Thine arm, O Lord, in days of old

Author: Edward Hayes Plumptre, 1821 - 91 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #324 (1958) Topics: Church Life and Work The Propagation of the Gospel Lyrics: 1 Thine arm, O Lord, in days of old Was strong to heal and save; It triumphed o'er disease and death, O'er darkness and the grave; To thee they went, the blind, the dumb, The palsied and the lame, The leper with his tainted life, The sick with fevered frame. A-men. 2 And lo, thy touch brought life and health, Gave speech and strength and sight: And youth renewed and frenzy calmed Owned thee the Lord of light; And now, O Lord, be near to bless, Almighty as of yore, In crowded street, by restless couch, As by Gennesaret's shore. 3 Be thou our great deliverer still, Thou Lord of life and death; Restore and quicken, soothe and bless, With thine almighty breath. To hands that work and eyes that see Give wisdom's heavenly lore, That whole and sick, and weak and strong, May praise thee evermore. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. MATTHEW

O Father, hear our prayer; Shine through the clouds that darken everywhere; Thou only light, thou only life and joy, Show us the hope that nothing can destroy. 2 Stumbling and blind, we strive to do thy will, Trusting the word thou surely wilt fulfill, That men are thine, however far they roam, That love shall triumph, and thy kingdom come. A-men. 3 Come, through the faith whereby the Church must live; Come, through the word of truth she has to give; Come, through her teaching, and her healing, too; Come, through the work united hearts can do. 4 Thy kingdom come, and come thy glorious Son; O may our task for him be nobly done! Faithful and true let all thy servants be, Till they shall bring all nations home to thee. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ELLINGHAM

O holy city, seen of John

Author: Walter Russell Bowie, b.1882 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #332 (1958) Topics: Church Life and Work The Kingdom of God Lyrics: 1 O holy city, seen of John, Where Christ, the Lamb, doth reign, Within whose foursquare walls shall come No night, nor need, nor pain, And where the tears are wiped from eyes That shall not weep again! 2 Hark, how from men whose lives are held More cheap than merchandise, From women struggling sore for bread, From little children's cries, There swells the sobbing human plaint That bids thy walls arise! 3 Give us, O God, the strength to build The city that hath stood Too long a dream, whose laws are love, Whose ways are brotherhood, And where the sun that shineth is God’s grace for human good. 4 Already in the mind of God That city riseth fair; Lo, how its splendor challenges The souls that greatly dare, Yea, bids us seize the whole of life And build its glory there.

A-men. 3 Our midnight is thy smile withdrawn, Our noontide is thy gracious dawn, Our rainbow arch thy mercy’s sign; All, save the clouds of sin, are thine. 4 Lord of all life, below, above, Whose light is truth, whose warmth is love, Before thy ever-blazing throne We ask no luster of our own. 5 Grant us thy truth to make us free, And kindling hearts that burn for thee, Till all thy living altars claim One holy light, one heavenly flame. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: LOUVAN
