O God of earth and altar

Author: Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874-1936) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #582 (2013) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Topics: Other Saints and Festivals George, Martyr, Patron of England Lyrics: 1 O God of earth and altar, bow down and hear our cry, our earthly rulers falter, our people drift and die; the walls of gold entomb us, the swords of scorn divide, take not thy thunder from us, but take away our pride. 2 From all that terror teaches, from lies of tongue and pen, from all the easy speeches that comfort cruel men, from sale and profanation of honour and the sword, from sleep and from damnation, deliver us, good Lord! 3 Tie in a living tether the prince and priest and thrall, bind all our lives together, smite us and save us all; in ire and exultation aflame with faith, and free, lift up a living nation, a single sword to thee. Scripture: Proverbs 14:34 Languages: English Tune Title: KING'S LYNN

Glory to God! whose witness-train

Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #671 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Martyr Spirit Lyrics: 1 Glory to God! whose witness-train, Those heroes bold in faith, Could smile on poverty and pain, And triumph even in death. 2 Oh, may that faith our hearts sustain, Wherein they fearless stood, When, in the power of cruel men, They poured their willing blood. 3 God, whom we serve, our God, can save, Can damp the scorching flame, Can build an ark, can smooth the wave. For such as love his name. 4 Lord! if thine arm support us still With its eternal strength, We shall o'ercome the mightiest ill, And conquerors prove at length.

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: Other Saints and Festivals George, Martyr, Patron of England 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
Lord, for the years your love has kept and guided
