Rêverie by Louis Vierne
Evening Prayer by Henry Smart
Hymn 109
Maria Louise Baum, words
Attrib. to Mozart, arr. by H. P. Main, music
Here, O God, Thy healing presence
Lifts our thoughts from self and sin,
Fills with light their hidden places,
When Thy love is welcomed in.
Here Thy tender sweet persuasions
Turn us home to heavenly ways,
While our hearts, unsealed, adoring,
Pour the fragrance of Thy praise.
Reverent lives unveil Thy beauty,
Faithful witness bear of Thee;
Binding up the broken-hearted,
We reflect Thy radiancy.
So may deeper consecration
Show Thee forth in healing’s sign,
Till through joyful self-surrender
We in Love’s pure likeness shine.
Readings
Readings from the Bible, and correlative passages from Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures.
Prayer
Silent Prayer, followed by the audible repetition of the Lord's Prayer, its spiritual interpretation being omitted.
Hymn 237
Fay Linn, words
14th Century Carol, music
O may we be still and seek Him,
Seek with consecration whole,
Listening thus to hear the message,
Far from sense and hid in Soul.
He hath promised we shall find Him,
Love divine its promise keeps;
God is watching with the watchful,
God is Life that never sleeps.
If we pray to Him in secret,
Lift to Him the heart’s desire,
We shall find our earthly longings
All made pure by Love’s pure fire.
Then upon the precious metal
God’s own image will appear,
Faithfully to Him reflected,
One with Him forever near.

Hymn 579
Frances R. Havergal, adapt., alt., words
Fenella Bennetts, music
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.
