O God of earth and altar
Author: Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874-1936) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #582 (2013) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Lyrics: 1 O God of earth and altar,
bow down and hear our cry,
our earthly rulers falter,
our people drift and die;
the walls of gold entomb us,
the swords of scorn divide,
take not thy thunder from us,
but take away our pride.
2 From all that terror teaches,
from lies of tongue and pen,
from all the easy speeches
that comfort cruel men,
from sale and profanation
of honour and the sword,
from sleep and from damnation,
deliver us, good Lord!
3 Tie in a living tether
the prince and priest and thrall,
bind all our lives together,
smite us and save us all;
in ire and exultation
aflame with faith, and free,
lift up a living nation,
a single sword to thee. Topics: Justice and Peace; Human Dignity; Justice; Nation and Society; National and Remembrance; Other Saints and Festivals George, Martyr, Patron of England; Sin; Social Concern Scripture: Proverbs 14:34 Languages: English Tune Title: KING'S LYNN
