All Who Love and Serve Your City
Author: Erik Routley Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #433 (1989) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Topics: Work, Daily Lyrics: 1 All who love and serve your city,
all who bear its daily stress,
all who cry for peace and justice,
all who curse and all who bless:
2 In your day of loss and sorrow,
in your day of helpless strife,
honor, peace, and love retreating,
seek the Lord, who is your life.
3 In your day of wealth and plenty,
wasted work and wasted play,
call to mind the word of Jesus,
"Work ye yet while it is day."
4 For all days are days of judgment,
and the Lord is waiting still,
drawing near to all who spurn him,
offering peace from Calvary's hill.
5 Risen Lord, shall yet the city
be the city of despair?
Come today, our Judge, our Glory,
be its name, "The Lord is there!"
Scripture: Ezekiel 48:35 Languages: English Tune Title: CHARLESTOWN
All Who Love and Serve Your City
O God of Every Nation
Author: William W. Reid Jr. Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #435 (1989) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Work, Daily Lyrics: 1 O God of every nation,
of every race and land,
redeem your whole creation
with your almighty hand;
where hate and fear divide us,
and bitter threats are hurled,
in love and mercy guide us,
and heal our strife-torn world.
2 From search for wealth and power
and scorn of truth and right,
from trust in bombs that shower
destruction through the night,
from pride of race and station
and blindness to your way,
deliver every nation,
eternal God, we pray.
3 Lord, strengthen all who labor
that all may find release
from fear of rattling saber,
from dread of war's increase;
when hope and courage falter,
Lord, let your voice be heard;
with faith that none can alter,
your servants undergird.
4 Keep bright in us the vision
of days when war shall cease,
when hatred and division
give way to love and peace,
till dawns the morning glorious
when truth and justice reign,
and Christ shall rule victorious
o'er all the world's domain.

Forth in Thy Name, O Lord
Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #438 (1989) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Work, Daily Lyrics: 1. Forth in thy name, O Lord, I go,
my daily labor to pursue;
thee, only thee, resolved to know
in all I think or speak or do.
2. The task thy wisdom hath assigned,
O let me cheerfully fulfill;
in all my works thy presence find,
and prove thy good and perfect will.
3. Thee may I set at my right hand,
whose eyes mine inmost substance see,
and labor on at thy command,
and offer all my works to thee.
4. For thee delightfully employ
what e'er thy bounteous grace hath given;
and run my course with even joy,
and closely walk with thee to heaven.

Your daily stage of duty run;
Shake off dull sloth and joyful rise
To pay your morning sacrifice.

And have refreshed me while I slept,
Grant, Lord, when I from death shall wake,
I may of endless light partake.
3 Lord, I my vows to you renew.
Disperse my sins as morning dew;
Guard my first springs of thought and will,
And with yourself my spirit fill.
4 Direct, control, suggest this day
All I design or do or say
That all my pow'rs with all their might
In your sole glory may unite.
5 Praise God, from whom all blessings flow;
Praise him, all creatures here below;
Praise him above, O heav'nly host;
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

God Is Here!
Author: Fred Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Worship #526 (2006) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Daily Life and Work First Line: God is here! As we your people Lyrics: 1 God is here! As we your people
meet to offer praise and prayer,
may we find in fuller measure
what it is in Christ we share.
Here, as in the world around us,
all our varied skills and arts
wait the coming of the Spirit
into open minds and hearts.
2 Here are symbols to remind us
of our lifelong need of grace;
here are table, font, and pulpit;
here the cross has central place.
Here in honesty of preaching,
here in silence, as in speech,
here, in newness and renewal,
God the Spirit comes to each.
3 Here our children find a welcome
in the Shepherd's flock and fold;
here as bread and wine are taken,
Christ sustains us as of old.
Here the servants of the Servant
seek in worship to explore
what it means in daily living
to believe and to adore.
4 Lord of all, of church and kingdom,
in an age of change and doubt,
keep us faithful to the gospel;
help us work your purpose out.
Here, in this day's dedication,
all we have to give, receive;
we, who cannot live without you,
we adore you! We believe!

Fill Thou My Life, O Lord My God
Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #534 (2018) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Abiding in Christ; Christian Life; Christian Service; Communion with Christ and God; Contentment; Daily Living; Good Works; Life Sacredness of; Praise; Supplications For Sanctification Lyrics: 1 Fill thou my life, O Lord my God,
in ev'ry part with praise,
that my whole being may proclaim
thy being and thy ways.
Not for the lip of praise alone,
nor e'en the praising heart,
I ask, but for a life made up
of praise in ev'ry part:
2 Praise in the common words I speak,
life's common looks and tones,
in fellowship enjoyed at home
with my beloved ones,
enduring wrong, reproach, or loss
with sweet and steadfast will,
forgiving freely those who hate,
returning good for ill.
3 So shall each fear, each fret, each care
be turned into a song,
and ev'ry winding of the way
the echo shall prolong.
So shall no part of day or night
from sacredness be free,
but all my life, in ev'ry step,
be fellowship with thee.
Scripture: Psalm 34:1 Languages: English Tune Title: ELLACOMBE
