1 Corinthians 13. 1-13 Luke 4. 21-30

A sense of connection to the soil that

we were born and raised on will

always be a part of our identity, even

more so a sense of connection with

those who we are descended from. We

in Australia are extremely lucky to

have such diverse backgrounds to be

appreciated in such a beautiful

country. This being said, we must

always remember that ultimately this

country is not our home; our identity

must not be ultimately bound up in

this place but in Jesus Christ and the

kingdom of God.

Opening Hymn

Where wide sky rolls down and touches red sand,

where sun turns to gold the grass of the land,

let spinifex, mulga and waterhole tell

their joy in the One who made everything well.

Where rain-forest calm meets reef, tide and storm,

where green things grow lush and oceans are warm,

let every sea-creature and tropical bird

exult in the light of the life-giving Word.

Where red gum and creek cross hillside and plain,

where cool tree-ferns rise to welcome the rain,

let bushland, farm, mountain-top, all of their days

delight in the Spirit who formed them for praise.

Now, people of faith, come gather around

with songs to be shared, for blessings abound!

Australians, whatever your culture or race,

come, lift up your hearts to the Giver of grace.

St Saviour’s Cathedral Hymns 27 January 2019

Offertory Hymn

Here in this place new light is streaming,

now is the darkness vanished away,

see, in this space, our fears and our dreamings,

brought here to you in the light of this day.

Gather us in, the lost and forsaken;

gather us in, the blind and the lame;

call to us now, and we shall awaken,

we shall arise at the sound of our name.

We are the young, our lives are a mystery;

we are the old, who yearn for your face;

we have been sung throughout all of history,

called to be light to the whole human race.

Gather us in, the rich and the haughty;

gather us in, the proud and the strong;

give us a heart, so meek and so lowly,

give us the courage to enter the song.

Here we will take of the wine and the water,

here we will take the bread of new birth,

here you shall call your sons and your

daughters,

call us anew to be salt of the earth.

Give us to drink the wine of compassion,

give us to eat the bread that is you;

nourish us well and teach us to fashion

lives that are holy and hearts that are true.

Not in the dark of buildings confining,

not in some heaven light years away,

but here in this space, the new light is shining,

now is the kingdom, now is the day.

Gather us in, and hold us forever,

gather us in and make us your own;

gather us in, all peoples together,

fire of love in our flesh and our bone.

Marty Haugen 1950 –

Gradual Hymn

Lord of earth and all creation,

let your love possess our land:

wealth, and freedom, far horizons,

mountain, forest, shining sand:

may we share, in faith and friendship,

gifts unmeasured from your hand.

People of the ancient Dreamtime,

they who found this country first,

ask with those, the later comers,

will our dream be blessed or cursed?

Grant us, Lord, new birth, new living,

hope for which our children thirst.

Lord, life-giving healing Spirit,

on our hurts your mercy shower;

lead us by your inward dwelling,

guiding, guarding, every hour.

Bless and keep our land Australia:

in your will her peace and power.

St Saviour’s Cathedral Hymns 27 January 2019

Final Hymn

Refrain All things bright and beautiful, all creatures great and small, all things wise and wonderful— the Lord God made them all.

The wildflowers in their beauty, the mountain ranges tall, the billabongs and rivers, and friendly birds that call,

Refrain The cold wind in the winter, the bright, life-giving sun, the ripe fruits in the garden— he made them everyone.

Refrain The coloured walls of gorges, the gum trees green and tall, the rocks, and pools, and palm trees, the sparkling waterfall,

Refrain The many-coloured corals, the creatures of the sea, of bushland, field or desert, on farms, or roaming free,

Refrain He gave us eyes to see them, and lips that we might tell how great is God Almighty who has made all things well.

Psalm 33.12-21

Chant: Jones, John (1728-1796)

12 Blessed is that nation whose God | is the | Lord:

the people he chose to | be his | own pos | session.

13 The Lord looks down from heaven and surveys all the | children of | Adam:

he considers from his dwelling-place all the in | habi. tants |

of the earth;

14 He who fashioned the hearts | of them | all:

and comprehends | all | that they | do.

15 A king is not saved by a | mighty | army:

nor is a warrior de | livered | by much | strength;

16 A horse is a vain hope as | a de | liverer:

nor can he rescue any | by his | great | power.

17 But the eye of the Lord is on | those that | fear him:

on those that trust in | his un | failing | love,

18 To deliver | them from | death:

and to feed them | in the | time of | dearth.

19 We have waited eagerly | for the | Lord:

for he is our | help and | our | shield.

20 Surely our hearts shall re | joice in | him:

for we have trusted | in his | holy | name.

21 Let your merciful kindness be u | pon us, . O | Lord:

even as our | hope is | in | you.
