Touch the earth lightly
Author: Shirley Erena Murray, 1931- Hymnal: Together in Song #668 (1999) Meter: 5.5.10 D Topics: Unity of Humanity Lyrics: 1 Touch the earth lightly,
use the earth gently,
nourish the life of the world in our care:
gift of great wonder,
ours to surrender,
trust for the children tomorrow will bear.
2 We who endanger,
who create hunger,
agents of death for all creatures that live,
we who would foster
clouds of disaster,
God of our planet, forestall and forgive!
3 Let there be greening,
birth from the burning,
water that blesses and air that is sweet,
health in God's garden,
hope in God's children,
regeneration that peace will complete.
4 God of all living,
God of all loving,
God of the seedling, the snow and the sun,
teach us, deflect us,
Christ re-connect us,
using us gently and making us one. Scripture: Genesis 1:14-31 Languages: English Tune Title: TENDERNESS

it is God whose light is shining in the darkness of the land;
it is God who builds the city on the Rock and not on sand:
may the living God be praised!
2 It is God whose purpose summons us to use the present hour;
who recalls us to our senses when a nation's life turns sour;
in the discipline of freedom we shall know his saving power:
may the living God be praised!
3 When a thankful nation, looking back, has cause to celebrate
those who win our admiration by their service to the state;
when self-giving is a measure of the greatness of the great:
may the living God be praised!
4 God reminds us every sunrise that the world is ours on lease --
for the sake of life tomorrow may our love for it increase;
may all peoples live together, share its riches, be at peace:
may the living God be praised! Scripture: 1 Peter 2:13-17 Languages: English Tune Title: VISION

O Christ, the healer, we have come
Author: Frederick Pratt Green (1903-2000) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #717 (2005) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Unity of Humanity Lyrics: 1 O Christ, the healer, we have come
to pray for health, to plead for friends.
How can we fail to be restored,
when reached by love that never ends?
2 From every ailment flesh endures
our bodies clamour to be freed;
yet in our hearts we would confess
that wholeness is our deepest need.
3 How strong, O Lord, are our desires,
how weak our knowledge of ourselves!
Release in us those healing truths
unconscious pride resists or shelves.
4 In conflicts that destroy our health
we diagnose the world's disease;
our common life declares our ills:
is there no cure, O Christ, for these?
5 Grant that we all, made one in faith,
in your community may find
the wholeness that, enriching us,
shall reach the whole of humankind. Scripture: 1 John 4:7 Languages: English Tune Title: ANGELUS
