Our Cities Cry to You, O God

Author: Margaret Clarkson Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 7 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Our cities cry to you, O God, From out their pain and strife; You made us for Yourself alone, But we choose alien life. Our goals are pleasure, gold, and power; Injustice stalks our earth; In vain we seek for rest, for joy, For sense of human worth. 2 Yet still You walk our streets, O Christ! We know Your presence here, Where humble Christians love and serve In godly grace and fear. O Word made flesh, be seen in us! May all we say and do Affirm You God incarnate still And turn sad hearts to You! 3 Your people are Your hands and feet To serve Your world today, Our lives, the book our cities read To help them find your way. O pour Your sovereign Spirit out On heart and will and brain: Inspire Your church with love and power To ease our cities’ pain! 4 O healing Savior, Prince of Peace, Salvation’s source and sum, For You our broken cities cry: O come, Lord Jesus, come! With truth Your royal diadem, With righteousness Your rod, O come, Lord Jesus, bring to earth The city of our God! Scripture: Luke 19:41 Used With Tune: SALVATION

O God of Every Nation

Author: William W. Reid, Jr. Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 32 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O God of every nation, Of every race and land, Redeem the whole creation With Your almighty hand; Where hate and fear divide us And bitter threats are hurled, In love and mercy guide us And heal our strife-torn world. 2 From search for wealth and power And scorn of truth and right, From trust in bombs that shower Destruction through the night, From pride of race and station And blindness to Your way, Deliver every nation, Eternal God, we pray! 3 Lord, strengthen those who labor That we may find release From fear of rattling saber, From dread of war's increase; When hope and courage falter, Your still small voice be heard; With faith that none can alter, Your servants undergird. 4 Keep bright in us the vision Of days when war shall cease, When hatred and division Give way to love and peace, Till dawns the morning glorious When peace on earth shall reign And Christ shall rule victorious O'er all the world's domain.

Great God, Your Love Has Called Us Here

Author: Brian Wren Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 33 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Great God, Your love has called us here As we, by love, for love were made. Your living likeness still we bear, Though marred, dishonored, disobeyed. We come, with all our heart and mind Your call to hear, Your love to find. 2 We come with self-inflicted pains Of broken trust and chosen wrong, Half-free, half-bound by inner chains, By social forces swept along, By powers and systems close confined, Yet seeking hope for humankind. 3 Great God, in Christ You call our name And then receive us as Your own, Not through some merit, right or claim, But by Your gracious love alone. We strain to glimpse your mercy seat And find You kneeling at our feet. 4 Then take the towel, and break the bread, And humble us, and call us friends. Suffer and serve till all are fed, And show how grandly love intends To work till all creation sings, To fill all worlds, to crown all things. 5 Great God, in Christ You set us free Your life to live, Your joy to share. Give us Your Spirit's liberty To turn from guilt and dull despair And offer all that faith can do While love is making all things new. Topics: God Works Used With Tune: DAS NEUGEBORNE KINDELEIN
