In Christ There is No East or West
Author: John Oxenham Hymnal: Great Songs of the Church (Revised) #392 (1986) Topics: Brotherhood; Brotherhood Scripture: Romans 15:8-12 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. PETER
In Christ There is No East or West
O brother man! Fold to thy heart thy brother
Author: J. G. Whittier, 1807-1892 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #393 (1917) Topics: Brotherhood Universal; Universal Brotherhood Lyrics: 1 O brother man! Fold to thy heart thy brother,
Where pity dwells, the peace of God is there;
To worship rightly is to love each other,
Each smile a hymn, each kindly deed a prayer.
2 For he whom Jesus loved hath truly spoken:
The holier worship which He deigns to bless
Restores the lost, and binds the spirit broken,
And feeds the widow and the fatherless!
3 Follow with rev'rent steps the great example
Of Him whose holy work was "doing good;"
So shall the wide earth seem our Father's temple,
Each loving life a psalm of gratitude.
Languages: English Tune Title: CARMAN
O brother man! Fold to thy heart thy brother
Son of God, eternal Saviour
Author: Somerset Corry Lowry Hymnal: The Hymnal #393 (1950) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Brotherhood Lyrics: 1 Son of God, eternal Saviour,
Source of life and truth and grace,
Son of Man, whose birth incarnate
Hallows all our human race;
Thou our Head, who, throned in glory,
For Thine own dost ever plead,
Fill us with Thy love and pity,
Heal our wrongs, and help our need.
2 As Thou, Lord, hast lived for others,
So may we for others live;
Freely have Thy gifts been granted,
Freely may Thy servants give.
Thine the gold and Thine the silver,
Thine the wealth of land and sea,
We but stewards of Thy bounty
Held in solemn trust for Thee.
3 Come, O Christ, and reign among us,
King of love and Prince of peace;
Hush the storm of strife and passion,
Bid its cruel discords cease.
Ah, the past is dark behind us,
Strewn with wrecks and stained with blood!
But before us gleams the vision
Of the coming brotherhood.
4 See the Christ-like host advancing,
High and lowly, great and small,
Linked in bonds of common service
For the common Lord of all.
Thou who prayedst, Thou who willest
That Thy people should be one,
Grant, O grant our hope’s fruition:
Here on earth Thy will be done.
Amen. Tune Title: IN BABILONE
Son of God, eternal Saviour
The light of God is falling
Author: Rev. Louis F. Benson Hymnal: The Hymnal #400 (1950) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Brotherhood Lyrics: 1 The light of God is falling
Upon life's common way;
The Master's voice still calling,
"Come, walk with Me today";
No duty can seem lowly
To him who lives with Thee,
And all of life grows holy,
O Christ of Galilee!
2 Who shares his life's pure pleasures,
And walks the honest road,
Who trades with heaping measures,
And lifts his brother's load,
Who turns the wrong down bluntly,
And lends the right a hand,
He dwells in God's own country,
He tills the Holy Land.
3 Where human lives are thronging
In toil and pain and sin,
While cloistered hearts are longing
To bring the Kingdom in,
O Christ, the Elder Brother
Of proud and beaten men,
When they have found each other,
Thy Kingdom will come then!
4 Thy ransomed host in glory,
All souls that sin and pray,
Turn toward the cross that bore Thee;
"Behold the Man!" they say:
And while Thy Church is pleading
For all who would do good,
We hear Thy true voice leading
Our song of brotherhood.
Amen. Tune Title: GREENLAND
The light of God is falling
Rise up, O men of God!
Author: Rev. William Pierson Merrill Hymnal: The Hymnal #401 (1950) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Brotherhood Lyrics: 1 Rise up, O men of God!
Have done with lesser things;
Give heart and soul and mind and strength
To serve the King of kings.
2 Rise up, O men of God!
His Kingdom tarries long;
Bring in the day of brotherhood
And end the night of wrong.
3 Rise up, O men of God!
The Church for you doth wait,
Her strength unequal to her task;
Rise up, and make her great!
4 Lift high the cross of Christ!
Tread where His feet have trod;
As brothers of the Son of Man,
Rise up, O men of God!
Amen. Tune Title: FESTAL SONG
Rise up, O men of God!
Lift up our hearts, O King of kings
Author: Rev. John Howard Masterman Hymnal: The Hymnal #405 (1950) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Brotherhood Lyrics: 1 Lift up our hearts, O King of kings,
To brighter hopes and kindlier things;
To visions of a larger good,
And holier dreams of brotherhood.
2 Thy world is weary of its pain,
Of selfish greed and fruitless gain,
Of tarnished honor, falsely strong,
And all its ancient deeds of wrong.
3 Almighty Father, who dost give
The gift of life to all who live,
Look down on all earth's sin and strife,
And lift us to a holier life.
Amen. Tune Title: TRURO
Lift up our hearts, O King of kings
O Holy City, seen of John
Author: Rev. W. Russell Bowie Hymnal: The Hymnal #409 (1950) Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.6 Topics: Brotherhood Lyrics: 1 O Holy City, seen of John,
Where Christ, the Lamb, doth reign,
Within whose four-square walls shall come
No night, nor need, nor pain,
And where the tears are wiped from eyes
That shall not weep again!
2 O shame to us who rest content
While lust and greed for gain
In street and shop and tenement
Wring gold from human pain,
And bitter lips in blind despair
Cry, "Christ hath died in vain"!
3 Give us, O God, the strength to build
The City that hath stood
Too long a dream, whose laws are love,
Whose ways are brotherhood,
And where the sun that shineth is
God's grace for human good.
4 Already in the mind of God
That City riseth fair.
Lo, how its splendor challenges
The souls that greatly dare,
Yea, bids us seize the whole of life
And build its glory there!
Amen. Tune Title: MORWELLHAM
O Holy City, seen of John
God bless our native land!
Author: C. T. Brookes, 1813-; J. S. Dwight, 1812- Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #412 (1917) Topics: Brotherhood Universal; Universal Brotherhood Lyrics: 1 God bless our native land!
Firm may she ever stand,
Through storm and night;
When the wild tempests rave,
Ruler of wind and wave,
Do Thou our country save,
By Thy great might!
2 For her our prayer shall rise
To God, above the skies;
On Thee we wait;
Thou who art ever nigh,
Guarding with watchful eye,
To Thee aloud we cry,
God save the State!
3 And not this land alone,
But be Thy mercies known
From shore to shore;
Let all the nations see
That men should brothers be,
And form one family
The wide earth o'er. Languages: English
God bless our native land!
Not alone for mighty empire
Author: Rev. William Pierson Merrill Hymnal: The Hymnal #416 (1950) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Brotherhood Lyrics: 1 Not alone for mighty empire
Stretching far o'er land and sea,
Not alone for bounteous harvests,
Lift we up our hearts to Thee.
Standing in the living present,
Memory and hope between,
Lord, we would with deep thanksgiving
Praise Thee most for things unseen.
2 Not for battleship and fortress,
Not for conquests of the sword;
But for conquests of the spirit
Give we thanks to Thee, O Lord;
For the priceless gift of freedom,
For the home, the church, the school;
For the open door to manhood
In a land the people rule.
3 For the armies of the faithful,
Souls that passed and left no name;
For the glory that illumines
Patriot lives of deathless fame;
For our prophets and apostles,
Loyal to the living Word,
For all heroes of the Spirit,
Give we thanks to Thee, O Lord.
4 God of justice, save the people
From the clash of race and creed,
From the strife of class and faction:
Make our nation free indeed.
Keep her faith in simple manhood
Strong as when her life began,
Till it find its full fruition
In the brotherhood of man.
Amen. Tune Title: HYFRYDOL
Not alone for mighty empire
