Verse 1

When the church of Jesus
Shuts its outer door
Lest the roar of traffic
Drown the voice of prayer
May our prayers Lord
Make us ten times more aware
That the world we banish
Is our Christian care

Verse 2

If our hearts are lifted
Where devotion soars
High above this hungry
Suffering world of ours
Lest our hymns should drug us
To forget its needs
Forge our Christian worship
Into Christian deeds

Verse 3

Lest the gifts we offer
Money talents time
Serve to salve our conscience
To our secret shame
Lord reprove
Inspire us by the way You give
Teach us dying Savior
How true Christians live

Composer: Ralph Vaughan Williams

Includes Wide Format PowerPoint file!

Updated Format! Beginning in November of 2016, we changed the way we formatted our PowerPoint files. The font is larger and the staff lines are bolder, making the songs easier to read from a greater distance, including smaller screens/monitors in the rear of the sanctuary.

All songs digitized previous to that date are in the "older" format.
