Son of God, eternal Saviour
Author: Somerset Corry Lowry, 1855-1932 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 62 hymnals Scripture: Luke 6:32-36 Lyrics: 1 Son of God, eternal Saviour,
source of life and truth and grace,
Son of Man, whose birth incarnate
hallows all our human race,
Christ our Head, who throned in glory
for your own will ever plead,
fill us with your love and pity,
heal our wrongs, and help our need.
2 As you, Lord, have lived for others
so may we for others live;
freely have your gifts been granted,
freely may your servants give:
yours the gold and yours the silver,
yours the wealth of sea and land,
we but stewards of your bounty
held in trust as from your hand.
3 Come, O Christ, and reign among us
King of love and Prince of peace;
hush the storm of strife and passion,
bid its cruel discords cease;
by your patient years of toiling,
by your silent hours of pain,
quench our fevered thirst of pleasure,
shame our selfish greed of gain.
4 Son of God, eternal Saviour,
source of life and truth and grace,
Son of Man, whose birth incarnate
hallows all our human race,
in your love you prayed the Father
that your people should be one:
grant, O Christ, our hope's fruition,
here on earth your will be done. Topics: Ascension; Ecology; Jesus Christ Incarnation; Jesus Christ Priesthood and Intercession; Repentance; Saints Days and Holy Days St Matthew; Stewardship; Unity of Humanity Used With Tune: POND STREET

Stephen P. Starke
b. 1955 Person Name: Stephen P. Starke, b. 1955 Scripture: Luke 6:20-23 Author of "Jesus Sat with His Disciples" in Lutheran Service Book Rev. Stephen P. Starke has always had a heart for hymns. At a young age, Starke played hymns out of The Lutheran Hymnal and read through the hymnal to pass the time before Sunday services.
Pastor Starke graduated from Concordia University Chicago with a BA. While completing his MDiv from Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort Wayne, Indiana, he attempted his first hymn text and was encouraged to write more. Since that time, he has written more than 175 hymns inspired by music and the Scriptures. He has been commissioned to write hymns for special occasions, including the 125th anniversary of Concordia University Wisconsin, as well as his daughter’s wedding.
Because of his extensive work as a hymnwriter, Pastor Starke received an honorary doctor of letters degree from Concordia University, Irvine, California, and an honorary doctor of divinity degree from Concordia University Wisconsin in Mequon.
It is through the medium of hymns that Pastor Starke desires to preserve and pass on the truths of the Gospel for generations to come.
