Tomorrow Christ is coming
Author: Fred Kaan, 1929- Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 7 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Tomorrow Christ is coming,
as yesterday he came;
a child is born this moment;
we do not know its name.
The world is full of darkness:
again there is no room;
the symbols of existence
are stable, cross and tomb.
2 Tomorrow will be Christmas,
the feast of love divine,
but, for the nameless millions,
the star will never shine.
Still is the census taken,
with people on the move;
new infants born in stables
are crying out for love.
3 There will be no tomorrows
for many a baby born;
Good Friday falls on Christmas
when life is sown as corn,
but Jesus Christ is risen
and comes again in bread
to still our deepest hunger
and raise us from the dead.
4 Our Lord becomes incarnate
in every human birth.
Created in God's image,
we must make peace on earth.
God will fulfil love's purpose,
and this shall be the sign:
we shall find Christ among us
as woman, child or man. Topics: Church Year Advent; Lament; Peace; Social Concerns / Social Justice; Suffering Scripture: Genesis 1:26-28 Used With Tune: LITTLE BADDOW

This is a story full of love
Author: Brian A. Wren, 1936- Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 This is a story full of love,
a song to set us free,
of God, the Wisdom and the Word,
the keystone and the key,
the keystone and the key.
2 For Wisdom guides the flow of life
and governs, hour by hour,
the forces of the universe,
the fragrance of a flower,
the fragrance of a flower.
3 And faith, awakened, hears the word
that Abraham must move,
and slaves of Pharaoh take the road
to freedom, law and love,
to freedom, law and love.
4 The Wisdom and the Word are one
when flesh and bone and breath
reveal the human face of God,
the child of Nazareth,
the child of Nazareth.
5 Arising over earthly powers,
our Saviour has begun
to catch them in a web of love
and weave them into one,
and weave them into one.
6 Praise God, the Wisdom and the Word,
till all the world can see
that Jesus is the first and last,
the keystone and the key,
the keystone and the key.
