We celebrate with songs of praise;
For Christ, through whom all things were made,
Himself has fasted and has prayed.
2 Alone and fasting Moses saw
The loving God who gave the law;
And to Elijah, fasting, came
The steeds and chariots of flame.
3 So Daniel trained his mystic sight,
Delivered from the lions' might;
And John, the Bridegroom’s friend, became
The herald of Messiah's name.
4 Then grant, O God, that we may, too,
Return in fast and prayer to You.
Our spirits strengthen with Your grace,
And give us joy to see Your face. Scripture: Exodus 19:20 Languages: English Tune Title: HAMBURG

Free our hearts to faith and praise:

Bend our pride to Thy control;

Rich in things and poor in soul.
Grant us wisdom, grant us courage,
Lest we miss Thy kingdom's goal,
Lest we miss Thy kingdom's goal.
4 Set our feet on lofty places;
Fill our lives that we may be
Strengthened with all Christ-like graces
Pledged to set all captives free.
Grant us wisdom, grant us courage,
Lest we fail our call from Thee,
Lest we fail our call from Thee.

To the evils we deplore;
Let the gift of Thy salvation
Be our glory evermore.

Serving Thee whom we adore,
Serving Thee whom we adore. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:57-58 Languages: English Tune Title: CWM RHONDDA

It is the night of the dear Savior’s birth.
Long lay the world in sin and error pining,
Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth.

For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn!
Fall on your knees! O hear the angel voices!
O night divine, O night when Christ was born!

With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand.
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming,
Here came the Wise Men from Orient land.
The King of kings lay thus in lowly manger,
In all our trials born to be our Friend.
He knows our need— to our weakness is no stranger.
Behold your King, before Him lowly bend!
Behold your King, before Him lowly bend!
3 Truly He taught us to love one another;
His law is love and His gospel is peace.
Chains shall He break, for the slave is our brother,
And in His name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we;
Let all within us praise His holy name.
Christ is the Lord! O praise His name forever!

Author: Claudia F. Hernaman, 1838-1898 Hymnal: One Lord, One Faith, One Baptism #308 (2018) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Celebration of the Gospel Story Ash Wednesday and Lent Lyrics: 1 Lord, who throughout these forty days
For us did fast and pray,
Teach us to overcome our sins,
And close by You to stay.
2 As You with Satan did contend
And did the vict'ry win,
O give us strength in You to fight,
In You to conquer sin.
3 As You did hunger and did thirst,
So teach us, gracious Lord,
To die to self, and only live
By Your most holy word.
4 And through these days of penitence,
And through Your Passion-tide,
For evermore, in life and death,
O Lord, with us abide.
5 Abide with us that, when this life
Of suffering is past,
An Easter of unending joy
We may attain at last! Scripture: Matthew 4:1-11 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. FLAVIAN

Our hope for years to come,
Our shelter from the stormy blast,
And our eternal home!

Still may we dwell secure;
Sufficient is Thine arm alone,
And our defense is sure.
3 Before the hills in order stood
Or earth received her frame,
From everlasting Thou art God,
To endless years the same.
4 Time, like an ever-rolling stream,
Bears all its sons away;
They fly, forgotten, as a dream
Dies at the op'ning day.

Our hope for years to come,
Be Thou our guide while life shall last,
And our eternal home. Scripture: Psalm 90:1-5 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. ANNE
