Author: Fred Kaan, b. 1929 Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 6 hymnals Hymnal Title: Journeysongs (2nd ed.) Lyrics: 1 God of Eve and God of Mary,
God of love and mother earth,
Thank you for the ones who with us
Shared their life and gave us birth.
2 As you came to earth in Jesus,
So you come to us today;
You are present in the caring
That prepares us for life's way.
3 Thank you, that the Church, our Mother,
Gives us bread and fills our cup,
And the comfort of the Spirit
Warms our hearts and lifts us up.
4 Thank you for belonging shelter,
Bonds of friendship, ties of blood,
And for those who have no children,
Yet are parents under God.
5 God of Eve and God of Mary,
Christ our brother, human son,
Spirit, caring like a mother,
Take our love and make us one. Topics: Church; Mary; Thanksgiving; Unity; Church; Mary; Thanksgiving; Unity; Church; Mary; Thanksgiving; Unity Used With Tune: STUTTGART

1929 - 2009 Person Name: Fred Kaan, b. 1929 Hymnal Title: Journeysongs (3rd ed.) Author of "God of Eve and God of Mary" in Journeysongs (3rd ed.) Fred Kaan Hymn writer. His hymns include both original work and translations. He sought to address issues of peace and justice. He was born in Haarlem in the Netherlands in July 1929. He was baptised in St Bavo Cathedral but his family did not attend church regularly. He lived through the Nazi occupation, saw three of his grandparents die of starvation, and witnessed his parents deep involvement in the resistance movement. They took in a number of refugees. He became a pacifist and began attending church in his teens.
Having become interested in British Congregationalism (later to become the United Reformed Church) through a friendship, he was attended Western College in Bristol. He was ordained in 1955 at the Windsor Road Congregational Church in Barry, Glamorgan.
In 1963 he was called to be minister of the Pilgrim Church in Plymouth. It was in this congregation that he began to write hymns. The first edition of Pilgrim Praise was published in 1968, going into second and third editions in 1972 and 1975. He continued writing many more hymns throughout his life.
