with his mercy he may shield us,
and with words of love draw near.

Light of the village life from day to day;
shines revealed through ev'ry task most lowly,
the Christ of God, the Life, the Truth, the Way.

with all the list'ning people gathered round;
while birds and flow'rs and sky above are preaching
the blessedness which simple trust has found.

that joyful evening when the sun was set;
divine and human, in his deep revealing
of God made flesh, in loving service meet.
5 We would see Jesus; in the early morning,
still, as of old he calleth, "Follow me";
let us arise, all meaner service scorning;
Lord, we are thine; we give ourselves to thee.

Turn Back, O Man, Forswear Thy Foolish Ways
Author: Clifford Bax Meter: 10.10.10.10.10 Appears in 60 hymnals Scripture: Mark 1:15 Lyrics: 1 Turn back, O man, forswear thy foolish ways.
Old now is earth, and none may count her days,
Yet thou, her child, whose head is crowned with flame,
Still wilt not hear thine inner God proclaim—
"Turn back, O man, forswear thy foolish ways."
2 Earth might be fair and all men glad and wise.
Age after age their tragic empires rise,
Built while they dream, and in that dreaming weep:
Would man but wake from out his haunted sleep,
Earth might be fair and all men glad and wise.
3 Earth shall be fair, and all her people one:
Nor till that hour shall God's whole will be done.
Now, even now, once more from earth to sky,
Peals forth in joy man's old, undaunted cry—
"Earth shall be fair, and all her folk be one!"
Amen. Topics: God Kingdom; Peace on Earth; World Friendship and Peace; Kingdom of God on Earth, The World Friendship and Peace Used With Tune: OLD 124TH
