The works of the Lord are created in wisdom

Author: Christopher Idle (b. 1938) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #551 (2013) Meter: 12.11.12.11 Topics: Wisdom Lyrics: 1 The works of the Lord are created in wisdom; we view the earth's wonders and call him to mind: we hear what he says in the world we discover and God shows his glory in all that we find. 2 Not even the angels have ever been granted to tell the full story of nature and grace; but open to God is all human perception, the mysteries of time and the secrets of space. 3 The sun every morning lights up his creation, the moon marks the rhythm of months in their turn; the glittering stars are arrayed in his honour, adorning the years as they ceaselessly burn. 4 The wind is his breath and the clouds are his signal, the rain and the snow are the robes of his choice; the storm and the lightning, his watchmen and heralds, the crash of the thunder, the sound of his voice. 5 The song is unfinished; how shall we complete it, and where find the skill to perfect all God's praise? At work in all places, he cares for all peoples: how great is the Lord to the end of all days! Scripture: Sirach 42 Languages: English Tune Title: STREETS OF LAREDO (THE BARD OF ARMAGH)

Grant us wisdom, grant us courage, for the living of these days. 3 Cure your children’s warring madness, bend our pride to your control; shame our wanton selfish gladness, rich in goods and poor in soul. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage, lest we miss your kingdom's goal. 4 Set our feet on lofty places; gird our lives that they may be armoured with all Christ-like graces, pledged to set all captives free. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage, that we fail not them nor thee. Languages: English Tune Title: RHUDDLAN
