1. O God of all salvation

1. O God of all salvation

  In every darkest hour,
In every darkest hour,

Look down at your creation

Look down at your creation
With pity and with power.


 With pity and with power.

In all the pain we’re seeing,

In all the pain we’re seeing,

  For stranger as for friend,
For stranger as for friend,

We’ll cling with all our being


We’ll cling with all our being

  To love that cannot end.
To love that cannot end.

Is deeper than our pain,

 Is deeper than our pain,

Look down, and in compassion

Bring us to life again.


 Bring us to life again.

When we are found despairing,
When we are found despairing,
When all seems lost to sin,


 When all seems lost to sin,

We’ll hear your voice declaring
We’ll hear your voice declaring
That love alone will win.

 That love alone will win.

With fear to pave its way,

 With fear to pave its way,

The cry, ‘Lord, how much longer?’

The cry, ‘Lord, how much longer?’
With broken hearts we pray.


 With broken hearts we pray.

In all that is dismaying

In all that is dismaying

  In humankind’s freewill,
In humankind’s freewill,

We’ll join our voices, praying


We’ll join our voices, praying

  That love will triumph still.
That love will triumph still.


4. O God, whose love will never

4. O God, whose love will never

  Be silenced, stalled or stilled,
Be silenced, stalled or stilled,

Set us to work wherever

Set us to work wherever
There’re bridges to rebuild.

 There’re bridges to rebuild.

We’ll take our life’s vocation

We’ll take our life’s vocation
To make, like heav’n above,


 To make, like heav’n above,

In this and every nation

In this and every nation

  A kingdom built on love.
A kingdom built on love.

1. O God of all salvation

 In every darkest hour,

Look down at your creation

 With pity and with power.

In all the pain we’re seeing,

 For stranger as for friend,

We’ll cling with all our being

 To love that cannot end.

2. O God, your loving passion

 Is deeper than our pain,

Look down, and in compassion

 Bring us to life again.

When we are found despairing,

 When all seems lost to sin,

We’ll hear your voice declaring

 That love alone will win.

3. O God, when hate grows stronger,

 With fear to pave its way,

The cry, ‘Lord, how much longer?’

 With broken hearts we pray.

In all that is dismaying

 In humankind’s freewill,

We’ll join our voices, praying

 That love will triumph still.

4. O God, whose love will never

 Be silenced, stalled or stilled,

Set us to work wherever

 There’re bridges to rebuild.

We’ll take our life’s vocation

 To make, like heav’n above,

In this and every nation

 A kingdom built on love.
