Lord, for the years your love has kept and guided

urged and inspired us, cheered us on our way,
sought us and saved us, pardoned and provided,
Lord of the years, we bring our thanks today.
2 Lord, for that word, the Word of life which fires us,
speaks to our hearts and sets our souls ablaze,
teaches and trains, rebukes us and inspires us,
Lord of the word, receive your people's praise.
3 Lord, for our land, in this our generation,
spirits oppressed by pleasure, wealth and care;
for young and old, for this and every nation,
Lord of our land, be pleased to hear our prayer.
4 Lord, for our world; when we disown and doubt him,
loveless in strength, and comfortless in pain;
hungry and helpless, lost indeed without him,
Lord of the world, we pray that Christ may reign.
5 Lord, for ourselves; in living power remake us,
self on the cross and Christ upon the throne;
past put behind us, for the future take us,

Author: Rev. Frederick L. Hosmer Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 72 hymnals Topics: Special Occasions The Nation First Line: "O Beautiful! My Country!" Lyrics: 1. "O Beautiful! My Country!"
Be thine a nobler care
Than all thy wealth of commerce,
Thy harvests waving fair:
Be it thy pride to lift up
The manhood of the poor;
Be thou to the oppressed
Fair Freedom's open door!
2. For thee our fathers suffered,
For thee they toiled and prayed;
Upon the nation's altar
Their willing lives they laid;
Thou hast no common birthright,
Grand mem'ries on thee shine;
The blood of pilgrim nations
Commingled flows in thine.
3. O Beautiful! Our Country!
Round thee in love we draw;
Thine is the grace of freedom,
The majesty of law:
Be righteousnes thy scepter,
Justice thy diadem;
And on thy shining forehead
Be peace the crowning gem! Used With Tune: FARMER
O Beautiful! My Country!
