Lord God of hosts, whose mighty hand

Author: John Oxenham, 1852 - 1941 Appears in 26 hymnals Topics: Church Life and Work City, Nation, World Lyrics: 1 Lord God of hosts, whose mighty hand Dominion holds on sea and land, In peace and war thy will we see Shaping the larger liberty; Nations may rise and nations fall, Thy changeless purpose rules them all. 2 For those who weak and broken lie In weariness and agony, Great Healer, to their beds of pain Come, touch, and make them whole again. O hear a people's prayers, and bless Thy servants in their hour of stress. A-men. 3 For those to whom the call shall come, We pray thy tender welcome home; The toil, the bitterness, all past, We trust them to thy love at last. O hear a people's prayers for all Who, nobly striving, nobly fall. 4 For those who minister and heal, And spend themselves, their skill, their zeal; Renew their hearts with Christ-like faith, And guard them from disease and death; And in thine own good time, Lord, send Thy peace on earth till time shall end. Amen. Used With Tune: VATER UNSER

We've no abiding city here; Sad truth, were this to be our home; But let this thought our spirits cheer, We seek a city yet to come, We seek a city yet to come. 2. We've no abiding city here, We seek a city out of sight; Zion its name, the Lord is there, It shines with ever lasting light, It shines with ever lasting light. 3. O sweet abode of peace and love, Where pilgrims freed from toil, are blest! Had I the pinions of a dove, I'd fly to thee, and be at rest, I'd fly to thee, and be at rest. 4. But hush, my soul! nor dare repine; The time my God appoints is best; While here, to do his will be mine, And his to fix my time of rest, And his to fix my time of rest. Used With Tune: ANDRE
