God in His Love for Us
Author: Fred Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Hymnal: Worship and Rejoice #37 (2003) Meter: 11.10.11.10 First Line: God in his love for us lent us this planet Lyrics: 1 God in his love for us lent us this planet,
gave it a purpose in time and in space:
small as a spark form the fire of creation,
cradle of life and the home of our race.
2 Thanks be to God for its bounty and beauty,
life that sustains us in body and mind:
plenty for all, if we learn how to share it,
riches undreamed of to fathom and find.
3 Long have our human wars ruined its harvest;
long has earth bowed to the terror of force;
long have we wasted what others have need of,
poisoned the fountain of life at its source.
4 Earth is the Lord's: it is ours to enjoy it,
ours, as his stewards, to farm and defend.
From its pollution, misuse, and destruction,
good Lord, deliver us, world with-out end! Scripture: Psalm 115:19 Languages: English Tune Title: MORNING STAR

Fred Pratt Green
1903 - 2000 Author of "God in His Love for Us" in The Worshiping Church The name of the Rev. F. Pratt Green is one of the best-known of the contemporary school of hymnwriters in the British Isles. His name and writings appear in practically every new hymnal and "hymn supplement" wherever English is spoken and sung. And now they are appearing in American hymnals, poetry magazines, and anthologies.
Mr. Green was born in Liverpool, England, in 1903. Ordained in the British Methodist ministry, he has been pastor and district superintendent in Brighton and York, and now served in Norwich. There he continued to write new hymns "that fill the gap between the hymns of the first part of this century and the 'far-out' compositions that have crowded into some churches in the last decade or more."

Francis, M.A., son of a solicitor, was born May 20,1827, and educated at Winchester School and Trinity College, Cambridge. At Winchester he gained the Heathcote and Duncan prizes, and the Queen's gold medal for an English poem, and was Head Prefect during his last year. He graduated in 1849 as 7th Wrangler, and 11th in the 1st class of the Classical Tripos. In 1850 he was elected a Fellow of his college. Taking Holy Orders in 1852, he was appointed Vicar of Barrington, Cambridge, in 1852, and Select Preacher before the University in 1865. He was also for some time a member of the Board of Theological Studies, and was associated with the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge some 20 years. He died at Surbiton, Sept. 24, 1867. His published works include An Introduction to the Study and the Use of the Psalms; A Revised Translation of the Song of Songs; Ancient Jerusalem; and Psalms and Hymns (Cambridge, Macmillan), 1853.

Of these 28 psalms and 18 hymns are by Mr. Thrupp. The best known of his hymns are, "Awhile in spirit, Lord, to Thee"; "Hail, that head, all torn and wounded"; "O Son of Man, Thyself once crossed." Mr. Thrupp's versions of individual psalms have not come into common use beyond his own collection. They are therein signed with his initials, "J. F.T.," but are not separately annotated in this Dictionary.
