Creation's Lord, we give Thee thanks
Creation’s Lord, we give Thee thanks
That this Thy world is incomplete;
That battle calls our marshaled
ranks;
That work awaits our hands and feet.
That Thou hast not yet finished man;
That we are in the making
still,
As friends who share the Maker’s plan
As sons who know the Father’s will.
Beyond the present sin and
shame,
Wrong’s bitter, cruel, scorching blight,
We see the beckoning vision flame,
The blessèd kingdom of the right.
What though the kingdom long delay,
And still with haughty foes must cope?
It gives us that for which to pray,
A field for toil and faith and
hope.
Since what we choose is what we are,
And what we love we yet shall be,
The goal may ever shine
afar—
The will to win it makes us free.
