When in Our Music God Is Glorified

Author: Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: CH1995 #7 (1995) Meter: 10.10.10 with alleluia Lyrics: When, in our music, God is glorified, and adoration leaves no room for pride, it is as though the whole creation cried, "Alleluia!" How often, making music, we have found a new dimension in the world of sound, as worship moved us to a more profound "Alleluia!" So has the church, in liturgy and song, in faith and love, through centuries of wrong, borne witness to the truth in every tongue: "Alleluia!" And did not Jesus sing a Psalm that night when utmost evil strove against the Light? Then let us sing, for whom he won the fight: "Alleluia!" Let every instrument be tuned for praise! Let all rejoice who have a voice to raise! And may God give us faith to sing always: "Alleluia!"

O God, We Bear the Imprint of Your Face

Author: Shirley Erena Murray Hymnal: CH1995 #681 (1995) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 O God, we bear the imprint of your face: the colors of our skin are your design, and what we have of beauty in our race as man or woman, you alone define, who stretched a living fabric on our frame and gave to each a language and a name. 2 Where we are torn and pulled apart by hate because our race, our skin is not the same, while we are judged unequal by the state and victims made because we own our name, humanity reduced to little worth, dishonored is Your living face on earth. 3 O God, we share the image of your Son whose flesh and blood are ours, whatever skin, in his humanity we find our own, and in his family our proper kin: Christ is the brother we still crucify, his love the language we must learn, or die.
