Dear Lord and Father of Mankind lyrics

Dear Lord and Father of mankind,

Forgive our foolish ways:

Reclothe us in our rightful mind;

In purer lives your service find,

In deeper reverence praise,

In deeper reverence praise.

In simple trust, like theirs who heard

Beside the Syrian sea,

The gracious calling of the Lord,

Let us, like them, obey his word:

'Rise up and follow Me,

rise up and follow Me!.'

Oh Sabbath rest by Galilee!

Oh calm of hills above

When Jesus shared, on bended knee,

The silence of eternity

Interpreted by love,

Interpreted by love!

With that deep hush subduing all

Our words and works that drown

The tender whisper of your call,

As noiseless let your blessing fall

As fell your manna down,

As fell your manna down.

Drop your 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 your peace,

The beauty of your peace.

Breathe through the heats of our desire

Your coolness and your balm;

Let sense be dumb, let flesh retire...

Speak through the earthquake, wind and fire,

O still small voice of calm,

O still small voice of calm!
