O God, Who Gave Humanity Its Name

Author: Fred Kaan Hymnal: CH1995 #498 (1995) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 O God who gave humanity its name, in whom we live and move, from whom we came, be with these two who now before you wait; enlarge the love they come to consecrate. 2 May through their union other lives be blessed; their door be wide to stranger and to guest, give them the understanding that is kind, grant them the blessing of an open mind. 3 From stage to stage on life's unfolding way bring to their mind the vows they make this day; your Spirit be their guide in every move, their faith in Christ the touchstone of their love. 4 God bless us all to whom this day brings joy, let no events our unity destroy, and help us, till all sense of time is lost, to live in love and not to count the cost.

May swords of hate fall from our hands, our hearts from envy find release, till by God's grace our warring world shall see Christ's promised reign of peace. 2 Then shall the wolf dwell with the lamb, nor shall the fierce devour the small; as beasts and cattle calmly graze, a little child shall lead them all. Then enemies shall learn to love, all creatures find their true accord; the hope of peace shall be fulfilled, for all the earth shall know the Lord.

Once in Royal David's City

Author: Cecil F. Alexander Hymnal: CH1995 #165 (1995) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Once in royal David's city stood a lowly cattle shed, where a mother laid her baby in a manger for his bed: Mary was that Mother mild, Jesus Christ her little child. 2 Christ came down to earth from heaven love incarnate for us all, and his shelter was a stable, and his cradle was a stall; with the poor, the scorned, the lowly, lived on earth our Savior holy. 3 Jesus is our childhood's pattern; day by day like us he grew, he was little, weak, and helpless, tears and smiles like us he knew; Thus he feels for our sadness, and he shares in all our gladness. 5 And our eyes at last shall see him, through his own redeeming love; for that child who seemed so helpless, lives and reigns in heaven above; and he leads his children on to the place where he is gone.
