I come with joy, a child of God
Author: Brian A. Wren, b. 1936 Hymnal: Common Praise #305 (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Lent III Year C Lyrics: 1 I come with joy, a child of God,
forgiven, loved and free,
the life of Jesus to recall,
in love laid down for me.
2 I come with Christians far and near
to find, as all are fed,
the new community of love
in Christ's communion bread.
3 As Christ breaks bread, and bids us share,
each proud division ends.
The love that made us, makes us one,
and strangers now are friends.
4 The Spirit of the risen Christ,
unseen, but ever near,
is in such friendship better known,
alive among us here.
5 Together met, together bound
by all that God has done,
we'll go with joy, to give the world
the love that makes us one. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 10:17 Languages: English Tune Title: ST BOTOLPH
I come with joy, a child of God

Oft in danger, oft in woe
Author: Henry Kirke White, 1785-1806 Hymnal: Common Praise #547 (2000) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Topics: Lent III Year B Lyrics: 1 Oft in danger, oft in woe,
onward, Christians, onward go;
bear the toil, maintain the strife,
strengthened with the bread of life.
2 Onward, Christians, onward go,
join the war, and face the foe;
will ye flee in danger's hour?
Know ye not your Captain's power?
3 Let not sorrow dim your eye;
soon shall every tear be dry:
let not fears your course impede;
great your strength, if great your need.
4 Let your drooping hearts be glad;
march in heavenly armour clad;
fight, nor think the battle long:
soon shall victory wake your song.
5 Onward then in battle move;
more than conquerors ye shall prove:
though opposed by many a foe,
Christian soldiers, onward go.

he whose word cannot be broken
formed thee for his own abode.

2 See, the streams of living waters,
springing from eternal love,
well supply thy sons and daughters,

Who can faint while such a river
ever flows their thirst to assuage:
grace which, like the Lord the giver,
never fails from age to age?
*3 Round each habitation hovering,
see the cloud and fire appear
for a glory and a covering,
showing that the Lord is near.
Thus they march, the pillar leading,
light by night and shade by day;
daily on the manna feeding
which he gives them when they pray.

I through grace a member am,
let the world deride or pity,

Author: A. M. Toplady, 1740-1778 Hymnal: Common Praise #565 (2000) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Topics: Lent III Year C Lyrics: 1 Rock of ages, cleft for me,
let me hide myself in thee;
let the water and the blood,
from thy riven side which flowed,
be of sin the double cure:
cleanse me from its guilt and power.
2 Not the labours of my hands
can fulfil thy law's demands;
could my zeal no respite know,
could my tears for ever flow,
all for sin could not atone:
thou must save, and thou alone.
3 Nothing in my hand I bring,
simply to thy cross I cling;
naked, come to thee for dress;
helpless, look to thee for grace;
foul, I to the fountain fly;
wash me, Saviour, or I die.
4 While I draw this fleeting breath,
when my eyelids close in death,
when I soar through tracts unknown,
see thee on thy judgement throne;
Rock of ages, cleft for me,
let me hide myself in thee.

Leaving Her Water Jar Behind
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., b. 1944 Hymnal: Worship (4th ed.) #912 (2011) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8 Topics: Lent III A Lyrics: 1 Leaving her water jar behind,
The woman ran from Jacob's well;
Her daily chores had fled her mind,
For she had wondrous news to tell:
Forsaking what had drawn her first.
She quenched instead a deeper thirst.
2 "Come, see a man who told me all
That I have ever claimed or done!
Such wisdom from his lips did fall!
Could this be God's Anointed One?"
Her neighbors heard, then with her ran
To meet this wise and holy man.
3 When Jesus spoke, his words brought life,
Like water poured on shriveled seed:
His truth as piercing as a knife,
His grace yet greater than their need.
So they prevailed on him to stay
And teach them more another day.
4 By all the wells of our own day,
This Jesus waits to meet us still,
Where our pretenses fall away
When we ask him our lives to fill.
Come with your thirsty heart and mind:
You too may leave your jar behind. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. CATHERINE
Leaving Her Water Jar Behind
Sovereign Maker of All Things
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., b. 1944 Hymnal: Worship (4th ed.) #960 (2011) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Topics: Lent III C First Line: Sov'reign Maker of all things Lyrics: 1 Sov'reign Maker of all things,
God of covenant and grace,
Ev'ry creature knows your pow'r.
Quakes with fear before your face.
But your mercy far exceeds
What our minds can comprehend;
Deep compassion stays your hand,
Chast'ning not, though we offend.
2 You have promised to forgive
Contrite sinners who repent;
So I come with humbled heart,
By your word made confident.
I have sinned, Lord, I have sinned:
Well I know my wickedness.
Yet I make this prayer to you:
Lord, forgive me, heal, and bless.
3 Let me not be lost in sin,
Banished to eternal night;
God who hears the penitent.
Let your goodness show your might.
Though I be unworthy, Lord,
Your great mercy will I claim,
Till I join the hosts above
Who forever praise your name. Languages: English Tune Title: ABERYSTRWYTH

Dear Lord and Father of mankind
Author: John Greenleaf Whittier, 1807-1892 Hymnal: Common Praise #411 (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.8.6 Topics: Epiphany III Year A; Fifth Sunday Before Lent Year C; Ash Wednesday; Proper 7 Year C; Proper 21 Year B; Lent Lyrics: 1 Dear Lord and Father of mankind,
forgive our foolish ways;
re-clothe us in our rightful mind,
in purer lives thy service find,
in deeper reverence praise.
2 In simple trust like theirs who heard,
beside the Syrian sea,
the gracious calling of the Lord,
let us, like them, without a word
rise up and follow thee.
*3 O Sabbath rest by Galilee!
O calm of hills above,
where Jesus knelt to share with thee
the silence of eternity,
interpreted by love!
4 Drop thy still dews of quietness,
till all our strivings cease;
take from our souls the strain and stress,
and let our ordered lives confess
the beauty of thy peace.
5 Breathe through the heats of our desire
thy coolness and thy balm;
let sense be dumb, let flesh retire;
speak through the earthquake, wind, and fire,
O still small voice of calm. Scripture: 1 Kings 19:11-12 Languages: English Tune Title: REPTON

Father, hear the prayer we offer
Author: Love Maria Willis, 1824-1908 Hymnal: Common Praise #416b (2000) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Topics: Lent I Year A; Proper 9 Year B; Epiphany III Year A Lyrics: 1 Father, hear the prayer we offer:
not for ease that prayer shall be,
but for strength that we may ever
live our lives courageously.
2 Not for ever in green pastures
do we ask our way to be;
but the steep and rugged pathway
may we tread rejoicingly.
3 Not for ever by still waters
would we idly rest and stay;
but would smite the living fountains
from the rocks along our way.
4 Be our strength in hours of weakness,
in our wanderings be our guide;
through endeavour, failure, danger,
Father, be thou at our side. Scripture: 1 Samuel 7:12 Languages: English Tune Title: MARCHING
Father, hear the prayer we offer
Forth in thy name, O Lord, I go
Author: Charles Wesley 1707-1788 Hymnal: Common Praise #430 (2000) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Epiphany III Year C; Third Sunday Before Lent Year B Lyrics: 1 Forth in thy name, O Lord, I go,
my daily labour 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 fulfil;
in all my works thy presence find,
and prove thy good and perfect will.
3 Preserve me from my calling's snare,
and hide my simple heart above,
above the thorns of choking care,
the gilded baits of worldly love.
4 Thee may I set at my right hand,
whose eyes my inmost substance see,
and labour on at thy command,
and offer all my works to thee.
5 Give me to bear your easy yoke,
and every moment watch and pray,
and still to things eternal look,
and hasten to thy glorious day;
6 For thee delightfully employ
whate’er thy bounteous grace hath given,
and run my course with even joy,
and closely walk with thee to heaven. Scripture: 2 Corinthians 4:18 Languages: English Tune Title: SONG 34 (ANGELS' SONG)
Forth in thy name, O Lord, I go
