God of the Prophets

Author: Denis Wortman Hymnal: The Hymnal of The Evangelical United Brethren Church #321 (1957) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Scripture: 2 Kings 2:13-15 First Line: God of the prophets, bless the prophets' sons Lyrics: 1 God of the prophets, bless the prophets' sons; Elijah's mantle o'er Elisha cast. Each age its solemn task may claim but once; Make each one nobler, stronger than the last. 2 Anoint them prophets! Make their ears attent To Thy divinest speech; their hearts awake To human need; their lips make eloquent To gird the right, and every evil break. 3 Anoint them priests! Strong intercessors they For pardon and for charity and peace! Ah, if with them the world might, now astray, Pass into Christ's pure life of sacrifice! 4 Make them apostles, heralds of Thy cross! Forth may they go to tell all realms Thy grace. Inspired of Thee may they count all but loss, And stand at last with joy before Thy face. Amen. Tune Title: TOULON
