As scholar in Thy school,
Thou of Thy love hast named a friend—
O kindness wonderful!
2 Thou dwellest in unshadowed light,
All sin and shame above—
That Thou shouldst bear our sin and shame,
How can I tell such love?
3 Ah, did not He the heavenly throne
A little thing esteem,
And not unworthy for my sake
A mortal body deem?
4 So, Love itself in human form,
For love of me He came;
I cannot look upon His face
For shame, for bitter shame.
5 If there is aught of worth in me
It comes from Thee alone;
Then keep me safe, for so, O Lord,
Thou keepest but Thine own.
Amen. Tune Title: WIGTOWN

supplied by others' toil:
save us from making self our creed,
turn us towards each other's need.

creation's secret powers,

our children's peace and ours:
teach us the art of mastering

Isaiah the prophet has written of old
Author: Joy F. Patterson (b. 1931-) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #241 (2005) Meter: Irregular Topics: Penitence Lyrics: 1 Isaiah the prophet has written of old
how God's new creation shall come.
Instead of the thorn tree, the fir tree shall grow
the wolf shall lie down with the lamb, the lamb,

2 The mountains and hills shall break forth into song,
the peoples be led forth in peace:
the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of God
as the waters cover the sea, the sea,
as the waters cover the sea.
3 Yet nations still prey on the meek of the world,
and conflict turns parent from child.
Your people despoil all the sweetness of earth;
the brier and the thorn tree grow wild, grow wild,
the brier and the thorn tree grow wild.
4 God, bring to fruition your will for the earth,
that no one shall hurt or destroy,
when wisdom and justice shall reign in the land
and your people shall go forth in joy, in joy,
and your people shall go forth in joy.
