John 17:9 I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine. [kjv]
εγω περι αυτων ερωτω ου περι του κοσμου ερωτω αλλα περι ων δεδωκας μοι οτι σοι εισιν [gnt]

The hymn "Christ for the world we sing" was written in 1869 by Samuel Wolcott (1813-1886). Born in Connecticut, educated it Yale and Andover Theological Seminary. He was a missionary to Syria from 1840 to 1842. He started writing hymns late in life but wrote over 200 hymns. Music: Christ for the world we sing

5. Verse 1
Christ for the world we sing;
the world to Christ we bring
with loving zeal:
the poor and them that mourn,
the faint and overborne,
sin-sick and sorrow-worn,
for Christ doth heal.
6. Verse 2
Christ for the world we sing;
the world to Christ we bring
with fervent pray'r:
the wayward and the lost,
by restless passions tossed,
redeemed at countless cost
from dark despair.
7. Verse 3
Christ for the world we sing;
the world to Christ we bring
with one accord:
with us the work to share,
with us reproach to dare,
with us the cross to bear,
for Christ our Lord.
8. Verse 4
Christ for the world we sing;
the world to Christ we bring
with joyful song:
the newborn souls whose days,
reclaimed from error's ways,
inspired with hope and praise,
to Christ belong.
