God in such love for us lent us this planet
Author: Frederick Pratt Green (1903-2000) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #240 (2005) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Topics: The Living God Our Response to God - in the stewardship of the earth; Our Response to God in the stewardship of the earth Lyrics: 1 God in such love for us lent us this planet,
gave it a purpose in time and in space:
small as a spark from the fire of creation,
cradle of life and the home of our race.
2 Thanks be to God for its bounty and beauty,
life that sustains us in body and mind:
plenty for all, if we learn how to share it,
riches undreamed-of to fathom and find.
3 Long have our human wars ruined its harvest;
long has earth bowed to the terror of force;
long have we wasted what others have need of,
poisoned the fountain of life at its source.
4 Earth is the Lord's: it is ours to enjoy it,
Ours, as God's stewards, to farm and defend.
From its pollution, misuse, and destruction,
good Lord, deliver us, world without end! Scripture: 1 Timothy 6:17 Languages: English Tune Title: EPIPHANY

Isaiah the prophet has written of old
Author: Joy F. Patterson (b. 1931-) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #241 (2005) Meter: Irregular Topics: Our Response to God in the stewardship of the earth Lyrics: 1 Isaiah the prophet has written of old
how God's new creation shall come.
Instead of the thorn tree, the fir tree shall grow
the wolf shall lie down with the lamb, the lamb,
the wolf shall lie down with the lamb.
2 The mountains and hills shall break forth into song,
the peoples be led forth in peace:
the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of God
as the waters cover the sea, the sea,
as the waters cover the sea.
3 Yet nations still prey on the meek of the world,
and conflict turns parent from child.
Your people despoil all the sweetness of earth;
the brier and the thorn tree grow wild, grow wild,
the brier and the thorn tree grow wild.
4 God, bring to fruition your will for the earth,
that no one shall hurt or destroy,
when wisdom and justice shall reign in the land
and your people shall go forth in joy, in joy,
and your people shall go forth in joy.

Author: Frederick Lucian Hosmer Hymnal: The Hymnbook #484 (1955) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Peace on Earth; Kingdom of God on Earth, The World Friendship and Peace Lyrics: 1 "Thy kingdom come," on bended knee
The passing ages pray;
And faithful souls have yearned to see
On earth that Kingdom's day.
2 But the slow watches of the night
Not less to God belong;
And for the everlasting right
The silent stars are strong.
3 And lo! already on the hills
The flags of dawn appear;
Gird up your loins, ye prophet souls,
Proclaim the day is near:
4 The day in whose clear-shining light
All wrong shall stand revealed;
When justice shall be clothed with might,
And every hurt be healed.
5 When knowledge, hand in hand with peace,
Shall walk the earth abroad;
The day of perfect righteousness,
The promised day of God.
Amen. Scripture: Matthew 6:10 Tune Title: ST. FLAVIAN

Yet to eternity standeth Thy word;
Falsehood and wrong shall not tarry beside Thee:
Give to us peace in our time, O Lord.

Yet shall to freedom and truth be restored;
Through the thick darkness Thy Kingdom is hastening:
