My Life Flows On in Endless Song
Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #108 (1993) Topics: Words and Deeds of Prophetic Women and Men Commitment and Action Lyrics: 1 My life flows on in endless song
above earth’s lamentation.
I hear the real though far-off hymn
that hails a new creation.
Through all the tumult and the strife,
I hear the music ringing.
It sounds an echo in my soul.
How can I keep from singing?
2 What though the tempest 'round me roars,
I know the truth, it liveth.
What though the darkness 'round me close,
songs in the night it giveth.
No storm can shake my inmost calm
while to that rock I'm clinging.
Since love prevails in heav'n and earth,
how can I keep from singing?
3 When tyrants tremble as they hear
the bells of freedom ringing,
when friends rejoice both far and near,
how can I keep from singing!
To prison cell and dungeon vile
our thoughts to them are winging;
when friends by shame are undefiled,
how can I keep from singing? Languages: English Tune Title: SINGING

New glory dawns upon the world;
the warring banners must be furled,

the stirring rumors of the day;
old wrongs and burdens must make way
for all to tread the common ground.

the love that is our common speech.
The comrade cry of each to each
is calling us to humanhood. Languages: English Tune Title: VOM HIMMEL HOCH

widening freedom’s sacred sway.

Forward Through the Ages
Author: Frederick Lucian Hosmer, 1840-1929 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #114 (1993) Topics: Words and Deeds of Prophetic Women and Men Commitment and Action Lyrics: 1 Forward through the ages,
in unbroken line,
move the faithful spirits
at the call divine:
gifts in differing measure,
hearts of one accord,
manifold the service,
one the sure reward.
Forward through the ages,
in unbroken line,
move the faithful spirits
at the call divine.
2 Wider grows the vision,
realm of love and light;
for it we must labor,
till our faith is sight.
Prophets have proclaimed it,
martyrs testified,
poets sung its glory,
heroes for it died.
Forward through the ages,
in unbroken line,
move the faithful spirits
at the call divine.
3 Not alone we conquer,
not alone we fall;
in each loss or triumph
lose or triumph all.
Bound by God’s far purpose
in one living whole,
move we on together
to the shining goal.
Forward through the ages,
in unbroken line,
move the faithful spirits
at the call divine.

on thy people pour thy power;
crown thine ancient church's story;
bring its bud to glorious flower.
Grant us wisdom, grant us courage,
for the facing of this hour,
for the facing of this hour.
2 Lo, the clouds of evil 'round us
hide thy brightness from our gaze;
from the fears that long have bound us,
free our hearts to faith and praise.
Grant us wisdom, grant us courage,
for the living of these days,
for the living of these days.
3 Cure thy children's warring madness;
bend our pride to thy control;
shame our wanton selfish gladness,
rich in goods and poor in soul.
Grant us wisdom, grant us courage,
make thy peace our daily goal,
make thy peace our daily goal.
4 Fill us with a living vision,
heal our wounds hat we may be
bound as one beyond division
in the struggle to be free.
Grant us wisdom, grant us courage,
ears to hear and eyes to see,
ears to hear and eyes to see. Languages: English Tune Title: CWM RHONDDA
