Come, O thou traveler unknown
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: The Book of Praise #693 (1997) Lyrics: 1 Come, O thou traveler unknown,
whom still I hold, but cannot see!
My company before is gone,
and I am left alone with thee.
With thee all night I mean to stay,
and wrestle till the break of day.
With thee all night I mean to stay,
and wrestle till the break of day.
2 I need not tell thee who I am,
my misery or sin declare;
thyself hast called me by my name,
look on thy hands and read it there.
But who, I ask thee, who art thou?
Tell me thy name, and tell me now.
But who, I ask thee, who art thou?
Tell me thy name, and tell me now.
3 Yield to me now for I am weak,
but confident in self-despair!
Speak to my heart, in blessing speak;
be conquered by my instant prayer.
Speak, or thou never hence shalt move,
and tell me if thy name is Love.
Speak, or thou never hence shalt move,
and tell me if thy name is Love.
4 'Tis Love!'tis Love! thou diedst for me,
I hear thy whisper in my heart.
The morning breaks, the shadows flee;
pure, universal love thou art.
To me, to all, thy mercies move;
thy nature and thy name is Love.
To me, to all, thy mercies move;
thy nature and thy name is Love. Topics: God Mercy of; God Love and Grace of; One Life in Christ Love; Prayer / Prayers / Poems; Salvation; Sin / Sinner; Struggle Scripture: Genesis 32:22-32 Languages: English Tune Title: CANDLER

O Day of Peace That Dimly Shines
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr. Hymnal: Chalice Hymnal #711 (1995) Meter: 8.8.8.8 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. Topics: God's World Consummation; God's World Consummation; Consummation; Jesus Christ: Reign; Justice; Peace on Earth; Hope Scripture: Isaiah 11:6-9 Languages: English Tune Title: CANDLER
O Day of Peace That Dimly Shines
O God, You Gave Your Servant John
Author: Joy F. Patterson Hymnal: Voices United #718 (1996) Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Lyrics: 1 O Lord, you gave your servant John
a vision of the world to come:
a radiant city filled with light,
where you with us will make your home;
where neither grief nor pain shall dwell,
since former things have passed away,
and where they need no sun nor moon;
your glory lights eternal day.
2 Our cities wear great shrouds of pain;
beneath our gleaming towers of wealth
the homeless crouch in rain and snow,
the poor cry out for strength and health.
Youth’s hope is dimmed by ignorance;
unwilling, workers idled stand;
indifference walks unheeding by
as hunger stretches out its hand.
3 Come, Lord, make real John’s vision fair;
come, dwell with us, make all things new;
we try in vain to save our world
unless our help shall come from you.
Come, strengthen us to live in love;
bid hatred, greed, injustice cease.
Your glory all the light we need,
let all our cities shine forth peace.

When Christ Was Born In Bethlehem
Author: Grace W. Davis Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13049 Lyrics: 1 When Christ was born in Bethlehem,
Uncrowned with royal diadem,
The child within the manger lay,
No room within the inn that day;
No room for Christ, the Holy Child,
No room for Christ, the meek and mild
Though ages since have come and gone,
So many crowd out God’s dear Son.
2 No room for Christ has wayward youth,
And heedless hearts turn from His truth;
By business, pleasure crowded out,
And life is spent in darkness, doubt;
If for Him here there is no room,
How dread at last will be the doom;
Forever banished from Him there,
In deep, unspeakable despair. Languages: English Tune Title: PAVLOVIC
