God of Jeremiah, grieving with an aching heart
Author: Brian Arthur Wren, 1936- Meter: 13.13.7.7.13 Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: National Life Lyrics: 1 God of Jeremiah, grieving with an aching heart
for an empire, unbelieving as it falls apart,
when your thunder goes unheard, we will tend the prophet's word,
and in season, out of season, we will sing your song.
2 When our wound is left to fester, though the pain goes deep,
when we've sown a hundred whirlwinds, but have yet to reap,
when the platitudes of peace only make our fears increase,
with a poem and a story we will sing your song.
3 When the palace looks at poverty with scornful eyes,
when the scroll of truth is shredded by a leader's lies,
when the glory of the cross is a propaganda gloss,
in the square and in the senate we will sing your song.
4 We will break the jar of plenty by the gates of gold,
we will buy a field of promise when the farm is sold,
at the ending of the dream, in the death of self esteem,
at the bank and in the market we will sing your song.
5 We will praise the grainy granite of the Law's demands,
and the Life-creating, Lover-God with wounded hands;
we will spin your story-line to an empire in decline
and in exile or in honour we will sing your song. Scripture: 2 Timothy 4:1-5 Used With Tune: KELVIN GROVE

Sustaining trust, discerning sight,
The homage of the loyal heart,
The steadfast courage for the right.
3 Within our Congress let the fire
Of patriotic love abide;
Its counsels lead, its acts inspire,
And in the nation's halls preside.
4 Upon our Judges let the seal
Of thy divine anointing be--
The wisdom calm, the righteous zeal,
The robes of truth and equity.
5 God of our fathers, let thy face
Toward the Republic ever be!
Encompass it with strength and grace,
And law combine with liberty.
God of our fathers, let thy face

Saviour, sprinkle many nations
Author: Bp. A. C. Coxe, 1818-1896 Appears in 161 hymnals Topics: Nations Submitting to God Lyrics: 1 Saviour, sprinkle many nations,
Fruitful let Thy sorrows be;
By Thy pains and consolations
Draw the Gentiles unto Thee;
Of Thy cross the wondrous story
Be to all the nations told;
Let them see Thee in Thy glory,
And Thy mercy manifold.
2 Far and wide, though all unknowing,
Yearns for Thee each mortal breast;
Human tears for Thee are flowing,
Human hearts in Thee would rest;
Thirsting, as for dews of even,
As the new-mown grass for rain,
Thee they seek, as God of heaven,
Thee, as man for sinners slain.
3 Saviour, lo! the isles are waiting,
Stretched the hand and strained the sight,
For Thy Spirit, new creating,
Love's pure flame, and wisdom's light;
Give the Word and of the preacher
Speed the foot, and touch the tongue,
Till on earth by every creature
Glory to the Lamb be sung. Used With Tune: SANCTUARY
Saviour, sprinkle many nations
