God of grace and God of glory, On Thy people pour Thy pow’r; Crown Thy ancient Church’s story, Bring its bud to glorious flow’r. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage For the facing of this hour, For the facing of this hour. Lo, the hosts of evil round us Scorn thy Christ, assail his ways. From the fears that long have bound us Free our hearts to faith and praise. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage For the living of these days, For the living of these days. Cure Thy children’s warring madness; Bend our pride to Thy control; Shame our wanton, selfish gladness, Rich in things and poor in soul. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage Lest we miss Thy kingdom’s goal, Lest we miss Thy kingdom’s goal. Save us from weak resignation To the evils we deplore; Let the gift of Thy salvation Be our glory evermore. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage Serving Thee whom we adore, Serving Thee whom we adore.

One of my favorite hymns

[@jdb10715]

Both music and words are splendid. No doubt these words were written during WWII. In Fosdick's "A Great Time To Be Alive," written in that time, the first words were "This certainly is a ghastly time to be alive." But then he goes on to tell why it's a great tiime to be alive.

I love this hymn ... and I love Fosdick.

I have many of his books, inherited from my father. "A Great Time To Be Alive" is one.

So beautiful. And powerful.

This hymn goes well with Luke 13:1-9.
