Author: Hardwicke D. Rawnsley Hymnal: The Hymnbook #309 (1955) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Matthew 11:5 Lyrics: 1 Father, whose will is life and good
For all of mortal breath,
Bind strong the bond of brotherhood
Of those who fight with death.
2 Empower the hands and hearts and wills
Of friends both near and far,
Who battle with the body's ills
And wage Thy holy war.
3 Where'er they heal the maimed and blind,
Let love of Christ attend:
Proclaim the good Physician's mind,
And prove the Saviour friend.
4 O Father, look from heaven and bless,
Where'er Thy servants be,
Their works of pure unselfishness,
Made consecrate to Thee.
