God of the Prophets
Author: Denis Wortman Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #429 (1985) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: Prophets First Line: God of the prophets, bless the prophets' heirs Lyrics: 1 God of the prophets, bless the prophets' heirs;
Elijah's mantle o'er Elisha cast;
each age in turn for solemn tasks prepares;
make each one nobler, stronger than the last.
2 Anoint them prophets! make their ears attend
to thy divinest speech; their hearts awake
to human need; their lips make eloquent
right to enthrone and ev'ry evil break.
3 Anoint them priests! strong intercessors they
for pardon and for charity and peace!
O might with them the world, though gone astray,
pass into Christ'spure life of sacrifice.
4 Anoint them rulers, gentle rulers, Lord!
Anoint them with the Spirit of thy Son:
theirs not a jeweled crown, a blood-stained sword;
theirs, by strong love, for Christ a kingdom won.
5 Send them, apostles, heralds of thy cross;
forth may they go to tell all realms thy grace:
inspired of thee, may they count all but loss,
and stand at last with joy before thy face.

Ever and ever the keys he will hold.
Faithful and true, he will enter his kingdom,
Crowned in the midst of the prophets of old.

upon the mountain crest,
while all the sleeping valleys
in silent darkness rest.
From peak to peak it flashes,
it laughs along the sky,
till glory of the sunlight
on all the land shall lie.
2 Above the generations
the lonely prophets rise,
while truth flares as the daystar
within their glowing eyes;
and other eyes, beholding,
are kindled from that flame;
and dawn becomes the morning,
when prophets love proclaim.
3 The soul has lifted moments,
above the drift of days,
when life’s great meaning breaketh
in sunrise on our ways.
Behold the radiant token
of faith above all fear;
night shall release its splendor
that morning shall appear. Languages: English Tune Title: MEIRIONYDD
