God of the nations, Who hast led

Author: F. Edwards Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #203 (1920) Lyrics: 1 God of the nations, Who hast led Thy children since the world began, Through doubt and struggle, pain and tears, unfolding Thy eternal plan; From countless hilltops as of old The fire upon the altar flares; Through countless rites, through countless tongues, Men offer their imperfect prayers; Hasten the time of our release, Bring in the reign of truth and peace. 2 O Jesus Christ, Incarnate Son, Who bore our flesh that men might see The Vision of the Perfect Life Fashioned in their humanity; By all Thy words of heavenly truth, By all Thy deeds of mercy wrought, By all the passion of Thy cross, By the redemption Thou hast brought; Hasten the time of our release, Bring in Thy reign of truth and peace. 3 O Holy Spirit, who dost touch The prophets with Thy sacred fire, Eternal Wisdom to whose light All seekers after truth aspire; Behold the warring sons of men, The helpless by the strong oppressed, The truth with error still concealed, The evil grudgingly confessed; Hasten the time of our release, Bring in Thy reign of truth and peace. 4 O God Triune, Thy Church to-day In penitence before Thee kneels, Mourning her years of slothful ease, Her deafness to the world's appeals; Divided where she should be one, Enamoured of a lesser strife, Tithing the mint and cummin while Men perish for the Bread of Life; Hasten the time of our release, Bring in Thy reign of truth and peace. 5 Restore to us the vision, Lord, Descend with fires of Pentecost; Our tongues unloose, our hearts inflame, To preach the Gospel to the lost; Here at Thy feet our prayer is made, Here life and wealth we dedicate; Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, Lord, Thy anointing we await; Hasten the time of our release, Bring in Thy reign of truth and peace.

You Righteous, in the Lord Rejoice

Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #43 (1990) Meter: 8.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 You righteous, in the Lord rejoice; it well becomes the good man's voice to sing Jehovah's praise. With harp and hymn of gladness sing, your gift of sweetest music bring, to him a new song raise. 2 For upright is Jehovah's word; and all the doings of the Lord in faithfulness are wrought. In justice and in judgment right the Lord does ever take delight; with goodness earth is fraught. 3 Jehovah's word the heav'ns has made, and all the host of them arrayed his breath has caused to be. He rolls the waters heap on heap; he stores away the mighty deep in garners of the sea. 4 Let all the earth Jehovah fear, let all that dwell both far and near in awe before him stand; for, lo, he spoke and it was done, and all, with sovereign pow'r begun, stood fast at his command. 5 He makes the nations' counsels vain, the plans the peoples would maintain are thwarted by his hand. Jehovah's counsel stands secure, his purposes of heart endure, forevermore they stand. 6 O truly is the nation blessed whose God, before the world confessed, Jehovah is alone; and blessed the people are whom he has made his heritage to be, and chosen for his own.
