Eternal God, whose power
upholds Both flower and flaming star,
To whom there is no here
nor there, No time, no near nor far,
No alien race, no foreign
shore, No child unsought, unknown:
O send us forth, Your
prophets true, To make all lands Your own!
2
O God of truth, whom
science seeks And reverent souls adore,
Illumine every earnest mind
Of every clime and shore:
Dispel the gloom of error's
night, Of ignorance and fear,
Until true wisdom from
above Shall make life's pathway clear!
3
O God of beauty, oft
revealed In dreams of human art,
In speech that flows to
melody, In holiness of heart:
Teach us to ban al
ugliness, And all disharmony,
Till all shall know the
loveliness Of lives made fair and free!
4
O God of righteousness and
grace, Seen in the Christ, Your Son,
Whose life and death reveal
Your face, By whom Your will was done;
Help us to spread Your
gracious reign Till greed and hate shall cease,
And kindness dwell in human
hearts, And all the earth find peace!
