From the fears that long have bound us Free our hearts to work and praise. Grant us wisdom, Grant us courage, For the living of these days, For the living of these days. 3 Cure Thy children's warring madness; Bend our pride to Thy control; Shame our wanton selfish gladness, Rich in things and poor in soul. Grant us wisdom, Grant us courage, Lest we miss Thy kingdom's goal, Lest we miss Thy kingdom's goal. 4 Set our feet on lofty places; Gird our lives that they may be Armored with all Christ-like graces In the fight to set men free. Grant us wisdom, Grant us courage, That we fail not man nor Thee, That we fail not man nor Thee! 5 Save us from weak resignation To the evils we deplore; Let the search for Thy salvation Be our glory evermore. Grant us wisdom, Grant us courage, Serving Thee whom we adore, Serving Thee whom we adore. Amen.

Author: James Russell Lowell, 1819-1891 Hymnal: HPP2007 #455 (2007) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Scripture: 1 Kings 18:21 Lyrics: 1 Once to ev'ry man and nation Comes the moment to decide, In the strife of truth and falsehood, For the good or evil side; Some great cause, God's new messiah, Off'ring each the bloom or blight, And the choice goes by forever 'Twixt that darkness and that light. 2 By the light of burning martyrs, Jesus' bleeding feet I track, Toiling up new Calv'ries ever With the cross that turns not back; New occasions teach new duties, Time makes ancient good uncouth; They must upward still and onward, Who would keep abreast of truth. 3 Though the cause of evil prosper, Yet the truth alone is strong, Truth forever on the scaffold, Wrong forever on the throne. Yet that scaffold sways the future, And, behind the dim unknown, Standeth God within the shadow Keeping watch above His own.
