Where Cross the Crowded Ways of Life

Author: Frank M. North Hymnal: Hymns for the Living Church #514 (1974) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Where cross the crowded ways of life, Where sound the cries of race and clan, Above the noise of selfish strife, We hear Thy voice, O Son of man! 2 In haunts of wretchedness and need, On shadowed thresholds dark with fears, From paths where hide the lures of greed, We catch the vision of Thy tears. 3 The cup of water giv'n for thee Stills holds the freshness of Thy grace; Yet long these multitudes to see The sweet compassion of Thy face. 4 O Master, from the mountain side, Make haste to heal these hearts of pain, Among these restless throngs abide, O tread the city's streets again; 5 Till sons of men shall learn Thy love, And follow where Thy feet have trod; Till glorious from Thy heav'n above Shall come the city of our God. Amen. Topics: Urban Life Scripture: Matthew 10:42 Languages: English Tune Title: GERMANY
