America! America! God shed his grace on thee, and crown thy good with brotherhood from sea to shining sea. 2 O beautiful for heroes proved in liberating strife, who more than self their country loved, and mercy more than life! America! America! May God thy gold refine, till all success be nobleness, and every gain divine. 3 O beautiful for patriot dream that sees beyond the years thine alabaster cities gleam, undimmed by human tears! America! America! God mend thine every flaw, confirm thy soul in self-control, thy liberty in law. United Methodist Hymnal, 1989

Christmas Bells

Author: Henry W. Longfellow Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 119 hymnals Topics: National Righteousness First Line: I heard the bells on Christmas day Lyrics: 1 I heard the bells on Christmas day Their old familiar carols play, And wild and sweet the words repeat Of peace of earth, good will to men. 2 I thought how, as the day had come, The belfries of all Christendom Had rolled along th'unbroken song Of peace on earth, good will to men. 3 And in despair I bowed my head: "There is no peace on earth," I said, "For hate is strong, and mocks the song Of peace on earth, good will to men." 4 Then pealed the bells more loud and deep: "God is not dead, nor doth He sleep; The wrong shall fail, the right prevail, With peace on earth, good will to men." 5 Till, ringing, singing on its way, The world revolved from night to day A voice, a chime, a chant sublime, Of peace on earth, good will to men. Baptist Hymnal, 1991

Not Alone for Mighty Empire

Author: William P. Merrill, 1867-1954 Appears in 87 hymnals Topics: National Righteousness Lyrics: 1 Not alone for mighty empire, Stretching far o'er land and sea; Not alone for bounteous harvests, Lift we up our hearts to Thee. Standing in the living present, Memory and hope between, Lord, we would with deep thanksgiving Praise Thee most for things unseen. 2 Not for battleship and fortress, Not for conquests of the sword; But for conquests of the spirit Give we thanks to Thee, O Lord; For the heritage of freedom, For the home, the church, the school; For the open door to manhood In a land the people rule. 3 For the armies of the faithful, Souls that passed and left no name; For the glory that illumines Patriot lives of deathless fame; For our prophets and apostles, Loyal to the living Word; For all heroes of the Spirit, Give we thanks to Thee, O Lord. 4 God of justice, save the people From the clash of race and creed, From the strife of class and faction: Make our nation free indeed. Keep her faith in simple manhoood Strong as when her life began, Till it find its full fruition In the brotherhood of man. Amen. Used With Tune: HYFRYDOL
