God the omnipotent!
Author: Henry F. Chorley; John Ellerton Hymnal: CH1995 #679 (1995) Meter: 11.10.11.9 First Line: God the omnipotent! Boldly ordaining Lyrics: 1 God the omnipotent! Boldly ordaining
thunder and lightning your strength to display,
bring forth compassion where violence is reigning:
give to us peace in our time, we pray.
2 God, the all-merciful! Earth has forsaken
all you make holy, and slighted your way;
bid not your wrath in its terrors awaken:
give to us peace in our time, we pray.
3 God the all-righteous one! Earth has defiled you,
yet to eternity stands what you say;
falsehood and wrong shall not tarry beside you:
give to us peace in our time, we pray.
4 God the all-provident! By your great chastening
earth shall see freedom and truth holding sway;
through the thick darkness your reign is still hastening:
you will give peace in your time, we pray. Topics: God's World Peace on Earth; God's World Peace on Earth; God: Power; God: Providence; Peace on Earth Languages: English Tune Title: RUSSIAN HYMN

O God of Every Nation
Author: William Watkins Reid Hymnal: CH1995 #680 (1995) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 O God of every nation,
of every race and land,
redeem the whole creation
with your almighty hand;
where hate and fear divide us
and bitter threats are hurled,
in love and mercy guide us
and heal our strife-torn world.
2 From search for wealth and power
and scorn of truth and right,
from trust in bombs that shower
destruction through the night,
from pride of race and nation
and blindness to your way,
deliver every nation,
eternal God, we pray.
3 Keep bright in us the vision
of days when war shall cease,
when hatred and division
give way to love and peace,
till dawns the morning glorious
when truth and justice reign
and Christ shall rule victorious
o'er all the world's domain. Topics: God's World Peace on Earth; God's World Peace on Earth; Peace on Earth; Penitence Languages: English Tune Title: NYLAND

O God, We Bear the Imprint of Your Face
Author: Shirley Erena Murray Hymnal: CH1995 #681 (1995) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 O God, we bear the imprint of your face:
the colors of our skin are your design,
and what we have of beauty in our race
as man or woman, you alone define,
who stretched a living fabric on our frame
and gave to each a language and a name.
2 Where we are torn and pulled apart by hate
because our race, our skin is not the same,
while we are judged unequal by the state
and victims made because we own our name,
humanity reduced to little worth,
dishonored is Your living face on earth.
3 O God, we share the image of your Son
whose flesh and blood are ours, whatever skin,
in his humanity we find our own,
and in his family our proper kin:
Christ is the brother we still crucify,
his love the language we must learn, or die. Topics: God's World Dignity and Equality; Dignity and Equality; God: Image; Penitence Languages: English Tune Title: RAUMATI BEACH

Of Women, and of Women's Hopes We Sing
Author: Shirley Erena Murray Hymnal: CH1995 #686 (1995) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 Of women, and of women's hopes we sing:
of sharing in creation's nurturing,
of bearing and of birthing new belief,
of passion for the promises of life.
2 We praise God whose image is our own,
the mystery within our flesh and bone,
the woman-spirit moving through all time
in prophecy, Magnificat and dream.
3 We labor for the commonwealth of God,
and equal as disciples, walk the road,
in work and status, asking what is just,
for sisters of the family of Christ.
4 Forgiving what is past, we seek the new:
a finer justice, and a peace more true,
the promise of empowering for our day
when men and women roll the stone away. Topics: God's World Dignity and Equality; Dignity and Equality; Empowerment; Hope; Women Languages: English Tune Title: SURSUM CORDA

In Christ There Is No East or West
Author: John Oxenham Hymnal: CH1995 #687 (1995) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 In Christ there is no east or west,
in him no south or north,
but one community of love
throughout the whole wide earth.
2 In Christ shall true hearts ev'rywhere
their high communion find;
his service is the golden cord,
close binding humankind.
3 Join hands, disciples of the faith,
whate'er your race may be;
all children of the living God
are surely kin to me.
4 In Christ now meet both east and west,
in him meet south and north:
all loving hearts are one in him
throughout the whole wide earth. Topics: God's World Dignity and Equality; Christian Community; Dignity and Equality; Family Languages: English Tune Title: ST. PETER

We Are Not Our Own
Author: Brian Wren Hymnal: CH1995 #689 (1995) Meter: 8.9.8.5 First Line: We are not our own. Earth forms us Lyrics: 1 We are not our own. Earth forms us,
human leaves on nature's growing vine,
fruit of many generations,
seeds of life divine.
2 We are not alone. Earth names us:
past and present, peoples near and far,
family and friends and strangers
show us who we are.
3 Through a human life God finds us;
dying, living, love is fully known,
and in bread and wine reminds us:
we are not our own.
4 Therefore let us make thanksgiving,
and with justice, willing and aware,
give to earth, and all things living,
liturgies of care.
5 And if love's encounters lead us
on a way uncertain and unknown,
all the saints with prayer surround us:
We are not alone.
6 Let us be a house of welcome,
living stone upholding living stone,
gladly showing all our neighbors
we are not our own! Topics: God's World Unity of Creation; God's World Unity of Creation; Care of the Earth; Justice; Lord's Supper; Stewardship; Unity of Creation Languages: English Tune Title: YARNTON
