WOV 716
Word of God, Come Down on Earth
Word, of God, come down on earth,
living rain from heav’n descending;
touch our hearts and bring to birth
faith and hope and love unending.
Word almighty, we revere you;
Word made flesh, we long to hear you.
Word eternal, throned on high,
Word that brought to life creation,
Word that came from heav’n to die,
crucified for our salvation,
saving Word, the world restoring,
speak to us, your love outpouring.
Word that caused blind eyes to see,
speak and heal our mortal blindness;
deaf we are: our healer be;
loose our tongues to tell your kindness.
Be our Word in pity spoken,
heal the world, by our sin broken.
Word that speaks God’s tender love,
one with God beyond all telling,
Word that sends us from above,
God the Spirit, with us dwelling,
Word of truth, to all truth lead us;
Word of life, with one bread feed us.

LBW 359
In Christ, there is no east or west
1 In Christ there is no east or west,
In him no south or north,
But one great fellowship of love
Throughout the whole wide earth.
2 In him shall true hearts ev’rywhere
Their high communion find;
His service is the golden cord
Close-binding all mankind.
3 Join hands then, brothers of the faith,
Whate’er your race may be.
Who serves my Father as a son
Is surely kin to me.
4 In Christ now meet both east and west,
In him meet south and north;
All Christly souls are one in Him
Throughout the whole wide earth.
