Author: Brian Wren, b. 1936 Hymnal: RitualSong #623 (1996) Hymnal Title: RitualSong Lyrics: 1 God is One, unique and holy,
endless dance of love and light,
only source of mind and body,
star-cloud, atom, day and night:
ev'ry thing that is or could be
tells God's anguish and delight.
2 God is Oneness-by-Communion,
never distant or alone,
at the heart of all belonging:
loyal friendship, loving home,
common mind and shared agreement,
common loaf and sung Shalom.
3 Through the pain that loving Wisdom
could foresee, but not forestall,
God is One, though torn and anguished
in the Christ's forsaken call;
One through death and resurrection;
One in Spirit, One for all. Topics: Eucharist; Evening; Friendship; Light; Love of God for Us; Trinity Languages: English Tune Title: [God is One, unique and holy]
