tell the world what God has done:
God in Christ has come to stay.
Live tomorrow's life today!

when a hungry child is fed,

seeing wrong and setting right:
God in Christ has come to stay.
Live tomorrow's life today!
5 When a stranger's not alone,
where the homeless find a home,
praise the love that Christ revealed,
living, working, in our world.

guide our thoughts and change our ways.
God in Christ has come to stay,
live tomorrow's life today!

and hasten to that glorious day.

and run our earthly course with joy,
and closely walk with you to heaven. Languages: English Tune Title: CANONBURY

Creating God, We Give You Thanks
Author: William deWitt Hyde Hymnal: Voices United #292 (1996) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Work and Recreation Lyrics: 1 Creating God, we give you thanks
that this your world is incomplete;
that battle calls our marshalled ranks,
that work awaits our hands and feet.
2 You hast not finished woman, man,
for we are in the making still,
as friends who share the Maker’s plan
as those who know your loving will.
3 Beyond the present sin and shame,
wrong’s bitter, cruel, scorching blight,
we see the beckoning vision flame,
the blessèd kingdom of the right.
4 What though the kingdom long delay,
and still with haughty foes must cope?
It gives us that for which to pray,
a field for toil and faith and hope.
5 Since what we choose is what we are,
and what we love we yet shall be,
the goal may ever shine afar,
the will to win it makes us free. Tune Title: WAREHAM
Creating God, We Give You Thanks

God Is Here
Author: Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: Voices United #389 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Work and Recreation 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 God 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! Languages: English Tune Title: BLAENWERN
God Is Here
Now Let Us from This Table Rise
Author: Fred Kaan Hymnal: Voices United #483 (1996) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Work and Recreation Lyrics: 1 Now let us from this table rise
renewed in body, mind and soul;
with Christ we die and live again,
his selfless love has made us whole.
2 With minds alert, upheld by grace,
to spread the word in speech and deed,
we follow in the steps of Christ,
at one with all in hope and need.
3 To fill each human house with love,
it is the sacrament of care;
the work that Christ began to do
we humbly pledge ourselves to share.
4 Then give us grace, Companion-God,
to choose again the pilgrim way
and help us to accept with joy
the challenge of tomorrow's day. Languages: English Tune Title: NIAGARA

O Master, Let Me Walk with Thee
Author: Washington Gladden Hymnal: Voices United #560 (1996) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Work and Recreation Lyrics: 1 O Master, let me walk with thee
in lowly paths of service free;
tell me thy secret, help me bear
the strain of toil, the fret of care.
2 Help me the slow of heart to move
with some clear, winning word of love;
teach me the wayward feet to stay,
and guide them in the homeward way.
3 Teach me thy patience; still with thee ,
in closer, dearer company,
in work that keeps faith sure and strong,
in trust that triumphs over wrong,
4 in hope that sends a shining ray
far down the future's broadening way,
in peace that only thou canst give,
with thee, O Master, let me live. Languages: English Tune Title: MARYTON
O Master, Let Me Walk with Thee
