Lord, if faith is disenchanted

Author: Alan Gaunt (b. 1935) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #528 (2013) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Topics: Justice and Peace Lyrics: 1 Lord, if faith is disenchanted, if our pain persists too long, show us that your love is planted deeper far than all time's wrong. 2 If we feel ourselves forsaken, overwhelmed by sin and grief, prove your love, though faith is shaken, deeper than our unbelief. 3 Where injustice and oppression make the poor and weak despair, prove your love's profound compassion, deeper than their deepest prayer. 4 When the children, Lord, are dying, anguished parents asking, 'Why?', prove your love, in grief and crying, deeper than grief's deepest cry. 5 Let the cross, your love's perfection, present with us all along, prove itself, in resurrection, deeper far than all time's wrong.

Pray for the Wilderness

Trust the connection of all living things. Languages: English Tune Title: WILDERNESS

We sing your praise, eternal God

Author: Alan Gaunt (b. 1935) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #574 (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Justice and Peace Lyrics: 1 We sing your praise, eternal God, to whom all praise belongs; but we can never match your love, however loud our songs: 2 Your love which comes so silently, through all the noise we hear; the noise of quarrelling and war, the cries of grief and fear. 3 The winds of doubt uproot our faith, the earthquakes of despair destroy our hope, and fires of hate kill love and stifle prayer. 4 And yet no sound on earth can drown the silence we have heard; the voice of your eternal love; the silence of your Word. 5 It comes to guilty, broken hearts, with challenge and release; prepares us for self-sacrifice and speaks eternal peace.

Great God of Earth and Heaven

Author: Shirley Erena Murray Hymnal: The New Century Hymnal #579 (1995) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Justice and Peace Lyrics: 1 Great God of earth and heaven whose Spirit is our breath, at Christmastime born human, at Easter shared our death: All-generous, all-loving, in whom all beauty thrives - forgive your sons and daughters the comfort of our lives! 2 While refugees go homeless and die before they live, while children have no future - our apathy forgive! Where hope fades to depression, despair erodes the soul, restore in us a passion to make the broken whole. 3 Where hunger kills your people, injustice cries aloud, while weapons grow more lethal and only power stands proud - God of our flesh and fiber, whose mercy does not cease, implant your mind within us, create a world for peace!
