Dear Lord and Father of Mankind
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
DEAR LORD AND FATHER OF MANKIND,
FORGIVE OUR FOOLISH WAYS;
RECLOTHE US IN OUR RIGHTFUL MIND;
IN PURER LIVES THY SERVICE FIND,
IN DEEPER REV'RENCE, PRAISE.

IN SIMPLE TRUST LIKE THEIRS WHO
HEARD,
BESIDE THE SYRIAN SEA,
THE GRACIOUS CALLING OF THE LORD,
LET US, LIKE THEM, WITHOUT A WORD
RISE UP AND FOLLOW THEE.

O SABBATH REST IN GALILEE!
O CALM OF HILLS ABOVE,
WHERE JESUS KNELT TO SHARE WITH
THEE
THE SILENCE OF ETERNITY,
INTERPRETED BY LOVE.

WITH THAT DEEP HUSH SUBDUING ALL
OUR WORDS AND WORKS THAT DROWN
THE TENDER WHISPER OF THY CALL,
AS NOISELESS LET THY BLESSING FALL
AS FELL THY MANNA DOWN.

DROP THY STILL DEWS OF QUIETNESS,
TILL ALL OUR STRIVINGS CEASE:
TAKE FROM OUR SOULS THE STRAIN AND
STRESS,
AND LET OUR ORDERED LIVES CONFESS
THE BEAUTY OF THY PEACE.

BREATHE THRO' THE HEATS OF OUR
DESIRE
THY COOLNESS AND THY BALM;
LET SENSE BE DUMB, LET FLESH RETIRE;
SPEAK THRO' THE EARTQUAKE, WIND
AND FIRE,
O STILL SMALL VOICE OF CALM.
