O Day of Peace
Author: Carl P. Daw Jr, b. 1944 Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Appears in 22 hymnals Scripture: Revelation 11:15-19 First Line: O day of peace that dimly shines Lyrics: 1 O day of peace that dimly shines
through all our hopes and prayers and dreams,
guide us to justice, truth, and love,
delivered from our selfish schemes.
May swords of hate fall from our hands,
our hearts from envy find release,
till by God’s grace our warring world
shall see Christ’s promised reign of peace.
2 Then shall the wolf dwell with the lamb,
nor shall the fierce devour the small;
as beasts and cattle calmly graze,
a little child shall lead them all.
Then enemies shall learn to love,
all creatures find their true accord;
the hope of peace shall be fulfilled,
for all the earth shall know the Lord. Topics: New Heaven and Earth; World Peace Used With Tune: GRACE

O God, We Kneel Before Your Throne
O God of Every Nation
Author: William W. Reid Jr. Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 32 hymnals Scripture: Revelation 11:15 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 station
and blindness to your way,
deliver every nation,
eternal God, we pray.
3 Lord, strengthen those who labor
that all 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 under-gird.
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. Topics: Christian Year Reign of Christ; Faith; Justice and Reconciliation; The Life of the Nations; Redemption Used With Tune: LLANGLOFFAN
O God of Every Nation
O worship the King, all glorious above
Author: Robert Grant Meter: 10.10.11.11 Appears in 1,140 hymnals Scripture: Revelation 11:15 Lyrics: 1 O worship the King all glorious above,
O gratefully sing his power and his love;
Our Shield and Defender, the Author of Days,
Pavilioned in splendor and girded with praise.
2 O tell of his might, O sing of his grace,
Whose robe is the light, whose canopy space;
His chariots of wrath the deep thunderclouds form,
And dark is His path on the wings of the storm.
3 Thy bountiful care what tongue can recite?
It breathes in the air, it shines in the light,
It streams from the hills, it descends to the plain,
And sweetly distills in the dew and the rain.
4 Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail,
In thee do we trust, nor find thee to fail.
Thy mercies how tender, how firm to the end;
Our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend!
