To Us All, to Every Nation

Author: James Russell Lowell; W. Garrett Horder Hymnal: Chalice Hymnal #634 (1995) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 To us all, to every nation comes the moment to decide, in the strife of truth with falsehood, for the good or evil side; some great cause, God's new endeavor, offering each the bloom or blight, and the choice goes by forever; 'twixt that darkness and that light. 2 By the light of burning martyrs, Jesus' bleeding feet I track, toiling up new Calvaries ever with the cross that turns not back; new occasions teach new duties, time makes ancient good uncouth; they must upward still and onward, who would keep abreast of truth. 3 Though the cause of evil prosper, yet 'tis truth alone is strong, truth forever on the scaffold, wrong forever on the throne. Yet that scaffold sways the future, and, behind the dim unknown, God is standing in the shadow keeping watch beside God's own.

To Us All, to Every Nation

Author: W. Garrett Horder; James Russell Lowell Hymnal: Voices United #694 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 To us all, to every nation comes a moment to decide, in the strife of truth with falsehood for the good or evil side, some great cause, some modern prophet offering each the bloom or blight, and the choice goes by for ever 'twixt that darkness and that light. 2 Then to side with truth is noble when we share its wretched crust, ere the cause bring fame and profit and 'tis prosperous to be just. Then it is the brave one chooses, while the coward stands aside till the multitude make virtue of the faith they had denied. 3 By the light of burning martyrs, Jesus' bleeding feet we track, toiling up new Calvaries ever with the cross that turns not back; new occasions teach new duties, time makes ancient good uncouth; they must upward still and onward, who would keep abreast of truth. 4 Though the cause of evil prosper, yet 'tis truth alone is strong, though its portion be the scaffold and upon the throne be wrong. Yet that scaffold sways the future, and, behind the dim unknown, there stands God within the shadow, keeping watch beside God's own.
