Be still, my soul
Author: Katherina von Schlegel, b. 1697; Jane L. Borthwick Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #68 (2000) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Topics: Year B Proper 17 First Line: Be still, my soul: the Lord is at your side Lyrics: 1 Be still, my soul: the Lord is at your side;
bear patiently the cross of grief and pain;
leave to your God to order and provide;
in every change he faithful will remain.
Be still, my soul: your best, your heav'nly friend,
through thorny ways, leads to a joyful end.
2 Be still, my soul: your God will undertake
to guide the future as he has the past.
Your hope, your confidence let nothing shake,
all now mysterious shall be bright at last.
Be still, my soul: the tempests still obey
his voice, who ruled them once on Galilee.
3 Be still, my soul: the hour is hastening on
when we shall be for ever with the Lord,
when disappointment, grief and fear are gone,
sorrow forgotten, love’s pure joy restored.
Be still, my soul: when change and tears are past
all safe and blessèd we shall meet at last.
Scripture: James 1:17 Languages: English Tune Title: FINLANDIA

O for a heart to praise my God
Author: Charles Wesley (1707-1788) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #132 (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Proper 17 Year C Lyrics: 1 O for a heart to praise my God,
a heart from sin set free;
a heart that's sprinkled with the blood
so freely shed for me:
2 A heart resigned, submissive, meek,
my great Redeemer's throne;
where only Christ is heard to speak,
where Jesus reigns alone:
3 A humble, lowly, contrite heart,
believing, true, and clean,
which neither life nor death can part
from him that dwells within:
4 A heart in every thought renewed,
and full of love divine;
perfect and right and pure and good —
a copy, Lord, of thine.
5 Thy nature, gracious Lord, impart,
come quickly from above;
write thy new name upon my heart,
thy new best name of Love. Scripture: Psalm 51:10 Languages: English Tune Title: STOCKTON

Before Your Cross, O Jesus
Author: Ferdinand Q. Blanchard Hymnal: The New Century Hymnal #191 (1995) Meter: 7.6.8.6.8.6.8.6 Topics: Year A Proper 17 Lyrics: 1 Before your cross, O Jesus,
our lives are judged today;
the meaning of our eager strife
is tested by your way.
Across our restless living
the light streams from your cross,
and by its clear, revealing beams
we measure gain and loss.
2 The hopes that lead us onward,
the fears that hold us back,
our will to dare great things for God,
the courage that we lack,
The faith we keep in goodness,
our love, as low or pure,
on all, the judgment of the cross
falls steady, clear, and sure.
3 Yet humbly, in our striving,
we rise to face its test.
We crave the power to do your will
as once you did it best.
On us let now the healing
of your great Spirit fall,
and make us brave and full of joy
to answer to your call. Scripture: Mark 8:34 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. CHRISTOPHER
Before Your Cross, O Jesus
Gracious Spirit, Holy Ghost
Author: Christopher Wordsworth Hymnal: Voices United #193 (1996) Meter: 7.7.7.5 Topics: Proper 17 Year C Lyrics: 1 Gracious Spirit, Holy Ghost,
taught by you, we covet most,
of your gifts at Pentecost,
holy, heavenly love.
2 Love is kind, and suffers long;
love is humble, thinks no wrong;
love than death itself more strong;
therefore give us love.
3 Prophecy will fade away,
melting in the light of day;
love will ever with us stay;
therefore give us love.
4 Faith will vanish into sight;
hope be emptied in delight;
love in heaven will shine more bright;
therefore give us love.
5 Faith and hope and love we see
joining hand in hand agree;
but the greatest of the three,
and the best is love. Languages: English Tune Title: CAPETOWN
Gracious Spirit, Holy Ghost
"Take Up Your Cross," the Savior Said
Author: Charles W. Everest Hymnal: The New Century Hymnal #204 (1995) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Year A Proper 17 Lyrics: 1 "Take up your cross," the Savior said,
"if you would my disciple be;
Take up your cross with willing heart
and humbly follow after me."
2 Take up your cross; let not its weight
fill your weak spirit with alarm;
Christ's strength will bear your spirit up
and brace your heart, support your arm.
3 Take up your cross, heed not the shame,
and let your foolish pride be still;
For Christ did not refuse to die
upon a cross on Calvary's hill.
4 Take up your cross and follow Christ,
nor think till death to lay it down,
For only those who bear the cross
may hope to wear the glorious crown. Scripture: Mark 8:34 Languages: English Tune Title: DEUS TUORUM MILITUM
