Author: Rev. Samuel Johnson Hymnal: The Hymnal #95 (1950) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Life of ages, richly poured,
Love of God, unspent and free,
Flowing in the prophet’s word,
And the people’s liberty;
2 Breathing in the thinker’s creed;
Pulsing in the hero’s blood;
Nerving simplest thought and deed;
Freshening time with truth and good;
3 Consecrating art and song,
Holy book and pilgrim track;
Hurling floods of tyrant wrong
From the sacred limits back—
4 Life of ages, richly poured,
Love of God, unspent and free,
Flow still in the prophet’s word,
And the people’s liberty!
Amen. Topics: God the Father His Love and Fatherhood; Art and Song Service; Dedication Services Of Memorial Gifts; God Love and Fatherhood, His; Installations Minister of Music; Memorial Days; Musical Services; Nation, The; Social Progress Tune Title: HORSHAM
