For the healing of the nations
Author: Fred Kaan (1929-2009) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #635 (2013) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Tune Title: ALLELUIA DULCE CARMEN Topics: Aid and development 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.
2 Lead us forward into freedom,
from despair your world release,
that, redeemed from war and hatred,
all may come and go in peace.
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 that obscure your plan.
In our common quest for justice
may we hallow life's brief span.
4 You, Creator-God, have written
your great name on humankind;
for our growing in your likeness
bring the life of Christ to mind;
that by our response and service
earth its destiny may find. Scripture: Isaiah 2:1-5 Languages: English
For the healing of the nations

for every cause of justice won,
for every fetter freed.

where force and fear prevail,
the plough becomes the sword again,
and hope and harvests fail.

the wants of humankind,
that those in bondage and distress
their larger freedoms find.

till earth's oppressions cease
before the universal right
to liberty and peace.

and spread his truth abroad;
and in his Name we lift our prayer:
'Your kingdom come, O Lord.' Scripture: Matthew 6:9-13 Languages: English
