Dear God, Embracing Humankind
Author: John Greenleaf Whittier, 1807-1892 Hymnal: Community of Christ Sings #194 (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Dear God, embracing humankind,
forgive our foolish ways;
re-clothe us in our rightful mind,
in purer lives your service find,
in deeper rev'rence praise.
2 In simple trust like theirs who heard,
beside the Syrian sea,
the gracious calling of your Word,
let us, like them, by Spirit stirred,
rise up and foll'wers be.
3 O Sabbath rest by Galilee!
O calm of hills above!
There Jesus met you prayerfully:
the silence of eternity,
interpreted by love.
4 Drop your still dews of quietness,
till all our strivings cease;
take from our souls the strain and stress,
and let our ordered lives confess
the beauty of your peace.
5 Breathe through the pulses of desire
your coolness and your balm;
let sense be numb, let flesh retire;
speak through the earthquake, wind, and fire,
O still, all voice of calm. Amen. Topics: Call/Calling; Calm; Commitment; Confession; Contemplation; Discipleship; Forgiveness; God Eternal; Humanity; Meditation; Inner Peace; Renewal; Repentance; Silence; Trust Scripture: Matthew 11:28-30 Languages: English Tune Title: REST

The Blood of Christ, Thy Spotless Lamb
Author: William Pond Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #382 Meter: 8.6.8.8.6 Lyrics: 1. The blood of Christ, Thy spotless Lamb,
O God, is all my plea;
Naught else could for my sin atone;
I have no merit of my own,
Which I can bring to Thee.
2. No sacrifice save His who bore,
My load upon the tree,
No other plea which lips could frame,
No other blood, no other name,
Accepted is by Thee.
3. Since Christ has entered by His blood,
The holiest on high;
By that same hallowed blood stained track,
Thou welcomest the wanderer back,
And biddest me draw nigh.
4. Oh, wondrous cross! Oh precious blood!
Oh death by which I live!
The sinless One, for me made sin,
Doth now His wondrous heart within,
Eternal refuge give.
5. By that blest cross, that cleansing blood,
I know His power to save;
The merits of His work confess,
I stand in Him completely blest,
A conqueror o’er the grave. Languages: English Tune Title: REST (Maker)
