Chapel during Lent

(finishing: 20 March)

LISTENING TO THE WISDOM OF

THE DESERT is a modern Lenten

program for group or personal study.

The theme from the first Sunday gospel

of Lent, Jesus’ 40 days in the desert.

Through five weeks we explore this

theme using prayer, biblical reflection

and modern stories.

Focus questions are:

What is the desert in our own lives?

What can we learn from it?

Opening Hymn

New every morning is the love

our wakening and uprising prove;

through sleep and darkness safely brought,

restored to life and power and thought.

New mercies, each returning day,

hover around us while we pray;

new perils past, new sins forgiven,

new thoughts of God, new hopes of heaven.

If on our daily course our mind

be set to hallow all we find,

new treasures still, of countless price,

God will provide for sacrifice.

Only, O Lord, in thy dear love

fit us for perfect rest above;

and help us, this and every day,

to live more nearly as we pray.

John Keble 1792-1866 CP6

St Saviour’s Cathedral Hymns 25 February 2018

Gradual Hymn

Christ triumphant, ever reigning,

Saviour, Master, King!

Lord of heaven, our life

sustaining,

hear us as we sing:

Yours the glory and the crown,

the high renown, the eternal

name!

Suffering servant, scorned,

ill-treated,

victim crucified!

death is though the cross

defeated,

sinners justified:

Yours the glory…

Priestly king, enthroned for ever

high in heaven above!

sin and death and hell shall never

stifle hymns of love:

Yours the glory…

Offertory Hymn

At the name of Jesus

every knee shall bow,

every tongue confess him

King of Glory now:

this the Father’s pleasure

that we call him Lord,

who from the beginning

was the mighty Word.

Humbled for a season

to receive a name

from the lips of sinners

unto whom he came,

faithfully he bore it

spotless to the last,

brought it back victorious

when from death he passed.

In your hearts enthrone him,

there let him make new

all that is not holy,

all that is not true.

He is God the Saviour,

he is Christ the Lord,

ever to be worshipped,

trusted and adored.

When this same Lord Jesus

shall appear again

in his Father’s glory,

there with him to reign,

then may we adore him,

all before him bow,

as our hearts confess him

King of Glory now.

St Saviour’s Cathedral Hymns 25 February 2018

Final Hymn

'Take up your cross,' the Saviour said,

'if you would my disciple be;

take up your cross with willing heart

and humbly follow after me.'

Take up your cross; let not its weight

fill your weak spirit with alarm;

his strength shall bear your spirit up

and brace your heart and nerve your arm.

Take up your cross, nor heed the shame,

and let your foolish pride be still:

your Lord refused not even to die

upon a cross, on Calvary's hill.

Take up your cross, then, in his strength

and calmly every danger brave;

it guides you to a better home

and leads to victory o'er the grave.

Take up your cross and follow Christ,

nor think till death to lay it down;

for only he who bears the cross

may hope to wear the glorious crown.

Psalm 22.24-32

Chant: Camidge, Matthew (1758-1844)

24 O praise the Lord, all | you that | fear him:

hold him in honour, O seed of Jacob, and let the seed of | Isra . el

| stand in | awe of him.

25 For he has not despised nor abhorred the poor man | in his | misery:

nor did he hide his face from him, but | heard him | when he |

cried.

26 From you springs my praise in the great | congre- | gation:

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 (Unison) How can those who sleep in the earth | do him | homage:

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

31 But he has saved my life | for him- | self:

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

32 This shall be told of my Lord to a future | gene- | ration:

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

| he has | done it.
