Now Thank We All Our God
Author: Martin Rinckart; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: With Heart and Voice #122 (1989) Meter: 6.7.6.7.6.6.6.6 Topics: The Church in the World Lyrics: 1 Now thank we all our God
with heart and hands and voices,
who wondrous things has done,
in whom his world rejoices;
who from our mothers' arms
has blessed us on our way
with countless gifts of love,
and still is ours today.
2 O may this bounteous God
through all our life be near us,
with ever joyful hearts
and blessed peace to cheer us,
to keep us in his grace,
and guide us when perplexed,
and free us from all ills
of this world in the next.
3 All praise and thanks to God
the Father now be given,
the Son and Spirit blest,
who reign in highest heaven
the one eternal God,
whom heaven and earth adore;
for thus it was, is now,
and shall be evermore.

Not for Tongues of Heaven's Angels
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith Hymnal: Voices United #604 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6 Topics: Church in the World Discipleship: Love in Action Lyrics: 1 Not for tongues of heaven's angels,
not for wisdom to discern,
not for faith that conquers mountains;
for this better gift we yearn:
may love be ours, O Lord.
2 Love is humble, love is gentle,
love is tender, true, and kind;
love is gracious, ever patient,
generous of heart and mind:
may love be ours, O Lord.
3 Never jealous, never selfish,
love will not rejoice in wrong;
never boastful nor resentful,
love believes and suffers long:
may love be ours, O Lord.
4 In the day this world is fading
faith and hope will play their part;
but when Christ is seen in glory
love shall reign in every heart:
may love be ours, O Lord. Languages: English Tune Title: BRIDEGROOM

O God of Every Nation
Author: William Watkins Reid, Jr. Hymnal: Voices United #677 (1996) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: The Church in the World Commitment: Peace and Justice Lyrics: 1 O God of every nation,
of every race and land,
redeem the whole creation
with your almighty hand;
where hate and fear divide us
and bitter threats are hurled,
in love and mercy guide us
and heal our strife-torn world.
2 From search for wealth and power
and scorn of truth and right,
from trust in bombs that shower
destruction through the night,
from pride of race and nation
and blindness to your way,
deliver every nation,
eternal God, we pray.
3 Give strength to those who labour
that all may find release
from fear of rattling sabre,
from dread of war's increase;
when hope and courage falter,
your still small voice be heard:
with faith that none can alter,
your servants undergird.
4 Keep bright in us the vision
of days when war shall cease,
when hatred and division
give way to love and peace,
till dawns the morning glorious
when peace on earth shall reign
and Christ shall rule victorious
o'er all the world's domain. Tune Title: LLANGLOFFAN
O God of Every Nation
Isaiah the Prophet Has Written of Old
Author: Joy F. Patterson Hymnal: Voices United #680 (1996) Meter: 11.8.11.8 D Topics: The Church in the World Commitment: Peace and Justice 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 mountains and hills shall break forth into song,
the peoples be led forth in peace,
for the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of God
as the waters cover the sea.
2 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.
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. Languages: English Tune Title: SAMANTHRA

Built on the Rock
Author: Nikolai F. S. Grundtvig; Carl Döving Hymnal: With Heart and Voice #133 (1989) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8.8 Topics: The Church in the World First Line: Built on the Rock, the church shall stand Lyrics: 1 Built on the Rock, the church shall stand
even when steeples are falling;
Christ builds his church in every land;
bells still are chiming and calling,
calling the young and old to rest,
calling the souls of those distressed,
longing for life everlasting.
2 Not in a temple made with hands
God the Almighty is dwelling;
high in the heavens his temple stands,
all earthly temples excelling.
Yet he who dwells in heaven above
chooses to live with us in love,
making our bodies his temple.
3 We are God's house of living stones,
built for his own habitation;
he fills our hearts, his humble thrones,
granting us life and salvation.
Yet to this place, an earthly frame,
we come with thanks to praise his name;
God grants his people true blessing.
