Lord, You Give the Great Commission
Author: Jeffery Rowthorn, b. 1934 Hymnal: RitualSong #607 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Ministry Lyrics: 1 Lord, you give the great commission:
"Heal the sick and preach the word."
Lest the Church neglect its mission,
And the gospel go unheard,
Help us witness to your purpose
With renewed integrity;
With the Spirit's gifts empow'r us
For the work of ministry.
2 Lord, you call us to your service:
"In my name baptize and teach."
That the world may trust your promise,
Life abundant meant for each,
Give us all new fervor, draw us
Closer in community;
With the Spirit's gifts empow'r us
For the work of ministry.
3 Lord, you make the common holy:
"This my body, this my blood."
Let us all, for earth's true glory,
Daily lift life heavenward,
Asking that the world around us
Share your children's liberty;
With the Spirit's gifts empow'r us
For the work of ministry.
4 Lord, you show us love's true measure:
"Father, what they do, forgive."
Yet we hoard as private treasure
All that you so freely give.
May your care and mercy lead us
To a just society;
With the Spirit's gifts empow'r us
For the work of ministry.
5 Lord, you bless with words assuring:
"I am with you to the end."
Faith and hope and love restoring,
May we serve as you intend,
And, amid the cares that claim us,
Hold in mind eternity;
With the Spirit's gifts empow'r us
For the work of ministry. Scripture: Matthew 28:18 Languages: English Tune Title: ABBOT'S LEIGH

The institution of a gospel ministry from Christ
Author: Dr. Doddridge Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CDVII (1792) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Gospel Ministry instituted by Christ First Line: Father of mercies, in thy house Lyrics: 1 Father of mercies. in thy house
Smile on our homage, and our vows;
While with a grateful heart we share
These pledges of our Savior's care.
2 The Savior, when to heaven he rose
In splendid triumph o'er his foes
Scatter'd his gifts on men below,
And wide his royal bounties flow,
3 Hence sprung th' apostles' honor'd name,
Sacred beyond heroic fame;
In lowlier form to bless our eyes,
Pastors from hence, and teachers rise.
4 From Christ their varied gifts derive,
And fed by Christ their graces live:
While guarded by his potent hand,
'Midst all the rage of hell they stand.
5 So shall the bright succession run
Thro' the last courses of the sun;
While unborn churches by their care
Shall rise and flourish large and fair,
6 Jesus our Lord, their hearts shall know,
The spring, whence all these blessing flow:
Pastors and people shout his praise
Thro' the long round of endless days.

On sending a member into the work of the ministry: Isaiah's obedience to the heavenly vision
Author: Dr. Doddridge Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CDVIII (1792) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: One called to the work of ministry First Line: Our God ascends his lofty throne Lyrics: 1 Our God ascends his lofty throne,
Array'd in majesty unknown;
His lustre all the temple fills,
And spreads o'er all th’ ethereal hills.
2 The holy, holy, holy Lord,
By all the Seraphim ador'd,
And, while they stand beneath his seat,
They veil their faces, and their feet.
3 Lord, how can sinful lips proclaim
The honors of so great a name?
O for thine altar’s glowing coal,
To touch his lips to fire his soul!
4 Then if a messenger thou ask,
A laborer for the hardest task,
Thro’ all his weakness and his fear,
Love shall reply, "Thy servant’s here."
5 Nor let his willing soul complain,
Tho’ every effort seem in vain;
It ample recompense shall be,
But to have wrought, O God, for thee.

The Ministry of Angels
Hymnal: The Book of Worship #142 (1867) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Angelic Ministry First Line: Great God! what hosts of angels stand Lyrics: 1 Great God! what hosts of angels stand
In shining ranks at Thy right hand,
Arrayed in robes of dazzling light,
With pinions stretched for distant flight!
2 Immortal fires! seraphic flames!
Who can recount their various names?
In strength and beauty they excel;
For near the throne of God they dwell.
3 How eagerly they wish to know
The duties he would have them do!
What joy their active spirits feel,
To execute their Sovereign's will!
4 Hither, at His command, they fly
To guard the beds on which we lie,
To shield our persons night and day,
And scatter all our fears away.
5 Send, O my God, some angel down,
(Though to a mortal eye unknown,)
To guide and guard my doubtful way
Up to the realms of endless day. Languages: English
