Light Dawns on a Weary World
God of freedom, God of justice
Author: Shirley Erena Murray, b. 1931 Hymnal: Common Praise #447 (2000) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Topics: Peace and Justice Lyrics: 1 God of freedom, God of justice,
God whose love is strong as death,
God who saw the dark of prison,
God who knew the price of faith:
touch our world of sad oppression
with your Spirit's healing breath.
2 Rid the earth of torture's terror,
God whose hands were nailed to wood;
hear the cries of pain and protest,
God who shed the tears and blood;
move in us the power of pity,
restless for the common good.
3 Make in us a captive conscience
quick to hear, to act, to plead;
make us truly sisters, brothers
of whatever race or creed:
teach us to be fully human,
open to each other's need. Scripture: Hebrews 5:8 Languages: English Tune Title: RHUDDLAN

When Will People Cease Their Fighting?
Author: Constance Cherry Hymnal: Voices United #687 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: The Church in the World Commitment: Peace and Justice Lyrics: 1 When will people cease their fighting?
When will armies wage no war,
nations conquer not their neighbour,
weapons idle, used no more?
When will guns and bombs be silent?
When will captives be set free?
All creation groans in longing
for the world's true liberty.
2 Floods and earthquakes, drought and famine
plague the world with awesome ill,
but far greater is war's horror
caused by human, stubborn will.
Blest are those who, working, praying,
purpose in their hearts to be
instruments of peace, committed
to the nations' harmony.
3 As we strive for peace with vigour,
hoping to be shown the way,
we are strengthened in the knowledge
of a future, perfect day;
for we know that deeper, richer
peace is ours when Christ shall reign:
then will all our swords be plowshares
and God's children free from pain. Languages: English Tune Title: AUSTRIAN HYMN
When Will People Cease Their Fighting?
Gentle God, When We Are Driven
Author: Shirley Erena Murray Hymnal: Voices Together #150 (2020) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Topics: Peace and Justice Lyrics: 1 Gentle God, when we are driven
past the limits of our love,
when our hurt would have a weapon
and the hawk destroy the dove,
at the cost of seeming weak,
help us turn the other cheek.
2 Gentle Spirit, when our reason
clouds in anger, twists in fear,
when we strike instead of soothing,
when we bruise and sting and smear,
cool our burning, take our pain,
bring us to ourselves again.
3 In the mirror of earth’s madness
let us see our ravaged face,
in the turmoil of all people
let compassion find a place,
touch our hearts to make amends,
see our enemies as friends.
4 Let our strength be in forgiving
as forgiven we must be,
one to one in costly loving,
finding trust and growing free,
gentle God, be our release,
gentle Spirit, teach us peace. Scripture: Isaiah 50:4-9 Tune Title: TAWA
Gentle God, When We Are Driven
