Author: William W. Reid, Jr. Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 36 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O God of every nation, of every race and land, redeem the whole creation with your almighty hand. Where hate and fear divide us and bitter threats are hurled, in love and mercy guide us, and heal our strife-torn world. 2 From search for wealth and power and scorn of truth and right, from trust in bombs that shower destruction through the night, from pride of race and nation and blindness to your way, deliver every nation, eternal God, we pray! 3 Lord, strengthen all who labor that we may find release from fear of rattling saber, from dread of war's increase. When hope and courage falter, Lord, let your voice be heard; with faith that none can alter, your servants undergird. 4 Keep bright in us the vision of days when war shall cease, when hatred and division give way to love and peace, till dawns the morning glorious when truth and justice reign, and Christ shall rule victorious o'er all the world's domain.

Thou Light of Gentile Nations

Author: J. Franck, 1618-77; C. Winkworth, 1827-78 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 36 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Thou Light of Gentile nations, Thou Savior from above, Drawn by Thy Spirit's leading, We come with joy and love Into Thy holy temple And wait with earnest mind As Simeon had waited His God and Lord to find. 2 Yea, Lord, Thy servants meet Thee In ev'ry holy place Where Thy true Word has promised That we should see Thy face. Today Thou still dost grant us Who gather round Thee here In arms of faith to bear Thee As did that aged seer. 3 Be Thou our Joy and Brightness, Our Cheer in pain and loss, Our Sun in darkest terror, The Glory round our cross, A Star for sinking spirits, A Beacon in distress, Physician, Friend, in sickness, In death our Happiness. 4 Let us, O Lord, be faithful Like Simeon to the end, So that his prayer exultant May from our hearts ascend: "O Lord, now let Thy servant Depart in peace, I pray, Since I have seen my Savior And here beheld His day." 5 My Savior, I behold Thee With faith's enlightened eye; Of Thee no foe can rob me, His threats I can defy. Within Thy heart abiding, As Thou, O Lord, in me, Death can no longer frighten Nor part my soul from Thee. 6 Lord, here on earth Thou seemest At times to frown on me, And through my tears I often Can scarce distinguish Thee; But in the heav'nly mansions Shall nothing dim my sight; There shall I see Thy glory In never-changing light.
