we build, our shield and resting place,

our Lord, our Life, our Way, our End,
accept the praise we bring.

Author: F. W. Faber, 1814-1863 Hymnal: Common Praise #598a (2000) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Scripture: Ephesians 1:22-23 Lyrics: 1 There's a wideness in God's mercy
like the wideness of the sea;
there's a kindness in his justice
which is more than liberty.
2 There is no place where earth's sorrows
are more felt than up in heaven;
there is no place where earth's failings
have such kindly judgement given.
3 For the love of God is broader
than the measure of man's mind;
and the heart of the Eternal
is most wonderfully kind.
4 But we make his love too narrow
by false limits of our own;
and we magnify his strictness
with a zeal he will not own.
5 There is plentiful redemption
in the blood that has been shed;
there is joy for all the members
in the sorrows of the Head.
6 There is grace enough for thousands
of new worlds as great as this;
there is room for fresh creations
in that upper home of bliss.
Descant:
If our love were but more simple,
we should take him at his word;
and our lives would be all gladness

Y un sólo un fundador
La santa Iglesia tiene
En Cristo, su Señor,
Haciéndola su esposa,
Del cielo descendió,
Y por su propia sangre
Su libertad compró.
2 Aunque es de muchas razas,
Disfruta de unidad:
Sólo una fe confiesa
En santa caridad;
Es uno su bautismo,
Un pan de santidad;
Por gracia siempre espera
Una felicidad.
3 Cercada de tumultos,
De guerra y confusión,
La paz eterna espera,
Serena en su visión;
Al fin, ya victoriosa,
La iglesia terrenal
Recibe por su premio
Descanso celestial.

Celeste comunión
Con Dios y con los santos
En paz y perfección.
Jesús, cabeza nuestra,
Concédenos lugar
con los que habitan siempre
En tu celeste hogar.

O Sacred Head, Now Wounded
Author: Paul Gerhardt; Bernard of Clairvaux, (1091-1153) Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #116 (1926) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Scripture: Ephesians 1:23 Lyrics: 1 O sacred Head, now wounded,
With grief and shame weighed down,
Now scornfully surrounded,
With thorns Thine only crown!
Once reigning in the highest
In light and majesty,
Dishonored now Thou diest,
Yet here I worship Thee.
2 How art Thou pale with anguish,
With sore abuse and scorn!
How does that visage languish,
Which once was bright as morn!
What Thou, my Lord, hast suffered,
Was all for sinners' gain;
Mine, mine was the transgression,
But Thine the deadly pain.
3 Lo, here I fall, my Saviour,
'Tis I deserve Thy place:
Look on me with Thy favor,
Vouchsafe to me Thy grace.
Receive me, my Redeemer;
My Shepherd, make me Thine,
Of every good the Fountain,
Thou art the Spring of mine!
4 What language shall I borrow
To thank Thee, dearest Friend,
For this Thy dying sorrow,
Thy pity without end!
Oh, make me Thine forever,
And should I fainting be,
Lord, let me never, never
Outlive my love to Thee.
5 Forbid that I should leave Thee;
O Jesus, leave not me;
In faith may I receive Thee,
When death shall set me free.
When strength and comfort languish,
And I must hence depart,
Release me then from anguish
By thine own wounded heart.
