O God of Earth and Altar
O God of every nation
Author: William Watkins Reid, Jr., b. 1923 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 32 hymnals Matching Instances: 15 Lyrics: 1 O God of every nation,
of every race and land,
redeem the whole creation
with your almighty hand;
where hate and fear divide us
and bitter threats are hurled,
in love and mercy guide us
and heal our strife-torn world.
2 From search for wealth and power
and scorn of truth and right,
from trust in bombs that shower
destruction through the night,
from pride of race and nation
and blindness to your way,
deliver every nation,
eternal God, we pray!
3 Lord, strengthen all who labor
that we may find release
from fear of rattling saber,
from dread of war's increase;
when hope and courage falter,
your still small voice be heard;
with faith that none can alter,
your servants undergird.
4 Keep bright in us the vision
of days when war shall cease,
when hatred and division
give way to love and peace,
till dawns the morning glorious
when truth and justice reign
and Christ shall rule victorious
o'er all the world's domain.

Rejoice! Rejoice, Believers
Author: Laurentius Laurenti; Sarah Borthwick Findlater Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 334 hymnals Matching Instances: 8 Lyrics:
1 Rejoice! Rejoice, believers,
And let your lights appear;
The evening is advancing
And darker night is near.
The Bridegroom is arising
And soon He will draw nigh;
Up, watch with expectation,
At the midnight comes the cry.
2 See that your lamps are burning,
Replenish them with oil;
Look now for your salvation,
The end of sin and toil.
The marriage feast is waiting,
The gates wide open stand;
Arise, O heirs of glory,
The Bridegroom is at hand!
3 Our hope and expectation,
O Jesus, now appear;
Arise, Thou Sun so longed for,
Above this shadowed sphere!
With hearts and hands uplifted,
We plead, O Lord, to see
The day of earth's redemption,
And ever be with Thee!

"Come unto Me, ye weary"
Author: William Chatterton Dix Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 248 hymnals Matching Instances: 6 Lyrics: 1 "Come unto Me, ye weary,
And I will give you rest."
O blessed voice of Jesus,
Which comes to hearts oppressed!
It tells of benediction,
Of pardon, grace, and peace,
Of joy that hath no ending,
Of love which cannot cease.
2 "Come unto Me, ye wanderers,,
And I will give you light."
O loving voice of Jesus,
Which comes to cheer the night!
Our hearts were filled with sadness,
And we had lost our way;
But He hath brought us gladness
And songs, the break of day.
3 "Come unto Me, ye fainting,
And I will give you life."
O cheering voice of Jesus,
Which comes to aid our strife!
The foe is stern and eager,
The fight is fierce and long;
But Thou hast made us mighty
And stronger than the strong.
4 "And whosoever cometh
I will not cast him out."
O welcome voice of Jesus,
Which drives away our doubt;
Which calls us, very sinners,
Unworthy though we be
Of love so free and boundless,
To come, dear Lord, to Thee!

Lead On, O King Eternal
Author: Ernest W. Shurtleff Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 395 hymnals Matching Instances: 4 Lyrics: 1 Lead on, O King eternal,
The day of march has come;
Henceforth in fields of conquest
Your tents shall be our home:
Through days of preparation
Your grace has made us strong,
And now, O King eternal,
We lift our battle song.
2 Lead on, O King eternal,
Till sin's fierce war shall cease,
And Holiness shall whisper
The sweet Amen of peace;
For not with swords' loud clashing,
Nor roll of stirring drums,
But deeds of love and mercy,
The heavenly kingdom comes.
3 Lead on, O King eternal:
We follow, not with fears;
For gladness breaks like morning
Where'er your face appears;
Thy cross is lifted o'er us;
We journey in its light:
The crown awaits the conquest;
Lead on, O God of might.

A pilgrim and a stranger

A pilgrim and a stranger
I need Thee, precious Jesus!
Author: F. Whitfield, 1829-1904 Appears in 303 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 Lyrics: 1 I need Thee, precious Jesus!
For I am full of sin;
My soul is dark and guilty,
My heart is dead within:
I need the cleansing fountain,
Where I can always flee
The blood of Christ most precious,
The sinner's perfect plea.
2 I need Thee, blessed Jesus!
For I am very poor;
A stranger and a pilgrim,
I have no earthly store:
I need the love of Jesus
To cheer my on my way,
To guide my doubting footsteps,
To be my strength and stay.
3 I need Thee, blessed Jesus!
I need a friend like Thee;
A friend to soothe and sympathize,
A friend to care for me:
I need the heart of Jesus
To feel each anxious care,
To tell my every trouble,
And all my sorrows share. Topics: Christian Needs Christ; The Church and the Kingdom of God Evangelism; Need, of Christ, our; Jesus (See also Christ) Needed Used With Tune: LLANGLOFFAN
