When God Delivered Israel (Psalm 126)
Author: Michael A. Saward Hymnal: Glory to God #73 (2013) Meter: 7.6.7.7.6.6 Topics: The Life of the Nations First Line: When God delivered Israel Lyrics: 1 When God delivered Israel
from bondage long ago,
they thought that they were dreaming,
but soon they turned to laughing
and sang the song of joy,
and sang the song of joy.
2 The godless nations round them
could not deny that power;
they cried, "O see this marvel!"
"God's work," replied the people,
and so they sang for joy,
and so they sang for joy.
3 O God, restore our nation;
come, irrigate dry souls,
that those who sow in sadness
may reap their sheaves with gladness
and sing the song of joy,
and sing the song of joy.

When God Delivered Israel (Psalm 126)
Hark! the herald angels sing
Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #224 (1899) Topics: Christ Desire of the Nations Lyrics: 1 Hark! The herald angels sing,
Glory to the newborn King;
Peace on earth, and mercy mild,
God and sinners reconciled!
Joyful, all ye nations, rise;
Join the triumphs of the skies;
With th'angelic host proclaim,
Christ is born in Bethlehem.
Refrain:
Hark! The herald angels sing,
Glory to the new born King.
2 Mild He lays His glory by;
Born that man no more may die;
Born to raise the sons of earth;
Born to give them second birth.
Hail the heaven-born Prince of Peace!
Hail the Sun of Righteousness!
Light and life to all He brings,
Risen with healing in His wings. [Refrain]
3 Let us then with angels sing,
"Glory to the new-born King!--
Peace on earth, and mercy mild;
God and sinners reconciled!"
Come, Desire of nations, come,
Fix in us Thy humble home;
O, to all Thyself impart,
Formed in each believing heart! [Refrain]
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: MENDELSSOHN

O Beautiful! My Country!
Author: Rev. Frederick L. Hosmer Hymnal: The New Christian Hymnal #355 (1929) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Special Occasions The Nation First Line: "O Beautiful! My Country!" Lyrics: 1. "O Beautiful! My Country!"
Be thine a nobler care
Than all thy wealth of commerce,
Thy harvests waving fair:
Be it thy pride to lift up
The manhood of the poor;
Be thou to the oppressed
Fair Freedom's open door!
2. For thee our fathers suffered,
For thee they toiled and prayed;
Upon the nation's altar
Their willing lives they laid;
Thou hast no common birthright,
Grand mem'ries on thee shine;
The blood of pilgrim nations
Commingled flows in thine.
3. O Beautiful! Our Country!
Round thee in love we draw;
Thine is the grace of freedom,
The majesty of law:
Be righteousnes thy scepter,
Justice thy diadem;
And on thy shining forehead
Be peace the crowning gem! Languages: English Tune Title: FARMER
O Beautiful! My Country!
We Wait the Peaceful Kingdom
Author: Kathleen R. Moore Hymnal: Glory to God #378 (2013) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: The Life of the Nations Lyrics: 1 We wait the peaceful kingdom,
when wolf and lamb shall lie
in gentleness and friendship
without a fear or sigh,
when lion shall be grazing,
when snake shall never strike;
a little child shall lead us
both strong and weak alike.
2 Where is the peaceful kingdom?
When will this new day start?
We long for peace and comfort
to reign within each heart.
Yet not in our lives only,
nor simply in our home:
we pray that all creation
will one day find shalom.
3 When wars of desolation
and hate come to an end,
when nation meets with nation
and calls the other "friend,"
still peace in all its fullness
will only have begun:
shalom for all creation
begins with justice done.
4 That little child shall lead us
to walk the chosen way,
to share the peaceful kingdom,
to greet God's newborn day.
The child born in a stable
is sent to break our chains,
to bring through word and table
the day when justice reigns. Scripture: Isaiah 2:2-4 Languages: English Tune Title: MERLE’S TUNE

Through storm and night:

By Thy great might.

To God above the skies;
On Him we wait;
Thou who art ever nigh,
Guarding with watchful eye,
To Thee aloud we cry,
God save the State!

But be God's mercies shown
From shore to shore;
And may the nations see
That men should brothers be,
And form one family
The wide world o'er.

Author: Rev. Henry Scott Holland (1847-1918) Hymnal: The Hymnal #417 (1950) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth The Nation; Nation, The Lyrics: 1 Judge eternal, throned in splendor,
Lord of lords and Kings of kings,
With Thy living fire of judgment
Purge this realm of bitter things:
Solace all its wide dominion
With the healing of Thy wings.
2 Still the weary folk are pining
For the hour that brings release;
And the city's crowded clangor
Cries aloud for sin to cease;
And the homesteads and the woodlands
Plead in silence for their peace.
3 Crown, O God, Thine own endeavor:
Cleave our darkness with Thy sword:
Feed the faint and hungry peoples
With the richness of Thy Word:
Cleanse the body of this nation
Through the glory of the Lord.

Author: Gilbert K. Chesterton Hymnal: The Hymnal #419 (1950) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth The Nation; Nation, The Lyrics: 1 O God of earth and altar,
Bow down and hear our cry;
Our earthly rulers falter,
Our people drift and die;
The walls of gold entomb us,
The swords of scorn divide;
Take not Thy thunder from us,
But take away our pride.
2 From all that terror teaches,
From lies of tongue and pen;
From all the easy speeches
That comfort cruel men;
From sale and profanation
Of honor and the sword;
From sleep and from damnation,
Deliver us, good Lord!
3 Tie in a living tether
The priest and prince and thrall;
Bind all our lives together,
Smite us and save us all;
In ire and exultation
Aflame with faith, and free,
Lift up a living nation,
A single sword to Thee.
Amen. Tune Title: LLANGLOFFAN
