O Day Of Peace

Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., b. 1944 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 22 hymnals Matching Instances: 19 First Line: O day of peace that dimly shines Lyrics: 1 O day of peace that dimly shines Through all our hopes and prayers and dreams, Guide us to justice, truth, and love, Delivered from our selfish schemes. May swords of hate fall from our hands, Our hearts from envy find release, Till by God’s grace our warring world Shall see Christ’s promised reign of peace. 2 Then shall the wolf dwell with the lamb, Nor shall the fierce devour the small; As beasts and cattle calmly graze, A little child shall lead them all. Then enemies shall learn to love, All creatures find their true accord; The hope of peace shall be fulfilled, For all the earth shall know the Lord. Topics: Peace Used With Tune: JERUSALEM

You, LORD, are greatly to be praised; your greatness is beyond all thought. From age to age your people tell the mighty wonders you have wrought. 2 On your most glorious majesty and on your deeds my mind will dwell. Your deeds will fill the world with awe, and all your greatness I will tell. Your matchless goodness and your grace your people will commemorate; and all your truth and righteousness our joyful song will celebrate. 3 The LORD our God is rich in grace, tender to us, compassionate. His anger is most slow to rise; his love and kindness are most great. The LORD is good in all his ways; his creatures know his constant care. To all his works his love extends; all creatures in his mercies share. 4 All you have made will praise you, LORD; your mighty acts your saints will show, till all the peoples on the earth the splendor of your kingdom know. Eternal is your kingdom, LORD, forever strong and ever sure; while generations rise and die, your glorious reign will still endure. 5 The LORD is faithful to his word; he will extend his gracious hand. The LORD upholds the faltering feet and makes the weak securely stand. The eyes of all look up to you for food and drink, which you supply; your open hand is bountiful, and every need you satisfy. 6 The LORD is just in all his ways; in all his works the LORD is kind, and all who call on him in truth in him a present helper find. He will fulfill the heart's desire of those who fear him and obey. The LORD will surely hear their cry, will save them when to him they pray. 7 The LORD in grace preserves his saints, redeeming those who love his name. The wicked he will overthrow and put his enemies to shame. My mouth will sing the glorious praise of God, whom earth and heaven adore. Let every creature praise his name forever and forevermore!

Author: Horatius Bonar Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Appears in 110 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 O love of God, how strong and true! eternal and yet ever new, uncomprehended and unbought, beyond all knowledge and all thought! O love of God, how deep and great, far deeper than man's deepest hate; self-fed, self-kindled like the light, changeless, eternal, infinite. 2 O heav'nly love, how precious still, in days of weariness and ill, in nights of pain and helplessness, to heal, to comfort, and to bless! O wide-embracing, wondrous love! We read you in the sky above, we read you in the earth below, in seas that swell, and streams that flow. 3 We read you best in him who came to bear for us the cross of shame; sent by the Father from on high, our life to live, our death to die. We read your pow'r to bless and save, e'en in the darkness of the grave; still more in resurrection light we read the fulness of your might. 4 O love of God, our shield and stay through all the perils of our way! Eternal love, in you we rest, forever safe, forever blest. We will exalt you, God and King, and we will ever praise your name; we will extol you ev'ry day, and evermore your praise proclaim.

Ĉu antaŭ longe paŝis Li

Author: William Blake Appears in 1 hymnal Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1. Ĉu antaŭ longe paŝis Li en mezo de la amikar' — La Diŝafido — tie ĉi sur Anglaj montoj kaj kampar'? Ĉu nigrajn montojn ĉirkaŭ ni briligis Divizaĝa lum'? Ĉu Jerusalem estis vi, infera fabrikeja fum'? 2. Alportu sagojn de dezir', kaj arkon el flamanta or', Kun fajra ĉaro de aspir' kaj mia lanc' — Ho nuboj, for! Laboros mi sen tim' aŭ trem' kun glavo preta por komand', Ĝis staros Nov-Jerusalem' en Angla bela verda land'.
