God the Omnipotent! King, who ordainest
Author: Henry F. Chorley, 1808 - 72; John Ellerton, 1826 - 93 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #354 (1958) Topics: Church Life and Work City, Nation, World Lyrics: 1 God the Omnipotent! King, who ordainest
Great winds thy clarions, lightnings thy sword;
Show forth thy pity on high where thou reignest:
Give to us peace in our time, O Lord.
2 God, the All-merciful! earth hath forsaken
Meekness and mercy, and slighted thy word;
Bid not thy wrath in its terrors awaken:
Give to us peace in our time, O Lord. A-men.
3 God, the All-righteous One! man hath defied thee,
Yet to eternity standeth thy word;
Falsehood and wrong shall not tarry beside thee;
Give to us peace in our time, O Lord.
4 God, the All-wise! by the fire of thy chastening
Earth shall to freedom and truth be restored;
Through the thick darkness thy kingdom is hastening:
Thou wilt give peace in thy time, O Lord.
5 So shall thy children in thankful devotion
Praise him who saved them from peril and sword,
Singing in chorus from ocean to ocean:
'Peace to the nations, and praise to the Lord.'
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: RUSSIAN HYMN
God the Omnipotent! King, who ordainest
Where restless crowds are thronging
Author: Thomas Curtis Clark, 1877-1953 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #355 (1958) Topics: Church Life and Work City, Nation, World Lyrics: 1 Where restless crowds are thronging
Along the city ways,
Where pride and greed and turmoil
Consume the fevered days,
Where vain ambitions banish
All thoughts of praise and prayer,
The people’s spirits waver:
But thou, O Christ, art there. A-men.
2 In scenes of want and sorrow
And haunts of flagrant wrong,
In homes where kindness falters,
And strife and fear are strong,
In busy street of barter,
In lonely thoroughfare,
The people’s spirits languish:
But thou, O Christ, art there.
3 O Christ, behold thy people--
They press on every hand!
Bring light to all the cities
Of our beloved land.
May all our bitter striving
Give way to visions fair
Of righteousness and justice:
For thou, O Christ, art there.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: MEIRIONYDD
Where restless crowds are thronging
Mighty God, to thy dear Name be given
Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #357 (1958) Topics: Church Life and Work City, Nation, World Lyrics: 1 Mighty God, to thy dear Name be given
Highest praise o'er all the earth and heaven.
All souls distressed,
All men oppressed,
Their voices raising,
Unite in praising Thy glory.
2 God is God, though all the earth lay wasted;
God is God, though all men death had tasted.
While nations stumble,
In darkness fumble,
By stars surrounded,
Countless aboundeth God's harvest.
3 Highest hills and deepest vales shall vanish,
Earth and heaven both alike be banished.
As in the dawning
Of every morning
The sun appeareth,
So glorious neareth
God's kingdom. Languages: English Tune Title: DEUS FORTIS
Mighty God, to thy dear Name be given

By thy great might. A-men.

To God above the skies;
On him we wait.
Thou who art ever nigh,
Guarding with watchful eye,
To thee aloud we cry,
God save the state!

Dominion holds on sea and land,
In peace and war thy will we see
Shaping the larger liberty;
Nations may rise and nations fall,
Thy changeless purpose rules them all.

In weariness and agony,
Great Healer, to their beds of pain
Come, touch, and make them whole again.
O hear a people's prayers, and bless
Thy servants in their hour of stress. A-men.

We pray thy tender welcome home;
The toil, the bitterness, all past,
We trust them to thy love at last.
O hear a people's prayers for all
Who, nobly striving, nobly fall.

And spend themselves, their skill, their zeal;
Renew their hearts with Christ-like faith,
And guard them from disease and death;
And in thine own good time, Lord, send
Thy peace on earth till time shall end.

Of thee I sing:
Land where my fathers died,
Land of the pilgrims' pride,
From every mountain side
Let freedom ring.

Land of the noble free,
Thy name I love;
I love thy rocks and rills,
Thy woods and templed hills;
My heart with rapture thrills
Like that above. A-men.

And ring from all the trees
Sweet freedom's song;
Let mortal tongues awake;
Let all that breathe partake;
Let rocks their silence break,
The sound prolong.

Long may our land be bright
With freedom's holy light;
Protect us by thy might,

On her be pleased to pour;
Long may she reign:
May she defend our laws,
And ever give us cause
To sing with heart and voice,
God save the Queen.

And thou hast sworn to hear;

We trusted, Lord, with thee;
And now, when spring has on us smiled,
We wait on thy decree. A-men.

The summer sun and air,
The green ear and the golden grain,
All thine, are ours by prayer;
4 Thine too by right, and ours by grace,
The wondrous growth unseen,
The hopes that soothe, the fears that brace,
The love that shines serene.
5 So grant the precious things brought forth
By sun and moon below,
That thee in thy new heaven and earth
We never may forego.
