Author: Zona Gale, 1874-1938 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #110 (1993) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Come, children of tomorrow, come! Lyrics: 1 Come, children of tomorrow, come!
New glory dawns upon the world;
the warring banners must be furled,
the earth become our common home.
2 From plain and field and town there sound
the stirring rumors of the day;
old wrongs and burdens must make way
for all to tread the common ground.
3 Divided we have long withstood
the love that is our common speech.
The comrade cry of each to each
is calling us to humanhood. Topics: Words and Deeds of Prophetic Women and Men Commitment and Action; Children; Humankind; Peace and War Languages: English Tune Title: VOM HIMMEL HOCH
