God, Give Me Time

Author: Shirley Erena Murray Hymnal: Voices Together #144 (2020) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Scripture: James 3 First Line: God, give me time to learn the words Lyrics: 1 God, give me time to learn the words I find so hard to say: the loving words, forgiving words that take the sting away. God, give me calm to ride the storm when waves of anger rise, a moment when I grasp a truth my lesser self denies. 2 God, give me time to deal with words that threaten and destroy: the easy words of politics that kill creation’s joy; the speeches that proliferate economies of greed; the thieves of children’s heritage, the poison in the seed. 3 God, give me time to meet your Word, transforming as I go my little world, my larger world, by all I do and know; encountering in others’ faith the wisdom and the grace that Jesus Christ was born to bring, and gave a human face.
