Hymns Supplied Through the Gracious Generosity
of the Cyber Hymnal Website
Words: John Howard Bertram Masterman, 1922.
Music: "Deus Tuorum Militum," Grenoble church melody
Almighty Father, Who dost give
The gift of life to all who live,
Look down on all earth's sin and strife,
And lift us to a nobler life.
Lift up our hearts, O King of kings,
To brighter hopes and kindlier things;
To visions of a larger good,
And holier dreams of brotherhood.
Thy world is weary of its pain;
Of selfish greed and fruitless gain;
Of tarnished honor, falsely strong,
And all its ancient deeds of wrong.
Hear Thou the prayer Thy servants pray,
Uprising from all lands today,
And o'er the vanquished powers of sin,
O bring Thy great salvation in.
