Help us accept each other

Author: Frederik Herman Kaan, 1929- Hymnal: Together in Song #648 (1999) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Forgiveness Lyrics: 1 Help us accept each other as Christ accepted us; teach us as sister, brother, each person to embrace. Be present, Lord, among us and bring us to believe we are ourselves accepted, and meant to love and live. 2 Teach us, O Lord, your lessons, as in our daily life we struggle to be human and search for hope and faith. Teach us to care for people, for all, not just for some, to love them as we find them or as they may become. 3 Let your acceptance change us, so that we may be moved in living situations to do the truth in love; to practice your acceptance until we know by heart the table of forgiveness, and laughter's healing art. 4 Lord, for today's encounters with all who are in need, who hunger for acceptance, for righteousness and bread, we need new eyes for seeing, new hands for holding on: renew us with your Spirit; Lord, free us, make us one!

Where hate and fear divide us And bitter threats are hurled, In love and mercy guide us And heal our strife-torn world. 2 From search for wealth and power And scorn of truth and right, From trust in bombs that shower Destruction through the night, From pride of race and station And blindness to your way, Deliver ev'ry nation, Eternal God, we pray. 3 Lord, strengthen those who labor That all may find release From fear of rattling saber, From dread of war's increase. When hope and courage falter, Lord, let your voice be heard; With faith that none can alter, Your servants undergird. 4 Keep bright in us the vision Of days when war shall cease, When hatred and division Give way to love and peace, Till dawns the morning glorious When truth and justice reign, And Christ shall rule victorious O'er all the world's domain.
