For the Healing of the Nations

Author: Fred Kaan Hymnal: Voices United #678 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Topics: The Church in the World Commitment: Peace and Justice Lyrics: 1 For the healing of the nations, God, 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 forward 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.

Isaiah the Prophet Has Written of Old

Author: Joy F. Patterson Hymnal: Voices United #680 (1996) Meter: 11.8.11.8 D Topics: The Church in the World Commitment: Peace and Justice 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 mountains and hills shall break forth into song, the peoples be led forth in peace, for the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of God as the waters cover the sea. 2 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. 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.

O God of Ev'ry Nation

Author: William W. Reid, Jr. Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #683 (1995) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Peace and Justice Lyrics: 1 O God of ev'ry nation, of ev'ry race and land, redeem the whole creation with your almighty hand; where hate and fear divide us, and bitter threats are hurled, in love and mercy guide us and heal our strife-torn world. 2 From search for wealth and power and scorn of truth and right, from trust in bombs that shower destruction through the night, from pride of race and nation and blindness to your way, deliver ev'ry nation, eternal God, we pray. 3 Lord, strengthen all who labor that all may find release from fear of rattling saber, from dread of war's increase; when hope and courage falter, Lord, let your voice be heard; with faith that none can alter, your servants undergird. 4 Keep bright in us the vision of days when war shall cease, when hatred and division give way to love and peace, till dawns the morning glorious when truth and justice reign, and Christ shall rule victorious o'er all the world's domain.

Behold a Broken World

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #691 (1995) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Peace and Justice Lyrics: 1 Behold a broken world, we pray, where want and war increase, and grant us, Lord, in this our day, the ancient dream of peace: 2 a dream of swords to sickles bent, of spears to scythe and spade, the weapons of our warfare spent, a world of peace remade; 3 where ev'ry battle flag is furled and ev'ry trumpet stilled, where wars shall cease in all the world, a waking dream fulfilled. 4 No force of arms shall there prevail nor justice cease its sway; nor shall their loftiest visions fail the dreamers of the day. 5 O Prince of peace, who died to save, a lost world to redeem, and rose in triumph from the grave, behold our waking dream. 6 Bring, Lord, your better world to birth, your kingdom, love's domain; where peace with God, and peace on earth, and peace eternal reign.
