Out of our failure to create
Author: Fred Kaan (b . 1929) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: John 3:19-21 Lyrics: 1 Out of our failure to create
a world of love and care;
out of the depths of human life
we cry to God in prayer.
2 Out of the darkness of our time,
of days for ever gone,
our souls are longing for the light,
like watchmen for the dawn.
3 Out of the depths we cry to him
whose will is strong and just;
all human hole-and-corner ways
are by his light exposed.
4 Hope in the Lord whose timeless Jove
gives laughter where we wept;
the father, who at every point
his word has given and kept. Topics: Confession and Penitence; World and Society Justice and Peace Used With Tune: OSBORNE

Sing, My Tongue, the Ageless Story
Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: John 3 Lyrics: 1 Sing, my tongue, the ageless story
As the cross is lifted high!
Tell how Christ our Savior conquered,
When for us he came to die
As a victim in the battle,
Death's dominion to belie.
2 Adam tasted sin and sorrow,
Eating of the fearful tree;
All undoing our enchainment,
By the tree Christ sets us free,
Crushing hell's own tool of bondage
By his great humility.
3 Silence cloaked the earth and heavens
Round the hill of Calvary;
Nailed upon the tree of glory,
Christ endured his agony.
In his royal blood descending
Comes our peace, our liberty.
4 Cross triumphant! Cross transforming!
Ensign of humanity!
Faithful cross, above all others,
One and only noble tree:
Gracious wood and gracious iron,
Gracious burden borne on thee!

all the world is in his hand;

And bowed himself beneath the rod.
He died in holy innocence,
A broken law to recompense.

That in his off’ring I have part
And hold a place within his heart.

Be made to bend, and I, as son,
Learn conduct from the Holy One.
