The glorious universe around
Author: Montgomery Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 65 hymnals Scripture: Galatians 3:28 Lyrics: 1 The glorious universe around,
The heavens with all their train,
Sun, moon, and stars, are firmly bound
In one mysterious chain.
2 The earth, the ocean, and the sky
To form one world agree;
Where all that walk, or swim or fly,
Compose one family.
3 God in creation thus displays
His wisdom and his might,
While all his works with all his ways
Harmoniously unite.
4 In one fraternal bond of love,
One fellowship of mind,
The saints below and saints above
Their bliss and glory find.
5 Here, in their house of pilgrimage,
Thy statutes are their song;
There, through one bright, eternal age,
Thy praises they prolong.
6 Lord, may our union form a part
Of that thrice happy whole;
Derive its pulse from thee, the heart,
Its life from thee, the soul. Topics: The Christian Church Fellowship; The Universal Bond of Love

At Length There Dawns
Author: Ozora S. Davis Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 62 hymnals Scripture: Galatians 3:26-28 First Line: At length there dawns the glorious day Lyrics: 1 At length there dawns the glorious day
By prophets long foretold;
At length the chorus clearer grows
That shepherds heard of old.
The day of dawning Brotherhood
Breaks on our eager eyes,
And human hatreds flee before
The radiant eastern skies.
2 For what are sundering strains of blood,
Or ancient caste and creed?
One claim unites all men in Christ
To serve each human need.
Then here together, brother men,
We pledge the Christ anew
Our loyal love, our stalwart faith,
Our service strong and true.
3 One common faith unites us all,
We seek one common goal,
One tender comfort broods upon
The struggling human soul.
To this clear call of Brotherhood
Our hearts responsive ring;
We join the glorious new crusade
Of our great Lord and King.
Amen. Used With Tune: ALL SAINTS NEW

To all that bear thy name.

Author: Robert L. Edwards, 1915- Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 33 hymnals Scripture: Galatians 3:28 Lyrics: 1 God, whose giving knows no ending,
from your rich and endless store,

costly cross, grave's shattered door:
gifted by you, we turn to you,
offering up ourselves in praise;
thankful song shall rise forever,
gracious donor of our days.
2 Skills and time are ours for pressing
toward the goals of Christ, your Son:
all at peace in health and freedom,
races joined, the church made one.
Now direct our daily labour,
lest we strive for self alone;
born with talents, make us servants
fit to answer at your throne.
3 Treasure too you have entrusted,
gain through powers your Grace conferred.
Ours to use for home and kindred,
and to spread the gospel word.
Open wide our hands in sharing,
as we heed Christ's ageless call,
healing, teaching and reclaiming,
serving you by loving all. Topics: Evangelism; Freedom / Liberation; God Goodness of; Healing / Health; Offering; One Life in Christ Discipleship; Sharing; Stewardship; Thankfulness; Unity; Work Used With Tune: RUSTINGTON

O God of Every Nation
Author: William W. Reid, Jr. 1923- Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 32 hymnals Scripture: Galatians 3:26-29 Lyrics: 1 O God of every nation,
of every race and land,
redeem your 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 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 truth and justice reign,
and Christ shall rule victorious
o'er all the world's domain.
