StF 1

  1. All people that on earth do dwell,
    sing to the Lord with cheerful voice:
    him serve with mirth, his praise forth tell;
    come ye before him and rejoice.
  1. The Lord, ye know, is God indeed;
    without our aid he did us make:
    we are his folk, he doth us feed;
    and for his sheep he doth us take.
  1. O enter then his gates with praise;
    approach with joy his courts unto;
    praise, laud, and bless his name always,
    for it is seemly so to do.
  1. For why, the Lord our God is good;
    his mercy is for ever sure;
    his truth at all times firmly stood,
    and shall from age to age endure.
  1. To Father, Son and Holy Ghost,
    the God whom heaven and earth adore,
    from earth and from the angel host
    be praise and glory evermore.

William Kethe (d. 1594)

StF 51

  1. Great is thy faithfulness, O God my Father,
    there is no shadow of turning with thee;
    thou changest not, thy compassions, they fail not;
    as thou hast been thou for ever wilt be:

Great is thy faithfulness!  Great is thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning new mercies I see;
all I have needed thy hand hath provided.
Great is thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me.

  1. Summer and winter, and springtime and harvest,
    sun, moon and stars in their courses above,
    join with all nature in manifold witness
    to thy great faithfulness, mercy and love:
  1. Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth,
    thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide;
    strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,
    blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!

StF 464

  1. God it was who said to Abraham,
    'Pack your bags and travel on.'
    God it was who said to Sarah,
    'Smile and soon you'll bear a son.'
    Travelling folk and aged mothers
    wandering when they thought they'd done —
    this is how we find God's people,
    leaving all because of One.
  1. God it was who said to Moses,
    'Save My people, part the sea.'
    God it was who said to Miriam,
    'Sing and dance to show you're free.'
    Shepherd-saints and tambourinists
    doing what God knew they could —
    this is how we find God's people,
    liberating what they should.
  1. God it was who said to Joseph,
    'Down your tools and take your wife.'
    God it was who said to Mary,
    'In your womb, I'll start My life!'
    Carpenter and country maiden
    leaving town and trade and skills —
    this is how we find God's people,
    moved by what their Maker wills.
  1. Christ it was who said, 'Zacchaeus,
    I would like to eat with you.'
    Christ it was who said to Martha,
    'Listening's what you need to do.'
    Civil servants and housekeepers
    changing places at a cost —
    this is how Christ summons people,
    calling both the loved and lost.
  1. In this crowd which spans the ages,
    with these saints whom we revere.
    God wants us to share their purpose
    starting now and starting here.
    So we celebrate His calling,
    so we raise both heart and voice,
    as we pray that through our living
    more may find they are God's choice.

StF 592

  1. Let us break bread together with the Lord;
    let us break bread together with the Lord:

When I fall on my knees,
with my face to the rising sun,
O Lord, have mercy on me.

  1. Let us drink wine together with the Lord;
    let us drink wine together with the Lord:
  1. Let us praise God together in the Lord;
    let us praise God together in the Lord:

African-American traditional song

StF 401

  1. Come, sinners, to the gospel feast,
    let every soul be Jesu’s guest;
    you need not one be left behind,
    for God has called all humankind.
  1. Sent by my Lord, on you I call,
    the invitation is to all;
    come, all the world and witness how
    all things in Christ are ready now.
  1. Come, all you souls by sin oppressed,
    you restless wanderers after rest,
    you poor, and maimed, and sick, and blind,
    in Christ a hearty welcome find.
  1. His love is mighty to compel;
    his conquering love consent to feel;
    yield to his love's resistless power,
    and fight against your God no more.
  1. See him set forth before your eyes;
    behold the bleeding sacrifice!
    His offered benefits embrace,
    and freely now be saved by grace.
  1. This is the time; no more delay!
    This is the Lord's accepted day;
    come in, this moment, at his call,
    and live for him who died for all.

StF 157

  1. God has spoken — by his prophets,
    spoken his unchanging word;
    each from age to age proclaiming
    God, the one, the righteous Lord.
    ’Mid the world's despair and turmoil
    one firm anchor holding fast:
    God eternal reigns forever,
    God the first, and God the last.
  1. God has spoken — by Christ Jesus,
    Christ, the everlasting Son,
    brightness of the Father's glory,
    with the Father ever one;
    spoken by the Word incarnate,
    God from God, ere time was born;
    Light from Light, to earth descending,
    Christ, revealing God to all.
  1. God is speaking — by the Spirit,
    speaking to our hearts again,
    in the age-long word expounding
    God's own message, now as then.
    Through the rise and fall of nations
    one sure faith is standing fast;
    God still speaks, the Word unchanging,
    God the first, and God the last.

StF 106

  1. God, whose almighty word
    chaos and darkness heard,
    and took their flight,
    hear us, we humbly pray,
    and where the gospel day
    sheds not its glorious ray,
    let there be light!
  1. Christ, you have come to bring
    on your redeeming wing
    healing and sight,
    health to the sick in mind,
    sight to the inly blind,
    O to all humankind
    let there be light!
  1. Spirit of truth and love,
    life-giving, holy Dove,
    speed forth your flight;
    move on the waters’ face,
    bearing the lamp of grace,
    and in earth's darkest place
    let there be light!
  1. Blessèd and holy Three,
    glorious Trinity,
    Wisdom, Love, Might,
    boundless as ocean's tide
    rolling in fullest pride,
    through the world far and wide
    let there be light!

John Marriott (1780–1825)

StF 663

  1. I, the Lord of sea and sky,
    I have heard my people cry.
    All who dwell in dark and sin
    my hand will save.
    I, who made the stars of night,
    I will make their darkness bright.
    Who will bear my light to them?
    Whom shall I send?

Here I am, Lord.
Is it I, Lord?
I have heard you calling in the night.
I will go, Lord,
if you lead me.
I will hold your people in my heart.

  1. I, the Lord of snow and rain,
    I have borne my people’s pain;
    I have wept for love of them.
    They turn away.
    I will break their hearts of stone,
    give them hearts for love alone.
    I will speak my word to them.
    Whom shall I send?
  1. I, the Lord of wind and flame,
    I will tend the poor and lame.
    I will set a feast for them.
    My hand will save.
    Finest bread I will provide
    till their hearts are satisfied.
    I will give my life to them.
    Whom shall I send?

StF 338

  1. There is a Redeemer,
    Jesus, God's own Son,
    precious Lamb of God, Messiah,
    Holy One.

Thank you, O my Father,
for giving us your Son,
and leaving your Spirit
till the work on earth is done.

  1. Jesus my Redeemer,
    name above all names,
    precious Lamb of God, Messiah,
    O for sinners slain.
  1. When I stand in glory
    I will see his face,
    and there I'll serve my King for ever
    in that holy place.

  1. Be still,
    for the presence of the Lord,
    the Holy One, is here;
    come bow before him now
    with reverence and fear:
    in him no sin is found —
    we stand on holy ground.
    Be still,
    for the presence of the Lord,
    the Holy One, is here.
  1. Be still,
    for the glory of the Lord
    is shining all around;
    he burns with holy fire,
    with splendour he is crowned:
    how awesome is the sight —
    our radiant King of light!
    Be still,
    for the glory of the Lord
    is shining all around.
  1. Be still,
    for the power of the Lord
    is moving in this place;
    he comes to cleanse and heal,
    to minister his grace:
    no work too hard for him —
    in faith receive from him.
    Be still,
    for the power of the Lord
    is moving in this place.

StF 370

  1. Breathe on me, Breath of God;
    fill me with life anew,
    that I may love what thou dost love,
    and do what thou wouldst do.
  1. Breathe on me, Breath of God,
    until my heart is pure,
    until with thee I will one will,
    to do and to endure.
  1. Breathe on me, Breath of God,
    till I am wholly thine,
    until this earthly part of me
    glows with thy fire divine.
  1. Breathe on me, Breath of God;
    so shall I never die,
    but live with thee the perfect life
    of thine eternity.

Edwin Hatch (1835–1889)

StF 317

  1. At the name of Jesus
    every knee shall bow,
    every tongue confess him
    King of Glory now.
    'Tis the Father's pleasure
    we should call him Lord,
    who from the beginning
    was the mighty Word.
  1. Humbled for a season,
    to receive a name
    from the lips of sinners
    unto whom he came,
    faithfully he bore it
    spotless to the last,
    brought it back victorious
    when from death he passed:
  1. Bore it up triumphant
    with its human light,
    through all ranks of creatures
    to the central height,
    to the throne of Godhead,
    to the Father's breast;
    filled it with the glory
    of that perfect rest.
  1. In your hearts enthrone him;
    there let him subdue
    all that is not holy,
    all that is not true;
    crown him as your captain
    in temptation's hour:
    let his will enfold you
    in its light and power.
  1. For this same Lord Jesus
    shall return again,
    with his Father's glory,
    with his angel train;
    all the wreaths of empire
    meet upon his brow,
    and our hearts confess him
    King of Glory now.

Caroline Maria Noel (1817–1877)

StF 59

  1. Lord, the light of your love is shining,
    in the midst of the darkness, shining:
    Jesus, Light of the world, shine upon us;
    set us free by the truth you now bring us —
    shine on me, shine on me.

Shine, Jesus, shine,
fill this land with the Father's glory;
blaze, Spirit, blaze,
set our hearts on fire.
Flow, river, flow,
flood the nations with grace and mercy;
send forth your word,
Lord, and let there be light!

  1. Lord, I come to your awesome presence,
    from the shadows into your radiance;
    by your blood I may enter your brightness:
    search me, try me, consume all my darkness —
    shine on me, shine on me.
  1. As we gaze on your kingly brightness
    so our faces display your likeness,
    ever changing from glory to glory:
    mirrored here, may our lives tell your story —
    shine on me, shine on me.

StF 155

  1. Come, Holy Ghost, our hearts inspire,
    let us thine influence prove;
    source of the old prophetic fire,
    fountain of life and love.
  1. Come, Holy Ghost (for moved by thee
    the prophets wrote and spoke),
    unlock the truth, thyself the key,
    unseal the sacred book.
  1. Expand thy wings, celestial Dove,
    brood o'er our nature's night;
    on our disordered spirits move,
    and let there now be light.
  1. God through himself we then shall know,
    if thou within us shine;
    and sound, with all thy saints below,
    the depths of love divine.
