Eternal Ruler of the Ceaseless Round
Author: John White Chadwick Hymnal: Voices United #571 (1996) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 Eternal ruler of the ceaseless round
of circling planets singing on their way,
guide of the nations from the night profound
into the glory of the perfect day:
rule in our hearts, that we may live ever new,
guided and strengthened and upheld by you.
2 We are your own, the children of your love,
as dearly loved as your beloved Son;
descend, O Holy Spirit, like a dove,
and rule our hearts, that we may be as one:
as one with you, to whom we ever tend;
as one with Christ, our Saviour and our friend.
3 We would be one in hatred of all wrong,
one in our love of all things kind and fair,
one with the joy that finds a voice in song
one with the grief that trembles into prayer,
one in the power that makes your children free
to follow truth, and thus in you to be.
4 O clothe us with your heavenly armour, Lord,
your trusty shield and sword of love be ours;
our inspiration be your constant word;
we ask no victories that are not yours:
give or withhold, let pain or pleasure fall;
to know that we are serving you is all.

thy trusty shield, thy sword of love divine;

Eternal Ruler of the ceaseless round
And now, O Father, mindful of the love
Author: William Bright, 1824-1901 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #34b (2000) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 And now, O Father, mindful of the love
that bought us, once for all, on Calv'ry's tree,
and having with us him that pleads above,
we here present, we here spread forth to thee
that only off'ring perfect in thine eyes,
the one true, pure, immortal sacrifice.
2 Look, Father, look on his anointed face,
and only look on us as found in him;
look not on our misusings of thy grace,
our prayer so languid, and our faith so dim:
for lo, between our sins and their reward
we set the Passion of thy Son our Lord.
3 And then for those, our dearest and our best,
by this prevailing presence we appeal:
O fold them closer to thy mercy's breast,
O do thine utmost for their souls' true weal;
from tainting mischief keep them white and clear,
and crown thy gifts with strength to persevere.
4 And so we come: O draw us to thy feet,
most patient Saviour, who canst love us still;
and by this food, so aweful and so sweet,
deliver us from ev'ry touch of ill:
in thine own service make us glad and free,
and grant us never more to part with thee.

Thus may we all one bread, one body be,
through this blest sacrament of unity.

may we be one with all thy church above,
one with thy saints in one unbroken peace,
one with thy saints in one unbounded love;
more blessed still, in peace and love to be
one with the Trinity in Unity.
