Source of life and truth and grace,
Son of Man, whose birth incarnate
Hallows all our human race;
You our Head, who, throned in glory,
For your own do ever plead,
Fill us with your love and pity,
Heal our wrongs, and help our need.
2 Lord, as you have lived for others,
So may we for others live;
Freely have your gifts been granted,
Freely may your servants give.
Yours the gold and yours the silver,
Yours the wealth of land and sea,
We, the stewards of your bounty,
Faithful to our trust should be.
3 Come, O Christ, and reign among us,
King of love and Prince of Peace;
Hush the storm of strife and passion,
Bid its cruel discords cease.
By your patient years of toiling,
By your silent hours of pain,
Quench our fevered thirst of pleasure,
Shame our selfish greed of gain.
4 See the Christ-like host advancing,
High and lowly, great and small,
Linked in bonds of common service
For the common Lord of all.
As you prayed and as you labored
That your people should be one,
Grant, O grant our hope’s fruition:
Here on earth your will be done.
Amen. Scripture: Titus 2:13-14 Tune Title: IN BABILONE
Son of God, Eternal Savior
