As We, Your People Gather (Hymn for World Peace)
Author: Howard Maple Hymnal: New Hymns of Hope #16 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Justice and Peace First Line: As we, your people, gather Lyrics: 1 As we, your people, gather
with wearied hearts, O Lord,
let prayers be now uplifted
for peace to be restored.
May healing and repentance
in every land be known,
as sword is turned to plowshare
and seeds of trust are sown.
2 The cries of desperation,
the orphan in distress,
instill in us a longing
that words cannot express.
Yet, as the Spirit's presence
within each heart is stirred,
we find new strength and courage
in God's unfailing Word.
3 The prophet voices call us
to seek that promised day
when hatred and oppression
at last are swept away.
No darkness will surround us;
in light we dwell secure.
God's purpose is accomplished
when peace and love endure. Scripture: Isaiah 2:4-5 Languages: English Tune Title: AURELIA
As We, Your People Gather (Hymn for World Peace)
Isaiah the prophet has written of old
Author: Joy F. Patterson (b. 1931-) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #241 (2005) Meter: Irregular Topics: Justice and Peace Lyrics: 1 Isaiah the prophet has written of old
how God's new creation shall come.
Instead of the thorn tree, the fir tree shall grow
the wolf shall lie down with the lamb, the lamb,
the wolf shall lie down with the lamb.
2 The mountains and hills shall break forth into song,
the peoples be led forth in peace:
the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of God
as the waters cover the sea, the sea,
as the waters cover the sea.
3 Yet nations still prey on the meek of the world,
and conflict turns parent from child.
Your people despoil all the sweetness of earth;
the brier and the thorn tree grow wild, grow wild,
the brier and the thorn tree grow wild.
4 God, bring to fruition your will for the earth,
that no one shall hurt or destroy,
when wisdom and justice shall reign in the land
and your people shall go forth in joy, in joy,
and your people shall go forth in joy.

urged and inspired us, cheered us on our way,
sought us and saved us, pardoned and provided:
Lord of the years, we bring our thanks today.
2 Lord, for that word, the word of life which fires us,
speaks to our hearts and sets our souls ablaze,
teaches and trains, rebukes us and inspires us:
Lord of the word, receive your people's praise.
3 Lord, for our land, in this our generation,
spirits oppressed by pleasure, wealth and care:
for young and old, for commonwealth and nation,
Lord of our land, be pleased to hear our prayer.
4 Lord, for our world; when we disown and doubt him,
loveless in strength, and comfortless in pain,
hungry and helpless, lost indeed without him:
Lord of the world, we pray that Christ may reign.
5 Lord for ourselves; in living power remake us —
self on the cross and Christ upon the throne,
past put behind us, for the future take us:
Lord of our lives, to live for Christ alone. Languages: English Tune Title: LORD OF THE YEARS

the passing ages pray;
and faithful souls have yearned to see
on earth that kingdom's day.
2 But the slow watches of the night
not less to God belong;
and for the everlasting right
the silent stars are strong.
3 And lo, already on the hills
the flags of dawn appear;
gird up your loins, ye prophet souls,
proclaim the day is near:
4 The day in whose clear-shining light
all wrong shall stand revealed,
when justice shall be throned with might,
and every heart be healed:
5 When knowledge, hand in hand with peace,
shall walk the earth abroad,
the day of perfect righteousness,
the promised day of God. Scripture: 2 Peter 1:19 Languages: English Tune Title: IRISH
'Thy kingdom come!'– on bended knee
