When Will People Cease Their Fighting?

Author: Constance Cherry Hymnal: The Presbyterian Hymnal #401 (1990) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 When will people cease their fighting? When will armies wage no war, Nations conquer not their neighbor, Weapons idle, used no more? When will guns and bombs be silent? When will captives be set free? All creation groans in longing For the world's true liberty. 2 Floods and earthquakes, drought and famine Plague the world with awesome ill, But far greater is war's horror Caused by human, stubborn will. Blest are those who, working, praying, Purpose in their hearts to be Instruments of peace, committed To the nations' harmony. 3 As we strive for peace with vigor, Hoping to be shown the way, We are strengthened in the knowledge Of a future, perfect day; For we know that deeper, richer Peace is ours when Christ shall reign: Then will all our swords be plowshares And God's children free from pain.

Out of Deep, Unordered Water

Author: Fred Kaan Hymnal: Glory to God #484 (2013) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: Out of deep unordered water Refrain First Line: There is water in the river Lyrics: 1 Out of deep, unordered water God created light and land, world of bird and beast and, later, in God's image, woman, man. There is water in the river bringing life to tree and plant. Let creation praise its giver: there is water in the font. 2 Water on the human forehead, birthmark of the love of God, is the sign of death and rising; through the seas there runs a road. There is water in the river bringing life to tree and plant. Let creation praise its giver: there is water in the font. 3 Standing round the font reminds us of the Hebrews' climb ashore. Life is hallowed by the knowledge God has been this way before. There is water in the river bringing life to tree and plant. Let creation praise its giver: there is water in the font.

In Thy Wrath and Hot Displeasure

Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #487 (1990) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 In thy wrath and hot displeasure, chasten not thy servant, Lord; let thy mercy, without measure, help and peace to me afford. Heavy is my tribulation, sore my punishment has been; broken by thine indignation, I am troubled by my sin. 2 With my burden of transgression heavy-laden, overborne, humbled low I make confession, for my folly now I mourn. Weak and wounded, I implore thee; Lord, to me thy mercy show; all my pray'r is now before thee, all my trouble thou dost know. 3 Darkness gathers, foes assail me, but I answer not a word; all my friends desert and fail me, only thou my cry hast heard. Lord, in thee am I confiding; thou wilt answer when I call, lest my foes, the good deriding, triumph in thy servant's fall. 4 I am prone to halt and stumble, grief and sorrow dwell within, shame and guilt my spirit humble; I am sorry for my sin. Lord, my God, do not forsake me, let me know that thou art near, under thy protection take me, as my Savior now appear.

Lord, you give the great commission

Author: Jeffery W. Rowthorn (b. 1934) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #499 (2013) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Lord, you give the great commission: 'Heal the sick and preach the word.' Lest the Church neglect its mission, and the gospel go unheard, help us witness to your purpose with renewed integrity; with the Spirit's gifts empower us for the work of ministry. 2 Lord, you call us to your service: 'In my name baptize and teach.' That the world may trust your promise, life abundant meant for each, give us all new fervour, draw us closer in community; with the Spirit's gifts empower us for the work of ministry. 3 Lord, you make the common holy: 'This my body, this my blood.' Let us all, for earth's true glory, daily lift life heavenward, asking that the world around us share your children's liberty; with the Spirit's gifts empower us for the work of ministry. 4 Lord, you show us love's true measure; 'Father, what they do, forgive.' Yet we hoard as private treasure all that you so freely give. May your care and mercy lead us to a just society; with the Spirit's gifts empower us for the work of ministry. 5 Lord, you bless with words assuring: 'I am with you to the end.' Faith and hope and love restoring, may we serve as you intend, and, amid the cares that claim us, hold in mind eternity; with the Spirit's gifts empower us for the work of ministry.

Glorious Things of You Are Spoken

Author: John Newton Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Gray) #506 (1987) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of you are spoken, Zion, city of our God. He whose word cannot be broken formed you for his own abode. On the Rock of Ages founded, what can shake your sure repose? With salvation's walls surrounded, you may smile at all your foes. 2 See, the streams of living waters, springing from eternal love, well supply your sons and daughters and all fear of want remove. Who can faint while such a river ever will their thirst assuage? Grace which, like the Lord, the giver, never fails from age to age. 3 Round each habitation hovering, see the cloud and fire appear for a glory and a covering, showing that the Lord is near. Thus deriving from their banner light by night and shade by day, safe they feed upon the manna which God gives them on their way. 4 Savior, since of Zion's city I through grace a member am, let the world deride or pity, I will glory in your name. Fading are the world's best pleasures, all its boasted pomp and show; solid joys and lasting treasures none but Zion's children know.
