For the Fruit of All Creation

Author: Fred Pratt Green Meter: 8.4.8.4.8.8.8.4 Appears in 74 hymnals Topics: Nation Lyrics: 1 For the fruit of all creation, thanks be to God. For these gifts to every nation, thanks be to God. For the ploughing, sowing, reaping, silent growth while we are sleeping, future needs in earth's safe-keeping, thanks be to God. 2 In the just reward of labour, God's will is done. In the help we give our neighbour, God's will is done. In our worldwide task of caring for the hungry and despairing, in the harvests we are sharing, God's will is done. 3 For the harvests of the Spirit, thanks be to God. For the good we all inherit, thanks be to God. For the wonders that astound us, for the truths that still confound us, most of all that love has found us, thanks be to God.

O Beautiful for Spacious Skies

Author: Katharine Lee Bates Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 523 hymnals Topics: National Songs Lyrics: 1 O beautiful for spacious skies, For amber waves of grain, For purple mountain majesties Above the fruited plain! America! America! God shed His grace on thee, And crown thy good with *brotherhood From sea to shining sea! 2 O beautiful for pilgrim feet, Whose stern, impassioned stress A thoroughfare for freedom beat Across the wilderness! America! America! God mend thine every flaw, Confirm thy soul in self-control, Thy liberty in law! 3 O beautiful for heroes proved In liberating strife, Who more than self their country loved, And mercy more than life! America! America! May God thy gold refine Till all success be nobleness And every gain divine. 4 O beautiful for patriot dream That sees beyond the years Thine alabaster cities gleam, Undimmed by human tears! America! America! God shed His grace on thee And crown thy good with *brotherhood From sea to shining sea! *Or "servanthood." Used With Tune: MATERNA

Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Appears in 21 hymnals Topics: Nations Lyrics: 1 Zion, founded on the mountains, God, thy Maker, loves thee well; He has chosen thee, most precious, He delights in thee to dwell; God's own city, Who can all thy glory tell? God's own city, Who can all thy glory tell? 2 Heathen lands and hostile peoples Soon shall come the Lord to know; Nations born again in Zion Shall the Lord's salvation show; God Almighty, Shall on Zion strength bestow, God Almighty, Shall on Zion strength bestow. 3 When the Lord shall count the nations, Sons and daughters He shall see, Born to endless life in Zion, And their joyful song shall be: "Blessed Zion, All our fountains are in thee," "Blessed Zion, All our fountains are in thee."

May freedom speed onward, wherever the blood

Author: Whittier Meter: 12.12.12.12 Appears in 10 hymnals Topics: The Christian Nation Freedom Lyrics: 1 May freedom speed onward, wherever the blood Of the wronged and the guiltless is crying to God; Wherever from kindred, torn rudely apart, Comes the sorrowful wait of the broken of heart. 2 Wherever the shackles of tyranny bind In silence and darkness the God-given mind, There, Lord, speed it onward! the truth shall be felt, The bonds shall be loosened, the iron will melt. 3 Help us turn from the cavil of words, to unite Once again for the poor in defense of the right, Unappalled by the danger, the shame, or the pain, And counting each trial for truth as our gain.

Oh, fairest-born of Love and Light!

Author: Whittier Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 17 hymnals Topics: The Christian Nation Brotherhood Lyrics: 1 Oh, fairest-born of Love and Light! Yet bending brow and eye severe On all which pains the holy sight, Or wounds the pure and perfect ear-- 2 Beneath thy broad, impartial eye, How fade the lines of caste and birth! How equal in their sufferings lie The groaning multitudes of earth! 3 Still to a stricken brother true, Whatever clime hath nourished him; As stooped to heal the wounded Jew, The worshiper of Gerizim. 4 In holy words which can not die, In thoughts which angels learned to know, Christ gave thy message from on high, Thy mission to a world of woe. 5 That voice's echo hath not died; From the blue lake of Galilee, From Tabor's lonely mountain-side, It calls a struggling world to thee.
