The Church's One Foundation
Author: Samuel J. Stone, 1839-1900 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 866 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The Church's one foundation
Is Jesus Christ her Lord;
She is his new creation
By water and the word;
From heaven he came and sought her
To be his holy bride;
With his own blood he bought her,
And for her life he died.
2 Elect from ev'ry nation,
Yet one o'er all the earth,
Her charter of salvation,
One Lord, one faith, one birth,
One holy name she blesses,
Partakes one holy food,
And to one hope she presses,
With ev'ry grace endued.
3 'Mid toil and tribulation,
And tumult of her war,
She waits the consummation
Of peace for evermore;
Till with the vision glorious,
Her longing eyes are blest,
And the great Church victorious
Shall be the Church at rest.
4 Yet she on earth hath union
With God, the Three in One,
And mystic sweet communion
With those whose rest is won.
O happy ones and holy!
Lord, give us grace that we
Like them, the meek and lowly,
On high may dwell with thee.

I Lay My Sins on Jesus
Author: Horatius Bonar Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 560 hymnals Lyrics: 1. I lay my sins on Jesus,
The spotless Lamb of God;
He bears them all, and frees us
From the accursed load:
I bring my guilt to Jesus,
To wash my crimson stains
White in his blood most precious,
Till not a stain remains.
2. I lay my wants on Jesus;
All fulness dwells in Him;
He heals all my diseases,
He doth my soul redeem:
I lay my griefs on Jesus,
My burdens and my cares;
He from them all releases,
He all my sorrows shares.
3. I long to be like Jesus,
Strong, loving, lowly, mild;
I long to be like Jesus,
The Father's holy child:
I long to be with Jesus,
Amid the heav'nly throng,
To sing with saints His praises,
To learn the angels' song. Scripture: 1 Peter 2:24 Used With Tune: AURELIA

Help Us Accept Each Other
Author: Fred Kaan, 1929-2009 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 24 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Help us accept each other
As Christ accepted us;
Teach us as sister, brother,
Each person to embrace.
Be present, Lord, among us,
And bring us to believe:
We are ourselves accepted
And meant to love and live.
2 Teach us, O Lord, your lessons,
As in our daily life
We struggle to be human
And search for hope and faith.
Teach us to care for people,
For all, not just for some;
To love them as we find them,
Or as they may become.
3 Let your acceptance change us
So that we may be moved
In living situations
To do the truth in love;
To practice your acceptance
Until we know by heart
The table of forgiveness
And laughter's healing art.
4 Lord, for today's encounters
With all who are in need,
Who hunger for acceptance,
For justice, and for bread,
We need new eyes for seeing,
New hands for holding on:
Renew us with your Spirit;
Lord, free us, make us one! Topics: Unity; Ordinary Time, Twenty-Third Sunday A Scripture: Romans 15:7 Used With Tune: AURELIA

O God, the Rock of Ages
Author: E. H. Bickersteth Appears in 201 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O God, the Rock of Ages,
Who evermore hast been,
What time the tempest rages,
Our dwelling place serene;
Before Thy first creations,
O Lord, the same as now,
To endless generations
The Everlasting Thou!
2 Our years are like the shadows
On sunny hills that lie,
Or grasses in the meadows
That blossom but to die;
A sleep, a dream, a story
By strangers quickly told,
An unremaining glory
Of things that soon are old.
3 O Thou, who canst not slumber,
Whose light grows never pale,
Teach us aright to number
Our years before they fail;
On us Thy mercy lighten,
On us Thy goodness rest,
And let Thy Spirit brighten
The hearts Thyself hast blessed.
4 Lord, crown our faith's endeavor
With beauty and with grace,
Till, clothed in light for ever,
We see Thee face to face;
A joy no language measures,
A fountain brimming o'er,
An endless flow of pleasures,
An ocean without shore. Topics: His Majesty and Glory; God His Majesty and Glory; God Eternal Used With Tune: [O God, the Rock of Ages]

Hail to the Lord's Anointed
Author: James Montgomery Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 844 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Hail to the Lord's Anointed,
great David's greater Son!
Hail, in the time appointed,
his reign on earth begun!
He comes to break oppression,
to set the captive free,
to take away transgression,
and rule in equity.
2 He comes with comfort speedy
to those who suffer wrong;
to help the poor and needy,
and bid the weak be strong;
to give them songs for sighing,
their darkness turn to light,
whose souls, condemned and dying,
were precious in his sight.
3 He shall come down like showers
upon the fruitful earth;
and love, joy, hope, like flowers,
spring in his path to birth;
before him on the mountains
shall peace, the herald, go;
and righteousness, in fountains,
from hill to valley flow.
4 O'er ev'ry foe victorious,
he on his throne shall rest,
from age to age more glorious,
all-blessing and all-blessed;
the tide of time shall never
his covenant remove;
his name shall stand forever–
that name to us is Love.

O Father, All-Creating
Author: John Ellerton, 1826-1893 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 47 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Father, all-creating,
Whose wisdom, love, and pow'r
First bound two lives together
In Eden's primal hour,
To these who come before you,
Your earliest gifts renew:
A home by you made happy,
A love by you kept true.
2 O Savior, guest in Cana
Of old in Galilee,
May these who ask your blessing
Your loving presence see.
Their store of earthly gladness
Transform to heav'nly wine,
And teach them, in the testing,
To know your gift divine.
3 O Spirit of the Father,
Breathe on them from above,
So mighty in your pureness,
So tender in your love;
That, guarded by your presence,
From sin and strife kept free,
Their hearts may seek your guidance,
And love you faithfully.
4 Unless you build it, Father,
The house is built in vain;
Unless you bless it, Savior,
The joy will turn to pain;
But none can break the union
Of hearts in you made one;
The love your Spirit blesses
Is endless love begun. Topics: Joy; Love for Others; Love of God for Us; Rites of the Church Marriage; Unity Used With Tune: AURELIA
