Gather us in, thou Love that fillest all!

Gather our rival faiths within thy fold! Rend all our temple veils and bid them fall, that we may know that thou hast been of old; gather us in. 2 Gather us in: we worship only thee; in varied names we stretch a common hand; in diverse forms a common soul we see; in many ships we seek one spirit-land; gather us in. 3 Each sees one colour of thy rainbow light; each looks upon one tint and calls it heaven; thou art the fullness of our partial sight; we are not perfect till we find the seven; gather us in. 4 Some seek a Father in the heavens above, some ask a human image to adore, some crave a spirit vast as life and love; within thy mansions we have all and more; gather us in.

God of Grace and God of Glory

Author: Harry Emerson Fosdick Hymnal: Voices Together #716 (2020) Topics: Crisis Local, National, Global Lyrics: 1 God of grace and God of glory, on thy people pour thy pow’r. Crown thine ancient church’s story, bring its bud to glorious flow’r. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage, for the facing of this hour, for the facing of this hour. 2 Lo! the hosts of evil round us scorn thy Christ, assail his ways! From the fears that long have bound us, free our hearts to faith and praise. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage, for the living of these days, for the living of these days. 3 Cure thy children’s warring madness; bend our pride to thy control; shame our wanton, selfish gladness, rich in things and poor in soul. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage, lest we miss thy kingdom’s goal, lest we miss thy kingdom’s goal. 4 Save us from weak resignation to the evils we deplore. Let the search for thy salvation be our glory evermore. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage, serving thee whom we adore, serving thee whom we adore. Scripture: Esther 4:14 Tune Title: CWM RHONDDA

O day of peace that dimly shines

Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., 1944 Hymnal: The Book of Praise #732 (1997) Topics: National Occasions Lyrics: 1 O day of peace that dimly shines through all our hopes and prayers and dreams, guide us to justice, truth and love, delivered from our selfish schemes. May swords of hate fall from our hands, our hearts from envy find release, till by God’s grace our warring world shall see Christ’s promised reign of peace. 2 Then shall the wolf dwell with the lamb, nor shall the fierce devour the small; as beasts and cattle calmly graze, a little child shall lead them all. Then enemies shall learn to love, all creatures find their true accord; the hope of peace shall be fulfilled, for all the earth shall know the Lord. Scripture: Isaiah 2:2-4 Languages: English Tune Title: JERUSALEM
