Your hand, O God, has guided

Author: Edward Hayes Plumptre (1821-1891) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7 with refrain Appears in 56 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 22:1-14 Lyrics: 1 Your hand, O God, has guided your flock, from age to age; the wondrous tale is written, full clear, on every page; your people owned your goodness, and we their deeds record: and both of this bear witness: one Church, one Faith, one Lord. 2 Your heralds brought glad tidings to greatest as to least; they summoned all to hasten and share the great King's feast; and this was all their teaching, in every deed and word, to all alike proclaiming: one Church, one Faith, one Lord. 3 Through many a day of darkness, through many a scene of strife, the faithful few fought bravely to guard the nation's life. Their Gospel of redemption, sin pardoned, life restored, was all in this enfolded: one Church, one Faith, one Lord. 4 Your mercy will not fail us, nor leave your work undone; with your right hand to help us, the victory shall be won; by mortals and by angels your name shall be adored, and this shall be our anthem: one Church, one Faith, one Lord.
