O brother man, fold to thy heart thy brother!

Author: John Greenleaf Whittier, 1807 - 92 Appears in 152 hymnals Topics: City, Nation, World; The Life In Christ Service Lyrics: 1 O brother man, fold to thy heart thy brother! Where pity dwells, the peace of God is there; To worship rightly is to love each other, Each smile a hymn, each kindly deed a prayer. 2 Follow with reverent steps the great example Of him whose holy work was doing good; So shall the wide earth seem our Father's temple, Each loving life a psalm of gratitude. 3 Then shall all shackles fall; the stormy clangor Of wild war-music o'er the earth shall cease; Love shall tread out the baleful fire of anger, And in its ashes plant the tree of peace.

Thou, by heavenly hosts adored

Author: Henry Harbaugh, 1817 - 67 Appears in 50 hymnals Topics: Church Life and Work City, Nation, World Lyrics: 1 Thou, by heavenly hosts adored, Gracious, mighty, sovereign Lord, God of nations, King of kings, Head of all created things, By the Church with joy confest, God o'er all for ever blest; Pleading at thy throne we stand: Save thy people, bless our land. 2 From all public sin and shame, From ambition's grasping aim, From rebellion, war and death, From the pestilential breath, From dread famine's awful stroke, From oppression's galling yoke, From the judgments of thy hand: Spare thy people, spare our land. 3 Let our rulers ever be Men that love and honor thee; Let the powers by thee ordained Be in righteousness maintained; In the people's hearts increase Love of piety and peace; Thus united, we shall stand One wide, free, and happy land.

When shall all hatred cease, As in the realms above? A-men. 3 When comes the promised time That war shall be no more, And lust, oppression, crime, Shall flee thy face before? 4 We pray thee, Lord, arise, And come in thy great might; Revive our longing eyes, Which languish for thy sight. 5 Men scorn thy sacred Name, And wolves devour thy fold; By many deeds of shame We learn that love grows cold. 6 O'er heathen lands afar Thick darkness broodeth yet; Arise, O Morning Star, Arise, and never set! Amen. Used With Tune: ST. CECILIA
