For Faithfulness in the Cause of Human Freedom. |
799. L. M. Mrs. Chapman. For Faithfulness in the Cause of Human Freedom. 1 O God of freedom! hear us pray For steadfast hearts to toil as one; Till thy pure law hath boundless sway -- Thy will in heaven and earth be done. 2 A piercing voice of grief and wrong Goes upward from the groaning earth; Most true and holy Lord! how long? -- In majesty and might come forth. 3 Yet, Lord! remembering mercy too, Behold th' oppressor in his sin; Make all his actions just and true, Renew his wayward heart within.
