Now Is the Time Approaching
Author: Jane Laurie Borthwick Hymnal: NCH1995 #609 (1995) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Tune Title: WEBB Lyrics: 1 Now is the time approaching,
by prophets long foretold,
when all shall dwell together,
secure and manifold.
Let war be learned no longer,
let strife and tumult cease,
all earth a blessed garden
that God shall tend in peace.
2 Let all that now devides us
remove and bass away,
like mists of early morning
before the blaze of day.
Let all that now unites us
more sweet and lasting prove,
a closer bond of union,
in blessed lands of love.
3 O long-expected dawning,
come with your cheering ray!
Yet shall the promise beckon
and lead us not astray.
O sweet anticipation!
It cheers the watchers on
to pray, and hope, and labor
till Christ's new realm is come. Topics: Christian unity; New Creation; Peace World; Realm of God; Year A Advent 2; Year B Advent 3; Year C Advent 1 Scripture: Isaiah 61:11 Languages: English

where pity dwells, the peace of God is there;
To worship rightly is to love each other,
each smile a hymn, each kindly deed a prayer.
2 For God whom Jesus loved has truly spoken:
the holier worship which Christ deigns to bless
Restores the lost, and binds the spirit broken,
and feeds the widow and the parentless.
3 Follow with reverent steps the great example
of Christ whose holy work was doing good;
So shall the wide earth seem a holy temple,
each loving life a psalm of gratitude.
4 Then shall all shackles fall; the stormy clangor
of wild war music o'er the earth shall cease;
Love shall tread out the baleful fire of anger,
and in its ashes plant the tree of peace. Topics: Church Nature and Unity; Comfort and Assurance; Consecration; Discipleship; Service; Year B Proper 14; Year B Proper 20 Scripture: Ephesians 4:31-32, 5:1-2 Languages: English
