Micah 6:6-9: Thus speaks the heathen: How shall man

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Micah 6:6-9 First Line: Thus speaks the heathen: How shall man Lyrics: Thus speaks the heathen: How shall man the Pow’r Supreme adore? With what accepted off’rings come his mercy to implore? Shall clouds of incense to the skies with grateful odour speed? Or victims from a thousand hills upon the altar bleed? Does justice nobler blood demand to save the sinner’s life? Shall, trembling, in his offspring’s side the father plunge the knife? No: God rejects the bloody rites which blindfold zeal began; His oracles of truth proclaim the message brought to man. He what is good hath clearly shown, O favoured race! to thee; And what doth God require of those who bend to him the knee? 136 Thy deeds, let sacred justice rule; thy heart, let mercy fill; And, walking humbly with thy God, to him resign thy will.

O God, Our Creator, You Work Every Day

Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Micah 6:8 Lyrics: O God, our Creator, you work every day: A potter, you form us, your people, like clay. A shepherd, you guide us and seek out the lost. A parent, you love us, not counting the cost. Christ Jesus, how rough were your hard-working hands! You labored among us; our God understands! Bless workers who struggle, their families to feed; Bless those who face hardship, oppression, or greed. Lord, some live among us who need constant care, Whose work is to make us more humbly aware. They teach us the best of your lessons, by far: It’s not what we do, Lord, you love who we are! We’re baptized! Your Spirit gives new work to do, That we, through our serving, may glorify you. Each person’s vocation, each calling, has worth As you send us out to bring Christ’s love on earth. Topics: Call/Vocation; Grace of God; Nation/National Holidays Used With Tune: ST. DENIO

Lord, What is All Our Fighting For?

Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Micah 6:8 Lyrics: Lord, what is all our fighting for? We train our young to go to war. A young girl sees the terror spread As soldiers shoot her parents dead. Lord, what is our acceptance for? We tolerate what you abhor. Each day more little ones are lost; May we seek truth and count war’s cost. What can we for repentance bring? You do not want an offering. “Do what is just,” you simply say; “Love what is kind and seek my way.” Lord, what is all our silence for? Now make us bold to say, “No more!” The world need not be what it’s been; Your peace will reign! Your love will win! Topics: Justice; Lament; Peacemaking Used With Tune: O WALY WALY
