O God of every nation, Of every race and land
Author: William Watkins Reid Hymnal: The Advent Christian Hymnal #d293 (1967)
O God of every nation, Of every race and land
O God of Ev'ry Nation
Author: William W. Reid, Jr. Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #683 (1995) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D 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. Topics: Peace and Justice; Community, nation and world; Conflict; Earthly concerns; Justice; Peace--Of the world; Reconciliation; Social ministry Scripture: Isaiah 2:1-4 Languages: English Tune Title: LLANGLOFFAN
