In Your Heritage the Nations
Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Gray) #79 (1987) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Society/Social Concerns; Society/Social Concerns Lyrics: 1 In your heritage the nations
now, O God, rebellious stand;
they defile your holy temple,
they destroy your chosen land.
Ruthless, they have slain your servants,
they have caused your saints to mourn;
in the sight of all about us
we endure reproach and scorn.
2 O how long against your people
will your anger burn, O LORD?
On your enemies, the heathen,
let your anger, LORD, be poured.
Smite the kingdoms that defy you,
that do not call on your name.
They have long devoured your people
and destroyed your land with flame.
3 O remember not against us
evil by our fathers done.
LORD, deliver in your mercy;
near to ruin we have come.
Help us, God of our salvation,
for the glory of your name.
Why should nations shout defiance?
Take away our sin and shame.
4 Let the nations know our Savior
will avenge his servants slain.
Loose the prisoner, save the dying,
all your enemies restrain.
Then your flock, your chosen people,
songs of thankfulness will raise;
and, to every generation,
we will sing your glorious praise.

Scorn the Christ, assail his ways!
From the fears that long have bound us
Free our hearts to faith and praise.

Bend our pride to your control;
Shame our wanton, selfish gladness,
Rich in things and poor in soul.

Lest we miss your kingdom’s goal,
Lest we miss your kingdom’s goal.

To the evils we deplore;
Let the gift of your salvation
Be our glory evermore.

Serving you whom we adore,
Serving you whom we adore. Languages: English Tune Title: CWM RHONDDA

Lord of lords and King of kings,
With your living fire of judgment
Purge this land of bitter things;
Solace all its wide dominion
With the healing of your wings.

For the hour that brings release;
And the city's crowded clangor
Cries aloud for sin to cease;
And the homesteads and the woodlands
Plead in silence for their peace.
3 Crown, O God, thine own endeavor;
Cleave our darkness with your sword;
Feed the faint and hungry peoples
With the richness of your Word;
Cleanse the body of this nation
Through the glory of the Lord. Languages: English Tune Title: RHUDDLAN

Lord of Glory, You Have Bought Us
Author: Eliza S. Alderson, 1818-1889 Hymnal: Lutheran Book of Worship #424 (1978) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Society; Society Lyrics: 1 Lord of glory, you have bought us
With your life-blood as the price,
Never grudging for the lost ones
That tremendous sacrifice;
And with that have freely given
Blessings countless as the sand
To the unthankful and the evil
With your own unsparing hand.
2 Grant us hearts, dear Lord, to give you
Gladly, freely, of your own.
With the sunshine of your goodness
Melt our thankless hearts of stone
Till our cold and selfish natures,
Warmed by you, at length believe
That more happy and more blessed
'Tis to give than to receive.
3 Wondrous honor you have given
To our humblest charity
In your own mysterious sentence,
"You have done it all to me."
Can it be, O gracious Master,
That you deign for alms to sue,
Saying by your poor and needy,
"Give as I have giv'n to you"?
4 Yes, the sorrow and the suff'rings
Which on ev'ry hand we view
Channels are for gifts and off'rings
Due by solemn right to you;
Right of which we may not rob you,
Debt we may not choose but pay,
Lest that face of love and pity
Turn from us another day.
4 Lord of glory, you have bought us
With Your life-blood as the price,
Never grudging for the lost ones
That tremendous sacrifice.
Give us faith to trust you boldly,
Hope, to stay our souls on you:
But, oh, best of all your graces,
With your love our love renew. Languages: English Tune Title: HYFRYDOL
Lord of Glory, You Have Bought Us
