Gentle God, When We Are Driven

Author: Shirley Erena Murray Hymnal: Voices Together #150 (2020) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Topics: Forgiveness; Forgiveness From God Lyrics: 1 Gentle God, when we are driven past the limits of our love, when our hurt would have a weapon and the hawk destroy the dove, at the cost of seeming weak, help us turn the other cheek. 2 Gentle Spirit, when our reason clouds in anger, twists in fear, when we strike instead of soothing, when we bruise and sting and smear, cool our burning, take our pain, bring us to ourselves again. 3 In the mirror of earth’s madness let us see our ravaged face, in the turmoil of all people let compassion find a place, touch our hearts to make amends, see our enemies as friends. 4 Let our strength be in forgiving as forgiven we must be, one to one in costly loving, finding trust and growing free, gentle God, be our release, gentle Spirit, teach us peace. Scripture: Isaiah 50:4-9 Tune Title: TAWA

Coxe Hymnal: Laudes Domini #153 (1890) Topics: Forgiveness Of Injuries; Forgiveness Of Injuries First Line: How beauteous were the marks divine Lyrics: 1 How beauteous were the marks divine, That in thy meekness used to shine, That lit thy lonely pathway, trod In wondrous love, O Son of God! 2 Oh, who like thee, so calm, so bright, So pure, so made to live in light? Oh, who like thee did ever go So patient through a world of woe? 3 Oh, who like thee so humbly bore The scorn, the scoffs of men, before? So meek, forgiving, godlike, high, So glorious in humility? 4 Even death, which sets the prisoner free, Was pang, and scoff, and scorn to thee; Yet love through all thy torture glowed, And mercy with thy life-blood flowed. 5 Oh, in thy light be mine to go, Illuming all my way of woe! And give me ever on the road To trace thy footsteps, Son of God. Languages: English

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Gray) #256 (1987) Meter: 10.4.10.4.10.10 Topics: Confession and Forgiveness; Forgiveness First Line: Out of the depths I cry to you on high Lyrics: 1 Out of the depths I cry to you on high; Lord, hear my call. Bend down your ear and listen to my sigh, forgiving all. If you should mark our sins, who then could stand? But grace and mercy dwell at your right hand. 2 I wait for God, I trust his holy word; he hears my sighs. My soul still waits and looks unto the Lord; my prayers arise. I look for him to drive away my night– yes, more than those who watch for morning light. 3 Hope in the Lord: unfailing is his love; in him confide. Mercy and full redemption from above he does provide. From sin and evil, mighty though they seem, his arm almighty will his saints redeem. Scripture: Psalm 130 Languages: English Tune Title: SANDON
