CHRIST THE CONSOLER, by HENRY WILLIAMS BAKER First Line: O god of love, o king of peace Last Line: Give peace, o god, give peace again! Subject(s): Jesus Christ | ||||||||
O God of love, O King of peace, Make wars throughout the world to cease: The wrath of sinful man restrain, Give peace, O God, give peace again! Remember, Lord, Thy works of old, The wonders that our fathers told; Remember not our sin's dark stain, Give peace, O God, give peace again! Whom shall we trust but Thee, O Lord? Where rest but on Thy faithful word? None ever called on Thee in vain, Give peace, O God, give peace again! Where saints and angels dwell above, All hearts are knit in holy love; O bind us in that heavenly chain! Give peace, O God, give peace again! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE GREEN CHRIST by ANDREW HUDGINS MEDITATION ON SAVIORS by ROBINSON JEFFERS COMPANIONSHIP by MALTBIE DAVENPORT BABCOCK TO A WREN ON CALVARY by LARRY LEVIS THE TRANSFIGURATION by EDWIN MUIR SOUNDS OF THE RESURRECTED DEAD MAN'S FOOTSTEPS (#3): 1.
