Veiled in Darkness Judah Lay

Author: Douglas LeTell Rights Hymnal: WSH1972 #613 (1972) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Refrain First Line: Peace on earth, peace on earth, goodwill, goodwill to men Lyrics: 1 Veiled in darkness Judah lay, Waiting for the promised day, While across the shadowy night Streamed a flood of glorious light, Heavenly voices chanting then, "Peace on earth, peace on earth, goodwill, goodwill to men." 2 Still the earth in darkness lies. Up from death’s dark vale arise Voices of a world in grief, Prayers of men who seek relief: Now our darkness pierce again, "Peace on earth, peace on earth, goodwill, goodwill to men." 3 Light of light, we humbly pray, Shine upon your world today; Break the gloom of our dark night, Fill our souls with love and light, Send your blessed word again, "Peace on earth, peace on earth, goodwill, goodwill to men." Amen.

Author: John Bowring Hymnal: WSH1972 #617 (1972) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1 Watchman, tell us of the night, What its signs of promise are.

Traveler, yes; it brings the day, Promised day of Israel. 2 Watchman, tell us of the night, Higher yet that star ascends. Traveler, blessedness and light, Peace and truth, its course portends. Watchman, will its beams alone Gild the spot that gave them birth? Traveler, ages are its own; See, it bursts o'er all the earth! 3 Watchman, tell us of the night, For the morning seems to dawn. Traveler, darkness takes its flight, Doubt and terror are withdrawn. Watchman, let your wanderings cease; Hasten to your quiet home. Traveler, lo, the Prince of Peace, Lo, the Son of God, is come!

Your Love, O God, Has All Mankind Created

In Christ we see love's glory consummated, Your spirit manifests his living power. 2 We bring you, Lord, in fervent intercession The children of your world-wide family; With contrite hearts we offer our confession, For we have sinned against your charity. 3 In pity look upon your children's striving For life and freedom, peace and brotherhood, Till, at the fullness of your truth arriving, We find in Christ the crown of every good. 4 Inspire the church, mid earth's discordant voices, To preach the gospel of her Lord above; Until the day this warring world rejoices To heart the mighty harmonies of love. 5 Until the tidings men have long awaited, From north to south, from east to west shall ring; And all mankind, by Jesus liberated, Proclaims in jubilation Christ is King!
