Jesus, My Lord, How Rich Thy Grace
Author: Philip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #270 (1985) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, my Lord, how rich thy grace;
thy bounties, how complete!
How shall I count the matchless sum,
or pay the mighty debt?
2 High on a throne of radiant light
dost thou exalted shine;
what can my poverty bestow,
when all the worlds are thine?
3 But lo, our world's forgotten poor
are partners of thy grace;
thou wilt confess their humble names
before thy Father's face.
4 In them thou may'st be clothed and fed,
and visited and cheered,
and in their accents of distress
my Savior's voice is heard.
5 Thy face with rev'rence and with love
I in thy poor would see;
O let me rather beg my bread
than hold it back from thee. Topics: Jesus Christ Grace; Needy Scripture: Matthew 25:31-46 Languages: English Tune Title: GEORGETOWN

They Cast Their Nets in Galilee
Author: William Alexander Percy Hymnal: The Hymnbook #421 (1955) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 They cast their nets in Galilee
Just off the hills of brown;
Such happy, simple fisher-folk,
Before the Lord came down.
2 Contented, peaceful fishermen,
Before they ever knew
The peace of God that filled their hearts
Brimful, and broke them too.
3 Young John who trimmed the flapping sail,
Homeless, in Patmos died.
Peter, who hauled the teeming net,
Head down was crucified.
4 The peace of God, it is no peace,
But strife closed in the sod.
Yet, brothers, pray for but one thing--
The marvelous peace of God.
Amen. Topics: Discipleship; Peace, Spiritual; Stewardship; Life in Christ Peace Scripture: Ephesians 2:14 Tune Title: GEORGETOWN
