Christ, by Heavenly Hosts Adored
Author: Henry Harbaugh, 1817-67 Hymnal: Christian Worship (1993) #617 (1993) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Topics: Nation; Nation First Line: Christ, by heav'nly hosts adored Lyrics: 1 Christ, by heav'nly hosts adored,
Gracious, mighty, sov'reign Lord,
God of nations, King of kings,
Head of all created things,
By the Church with joy confessed,
God o'er all, forever blest --
Pleading, at your throne we stand:
Save your people, bless our land.
2 On our fields of grass and grain
Send, O Lord, the kindly rain;
O'er our wide and goodly land
Crown the labors of each hand.
Let your kind protection be
O'er our commerce on the sea.
Open, Lord, your bounteous hand;
Bless your people, bless our land.
3 Give us rulers who will be
Known for love and honesty;
Let the pow'rs that you ordained
Be in righteousness maintained.
In the people's hearts increase
Love of piety and peace.
Thus united, we shall stand
One wide, free, and happy land. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. GEORGE’S, WINDSOR
Christ, by Heavenly Hosts Adored
Lord, for the years your love has kept and guided
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith (b. 1926) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #715 (2013) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Topics: National and Remembrance; Nation and Society Lyrics: 1 Lord, for the years your love has kept and guided,
urged and inspired us, cheered us on our way,
sought us and saved us, pardoned and provided,
Lord of the years, we bring our thanks today.
2 Lord, for that word, the word of life which fires us,
speaks to our hearts and sets our souls ablaze,
teaches and trains, rebukes us and inspires us,
Lord of the word, receive your people's praise.
3 Lord, for our land, in this our generation,
spirits oppressed by pleasure, wealth and care;
for young and old, for commonwealth and nation,
Lord of our land, be pleased to hear our prayer.
4 Lord, for our world; when we disown and doubt him,
loveless in strength, and comfortless in pain;
hungry and helpless, lost indeed without him,
Lord of the world, we pray that Christ may reign.
5 Lord, for ourselves; in living power remake us,
self on the cross and Christ upon the throne;
past put behind us, for the future take us,
Lord of our lives, to live for Christ alone. Scripture: Galatians 2:20 Languages: English Tune Title: LORD OF THE YEARS

Our God who reigns above
And rules the world below,
Boundless in pow'r and love.
Our thanks we bring
In joy and praise,
Our hearts we raise
To You, our King!
2 The nation You have blest
May well Your love declare,
From foes and fears at rest,
Protected by Your care.
For this bright day,
For this fair land--
Gifts of Your hand--
Our thanks we pay.
3 May ev'ry mountain height,
Each vale and forest green,
Shine in Your Word's pure light,
And its rich fruits be seen!
May ev'ry tongue
Be tuned to praise
And join to raise
A grateful song.
4 Earth, hear your Maker's voice;
Your great Redeemer own;
Believe, obey, rejoice,
And worship Him alone.
Cast down your pride,
Your sin deplore,
And bow before
The Crucified.
5 And when in pow'r He comes,
Oh, may our native land
From all its rending tombs
Send forth a glorious band,
A countless throng,
With joy to sing
To heav'n's high King
Salvation's song! Scripture: Psalm 145:1 Languages: English Tune Title: DARWALL'S 148TH
Before You, Lord, We Bow

Great King of Nations, Hear Our Prayer
Author: John H. Gurney Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #583 (1941) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Times and Seasons The Nation Lyrics: 1 Great King of nations, hear our prayer
While at Thy feet we fall
And humbly with united cry
To Thee for mercy call.
The guilt is ours, but grace is Thine,
Oh, turn us not away,
But hear us from Thy lofty throne
And help us when we pray.
2 Our fathers’ sins were manifold,
And ours no less we own;
Yet wondrously from age to age
Thy goodness has been shown.
When dangers, like a stormy sea,
Beset our country round,
To Thee we looked, to Thee we cried,
And help in Thee was found.
3 With one consent we meekly bow
Beneath Thy chast'ning hand
And, pouring forth confession meet,
Mourn with our mourning land.
With pitying eye behold our need
As thus we lift our prayer;
Correct us with Thy judgments, Lord,
Then let Thy mercy spare.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 65:2 Languages: English Tune Title: OLD 137TH
