Hymn Lyrics
Hymn 416 – Blessed Jesus, at your word
1. Blessed Jesus, at your word we are gathered all to hear you; let our minds and wills be stirred now to love you and revere you; by your teachings true and holy drawn from earth to love you solely.
2. All our knowledge, sense and sight lie in deepest darkness shrouded, till your Spirit breaks our night with the beams of truth unclouded; you alone to God can win us; you must work all good within us.
3. Glorious Lord, yourself impart, light of light, from God proceeding, open now each mind and heart; help us by the Spirit's pleading. Hear the cry your church now raises; Lord, accept our prayers and praises.
Hymn 203 – When Jesus the healer passed through Galilee
1. When Jesus the healer passed through Galilee, Heal us, heal us today! the deaf came to hear and the blind came to see. Heal us, Lord Jesus!
2. A paralyzed man was let down through a roof. Heal us, heal us today his sins were forgiven his walking the proof. Heal us, Lord Jesus!
3. The death of his daughter caused Jairus to weep. Heal us, heal us today! The Lord took her hand, and he raised her from sleep. Heal us, Lord Jesus!
4. When blind Bartimaeus cried out to the Lord, Heal us, heal us today! his faith made him whole and his sight was restored. Heal us, Lord Jesus!
Hymn 497 – Word of God, across the ages
1. Word of God, across the ages comes your message to our life, source of hope, forever present in our toil and fears and strife, constant witness to God’s mercy, still our grace, whate’er befall, guide unfailing strength eternal, offered freely to us all.
2. Story of our wondrous journey from the shadows of the night, garnered truth of sage and prophet, guiding forward into light, words and deeds of Christ our teacher, pointing to the life and way, still appealing, still inspiring, in the struggles of today.
3. In the tongues of all the peoples may the message bless and heal, as devout and patient scholars more and more its depths reveal. Bless, O God, to wise and simple, all your truth of ageless worth, till all lands receive the witness and your knowledge fills the earth.
3. We are the body of which the Lord is head, called to obey him, now risen from the dead; he wills us be a family, diverse yet truly one: oh let us freely give our gifts, and so shall God’s work on earth be done.
4. We are a temple, the Spirit’s dwelling place, formed in great weakness, a cup to hold God’s grace; alone, we die, for on its own each ember loses fire: yet joined in one the flame burns on to give warmth and light, and to inspire.
Hymn 833 – O Canada
O Canada! Our home and native land! True patriot love in all thy sons command. With glowing hearts we see thee rise, the true north strong and free; from far and wide, O Canada, we stand on guard for thee. God keep our land glorious and free! O Canada! We stand on guard for thee. O Canada! We stand on guard for thee.
Hymn 834 – God save our gracious king
God save our gracious king; long live our noble king; God save the king: send him victorious, happy and glorious, long to reign over us: God save the king.
