How Clear Is Our Vocation, Lord
Author: Fred Pratt Green Meter: 8.6.8.8.6.6 Appears in 19 hymnals Lyrics: 1 How clear is our vocation, Lord,
When once we heed Your call:
To live according to Your word,
And daily learn, refreshed, restored,
That You are Lord of all
And will not let us fall.
2 But if, forgetful, we should find
Your yoke is hard to bear,
If worldly pressures fray the mind
And love itself cannot unwind
Its tangled skein of care:
Our inward life repair.
3 We mark Your saints, how they became
In hindrances more sure,
Whose joyful virtues put to shame
The casual way we wear Your name,
And by our faults obscure
Your power to cleanse and cure.
4 In what You give us, Lord, to do,
Together or alone,
In old routines or ventures new,
May we not cease to look to You--
The cross You hung upon--
All You endeavored done. Scripture: Isaiah 6:8 Used With Tune: REPTON

I Come with Joy
Author: Brian Wren Meter: 8.6.8.6.6 Appears in 75 hymnals First Line: I come with joy to meet my Lord Lyrics: 1 I come with joy to meet my Lord,
Forgiven, loved, and free,
In awe and wonder to recall
His life laid down for me,
His life laid down for me.
2 I come with Christians far and near
To find, as all are fed,
The new community of love
In Christ's communion bread,
In Christ's communion bread.
3 As Christ breaks bread, and bids us share,
Each proud division ends.
The love that made us, makes us one,
And strangers now are friends,
And strangers now are friends.
4 And thus with joy we meet our Lord.
His presence, always near,
Is in such friendship better known:
We see and praise Him here,
We see and praise Him here.
5 Together met, together bound
We'll go our different ways,
And as His people in the world,
We'll live and speak His praise,
We'll live and speak His praise. Used With Tune: DOVE OF PEACE

O God, Our Faithful God
Author: Johann Heermann; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 6.7.6.7.6.6.6.6 Appears in 63 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O God, our faithful God,
O fountain ever flowing,
Without whom nothing is,
All perfect gifts bestowing,
Grant us a faithful life,
And give us, Lord, within,
Commitment free from strife,
A soul unhurt by sin.
2 God, grant us strength to do
With ready heart and willing,
Whatever You command,
Our calling here fulfilling;
And do it when we ought,
With zeal and joyfulness;
And bless the work we’ve wrought,
For You must give success.
3 If dangers gather round,
Still keep us calm and fearless;
Help us to bear the cross
When life is bleek and cheerless,
To overcome our foes
With words and actions kind;
O God, Your will disclose,
Your counsel let us find.

Fill our hearts with joy and peace;

Traveling through this wilderness.

For Thy gospel’s joyful sound;
May the fruits of Thy salvation
In our hearts and lives abound.
Ever faithful, Ever faithful
To the truth may we be found.
3 So that when Thy love shall call us,
Savior, from the world away,
Let no fear of death appall us,
Glad Thy summons to obey.
May we ever, May we ever
Reign with Thee in endless day.
