A Hymn of Human Rights
Author: Fred Kaan Hymnal: Hymns from the Four Winds #54 (1983) Topics: The Christian Life Justice and Human Rights First Line: For the healing of the nations Lyrics: 1 For the healing of the nations,
Lord, we pray with one accord;
For a just and equal sharing
Of the things that earth affords.
To a life of love in action
Help us rise and pledge our word.
To a life of love in action
Help us rise and pledge our word.
2 Lead us, Father, into freedom,
From despair your world release;
That redeemed from war and hatred
Men may come and go in peace.
Show us how through care and goodness
Fear will die and hope increase.
Show us how through care and goodness
Fear will die and hope increase.
3 All that kills abundant living,
Let it from the earth be banned;
Pride of status, race, or schooling,
Dogmas keeping man from man.
In our common quest for justice
May we hallow life's brief span.
In our common quest for justice
May we hallow life's brief span.
4 You, Creator God, have written
Your great name on all mankind;
For our growing in your likeness
Bring the life of Christ to mind;
That by our response and service
Earth its destiny may find.
That by our response and service
Earth its destiny may find. Scripture: Amos 5:24 Languages: English Tune Title: KONG-EUI

Stanzas on Freedom
Author: James Russell Lowell Hymnal: TTT-Himnaro Cigneta #529 Topics: Human Rights First Line: Men! whose boast it is that ye Lyrics: 1. Men! whose boast it is that ye come of fathers brave and free,
If there breathe on earth a slave, are ye truly free and brave?
If ye do not feel the chain, when it works a brother's pain,
Are ye not base slaves indeed, slaves unworthy to be freed?
Are ye not base slaves indeed, slaves unworthy to be freed?
2, Women! who shall one day bear, sons to breathe New England air,
If ye hear, without a blush, deeds to make the roused blood rush
Like red lava through your veins, for your sisters now in chains —
Answer! are ye fit to be mothers of the brave and free?
Answer! are ye fit to be mothers of the brave and free?
3. Is true Freedom but to break fetters for our own dear sake,
And, with leathern hearts, forget that we owe mankind a debt?
No! true Freedom is to share all the chains our brothers wear,
And, with heart and hand, to be earnest to make others free!
And, with heart and hand, to be earnest to make others free!
4. They are slaves who fear to speak for the fallen and the weak;
They are slaves who will not choose hatred, scoffing, and abuse,
Rather than in silence shrink from the truth they needs must think;
They are slaves who dare not be in the right with two or three.
They are slaves who dare not be in the right with two or three. Languages: English Tune Title: MENDELSSOHN

Once to Every Man and Nation
Author: James Russell Lowell Hymnal: Hymns from the Four Winds #82 (1983) Topics: The Christian Life Justice and Human Rights First Line: Once to ev'ry man and nation Lyrics: 1 Once to ev'ry man and nation
Comes the moment to decide,
In the strife of truth with falsehood,
For the good or evil side;
Some great cause, God's new Messiah,
Off'ring each the bloom or blight,
And the choice goes by forever
Twixt that darkness and that light.
2 Then to side with truth is noble,
When we share her wretched crust,
Ere her cause bring fame and profit,
And 'tis prosp'rous to be just;
Then it is the brave one chooses
While the coward stands aside,
Till the multitude make virtue
Of the faith they had denied.
3 By the light of burning martyrs,
Christ, your bleeding feet we track,
Toiling up new Calv'ries ever
With the cross that turns not back;
New occasions teach new duties,
Time makes ancient good uncouth;
They must upward still and onward,
Who would keep abreast of truth.
4 Though the cause of evil prosper,
Yet 'tis truth alone is strong;
Though her portion be the scaffold,
And upon the throne be wrong:
Yet that scaffold sways the future,
And, behind the dim unknown,
Standeth God within the shadow
Keeping watch above his own. Scripture: Romans 8:37 Languages: English Tune Title: TYZEN
