The King of love my shepherd is
Author: H. W. Baker, 1821-1877 Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 675 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 2:16 Lyrics: 1 The King of love my shepherd is,
whose goodness faileth never;
I nothing lack if I am his
and he is mine for ever.
2 Where streams of living water flow
my ransomed soul he leadeth,
and where the verdant pastures grow
with food celestial feedeth.
3 Perverse and foolish oft I strayed,
but yet in love he sought me,
and on his shoulder gently laid,
and home rejoicing brought me.
4 In death's dark vale I fear no ill
with thee, dear Lord, beside me;
thy rod and staff my comfort still,
thy cross before to guide me.
5 Thou spread'st a table in my sight;
thy unction grace bestoweth;
and O what transport of delight
from thy pure chalice floweth!
6 And so through all the length of days
thy goodness faileth never:
good Shepherd, may I sing thy praise
within thy house for ever. Topics: Proper 11 Year B; Funerals, Commemoration, Remembrance and All Souls Used With Tune: DOMINUS REGIT ME

Than e'er the world hath known shall rise
With flame of freedom in their souls
And light of knowledge in their eyes.

To spill no drop of blood, but dare
All that may plant man's lordship firm
On earth, and fire, and sea, and air.
3 Nation with nation, land with land,
Unarmed shall live as comrades free;
In every heart and brain shall throb
The pulse of one fraternity.
4 New arts shall bloom of loftier mold,
And mightier music thrill the skies,
And every life shall be a song,
When all the earth is paradise.
Amen. Used With Tune: TRURO

the flags of dawn appear;

proclaim the day is near:
4 The day in whose clear-shining light
all wrong shall stand revealed,
when justice shall be throned with might,
and every heart be healed:

shall walk the earth abroad,
the day of perfect righteousness,
the promised day of God. Topics: Life in Christ Christ Risen - Coming Again; Christian Year Advent; Justice and Peace; Kingdom of God Used With Tune: IRISH

Christian Union
Author: Jane Borthwick Appears in 61 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 2:4 First Line: And is the time approaching Lyrics: 1 And is the time approaching,
By prophets long foretold,
When all shall dwell together,
One shepherd and one fold?
Shall every idol perish,
To moles and bats be thrown,
And every prayer be offered
To God in Christ alone?
2 Shall Jew and Gentile, meeting
From many a distant shore,
Around one altar kneeling,
One common Lord adore?
Shall all that now divides us
Remove and pass away,
Like shadows of the morning
Before the blaze of day?
3 Shall all that now unites us
More sweet and lasting prove,
A closer bond of union,
In a blest land of love?
Shall war be learned no longer,
Shall strife and tumult cease,
All earth his blessed kingdom,
The Lord and Prince of Peace?
4 O long-expected dawning,
Come with thy cheering ray!
When shall the morning brighten,
The shadows flee away?
O sweet anticipation!
It cheers the watchers on,
To pray, and hope, and labor,
Till the dark night be gone. Topics: Christ Prince of Peace; Church Missions of; Church Work of Used With Tune: MUNICH
