Author: Mary A. Lathbury; Alexander Groves Meter: 6.4.6.4 D Appears in 722 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 15:29-38 Lyrics: 1 Break now the bread of life, dear Lord, to me,

Break Thou the Bread of Life
My Song Is Love Unknown
Author: Samuel Crossman Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.4.4 Appears in 127 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 15:31 Lyrics: 1 My song is love unknown,
my Savior’s love to me,
love to the loveless shown
that they might lovely be.
O who am I,
that for my sake
my Lord should take
frail flesh, and die?
2 He came from his blest throne
all made strange, and none
the longed-for Christ would know.
But, O, my Friend,
my fFiend indeed,
who at my need
his life did spend!
3 Sometimes they strew his way,
and his strong praises sing,
resounding all the way
Hosannas to their King.
Then “Crucify!”
is all their breath,
and for his death
they thirst and cry.
4 Why, what hath my Lord done?
What makes this rage and spite?
He made the lame to run,
he gave the blind their sight.
Sweet injuries!
Ye they at these
themselves displease,
and 'gainst him rise.
5 They rise, and needs will have
my dear Lord made away;
a murderer they save,
the Prince of life they slay.
Yet cheerful he
to suff'ring goes,
that he his foes
from thence might free.
6 In life, no house, no home
my Lord on earth might have;
in death, no friendly tomb
but what a stranger gave.
What may I say?
Heaven was his home,
but mine the tomb
wherein he lay.
7 Here might I stay and sing,
no story so divine:
never was love, dear King,
never was grief like thine.
This is my Friend,
in whose sweet praise
I all my days
could gladly spend.

What vile affections there!

O Christ, the Healer, We Have Come
Author: Fred Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 37 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 15:28 Lyrics: 1 O Christ, the healer, we have come
to pray for health, to plead for friends.
How can we fail to be restored
when reached by love that never ends?
2 From every ailment flesh endures
our bodies clamor to be freed;
yet in our hearts we would confess
that wholeness is our deepest need.
3 In conflicts that destroy our health
we recognize the world's disease;
our common life declares our ills.
Is there no cure, O Christ, for these?
4 Grant that we all, made one in faith,
in your community may find
the wholeness that, enriching us,
shall reach the whole of humankind.

were strong to heal and save;
they triumphed over pain and death,
o'er darkness and the grave.
To you they went, the blind, the mute,
the palsied and the lame,
the leper set apart and shunned,
the sick with fevered frame.
2 And then your touch brought life and health,
gave speech and strength and sight;
and youth renewed, with health restored,
claimed you, the Lord of light.
And so, O Lord, be near to bless,
almighty now as then,
in every street, in every home,
in every troubled friend.
3 O be our mighty healer still,
O Lord of life and death;
restore and strengthen, soothe and bless
with your almighty breath.
On hands that work and eyes that see,
your healing wisdom pour,
that whole and sick and weak and strong
may praise you evermore. Topics: Healing; Epiphany (season) Used With Tune: ST. MICHAEL'S

Lord, regard my earnest cry
Pray'r will at last an answer gain
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 15:21-28 Lyrics: 1 Pray'r will at last an answer gain,
Sure none shall seek the Lord in vain!
Tho' Jesus may at first delay,
None shall be empty sent away.
2 A certain passage we do read,
Proves it to be the case indeed:
A heathen woman fill'd with grief
Did come to Jesus for relief.
3 With fervent pray'r his help she sought,
Truly at first he answer'd not;
And in his turn he signified,
That she should ever be denied.
4 He first concealed what he meant,
By saying, I am only sent,
To grant relief and help to those
Of Jacob's race, whom God hath chose.
5 But still a more distressing word
Was then express'd by Christ the Lord;
I ought not take the childrens bread
And give to dogs that they be fed.
6 Yet all this drove her not away,
But caus'd her with more warmth to pray:
Have mercy Lord, O pitty me!
My trust for help is all in thee.
7 She own'd she was not Israel's seed,
But could be call'd a dog indeed;
But that would not take childrens bread,
Though dogs should with the crumbs be fed.
8 The Saviour then was forc'd to yield,
And with those words his mind reveal'd;
O! Woman, thou must have relief,
Undoubted, great is thy belief.
9 Here may we learn, here may we know;
What faith with humble pray'r can do;
Should we who are of christian race,
Not persevere to gain such grace? Topics: The Second Sunday in Lent

With patience bore the scoffing tongue;
Though oft provoked, he ne'er reviled,
Nor did his enemies a wrong.

and from blind eyes benighted long
bright beams of morning spring?

and strong ones heal the weak who waste
their lives in sad desire?
3 O where is he that trod the sea?
'Tis only he can save;
to thousands hung'ring wearily
a wondrous meal he gave;
full soon with bread from heaven fed,
their rustic fare they take;
'twas springtide when he bless'd the bread,
and harvest when he brake.
4 O where is he that trod the sea?
My soul, the Lord is here!

Blest Redeemer, whom we love,
Fountain in life's desert dreary,
Savior from the world above:
Often have Your eyes, offended,
Gazed upon the sinner's fall;
Yet upon the cross extended,
You have borne the pain of all.

Breathing no repentant vow,
Though we see You wounded, bleeding,
See Your thorn-encircled brow?
Yet Your sinless death has brought us
Life eternal, peace, and rest;
Only what Your grace hath taught us
Calms the sinner's deep distress.

With more fervent love for You;
May our eyes be ever turning
To behold Your cross anew
Till in glory, parted never
From the blessed Savior's side,
Graven in our hearts forever,
Dwell the cross, the Crucified.

A Prophet-Woman Broke a Jar
Author: Brian Wren (1936-) Appears in 8 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 15:21-28 Lyrics: 1 A prophet-woman broke a jar,
by Love's divine appointing.
With rare perfume she filled the room,
presiding and anointing.
A prophet-woman broke a jar,
the sneers of scorn defying.
With rare perfume she filled the room,
preparing Christ for dying.
2 A faithful woman left a tomb
by Love's divine commission.
She saw, she heard, she preached the word,
arising from submission.
A faithful woman left a tomb,
with resurrection gospel.
She saw, she heard, she preached the word,
apostle to apostles.
3 Though woman-wisdom, woman-truth,
for centuries were hidden,
unsung, unwritten, and unheard,
derided and forbidden,
the Spirit's breath, the Spirit's fire,
on free and slave descending,
can tumble our dividing walls,
our shame and sadness mending.
4 The Spirit knows, the Spirit calls,
by Love's divine ordaining,
the friends we need, to serve and lead,
their powers and gifts unchaining.
The Spirit knows, the Spirit calls,
from women, men and children,
the friends we need, to serve and lead.

Blessed be Thy name
Author: James Montgomery Meter: 5.5.8.8.5.5 Appears in 5 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 15:25 Lyrics:
Blessed be Thy name,
Jesus Christ!--the same
Yesterday, to-day, for ever,
What from Thee my soul shall sever,
While I hear Thy voice,
And in Thee rejoice?
Guide me with Thine eye;
Warn to fight or fly,
When the foe, a lion raging,
Or, with serpent guile assuaging,
Comes in wrath to tear,
Or by fraud ensnare.
Hold me with Thine hand,
For by faith I stand;
On Thy strength my sole reliance,
In Thy truth my whole affiance;
Then where'er I roam,
I am travelling home.
Lord, Thy word is light;
Led by it aright,
When a pilgrim, like my Fathers,
Life's last shadow round me gathers,
May its brightening ray
Shine to perfect day.
With my latest breath,
Overcoming death,
198
From the body disencumber'd
With thy Saints in glory number'd,
Jesus, may I be
Found in peace with Thee.
Blessed be Thy name
O changeless Christ, for ever new
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, 1926- Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 5 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 15:22-29 Lyrics: 1 O changeless Christ, for ever new,
who walked our earthly ways,
still draw our hearts as once you drew
the hearts of other days.
2 As once you spoke by plain and hill
or taught by shore and sea,
so be today our teacher still,
O Christ of Galilee.
3 As wind and storm their Master heard
and his command fulfilled,
may troubled hearts receive your word,
the tempest-tossed be stilled.
4 And as of old to all who prayed
your healing hand was shown,
so be your touch upon us laid,
unseen but not unknown.
5 In broken bread, in wine outpoured,
your new and living way
proclaim to us, O risen Lord,
O Christ of this our day.
6 O changeless Christ, till life is past
your blessing still be given;
then bring us home, to taste at last
the timeless joys of heaven. Topics: Eternal Life; Eucharist; Jesus Christ Earthly life; Jesus Christ Redeemer Used With Tune: ST BOTOLPH
