For the Healing of the Nations

Author: Fred Kaan, b. 1929 Hymnal: Gather Comprehensive #719 (1994) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 For the healing of the nations, Lord, we pray with one accord; For a just and equal sharing Of the things that earth affords. To a life of love in action help us rise and pledge our word. 2 Lead us now, Lord, into freedom, From despair your world release; That redeemed from war and hatred, All may come and go in peace. Show us how through care and goodness Fear will die and hope increase. 3 All that kills abundant living, Let it from the earth be banned; Pride of status, race or schooling, Dogmas that obscure your plan. In our common quest for justice May we hallow life's brief span. 4 You, creator God, have written Your great name on humankind; For our growing in your likeness Bring the life of Christ to mind: That by our response and service Earth its destiny may find.
