O God of love, whose heart is ever yearning
Author: Randall T. Pittman, 1882-1972 Hymnal: Together in Song #614 (1999) Meter: 11.10.11.10.11.10 Scripture: Luke 10:25-37 Lyrics: 1 O God of love, whose heart is ever yearning
that fixed on you our wayward thoughts may be,
now grant us grace to live as in your presence,
and help us all our erring ways to see.
May love subdue the ill in every nation,
and all to you as subjects bow the knee.
2 O Father God, moved ever by compassion
for children crushed by sorrows heavy load
be swift to aid the downcast and the cheerless,
lift up the fallen on life's thorny road.
Give calm and strength to overcome with patience,
and safely bring them to your blest abode.
3 O God of peace, whose Son with our sins laden
died to secure from bondage our release,
help us to banish hate between the nations,
to live as neighbours, and make wars to cease.
Bring in the reign of friendship universal,
and in your mercy grant to us your peace. Topics: Compassion; God's Love to Us; Liberation; National Life; Nurturing God's People; Peace of the World; Reconciliation; Refugee/Outcast; Service; Unity of Humanity Languages: English Tune Title: FINLANDIA

A Man Lay Beaten, Left for Dead
Author: Andrew Pratt Hymnal: New Hymns of Hope #5 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Scripture: Luke 10:25-37 Lyrics: 1 A man lay beaten, left for dead,
his shattered, broken frame
spoke of the kicks that brought him down,
the glows that bruise and maim.
The ones who might have offered help
could give a reason why
they left him lying in the road,
they left him there to die.
2 They spoke of fear, they passed him by,
they left him in his pain;
too busy or too self-absorbed
to turn and look again.
The ones who could have helped walked on,
they passed and soon forgot,
but one who knew the cost of love
knelt down and shared his lot.
3 When people challenge or deny
our rights and break us down,
when others leave us desolate
and friends just laugh or frown;
the foreigners that we reject,
the ones we would despise,
can bring the grace of God to bear,
bring love into our lives.
4 And when we see another's need
and feel another's loss,
God gives us courage and the strength,
the memory of your cross;
God give compassion, selfless care,
and strip away our pride,
then give us each the grace to love
the ones we might deride. Topics: Compassion; Courage Languages: English Tune Title: BUTCHER HILL

When Jesus Was A Refugee
Author: Mary Nelson Keithahn Hymnal: The Song Lingers On #9 (2003) Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Scripture: Luke 10:29-30 Lyrics: When Jesus was a refugeefrom Herod’s cruel tyranny,an exile in a foreign place,a child in need of saving grace,we wonder who it was God ledto shelter him and give him bread.We wonder too, had we been there,would we have been as quick to share?When Jesus left his parents’ home,without a place to call his own,he walked with strangers on the streetand lived with those he chanced to meet--a fisherman in Galilee,and newfound friends in Bethany.Would we have welcomed him that way,and given him a place to stay?When Jesus died upon a crossalone, with few to mourn his loss,a friend came forth to offer roomfor him within a garden tomb.They gently took his body there,anointing him with tender care.Would we have heeded God’s requestand helped to lay our Lord to rest?Now risen, Christ still makes his homewith everyone who walks alone,and, with the people on the street,still waits in line for bread to eat.The time is now. We must decide.Will we pass by the other side,or will we follow Love’s commandand reach out with a helping hand? Topics: Chirstian Life Neighbors; Peace and Justice Tune Title: NEIGHBORS

Who Is My Neighbor?
Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Hymnal: Songs of Grace #19 (2009) Meter: 14.14.4.7.8 Scripture: Luke 10:25-37 First Line: "Who is my neighbor?" a lawyer asked Jesus, to test him Lyrics: “Who is my neighbor?” a lawyer asked Jesus, to test him.
So Jesus told him a story to answer his question:
Lonely the way…
Lonely the traveler one day…
Robbers attacked him and left him.
First down the road came a priest who just chose to ignore him.
Next came a Levite who wouldn’t do anything for him.
Then one despised,
Hated in everyone’s eyes,
Knelt down to heal and restore him.
Tending the wounds of the man, the Samaritan labored.
He was the one with compassion, the one in God’s favor.
Not by a creed
But by responding to need,
He proved to be the good neighbor.

Lord, May We See by Faith and Grace
Author: Mary Nelson Keithahn Hymnal: Faith That Lets Us Sing #56 (2017) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Luke 10:36-37 Lyrics: 1 Lord, may we see by faith and grace
your countenance in each sad face
of those who stand and wait outside,
encircled by your arms spread wide.
2 They cling to hope in their despair,
and long for life more just and fair,
a home that’s safe and bread to eat,
warm clothes to wear, and water sweet;
3 And here, within this sacred space,
a table where they have a place,
a font of blessing, friends who care
with helpful hands and heart-felt prayer.
4 Reveal yourself to them, we pray,
in what we do and what we say,
that as we share your love and grace,
we may reflect your holy face.

Feeling forsaken.

Hurricane crashing, We prayed for your mercy!
Comfort your people! Hold them close, now giving
Hope for their living.
Give to your children Food to end their hunger,
Clean water’s blessing, News of those they long for!
And by your Spirit, Use our gifts and labors
To help our neighbors. Topics: Lament; Mission; Nation/National Holidays Languages: English Tune Title: HERZLIEBSTER JESU
