hearts, O Lord,
let prayers be now uplifted
for peace to be restored.
May healing and repentance
in every land be known,
as sword is turned to plowshare
and seeds of trust are sown.

the orphan in distress,
instill in us a longing
that words cannot express.
Yet, as the Spirit's presence
within each heart is stirred,
we find new strength and courage
in God's unfailing Word.
3 The prophet voices call us
to seek that promised day
when hatred and oppression
at last are swept away.
No darkness will surround us;
in light we dwell secure.
God's purpose is accomplished
when peace and love endure. Topics: Commemoration of 9/11; Courage; Justice and Peace; Peace; Peace on Earth; Promise and Hope Languages: English Tune Title: AURELIA

All Nature's Works His Praise Declare
Author: Henry Ware, Jr. Hymnal: The Hymnbook #23 (1955) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Scripture: Romans 8:19-22 Lyrics: 1 All nature's works His praise declare,
To whom they all belong;
There is a voice in every star,
In every breeze a song.
Sweet music fills the world abroad
With strains of love and power;
The stormy sea sings praise to God,
The thunder and the shower.
2 To God the tribes of ocean cry,
And birds upon the wing;
To God the powers that dwell on high
Their tuneful tribute bring.
Like them, let man the throne surround,
With them loud chorus raise,
While instruments of loftier sound
Assist his feeble praise.
3 Great God, to Thee we consecrate
Our voices and our skill;
We bid the pealing organ wait
To speak alone Thy will.
Lord, while the music round us floats
May earth-born passions die;
O grant its rich and swelling notes
May lift our souls on high!
Amen. Topics: Worship Adoration and Praise; Adoration and Praise; Dedication Services Of a Church; God Nature, in; Nature Tune Title: BETHLEHEM

Lord, Bring the Day to Pass
Author: Ian Fraser Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #24 (1985) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Scripture: Romans 8:22 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 its lost unity.
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 Give 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
which makes life rich and draws death's sting.
4 Creation groans, travails;
futile its present plight,
bound till the hour it hails
the newfound heirs of light
who enter on their true estate.
Come, Lord! new heav'ns and earth create! Topics: In The Beginning The Earth is the Lord's Languages: English Tune Title: CAMANO

When within the vail we meet
Thee upon the mercy-seat.
2 While thy glorious name is sung,
Tune our lips--unloose our tongue;
Then our joyful souls shall bless
Thee, the Lord our Righteousness.
3 While to thee our prayers ascend,
Let thine ear in love attend;
Hear us, for thy Spirit pleads--
Hear, for Jesus intercedes.

While we tremble at thy law,

Every doubt and fear remove.
5 From thy house when we return,
