O Christian brethern marvel not!

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: 1 John 3:13-18 Lyrics: 1 O Christian brethern marvel not! What if the world hate you; It is the christians share and lot, Whilst here on earth below. 2 The world will ever love its ways, That of unrighteousness! The carnal mind can ne'er embrace The ways of life and peace. 3 Those who have pass'd from death to life Must needs expect to find, Continual war, and constant strife, With those of carnal mind. 4 The soul remains with sin defil'd! Whilst in a carnal state-- And never will be reconciled To bear the christians fate. 5 Where there is not a living faith, The mind is not renew'd; And still remains in sin and death, And enmity with God.

Children of God, reach out to one another!

Author: John Greenleaf Whittier (1807-1892) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: 1 John 3:18 Lyrics: 1 Children of God, reach out to one another! Where pity dwells, the peace of God is there; to worship rightly is to love each other, each smile a hymn, each kindly deed a prayer. 2 For he whom Jesus loved has truly spoken: the holier worship which God deigns to bless restores the lost, and binds the spirit broken, and feeds the widow and the fatherless. 3 Follow with reverent steps the great example of him whose holy work was doing good; so shall the wide earth seem our Father's temple, each loving life a psalm of gratitude. 4 Then shall all shackles fall; the stormy clangour of wild war music o'er the earth shall cease; love shall tread out the baleful fire of anger, and in its ashes plant the tree of peace.
