Deep in the shadows of the past
Author: Brian A. Wren, 1936- Hymnal: The Book of Praise #510 (1997) Scripture: Hebrews 11:3-10 Lyrics: 1 Deep in the shadows of the past,
far out from settled lands,
some nomads traveled with their God
across the desert sands.
The dawning hope of humankind
by them was sensed and shown:
a promise calling them ahead,
a future yet unknown.
2 While others bowed to changeless gods,
they met a mystery,
invisible, without a name:
"I AM WHAT I WILL BE";
and by their tents, around their fires
in story, song and law,
they praised, remembered, handed on
a past that promised more.
3 From Exodus to Pentecost
the promise changed and grew,
while some, remembering the past,
recorded what they knew,
or with their letters and laments,
their prophecy and praise,
recovered, kindled, and expressed
new hope for changing days.
4 For all the writings that survived,
for leaders long ago,
who sifted, copied and preserved
the Bible that we know,
give thanks, and find its story yet
our promise, strength and call,
the model of emerging faith,
alive with hope for all. Topics: Desert / Wilderness; God Name of; Hope; Law; Mystery; Promise; Prophets; The Bible Languages: English Tune Title: KINGSFOLD

It Is God Who Holds the Nations
Author: Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #495 (1985) Meter: 15.15.15.7 Scripture: Hebrews 11:10 First Line: It is God who holds the nations in the hollow of his hand Lyrics: 1 It is God who hold the nations in the hollow of his hand;
it is God whose light is shining in the darkness of the land;
it is God who builds his City on the Rock and not on sand:
may the living God be praised!
2 It is God whose purpose summons us to use the present hour,
who recalls us to our senses when a nation's life turns sour;
in the discipline of freedom we shall know his saving power:
may the living God be praised!
3 When a thankful nation, looking back, has cause to celebrate
those who win our admiration by their service to the state,
when self-giving is a measure of the greatness of the great,
may the living God be praised!
4 God reminds us every sunrise that the world is ours on lease -
for the sake of life tomorrow may our love for it increase;
may all races live together, share its riches, be at peace:
may the living God be praised! Topics: City of God; God Light; Memorial Day Languages: English Tune Title: VISION (Davies)
