God of All Time, All Seasons of Our Living

Author: Shirley Erena Murray (1931-) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 God of all time, all seasons of our living, source of our spark, protector of our flame, blazing before our birth, beyond our dying– God of all time, we come to sing your name. 2 Here in this place, where others have been building, we come to claim the legacy of faith; take, in our turn, the telling of your story; and, though we tremble, speak your hope, your truth. 3 Spirit, who draws our fragile selves together; Spirit, who turns a stranger to a friend: be at the table where we greet each other; be in the peace we pass from hand to hand. 4 Let us not die from poverty of caring; let us not starve, where love is to be shared. Come, break us open to receive your healing; your broken body be our wine and bread.

Hark what a sound, and too divine for hearing

Author: Frederic W. H. Myers, 1843-1901 Meter: 11.10.11.10 Appears in 23 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Hark what a sound, and too divine for hearing, Stirs on the earth and trembles in the air! Is it the thunder of the Lord's appearing? Is it the music of his people's prayer? 2 Surely he cometh, and a thousand voices Shout to the saints, and to the deaf are dumb; Surely he cometh, and the earth rejoices, Glad in his coming who hath sworn: I come! 3 This hath he done, and shall we not adore him? This shall he do, and can we still despair? Come, let us quickly fling ourselves before him, Cast at his feet the burden of our care. 4 Through life and death, through sorrow and through sinning, He shall suffice me, for he hath sufficed: Christ is the end, for Christ was the beginning, Christ the beginning, for the end is Christ.

O give our frightened souls the sure salvation for which, O Lord, you taught us to prepare. 3 And when this cup you give is filled to brimming with bitter suffering, hard to understand, we take it thankfully and without trembling, out of so good, and so beloved, a hand. 4 Yet when again, in this same world, you give us the joy we had, the brightness of your sun, we shall remember all the days we lived through, and our whole life shall then be yours alone.
