Great God, Your Love Has Called Us
Author: Brian A. Wren, b. 1936 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Worship #358 (2006) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Topics: Human Family; Human Family First Line: Great God, your love has called us here Lyrics: 1 Great God, your love has called us here,
as we, by love, for love were made.
Your living likeness still we bear,
though marred, dishonored, disobeyed.
We come, with all our heart and mind
your call to hear, your love to find.
2 We come with self-inflicted pains
of broken trust and chosen wrong,
half-free, half-bound by inner chains,
by social forces swept along,
by pow'rs and systems close confined,
yet seeking hope for humankind.
3 Great God, in Christ you call our name
and then receive us as your own,
not through some merit, right, or claim,
but by your gracious love alone.
We strain to glimpse your mercy seat
and find you kneeling at our feet.
4 Then take the towel, and break the bread,
and humble us, and call us friends.
Suffer and serve till all are fed,
and show how grandly love intends
to work till all creation sings,
to fill all worlds, to crown all things.
5 Great God, in Christ you set us free
your life to live, your joy to share.
Give us your Spirit's liberty
to turn from guilt and dull despair,
and offer all that faith can do
while love is making all things new. Languages: English Tune Title: RYBURN
Great God, Your Love Has Called Us

to distant years in Palestine,
but saving, healing, here and now,
and touching ev'ry place and time.
3 In ev'ry insult, rift and war,
where color, scorn, or wealth divide,
Christ suffers still, yet loves the more,
and lives, where even hope has died.
4 Women and men, in age and youth,
can feel the Spirit, hear the call,
and find the way, the life, the truth,
revealed in Jesus, freed for all.
5 Christ is alive, and comes to bring
good news to this and ev'ry age,
till earth and sky and ocean ring
with joy, with justice, love, and praise. Languages: English Tune Title: TRURO

This fragile planet they conserve,
the homeland of the human race.

defend them with our children's blood.
But rains and winds and ocean tides
declare the truth; the world is one.

whose purpose is the common good,
who in their love all lands enclose,
whose world is all one neighborhood.

Where Cross the Crowded Ways of Life
Author: Frank Mason North Hymnal: Worship in Song #133 (1996) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Human Family Lyrics: 1 Where cross the crowded ways of life,
Where sound the cries of race and clan,
Above the noise of selfish strife,
We hear thy voice, O Son of man!
2 In haunts of wretchedness and need,
On shadowed thresholds dark with fears,
From paths where hide the lures of greed,
We catch the vision of thy tears.
3 The cup of water given for thee
Still holds the freshness of thy grace;
Yet long these multitudes to see
The sweet compassion of thy face.
4 O Teacher, from the mountain side,
Make haste to heal these hearts of pain;
Among these restless throngs abide,
O tread the city's streets again;
5 Till humankind shall learn thy love
And follow where thy feet have trod;
Till glorious from thy heaven above
Shall come the city of our God. Tune Title: GERMANY

Old now is earth, and none may count her days,
Yet thou, its child, whose head is crowned with flame
Still wilt not hear thine inner God proclaim,
"Turn back, O mortal, quit thy foolish ways."
2 Earth might be fair, and people glad and wise.
Age after age their tragic empires rise,
Built while they dream, and in that dreaming weep.
Would they but wake from out their haunted sleep,
Earth shall be fair, and people glad and wise.
3 Earth shall be fair, and all its people one,
Nor till that hour shall God's whole will be done!
Now, even now, once more from earth to sky
Peals forth in joy the old, undaunted cry,
"Earth shall be fair, and all its people one." Tune Title: OLD HUNDRED TWENTY-FOURTH
Turn Back, O Mortal

Los angeles no son enviados a cambiar
un mundo de dolor por un mundo de paz.
Me ha tocado a mi hacerlo realidad;
ayudame Señor hacer tu voluntad.

Sent by the Lord am I; my hand I will apply
in fellowship to build a peaceful loving world.
Sent by the Lord am I; my hand I will apply
in fellowship to build a peaceful loving world.
The angels cannot change a world of grief and pain,
where sorrows do not cease, into a world of peace.
The task is mine to do, to make it all come true;
God, help me to obey, to do your will this day.
