Let there be wisdom on the earth!
Let broad humanity have birth!
Let there be deeds instead of boasts.

the calm that endeth strain and strife.
Make us your ministers of life.
Drive out the urge to curse and kill.

to see each other’s good, our own,
to joy and suffer not alone:
the love that casts aside all fear.
4 Let woe and waste of warfare cease,
that useful labor yet may build
its homes with love and laughter filled!
God, give your wayward children peace! Scripture: Psalm 43:3 Tune Title: MISSIONARY CHANT

will our world order
change in a day,

fearless and faithful,
small paper lanterns,
lighting the way. [Refrain]

bonding us gladly
one to the other,
till our world changes,
facing the cross. [Refrain] Scripture: Psalm 92:1-2 Tune Title: FRESH AS THE MORNING

Lord, Who Left the Highest Heaven
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #692 (1995) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Topics: Peace and Justice Lyrics: 1 Lord, who left the highest heaven
for a homeless human birth
and, a child within a stable,
came to share the life of earth -
with your grace and mercy bless
all who suffer homelessness.
2 Lord, who sought by cloak of darkness
refuge under foreign skies
from the swords of Herod's soldiers,
ravaged homes and parents' cries -
may your grace and mercy rest
on the homeless and oppressed.
3 Lord, who lived secure and settled,
safe within the Father's plan,
and in wisdom, stature, favor
growing up from boy to man -
with your grace and mercy bless
all who strive for holiness.
4 Lord, who leaving home and kindred,
followed still as duty led,
sky the roof and earth the pillow
for the Prince of glory's head -
with your grace and mercy bless
sacrifice for righteousness.
5 Lord, who in your cross and passion
hung beneath a darkened sky,
yet whose thoughts were for your mother,
and a thief condemned to die -
may your grace and mercy rest
on the helpless and distressed.
6 Lord, who rose to life triumphant
with our whole salvation won,
risen, glorified, ascended,
all the Father's purpose done -
may your grace, all conflict past,
bring your children home at last. Scripture: Philippians 2:5-11 Languages: English Tune Title: EDEN CHURCH
Lord, Who Left the Highest Heaven
