The Scottish Episcopal

Church’s Order for the Eucharist

1982 has an introduction to the

Confession ‘God is love and we

are God’s children. There is no

room for fear in love. We love

because God loved us first.’

It is an excellent condensation

of the reading from 1 John

chapter 4; easy to teach and

remember.

Opening Hymn

Hail, to the Lord’s Anointed,

great David’s greater Son!

hail, in the time appointed,

his reign on earth begun!

He comes to break oppression,

to set the captive free,

to take away transgression,

and rule in equity.

Arabia’s desert-ranger

to him shall bow the knee;

the Ethiopian stranger

his glory come to see;

with offerings of devotion,

ships from the isle shall meet,

to pour the wealth of ocean

in tribute at his feet.

Kings shall bow down before him,

and gold and incense bring;

all nations shall adore him,

his praise all people sing:

to him shall prayer unceasing

and daily vows ascend;

his kingdom still increasing,

a kingdom without end.

James Montgomery* 1771-1854

St Saviour’s Cathedral Hymns 29 April 2018

Gradual Hymn

God is love, let heav’n adore him;

God is love, let earth rejoice;

let creation sing before him,

and exalt him with one voice.

God, who laid the earth’s

foundation,

he who spread the heavens above,

and who breathes through all

creation

God is love, eternal Love.

God is love, and gently enfolding

all the world in one embrace,

with unfailing grasp is holding

every child of every race.

And when human hearts are

breaking

under sorrow’s iron rod,

then they find that self-same aching

deep within the heart of God.

Timothy Rees 1874-1939 alt

Offertory Hymn

Lord, enthroned in heavenly splendour,

first-begotten from the dead,

you alone our strong defender,

lifting up your people's head:

alleluia, alleluia,

Jesus, true and living bread.

Here our humble homage pay we,

here in loving reverence bow;

here for faith's discernment pray we,

lest we fail to know you now:

alleluia, alleluia,

you are here, we ask not how.

Though the lowliest form now veils you

as of old in Bethlehem,

here as there your angels hail you,

branch and flower of Jesse's stem;

alleluia, alleluia,

we in worship join with them.

Paschal Lamb, your offering, finished

once for all when you were slain,

in its fullness undiminished

shall for evermore remain,

alleluia, alleluia,

cleansing souls from every stain.

Life-imparting heavenly manna,

stricken rock with streaming side,

heaven and earth with loud hosanna

worship you, the Lamb who died

alleluia, alleluia,

ris'n, ascended, glorified!

George Hugh Bourne 1840-1925 alt.

St Saviour’s Cathedral Hymns 29 April 2018

Final Hymn

Gracious Spirit, Holy Ghost,

taught by thee we covet most

of thy gifts at Pentecost,

holy, heavenly love.

Love is kind, and suffers long,

love is meek, and thinks no wrong,

love than death itself more strong;

therefore give us love.

Faith and hope and love we see

joining hand in hand agree;

but the greatest of the three,

and the best, is love.

From the overshadowing

of thy gold and silver wing

shed on us, who to thee sing,

holy, heavenly love.

Christopher Wordsworth 1807-1885

I will pay my vows in the | sight of | all that | fear you;

27 The meek shall eat of the sacrifice and be | satis- | fied:

and those who seek the Lord shall praise him —

may their | hearts re- | joice for | ever!

28 Let all the ends of the earth remember and turn | to the| Lord:

and let all the families of the | nations |

worship . be- | fore him.

29 For the kingdom | is the | Lord’s:

and he shall be | ruler | over . the | nations.

30 (Women 1st Half) How can those who sleep in the earth | do him | homage:

or those that descend to the | dust bow | down be- | fore

him?

31 (Men 1st Half) But he has saved my life | for him- | self:

and my pos- | teri- | ty shall | serve him.

32 (All) This shall be told of my Lord to a future | gener- | ation:

and his righteousness declared to a people yet un- | born, that | he

has | done it
