When Will People Cease Their Fighting?

Author: Constance Cherry Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 When will people cease their fighting? When will armies wage no war, nations conquer not their neighbour, weapons idle, used no more? When will guns and bombs be silent? When will captives be set free? All creation groans in longing for the world's true liberty. 2 Floods and earthquakes, drought and famine plague the world with awesome ill, but far greater is war's horror caused by human, stubborn will. Blest are those who, working, praying, purpose in their hearts to be instruments of peace, committed to the nations' harmony. 3 As we strive for peace with vigour, hoping to be shown the way, we are strengthened in the knowledge of a future, perfect day; for we know that deeper, richer peace is ours when Christ shall reign: then will all our swords be plowshares and God's children free from pain.

Now we Bring Our Christmas Treasures

Author: Maria H. Bulfinch Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 14 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Now we bring our Christmas treasures, Loving thoughts and deeds we bring. Child-like hearts we gladly offer To the child, the children's King; To the Child, who, in the manger, Lay upon that Christmas morn, When the angels came to tell us That the children's King was born. 2 And He lives, throughout the ages, Lives and reigns in earth and sky; Angel hosts still sing the glory Of the children's King on high. Yet He cares for children's praises; So, with heart and voice we sing: "Glory in the highest glory To the child, the children's King!" Amen. Topics: Christmas Used With Tune: AUSTRIA

Glorious Is Your Name, Most Holy

Author: Ruth Eliiott Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 9 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Glorious is your name, Most Holy, God and Father of us all; We, your servants, bow before you, Strive to answer every call. You with life's great good have blest us, Cared for us from earliest years; Unto you our thanks we render; Your deep love overcomes all fears. 2 For our world of need and anguish We would lift to you our prayer. Faithful stewards of your bounty, May we with our brothers share. In the name of Christ our Savior, Who redeems and sets us free, Gifts we bring of heart and treasure, That our lives may worthier be. 3 In the midst of time we journey; From your hand comes each new day: We would use it in your service, Humbly, wisely, while we may. So to you, Lord and Creator, Praise and honor we accord! Yours the earth and yours the heavens, Through all time the Eternal Word. Amen.
