God Weeps
Author: Shirley Erena Murray, 1931- Hymnal: Community of Christ Sings #212 (2013) Meter: 6.4.8.10 Topics: Oppression First Line: God weeps at love withheld Lyrics: 1 God weeps at love withheld,
at strength misused,
at children's innocence abused,
and till we change the way we love, God weeps.
2 God bleeds at anger's fist,
at trust betrayed,
at women battered and afraid,
and till we change the way we win, God bleeds.
3 God cries at hungry mouths,
at running sores,
at creatures dying without cause,
and till we change the way we care, God cries.
4 God waits for stones to melt,
for peace to seed,
for hearts to hold each other's need,
and till we understand the Christ, God waits. Scripture: 2 Corinthians 1:3-5 Languages: English Tune Title: DAKE

The City Is Alive, O God
Author: William W. Reid Jr Hymnal: Lift Up Your Hearts #278 (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Poverty and Oppression Lyrics: 1 The city is alive, O God,
with sound of hustling feet,
with rapid change and flashing lights
that pulse through every street;
but oft there's inhumanity
behind the bright facade,
and throngs with empty, hungering hearts
cry out for help, O God.
2 Is it your will, O loving God,
that races live in strife,
that loneliness and greed and hate
should mark a city's life?
Do you desire one person's wealth
to keep another poor?
Must crime and slums and lust abound?
O Lord, is there no cure?
3 In Galilee the people heard
your servant Christ declare
through healing touch, through word and cross,
the good news of your care.
He said your heart touched every heart
that longed for peace and right,
that those bowed down by burdens borne
could find your life, your light.
4 O God, inspire your church today
to take Christ's servant role,
to love the world, to hear its claims
to sense its yearning soul,
to live within the marketplace,
to serve both weak and strong,
to lose itself, to share its dream,
to give the world its song. Scripture: Matthew 10:39 Languages: English Tune Title: STAR OF COUNTY DOWN
The City Is Alive, O God

lifting and blessing the weak and reviled,
welcoming those the devout turned away:
Jesus, we need your example today.
2 Take from us prejudice, hatred, and scorn,
fear and suspicion of anyone born
outside our fences of money and race:
help us, O God, not to shun but embrace.
3 Open our hearts and our heads and our hands,
let us experience how caring expands
past all the labels and limits we learn:
Spirit of mercy, enlarge our concern.
4 Three-personed Mystery, multiple One,
joined by diversity never undone:
may we more truly your image reveal,
coming together to make your love real.
