Do you feel your store of love is running low?
Yet, everyone around you needs it, heaven knows.
You’ve been praying for the day
You’ll feel it coming back your way,
Like so many promises you’ve heard.
Well, if it’s true that our Creator is Love alone,
Then Love’s not something we must conjure on our own.
And it upholds us when we’re weak,
So we can turn the other cheek,
Confident that God fulfills His word.
Love comes to you straight from the source.
And it shines from you with effortless force,
Gracing all those you meet throughout your life,
Whether they’ve brought you blessings or strife.
You see, it can’t be depleted, so let’s be generous.
We love because God Loves us.
Have you ever gone astray and wound up lost?
Those promised pleasures let you down at quite a cost.
Well, the beauty of it is
He never dropped your hand from His.
You were guided home to open arms.
And no one’s ever left outside God’s tender care.
In the desert, in the depths His voice will call you there.
And if you listen and obey
His light will surely shine the way,
Leading you and shielding you from harm.
Love comes to you straight from the source.
And it shines from you with effortless force,
Gracing all those you meet throughout your life,
Whether they’ve brought you blessings or strife.
You see, it can’t be depleted, so let’s be generous.
We love because God Loves us.
And if it seems otherwise,
We only have to lift our eyes
And see that neither height nor depth,
Past or future, life or death
Can separate us from the Love of God.
Love comes to you straight from the source.
And it shines from you with effortless force,
Gracing all those you meet throughout your life,
Whether they’ve brought you blessings or strife.
You see, it can’t be depleted, so let’s be generous.
We love because God
We love because God
We love because God Loves us.

O, the clanging bells of time,
Night and day they never cease;
We are wearied with their chime,
For they do not bring us peace;
And we hush our breath to hear,
And we strain our eyes to see
If thy shores are drawing near,
Eternity! Eternity!
O, the clanging bells of time,
How their changes rise and fall,
But in undertone sublime,
Sounding clearly through them all,
Is a voice that must be heard,
As our moments onward flee,
And it speaketh, aye, one word,
Eternity! Eternity!
O, the clanging bells of time,
To their voices, loud and low,
In a long, unresting line
We are marching to and fro;
And we yearn for sight or sound
Of the life that is to be,
For thy breath doth wrap us round,
Eternity! Eternity!
O, the clanging bells of time,
Soon their notes will all be dumb,
And in joy and peace sublime,
We shall feel the silence come;
And our souls their thirst will slake,
And our eyes the King will see,
When thy glorious morn shall break,
Eternity! Eternity!Hymn 418

All power is given unto our Lord,
On Him we place reliance;
With truth from out His sacred word
We bid our foes defiance.
With Him we shall prevail,
Whatever may assail;
He is our shield and tower,
Almighty is His power;
His kingdom is forever.
Rejoice, ye people, praise His name,
His care doth e’er surround us.
His love to error’s thralldom came,
And from its chains unbound us.
Our Lord is God alone,
No other power we own;
No other voice we heed,
No other help we need;
His kingdom is forever.
O then give thanks to God on high,
Who life to all is giving;
The hosts of death before Him fly,
In Him we all are living.
Then let us know no fear,
Our King is ever near;
Our stay and fortress strong,
Our strength, our hope, our song;
His kingdom is forever.

A grateful heart a garden is,
Where there is always room
For every lovely, Godlike grace
To come to perfect bloom.
A grateful heart a fortress is,
A staunch and rugged tower,
Where God’s omnipotence, revealed,
Girds man with mighty power.
A grateful heart a temple is,
A shrine so pure and white,
Where angels of His presence keep
Calm watch by day or night.
Grant then, dear Father-Mother, God,
Whatever else befall,
This largess of a grateful heart
That loves and blesses all.
-
Take my life, and let it be
Consecrated, Lord, to Thee.
Take my moments and my days,
Let them flow in ceaseless praise.
Take my hands, and let them move
At the impulse of Thy love.
Take my feet, and let them be
Swift and beautiful for Thee.
Take my voice, and let me sing
Always, only, for my King.
Take my lips, and let them be
Filled with messages from Thee.
Take my every thought, to use
In the way that Thou shalt choose.
Take my love; O Lord, I pour
At Thy feet its treasure store.
I am Thine, and I will be
Ever, only, all for Thee.
-
Give me, O Lord, an understanding heart,
That I may learn to know myself in Thee,
To spurn the wrong and choose the better part
And thus from sinful bondage be set free.
Give me, O Lord, a meek and contrite heart,
That I may learn to quell all selfish pride,
Bowing before Thee, see Thee as Thou art
And ’neath Thy sheltering presence safely hide.
Give me, O Lord, a gentle, loving heart,
That I may learn to be more tender, kind,
And with Thy healing touch, each wound and smart
With Christly bands of Love and Truth to bind.
-
Whither shall I go from Thy spirit?
Or whither shall I flee from Thy presence?
If I ascend up into heaven, Thou art there.
If I make my bed in hell, Thou art there.
If I take the wings of the morning and dwell in the
uttermost parts of the sea,
Even there shall Thy hand lead me and Thy right
hand shall hold me.
DESCANT
Grace unto you and peace from above.
Peace from on high, from my Spirit.
Be still and know I am God.
Be still and know that I am God.
Peace has come, Let it stay.
Peace has come to all today.

There’s a wideness in God’s mercy,
Like the wideness of the sea;
There’s a kindness in His justice,
Which is more than liberty.
For the love of God is broader
Than is seen by human mind,
And the heart of the Eternal
Is most wonderfully kind.
If our love were but more simple,
We should take Him at His word;
And our lives would be all sunshine
In the sweetness of our Lord.

O do not bar your mind
Against the light of good;
But open wide, let in the Word,
And Truth will be your food.
Truth will from error free
Your long enslaved mind,
And bring the light of liberty
Where it shall be enshrined.
Hid treasures it reveals
To all who know its power;
And all who will may light receive
In this most gracious hour.
Then open wide your heart
To Truth and Light and Love;
You then shall know your life is hid
With Christ in God above.

Brood o’er us with Thy shelt’ring wing, ’Neath which our spirits blend
Like brother birds, that soar and sing,
And on the same branch bend.
The arrow that doth wound the dove
Darts not from those who watch and love.
If thou the bending reed wouldst break
By thought or word unkind,
Pray that his spirit you partake,
Who loved and healed mankind:
Seek holy thoughts and heavenly strain,
That make men one in love remain.
Learn, too, that wisdom’s rod is given
For faith to kiss, and know;
That greetings glorious from high heaven,
Whence joys supernal flow,
Come from that Love, divinely near,
Which chastens pride and earth-born fear,
Through God, who gave that word of might
Which swelled creation’s lay: “Let there be light, and there was light.”
What chased the clouds away? ’Twas Love whose finger traced aloud
A bow of promise on the cloud.
Thou to whose power our hope we give,
Free us from human strife.
Fed by Thy love divine we live,
For Love alone is Life;
And life most sweet, as heart to heart
Speaks kindly when we meet and part.
Learn, too, that wisdom’s rod is given
For faith to kiss, and know;
That greetings glorious from high heaven,
Whence joys supernal flow,

Saw ye my Saviour? Heard ye the glad sound?
Felt ye the power of the Word?
’Twas the Truth that made us free,
And was found by you and me
In the life and the love of our Lord.
Mourner, it calls you,—“Come to my bosom,
Love wipes your tears all away,
And will lift the shade of gloom,
And for you make radiant room
Midst the glories of one endless day.”
Sinner, it calls you,—“Come to this fountain,
Cleanse the foul senses within;
’Tis the Spirit that makes pure,
That exalts thee, and will cure
All thy sorrow and sickness and sin.”
Strongest deliverer, friend of the friendless,
Life of all being divine:
Thou the Christ, and not the creed;
Thou the Truth in thought and deed;
Thou the water, the bread, and the wine.

Shepherd, show me how to go
O’er the hillside steep,
How to gather, how to sow,—
How to feed Thy sheep;
I will listen for Thy voice,
Lest my footsteps stray;
I will follow and rejoice
All the rugged way.
Thou wilt bind the stubborn will,
Wound the callous breast,
Make self-righteousness be still,
Break earth’s stupid rest.
Strangers on a barren shore,
Lab’ring long and lone,
We would enter by the door,
And Thou know’st Thine own;
So, when day grows dark and cold,
Tear or triumph harms,
Lead Thy lambkins to the fold,
Take them in Thine arms;
Feed the hungry, heal the heart,
Till the morning’s beam;
White as wool, ere they depart,
Shepherd, wash them clean.

The Prophet faced the poison in the pot today
Death seemed real until he heard Truth say "I am Life eternal, nothing can destroy
What I have created for eternal joy"
You are the great I AM, the only One
What looks impossible is just what's not real
Standing on the foundation that will never fail
You are the great I AM, and I am whole
What beliefs are binding you in chains of fear?
What illusions whisper that God's not here?
Time to know the truth of who you really are
Child of infinite Love, you've come so far
You are the great I AM, the only One
What seemed impossible was never real at all
Standing on Love's foundation that will never fail
You are the great I AM, and I am whole
I am whole, I am whole

Blessed are those who trust in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord.
They shall be like a tree planted by water, sending out its roots by the stream. It shall not fear when heat comes, its leaves shall stay green; in the year of drought it is not anxious, and it does not cease to bear fruit.A Samaritan woman came to draw water, and Jesus said to her, “Give me a drink.”
The Samaritan woman said to him, “How is it that you, a Jew, ask a drink of me, a woman of Samaria?”
Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God and who it is that is saying to you, ‘Give me a drink,’ you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water.”
The woman said to him, “Sir, you have no bucket, and the well is deep. Where do you get that living water? Are you greater than our ancestor Jacob, who gave us the well and with his sons and his flocks drank from it?”
Jesus said to her, “Everyone who drinks of this water will be thirsty again, but those who drink of the water that I will give them will never be thirsty.
The water that I will give will become in them a spring of water gushing up to eternal life.”

Jesus’ prayer for all his brethren:
Father, that they may be one,
Echoes down through all the ages,
Nor prayed he for these alone
But for all, that through all time
God’s will be done.
One the Mind and Life of all things,
For we live in God alone;
One the Love whose ever-presence
Blesses all and injures none.
Safe within this Love we find all
being one.
Day by day the understanding
Of our oneness shall increase,
Till among all men and nations
Warfare shall forever cease,
So God’s children all shall dwell
in joy and peace.Hymn 157

In the heat of the day by a well on the road,
A woman came carrying years of her load.
He saw her, knew her, turned her heart inside out—
And showed her what grace is really about.
Lift up your eyes, the time isn’t late—
The harvest is ready, the moment is great.
What you’ve been waiting for, aching to see—
Is already here, unfolding in thee.
No more delay, no need to strive—
Truth’s revelation is fully alive.
Twelve long years she bled with shame,
Outside the temple, no one to name.
But faith reached out, and love replied—
“You’re my daughter, healed, justified.”
Lift up your heart, the work is in place—
The Comforter comes with power and grace.
Your doubts aren’t your destiny, fear can’t decide—
Spirit is present, and healing’s inside.
The time isn’t later—it’s now, it’s here—
Love writes the future, and the vision is clear.
