We sing your praise, eternal God

Author: Alan Gaunt (b. 1935) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #574 (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Justice and Peace Lyrics: 1 We sing your praise, eternal God, to whom all praise belongs; but we can never match your love, however loud our songs: 2 Your love which comes so silently, through all the noise we hear; the noise of quarrelling and war, the cries of grief and fear. 3 The winds of doubt uproot our faith, the earthquakes of despair destroy our hope, and fires of hate kill love and stifle prayer. 4 And yet no sound on earth can drown the silence we have heard; the voice of your eternal love; the silence of your Word. 5 It comes to guilty, broken hearts, with challenge and release; prepares us for self-sacrifice and speaks eternal peace.

Great God of Earth and Heaven

Author: Shirley Erena Murray Hymnal: The New Century Hymnal #579 (1995) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Justice and Peace Lyrics: 1 Great God of earth and heaven whose Spirit is our breath, at Christmastime born human, at Easter shared our death: All-generous, all-loving, in whom all beauty thrives - forgive your sons and daughters the comfort of our lives! 2 While refugees go homeless and die before they live, while children have no future - our apathy forgive! Where hope fades to depression, despair erodes the soul, restore in us a passion to make the broken whole. 3 Where hunger kills your people, injustice cries aloud, while weapons grow more lethal and only power stands proud - God of our flesh and fiber, whose mercy does not cease, implant your mind within us, create a world for peace!
