HYMNS FOR SUNDAY-AUG 31, 2025

HYMN 433
A new commandment I give unto you:
That you love one another as I have loved you,
That you love one another as I have loved you.
By this the world will know that you are my disciples,
If you have love one for another.
By this the world will know that you are my disciples,
If you have love one for another.

DESCANT
A new commandment I give unto you:
That you love one another as I have loved you,
That you love one another as I have loved you.
By this all will know you are mine,
If you have love for each other.
(Christian Science Hymnal, No. 433:1, 2)

HYMN 12 
Arise ye people, take your stand,
Cast out your idols from the land,
Above all doctrine, form or creed
Is found the Truth that meets your need.
Christ’s promise stands: they that believe
His works shall do, his power receive.

Go forward then, and as ye preach
So let your works confirm your speech,
And prove to all with following sign
The Word of God is power divine.
In love and healing ministry
Show forth the Truth that makes men free.

O Father-Mother God, whose plan
Hath given dominion unto man,
In Thine own image we may see
Man pure and upright, whole and free.
And ever through our work shall shine
That light whose glory, Lord, is Thine.
(Christian Science Hymnal, No. 12:1–3)


SOLO:
The words of this hymn were written
by Mary Baker Eddy in her poem,
"COMMUNION HYMN". 
For those who like to silently follow
along with the words, turn to the
GRAY Hymnal,  #571. 

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.
(Christian Science Hymnal, No. 571:1–4)

HYMN #117
Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty,
Early in the morning our song shall rise to Thee.
Holy, Holy, Holy, merciful and mighty,
Which wert, and art, and evermore shalt be.

Holy, Holy, Holy, darkness cannot hide Thee,
Though the eyes of sinful men Thy glory cannot see.
Thou alone art holy, there is none beside Thee,
Perfect in power, in love and purity.

Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty,
All Thy works shall praise Thy name in earth,
and sky and sea;
Holy, Holy, Holy, merciful and mighty,
Which wert, and art, and evermore shalt be.
(Christian Science Hymnal, No. 117:1–3)
