O God, our help in ages past
Author: Isaac Watts (1674-1748) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #746 (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Other Saints and Festivals Remembrance Sunday; Remembrance Sunday Lyrics: 1 O God, our help in ages past,
our hope for years to come,
our shelter from the stormy blast,
and our eternal home;
2 Under the shadow of thy throne
thy saints have dwelt secure;
sufficient is thine arm alone,
and our defence is sure.
3 Before the hills in order stood,
or earth received her frame,
from everlasting thou art God,
to endless years the same.
4 A thousand ages in thy sight
are like an evening gone,
short as the watch that ends the night
before the rising sun.
5 Time, like an ever-rolling stream,
bears all its sons away;
they fly forgotten, as a dream
dies at the opening day.
6 O God, our help in ages past,
our hope for years to come,
be thou our guard while troubles last,
and our eternal home. Scripture: Psalm 90 Languages: English Tune Title: ST ANNE
O God, our help in ages past
I vow to thee, my country, all earthly things above
Author: Cecil Arthur Spring-Rice (1859-1918) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #579 (2013) Meter: 13.13.13.13.13.13 Topics: Other Saints and Festivals Remembrance Sunday; Remembrance Sunday Lyrics: 1 I vow to thee, my country, all earthly things above,
entire and whole and perfect, the service of my love:
the love that asks no question, the love that stands the test,
that lays upon the altar the dearest and the best;
the love that never falters, the love that pays the price,
the love that makes undaunted the final sacrifice.
2 And there's another country I've heard of long ago,
most dear to them that love her, most great to them that know;
we may not count her armies, we may not see her King;
her fortress is a faithful heart, her pride is suffering;
and soul by soul and silently her shining bounds increase,
and her ways are ways of gentleness and all her paths are peace. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 13:7 Languages: English Tune Title: THAXTED
I vow to thee, my country, all earthly things above
Eternal God, before whose face we stand
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith (b. 1926) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #577 (2013) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Topics: Remembrance Sunday Lyrics: 1 Eternal God, before whose face we stand,
your earthly children, fashioned by your hand,
hear and behold us, for to you alone
all hearts are open, all our longings known:
so for our world and for ourselves we pray
the gift of peace, O Lord, in this our day.
2 We come with grief, with thankfulness and pride,
to hold in honour those who served and died;
we bring our hurt, our loneliness and loss,
to him who hung forsaken on the cross;
who, for our peace, our pains and sorrows bore,
and with the Father lives for evermore.
3 O Prince of Peace, who gave for us your life,
look down in pity on our sin and strife.
May this remembrance move our hearts to build
a peace enduring, and a hope fulfilled,
when every flag of tyranny is furled
and wars at last shall cease in all the world.
4 From earth's long tale of suffering here below
we pray the fragile flower of peace may grow,
till cloud and darkness vanish from our skies
to see the Sun of Righteousness arise.
When night is past and peace shall banish pain,
all shall be well, in God's eternal reign. Scripture: Micah 4:2-3 Languages: English Tune Title: UNDE ET MEMORES

who, in faith gone from us,
now in death repose.

there, the warfare ended,
bid them rest in peace.

after weary fight;

Author: Fred Kaan, b. 1929 Hymnal: Common Praise #427 (2000) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Topics: Remembrance Sunday Lyrics: 1 For the healing of the nations,
Lord, we pray with one accord,
for a just and equal sharing
of the things that earth affords.
To a life of love in action
help us rise and pledge our word.

from despair your world release,
that, redeemed from war and hatred,
all may come and go in peace.
Show us how through care and goodness
fear will die and hope increase.

let it from the earth be banned:
pride of status, race or schooling,
dogmas that obscure your plan.
In our common quest for justice
may we hallow life’s brief span.
4 You, Creator-God, have written
your great name on humankind;
for our growing in your likeness,
bring the life of Christ to mind;
