Lord, you need no house
As we break the bread
Author: Fred Kaan (b. 1929) Hymnal: New Church Praise #5 (1975) Meter: 5.6.6.4 Lyrics: 1 Awake from sleep, the night is spent!
The morning star moves up the sky:
the hosts of heaven, with sweet consent,
proclaim salvation's time is high.
Come, praise the long-implored,
our Saviour, Christ the Lord!
2 While man, the rather sin to choose,
prepares the purple, plants the thorn,
the Word of God our flesh endues
that we, by will of God reborn,
the sons of God may be
to all eternity.
3 Let regal power and humble beast
and shepherd, serving both, attend;
since all, from greatest unto least,
are proffered bliss which shall not end,
where spreads his banquet-board
our Saviour, Christ the Lord.
4 In Bethlehem, the House of Bread,
a richer harvest now is sown;
for none at Jesus' table fed
shall ever thirst or hunger own,
but shall from foes be free
to all eternity.
5 Greet the fulfilment of your dreams,
sad earth, by Adam's plague oppressed!
May he whose lowliness redeems
both north and south, both east and west,
now be by all adored,
our Saviour, Christ the Lord. Topics: Communion Languages: English Tune Title: PLATTS LANE
As we break the bread
As we break the bread
Author: Fred Kaan (b. 1929) Hymnal: Hymns for Celebration #18 (1974) Meter: 5.6.6.4 Lyrics: 1 As we break the bread
and taste the life of wine,
we bring to mind our Lord,
man of all time.
2 Grain is sown to die;
it rises from the dead,
becomes through human toil
our common bread.
3 Pass from hand to hand
the living love of Christ!
Machine and man provide
bread for this feast.
4 Jesus binds in one
our daily life and work;
he is of all mankind
symbol and mark.
5 Having shared the bread
that died to rise again,
we rise to serve the world,
scattered as grain. Topics: Holy Communion At the Communion Languages: English Tune Title: MASSON

History
The SmallChurchMusic site was launched in 2006, growing out of the requests from those struggling
to provide suitable music for their services and meetings. Rev. Clyde McLennan was ordained in mid
1960’s and was a pastor in many small Australian country areas, and therefore was acutely aware of
this music problem. Having also been trained as a Pipe Organist, recordings on site (which are a subset
of the smallchurchmusic.com site) are all actually played by Clyde, and also include piano and piano
with organ versions.
About the Recordings All recordings are in MP3 format.
Churches all around the world use the recordings, with downloads averaging over 60,000 per
month.
The recordings normally have an introduction, several verses and a slowdown on the last verse.
Users are encouraged to use software: Audacity (http://www.audacityteam.org) or Song Surgeon (http://songsurgeon.com) to adjust the MP3 number of verses, tempo and pitch to suit their local needs.
Mobile App
We have partnered with the developer of the popular NetTracks mobile app to offer the Small Church Music collection as a convenient mobile app. Experience the beloved Small Church Music collection through this iOS app featuring nearly 10,000 high-quality hymn recordings that can be organized into custom setlists and downloaded for offline use—ideal for worship services without musicians, congregational practice, and personal devotion. The app requires a small fee to cover maintenance costs. Please note: While Hymnary.org hosts this music collection, technical support for the app is provided exclusively by the app developer, not by Hymnary.org staff.
LicensingCopyright notice: Rev. Clyde McLennan, performer in this collection, has assigned his performer rights in this collection to Hymnary.org. Non-commercial use of these recordings is permitted. For permission to use them for any other purposes, please contact manager@hymnary.org.
