HYMN #601 THY WORD IS A LAMP

Thy word is a lamp unto my feet
And a light unto my path.

When I feel afraid,
Think I’ve lost my way,
Still you’re there right beside me,
And nothing will I fear
As long as you are near.
Please be near me to the end.

Thy word is a lamp unto my feet
And a light unto my path.

Now I will not forget
Your love for me and yet
My heart forever is wandering.
Jesus, be my guide
And hold me to your side,
And I will love you to the end.

Thy word is a lamp unto my feet
And a light unto my path.

HYMN #599 BREAK THOU THE BREAD OF LIFE

Break thou the bread of life,
Dear Lord, to me,
As thou didst break the loaves beside the sea;
Beyond the sacred page I seek thee, Lord;
My spirit pants for thee, O Living Word.

Bless thou the truth, dear Lord,
To me, to me,
As thou didst bless the bread by Galilee;
Then shall all bo***ge cease, all fetters fall;
And I shall find my peace, my all in all.

HYMN #593 HERE I AM, LORD

I, the Lord of sea and sky,
I have heard my people cry,
All who dwell in dark and sin
My hand will save.

I who made the stars of night,
I will make their darkness bright.
Who will bear my light to them?
Whom shall I send?

Here I am, Lord.
Is it I, Lord?
I have heard you calling in the night.

I will go, Lord,
If you lead me.
I will hold your people in my heart.

I, the Lord of snow and rain,
I have borne my people’s pain.
I have wept for love of them.
They turn away.

I will break their hearts of stone,
Give them hearts for love alone.
I will speak my word to them.
Whom shall I send?

Here I am, Lord.
Is it I, Lord?
I have heard you calling in the night.

I will go, Lord,
If you lead me.
I will hold your people in my heart.

I, the Lord of wind and flame,
I will tend the poor and lame,
I will set a feast for them.
My hand will save.

Finest bread I will provide
Till their hearts be satisfied.
I will give my life to them.
Whom shall I send?

Here I am, Lord.
Is it I, Lord?
I have heard you calling in the night.

I will go, Lord,
If you lead me.
I will hold your people in my heart.

HYMN #2270 HE HAS MADE ME GLAD

I will enter his gates with thanksgiving in my heart,
I will enter his courts with praise.
I will say, “This is the day that the Lord has made.”
I will rejoice, for he has made me glad.

He has made me glad, he has made me glad.
I will rejoice, for he has made me glad.
He has made me glad, he has made me glad.
I will rejoice, for he has made me glad.

HYMN #591 RESCUE THE PERISHING

Rescue the perishing,
Care for the dying,
Sn**ch them in pity
From sin and the grave;
Weep o’er the erring one,
Lift up the fallen,
Tell them of Jesus,
The mighty to save.

Rescue the perishing,
Care for the dying;
Jesus is merciful,
Jesus will save.

Though they are slighting Him,
Still He is waiting,
Waiting the penitent child to receive;
Plead with them earnestly,
Plead with them gently;
He will forgive if they only believe.

Rescue the perishing,
Care for the dying;
Jesus is merciful,
Jesus will save.

Down in the human heart,
Crushed by the tempter,
Feelings lie buried
That grace can restore;
Touched by a loving heart,
Wakened by kindness,
Chords that were broken
Will vibrate once more.

Rescue the perishing,
Care for the dying;
Jesus is merciful,
Jesus will save.

Rescue the perishing,
Duty demands it;
Strength for thy labor
The Lord will provide;
Back to the narrow way
Patiently win them;
Tell the poor wanderer
A Savior has died.

Rescue the perishing,
Care for the dying;
Jesus is merciful,
Jesus will save.

HYMN #583 YOU ARE THE SEED

You are the seed
That will grow a new sprout;
You’re a star that will shine
In the night;
You are the yeast
And a small grain of salt,
A beacon to glow in the dark.

You are the dawn
That will bring a new day;
You’re the wheat
That will bear golden grain;
You are a sting
And soft, gentle touch,
My witnesses where’er you go.

Go, my friends,
Go to the world,
Proclaiming love to all,
Messengers
Of my forgiving peace,
Eternal love

Be, my friends,
A loyal witness,
From the dead I arose;
“Lo, I’ll be with your forever,
Till the end of the world.”

HYMN #581 LORD, WHOSE LOVE THROUGH HUMBLE SERVICE

Lord, whose love through humble service
Bore the weight of human need,
Who upon the cross, forsaken,
Offered mercy’s perfect deed:

We your servants, bring the worship
Not of voice alone, but heart,
Consecrating to your purpose
Every gift that you impart.

Still your children wander homeless:
Still the hungry cry for bread;
Still the captives long for freedom;
Still in grief we mourn our dead.

As, O Lord, your deep compassion
Healed the sick and freed the soul,
Use the love your Spirit kindles
Still to save and make us whole.

As we worship, grant us vision,
Till your love’s revealing light
In its height and depth and greatness
Dawns upon our quickened sight,

Making known the needs and burdens
Your compassion bids us bear,
Stirring us to tireless striving
Your abundant life to share.

Called by worship to your service,
Forth in your dear name we go
To the child, the youth, the aged,
Love in living deeds to show;

Hope and health, good will and comfort,
Counsel, aid, and peace we give,
That your servants, Lord, in freedom
May your mercy know, and live.
