Planted in Christ, the living vine

Author: S. F. Smith Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #488 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian Church Constitution Lyrics: 1 Planted in Christ, the living vine, This day, with one accord, Ourselves, with humble faith and joy, We yield to thee, O Lord. 2 Joined in one body may we be; One inward life partake; One be our heart; one heavenly hope In every bosom wake. 3 In prayer, in effort, tears, and toils, One wisdom be our guide; Taught by one Spirit from above, In thee may we abide. 4 Complete in us, whom grace hath called, Thy glorious work begun, O thou in whom the church on earth And church in heaven are one. 5 Around this feeble, trusting band Thy sheltering pinions spread, Nor let the storms of trial beat Too fiercely on our head. 6 Then, when, among the saints in light, Our joyful spirits shine, Shall anthems of immortal praise, O Lamb of God, be thine. Scripture: John 15:5

With stately towers and bulwarks strong

Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #489 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian Church Constitution Lyrics: 1 With stately towers and bulwarks strong, Unrivalled and alone-- Loved theme oft for the sacred song-- God's holy city shone. 2 Thus fair was Zion's chosen seat, The glory of all lands; Yet fairer, and in strength complete, The Christian temple stands. 3 The faithful of each clime and age This glorious church compose; Built on the Rock--with idle rage The threat'ning tempest blows. 4 Fear not: though hostile bands alarm, Thy God is thy defense: And weak and powerless every arm Against Omnipotence.

Oh, it is joy for those to meet

Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #506 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian Church Fellowship Lyrics: 1 Oh, it is joy for those to meet Whom one communion blends, Counsel to hold in converse sweet, And talk as Christian friends. 2 'Tis joy to think the angel train, Who 'mid heaven's temple shine, To seek our earthly temples deign, And in our anthems join. 3 But chief, 'tis joy to think, that he, To whom his church is dear, Delights her gathered flock to see, Her joint devotions hear. 4 Then who would choose to walk abroad, While here such joys are given? This is indeed the house of God, And this the gate of heaven! Scripture: Psalm 133:1

Now in holy convocation

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Sacred Poems and Hymns #202 (1854) Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Topics: Centenary of a Christian Church Lyrics: Now in holy convocation, Hands, and hearts, and voices raise, In one hymn of jubilation, To our great Redeemer's praise; "Ebenezer!" He hath led us all our ways. "Ebenezer!" Those before us, Sang at every onward stage; This to-day shall swell the chorus In our house of pilgrimage: May our children Sing the same from age to age! So in heaven, when all the story Of His love to us is shown, Be our earliest song in glory, "Ebenezer!" round the Throne While for ever, We shall know as we are known. Languages: English

Kindred in Christ, for his dear sake

Author: Newton Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #511 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Christian Church Fellowship Lyrics: 1 Kindred in Christ, for his dear sake, A hearty welcome here receive; May we together now partake The joys which only he can give. 2 May he, by those kind care we meet, Send his good Spirit from above, Make our communications sweet, And cause our hearts to burn with love. 3 Forgotten be each worldly theme, When Christians see each other thus; We only wish to speak of him Who lived, and died, and reigns for us. 4 We'll talk of all he did and said, And suffered for us here below; The path he marked for us to tread, And what he's doing for us now. 5 Thus, as the moments pass away, We'll love, and wonder, and adore; And hasten on the glorious day When we shall meet to part no more. Scripture: Psalm 133:1
