Author: Josiah Conder, 1789-1855; Henry F. Lyte, 1793-1847 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 78 hymnals First Line: Lord, 'tis not that I did choose You Lyrics: 1 Lord, 'tis not that I did choose You; That, I know, could never be, For this heart would still refuse You Had Your grace not chosen me. You removed the sin that stained me, Cleansing me to be Your own; For this purpose You ordained me, That I live for you alone. 2 It was grace in Christ that called me, Taught my darkened heart and mind, Else the world had yet enthralled me, To Your heav'nly glories blind. Now I worship none above You; For Your grace alone I thirst, Knowing well that, if I love You, You, O Father, loved me first. 3 Haste then on from grace to glory, Armed by faith and winged by prayer. All but heav'n is transitory; God's own hand shall guide you there. Soon shall end this earthly story; Swift shall pass the pilgrim days, Hope soon change to heav'nly glory, Faith to sight and prayer to praise. Topics: Justification Used With Tune: WIEISSE FLAGGEN

My God Who Called Creation

Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., 1944- Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: Mighty God who called creation Lyrics: 1 Mighty God who called creation from the unformed womb of space, newborn worlds of gleaming glory, fresh with hope and ripe with grace: speak again with power and promise when the storms of fear increase; to our chaos and confusion let your light and truth bring peace. 2 As we worship, may your Spirit breathe through us the pow'r of prayer, words of life for daily living, strength to do and faith to dare. Come, enflame us, Holy Spirit, like the church at Pentecost; help us bear the light of blessing to the least, the last, the lost. 3 Rooted in the love of Jesus, nourished by his flesh and blood, may we prove a fruitful vineyard joined in mutual servanthood. Work through us, O risen Savior, to reap peace from fields of strife; bring our barren wastes to blossom; lead us out of death to life. 4 Keep us faithful, joyful, loving, filled with hope through grief and pain, knowing that the One who made us has redeemed and will sustain: Triune God, of boundless glory, yet in human form made known, raise us up to be a people called by love to be your own.
