Psalm 124
Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #84 (2005) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10 Topics: Remembrance Sunday First Line: Now Israel may say, and that truly, Lyrics: 1 Now Israel may say, and that truly,
if that the Lord had not our cause maintained;
if that the Lord had not our right sustained,
when cruel men against us furiously
rose up in wrath, to make of us their prey;
2 Then certainly they had devoured us all,
and swallowed quick, for aught that we could deem;
such was their rage, as we might well esteem.
And as fierce floods before them all things drown,
so had they brought our soul to death quite down.
3 The raging streams, with their proud swelling waves,
had then our soul o'erwhelmèd in the deep.
But blest be God, who doth us safely keep,
and hath not given us for a living prey
unto their teeth, and bloody cruelty.
4 Even as a bird out of the fowler's snare
escapes away, so is our soul set free:
broke are their nets, and thus escapèd we.
Therefore our help is in the Lord's great name,
who heaven and earth by his great power did frame. Scripture: Psalm 124 Languages: English Tune Title: OLD 124TH

God the Omnipotent! King who ordainest
Author: Henry Fothergill Chorley (1808-1872); John Ellerton (1826-1893) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #266 (2005) Meter: 11.10.11.9 Topics: Remembrance Sunday Lyrics: 1 God the Omnipotent! King who ordainest
great winds thy clarions, lightnings thy sword:
show forth thy pity on high where thou reignest:
give to us peace in our time, O Lord.
2 God the All-merciful! earth hath forsaken
meekness and mercy, and slighted thy word;
bid not thy wrath in its terrors awaken;
give to us peace in our time, O Lord.
3 God, the All-righteous One! we have defied thee;
yet to eternity standeth thy word;
falsehood and wrong shall not tarry beside thee;
give to us peace in our time, O Lord.
4 God the All-wise! by the fire of thy chastening,
earth shall to freedom and truth be restored;
through the thick darkness thy Kingdom is hastening;
thou wilt give peace in thy time, O Lord.
5 So shall thy children, with thankful devotion,
praise him who saved them from peril and sword,
singing in chorus, from ocean to ocean,
peace to the nations, and praise to the Lord. Scripture: 1 Kings 8:30 Languages: English Tune Title: RUSSIA

Judge eternal, throned in splendour
Author: Henry Scott Holland, 1847-1918 Hymnal: Common Praise #356 (2000) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Topics: Remembrance Sunday Lyrics: 1 Judge eternal, throned in splendour,
Lord of lords and King of kings,
with thy living fire of judgment
purge this land of bitter things;
solace all its wide dominion
with the healing of thy wings.
2 Still the weary folk are pining
for the hour that brings release:
and the city’s crowded clangour
cries aloud for sin to cease;
and the homesteads and the woodlands
plead in silence for their peace.
3 Crown, O Lord, thine own endeavor;
cleave our darkness with thy sword;
cheer the faint and feed the hungry
with the richness of thy word;
cleanse the body of this nation
through the glory of the Lord.
Scripture: 2 Samuel 23:3-4 Languages: English Tune Title: RHUDDLAN

O God of earth and altar
Author: G. K. Chesterton, 1874-1936 Hymnal: Common Praise #358 (2000) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Topics: Remembrance Sunday Lyrics: 1 O God of earth and altar,
bow down and hear our cry,
our earthly rulers falter,
our people drift and die;
the walls of gold entomb us,
the swords of scorn divide,
take not thy thunder from us,
but take away our pride.
2 From all that terror teaches,
from lies of tongue and pen,
from all the easy speeches
that comfort cruel men,
from sale and profanation
of honour and the sword,
from sleep and from damnation,
deliver us, good Lord!
3 Tie in a living tether
the prince and priest and thrall,
bind all our lives together,
smite us and save us all;
in ire and exultation
aflame with faith, and free,
lift up a living nation,
a single sword to thee. Scripture: 1 Samuel 15:10-11 Languages: English Tune Title: KING'S LYNN
O God of earth and altar
I vow to thee, my country, all earthy things above
Author: Cecil Arthur Spring-Rice, 1859-1918 Hymnal: New English Praise #620 (2006) Meter: 13.13.13.13.13.13 Topics: Times and Seasons Remembrance Sunday Lyrics: 1 I vow to thee, my country, all earthly things above,
Entire and whole and perfect, the service of my love:
The love that asks no question, the love that stands the test,
That lays upon the altar the dearest and the best;
The love that never falters, the love that pays the price,
The love that makes undaunted the final sacrifice.
2 And there’s another country, I’ve heard of long ago,
Most dear to them that love her, most great to them that know;
We may not count her armies, we may not see her King;
Her fortress is a faithful heart, her pride is suffering;
And soul by soul and silently her shining bounds increase,
And her ways are ways of gentleness and all her paths are peace. Languages: English Tune Title: THAXTED
