O brother man, fold to thy heart thy brother

Author: John Greenleaf Whittier (1807-1892) Hymnal: The Hymnal #403 (1950) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth 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 has 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 reverent 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. 4 Then shall all shackles fall; the stormy clangor Of wild war music o'er the earth shall cease; Love shall tread out the baleful fire of anger, And in its ashes plant the tree of peace. Amen. Tune Title: WELWYN
