Why Is This Night Different?
Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Hymnal: Songs of Grace #6 (2009) Meter: 12.11.12.11 Topics: Lent and Holy Week First Line: "Why is this night different from all of the others?" Lyrics: “Why is this night different from all of the others?”
This night we remember how God set us free.
This night we remember our fathers and mothers
Whom God reached out to save from harsh slavery.
We eat bitter herbs to recall how they suffered;
The salt water tells of their tears and their cries.
The lamb is the sacrifice each household offered;
The matzo is the bread with no time to rise.
Haroseth reminds how the people long labored
In making the mortar; what weary, worn slaves!
And yet in its sweetness is hope ever-savored,
And in each cup of wine, the promise: God saves!
Through symbols we share here, your story is spoken;
God, help us to know that it’s our story, too!
For as we are saved we are sent to the broken,
Till all know peace and joy, till all are made new.
Scripture: Exodus 5:12-15 Languages: English Tune Title: KREMSER

O God, Be Merciful to Me
Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Hymnal: Songs of Grace #7a (2009) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Lent and Holy Week Lyrics: O God, be merciful to me
Because your love is strong;
Now wash me from iniquity
And cleanse me from all wrong.
These words are old, but still they live
Within our hearts today.
We cry to you: “O God, forgive!”
And “Wash our sins away!”
My sin has kept me far from you;
Your wrath is justified.
Why is it, Lord? The things I do
Have crushed my bones inside!
I try to make it on my own
As if I’m all I need,
Until I find I’m all alone,
Wrapped up in pride and greed.
Yet this is not the final word,
For you forgive our sin!
When we return to you, O Lord,
You give us joy again.
Scripture: Psalm 51 Languages: English Tune Title: CRIMOND

For back in Egypt you were slaves;
Then by my hand I set you free.
Now keep my law. Remember me.

Whene’er you share this meal of mine.
I gave my life to set you free.
With thanks and praise, remember me.
Remember me in all you do,
For I’m alive! I walk with you.
I was, I am, and I shall be.
O church I love, remember me.

Your Spirit gives us memory.
Now send us out that we may share
Your love’s great story everywhere.

Our Lord, You Were Sent
Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Hymnal: Songs of Grace #13 (2009) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Topics: Lent and Holy Week First Line: Our Lord, You were seent to a place wild and vast Lyrics: Our Lord, you were sent to a place wild and vast
To ponder your mission, to pray and to fast;
Then hungry and weary, you faced night and day
The subtle temptations to turn from God’s way.
How could it be wrong to want bread on the shelf?
To seek, in one’s serving, to first serve one’s self?
But by God’s own word you remained ever sure:
It’s only in God that our lives are secure.
How could it be wrong to step out and to dare,
To prove with great drama the depths of God’s care?
But you knew God’s word, true since all time began:
It’s wrong to expect God to work by our plan.
How could it be wrong to just once bow the knee,
To shake hands with sin to achieve victory?
Yet you made it clear that no matter the cost:
Your path was obedience, your way was the cross.
Our Lord, in your struggle you chose to obey;
God’s word filled your heart and you trusted God’s way.
Now risen, you save us from sins that destroy;
You give us your Spirit, your peace and your joy.

and melt mine eyes to tears. (refrain)

’tis all that I can do. (refrain) Languages: English Tune Title: [Alas! And did my Savior bleed]

And mocked until He died.

To share the agony,
But one of them cried out to Him,
"O Lord, remember me.”

Will the Lord remember me,
When I am called to go?
When I have crossed death’s chilly sea,
Will He His love there show?
O yes, He heard my feeble cries,
From bondage set me free.
And when I reach the pearly gates
He will remember me.
2 O what a shame to kill Him
There on that rugged cross;
But such a death was needed
To rescue all the lost.
His blood was made a ransom
To set the captives free,
I know that I’m included,
and He will remember me. [Refrain]
3 At His dear feet I’m kneeling.
My sins I now confess;
I bow in deep repentance,
My soul He’ll surely bless.
My blinded eyes He opens
So that the light I see,
And when I reach the pearly gates,
He will remember me. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [When on the cross of Calv'ry]
