Father Eternal, Ruler of Creation
Author: Laurence Housman Hymnal: The Hymnbook #486 (1955) Meter: 11.10.11.10.10 Topics: Kingdom of God on Earth, The World Friendship and Peace Lyrics: 1 Father eternal, Ruler of creation,
Spirit of life, which moved ere form was made;
Through the thick darkness covering every nation,
Light to man's blindness, O be Thou our aid:
Thy Kingdom come, O Lord, Thy will be done.
2 Races and peoples, lo! we stand divided,
And sharing not our griefs, no joy can share;
By wars and tumults Love is mocked, derided,
His conquering cross no kingdom wills to bear:
Thy Kingdom come, O Lord, Thy will be done.
3 Envious of heart, blind-eyed, with tongues confounded,
Nation by nation still goes unforgiven;
In wrath and fear, by jealousies surrounded,
Building proud towers which shall not reach to heaven:
Thy Kingdom come, O Lord, Thy will be done.
4 How shall we love Thee, holy, hidden Being,
If we love not the world which Thou hast made?
O give us brother love for better seeing
Thy Word made flesh, and in a manger laid:
Thy Kingdom come, O Lord, Thy will be done.
Amen. Scripture: Matthew 6:10 Tune Title: LANGHAM
Father Eternal, Ruler of Creation
Thy Kingdom Come, O Lord
Author: Frederick Lucian Hosmer Hymnal: The Hymnbook #488 (1955) Meter: 6.6.6.6 Topics: Kingdom of God on Earth, The World Friendship and Peace Lyrics: 1 Thy Kingdom come, O Lord,
Wide-circling as the sun;
Fulfill of old Thy word
And make the nations one:
2 One in the bond of peace,
The service glad and free
Of truth and righteousness,
Of love and equity.
3 Speed, speed the longed-for time
Foretold by raptured seers—
The prophecy sublime,
The hope of all the years—
4 Till rise at last, to span
Its firm foundations broad,
The commonwealth of man,
The city of our God.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 72:7-8 Tune Title: ST. CECELIA
Thy Kingdom Come, O Lord
Heralds of Christ, Who Bear the King's Commands
Author: Laura S. Copenhaver (1868-1940) Hymnal: The Hymnbook #498 (1955) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: Kingdom of God on Earth, The Missions First Line: Heralds of Christ, who bear the King's command Lyrics: 1 Heralds of Christ, who bear the King's commands,
Immortal tidings in your mortal hands,
Pass on and carry swift the news ye bring:
Make straight, make straight the highway of the King.
2 Through desert ways, dark fen, and deep morass,
Through jungles, sluggish seas, and mountain pass,
Build ye the road, and falter not, nor stay;
Prepare across the earth the King's highway.
3 Where once the crooked trail in darkness wound
Let marching feet and joyous song resound,
Where burn the funeral pyres, and censers swing,
Make straight, make straight the highway of the King.
4 Lord, give us faith and strength the road to build,
To see the promise of the day fulfilled,
When war shall be no more and strife shall cease
Upon the highway of the Prince of Peace.
Amen. Scripture: Isaiah 40:3-5 Tune Title: NATIONAL HYMN

Comfort, Comfort Ye My People

Speak ye peace, thus saith our God;
Comfort those who sit in darkness,
Mourning 'neath their sorrow's load.
Speak ye to Jerusalem
Of the peace that waits for them;
Tell her that her sins I cover,
And her warfare now is over.
2 For the herald's voice is crying
In the desert far and near,
Bidding all men to repentance,
Since the kingdom now is here.
O that warning cry obey!
Now prepare for God a way;
Let the valleys rise to meet Him,
And the hills bow down to greet Him.
3 Make ye straight what long was crooked,
Make the rougher places plain;
Let your hearts be true and humble,
As befits His holy reign.
For the glory of the Lord
Now o'er earth is shed abroad;
And all flesh shall see the token,
That His Word is never broken. Languages: English Tune Title: THIRSTING
