God of Grace and God of Glory
Author: Harry Emerson Fosdick, 1878-1969 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #115 (1993) Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.4.7.7 Topics: Peace and War Lyrics: 1 God of grace and God of glory,
on thy people pour thy power;
crown thine ancient church's story;
bring its bud to glorious flower.
Grant us wisdom, grant us courage,
for the facing of this hour,
for the facing of this hour.
2 Lo, the clouds of evil 'round us
hide thy brightness from our gaze;
from the fears that long have bound us,
free our hearts to faith and praise.
Grant us wisdom, grant us courage,
for the living of these days,
for the living of these days.
3 Cure thy children's warring madness;
bend our pride to thy control;
shame our wanton selfish gladness,
rich in goods and poor in soul.
Grant us wisdom, grant us courage,
make thy peace our daily goal,
make thy peace our daily goal.
4 Fill us with a living vision,
heal our wounds hat we may be
bound as one beyond division
in the struggle to be free.
Grant us wisdom, grant us courage,
ears to hear and eyes to see,
ears to hear and eyes to see. Languages: English Tune Title: CWM RHONDDA

Now Is the Time Approaching
Author: Jane Laurie Borthwick, 1813-1897 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #144 (1993) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Peace and War Lyrics: 1 Now is the time approaching,
by prophets long foretold,
when all shall dwell together,
secure and manifold.
Let war be learned no longer,
let strife and tumult cease,
all earth a blessed garden
and God the god of peace.
2 Let all that now divides us
remove and pass away,
like shadows of the morning
before the blaze of day.
Let all that now unites us
more sweet and lasting prove,
a closer bond of union,
in a blessed land of love.
3 O long-expected dawning,
come with your cheering ray!
Yet shall the promise beckon
and lead us not astray.
O sweet anticipation!
It cheers the watchers on
to pray, and hope, and labor,
till all our work is done.

designs bearing chaos, extinction of life,
all energy wasted on weapons of death.

replenished and tended, this good planet earth,
preserving the future and wonder of birth. Languages: English Tune Title: UPPSALA

is calling us to humanhood. Languages: English Tune Title: VOM HIMMEL HOCH

Not in Vain the Distance Beacons
Author: Alfred Lord Tennyson, 1809-1892 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #143 (1993) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Peace and War Lyrics: 1 Not in vain the distance beacons.
Forward, forward let us range.
Let the great world spin forever
down the ringing grooves of change;
through the shadow of the globe
we sweep ahead to heights sublime,
we, the heirs of all the ages,
in the foremost files of time.
2 Oh, we see the crescent promise
of that spirit has not set;
ancient founts of inspiration
well through all our fancies yet;
and we doubt not through the ages
one increasing purpose runs,
and the thoughts of all are widened
with the process of the suns.
3 Yea, we dip into the future,
far as human eye can see,
see the vision of the world,
and all the wonder that shall be,
hear the war-drum throb no longer,
see the battle flags all furled,
in the parliament of freedom,
federation of the world. Languages: English Tune Title: HYMN TO JOY

O Young and Fearless Prophet
Author: S. Ralph Harlow, 1885-1972 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #276 (1993) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Peace and War Lyrics: 1 O young and fearless Prophet
of ancient Galilee:
your life is still a summons
to serve humanity,
to make our thoughts and actions
less prone to please the crowd,
to stand with humble courage
for truth with hearts unbowed.
2 O help us stand unswerving
against war's bloody way,
where hate and lust and falsehood
hold back your holy sway;
forbid false love of country,
that turns us from your call
who lifts above the nation
the neighborhood of all.
3 Create in us the splendor
that dawns when hearts are kind,
that knows not race nor station
as bound'ries of the mind;
that learns to value beauty,
in heart, or mind, or soul,
and longs to see God's children
as sacred, perfect, whole.
4 Stir up in us a protest
against unneeded wealth;
for some go starved and hungry
who plead for work and health.
Once more give us your challenge
above our noisy day,
and come to lead us forward
along your holy way.

Again, as Evening's Shadow Falls
Author: Samuel Longfellow, 1819-1892 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #48 (1993) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Peace and War Lyrics: 1 Again, as evening's shadow falls,
we gather in these hallowed walls;
and vesper hymn and vesper prayer
rise mingling on the holy air.
2 May struggling hearts that seek release
here find the rest of God's own peace:
and, strengthened here by hymn and prayer,
lay down the burden and the care.
3 Life's tumult we must meet again;
we cannot at the shrine remain;
but in the spirit's secret cell
may hymn and prayer forever dwell.
