your rule, O Christ, begin;
break with thine iron rod
the tyrannies of sin,
2 Where is your reign of peace
and purity and love?
When shall all hatred cease,
as in the realms above?
3 When comes the promised time,
the end of strife and war;
when lust, oppression, crime
and greed shall be no more?
4 O Lord our God, arise
and come in your great might!
revive our longing eyes
which languish for your sight.
5 As rebels scorn your name
and wolves devour your fold,
by many deeds of shame
we learn that love grows cold.
6 On nations near or far
thick darkness gathers yet:
arise, O Morning Star,
arise and never set! Used With Tune: ST. CECILIA
Your kingdom come, O God!
Dear Lord and Father of Mankind
Author: John Greenleaf Whittier Meter: 8.6.8.8.6 Appears in 539 hymnals Topics: Christian Year Transfiguration Lyrics: 1 Dear Lord and Father of mankind,
forgive our foolish ways;
reclothe us in our rightful mind,
in purer lives thy service find,
in deeper reverence, praise.
2 In simple trust like theirs who heard
beside the Syrian sea
the gracious calling of the Lord,
let us, like them, without a word
rise up and follow thee.
3 O Sabbath rest by Galilee,
O calm of hills above,
where Jesus knelt to share with thee
the silence of eternity,
interpreted by love!
4 Drop thy still dews of quietness,
till all our strivings cease;
take from our souls the strain and stress,
and let our ordered lives confess
the beauty of thy peace.
5 Breathe through the heats of our desire
thy coolness and thy balm;
let sense be dumb, let flesh retire;
speak through the earthquake, wind, and fire,
O still, small voice of calm!
Scripture: 1 Kings 9:1-13 Used With Tune: REST

How Lovely, Lord, How Lovely
Author: Arlo D. Duba Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 19 hymnals Topics: Church Year Transfiguration Lyrics: 1 How lovely, Lord, how lovely
is your abiding place;
my soul is longing, fainting,
to feast upon your grace.
The sparrow finds a shelter,
a place to build her nest,
and so your temple calls us
with in its walls to rest.
2 In your blest courts to worship,
O God, a single day
is better than a thousand
if I from you should stray.
I’d rather keep the entrance
and claim you as my Lord
than revel in the riches
the ways of sin afford.
3 A sun and shield forever
are you, O Lord Most High;
you shower us with blessings;
no good will you deny.
The saints, your grace receiving,
from strength to strength shall go,
and from their life shall rivers
of blessing overflow. Scripture: Psalm 84 Used With Tune: MERLE'S TUNE
