How great was our dear Lord's distress
Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #LIII (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Publication Date: 1816 Scripture: Matthew 4:1-11 Lyrics: 1 How great was our dear Lord's distress;
His trials how severe:
When in a howling wilderness,
He strove with Satan there.
2 That foe assault's him with disdain;
Thou art here left alone,
To suffer hunger, thirst and pain--
Would God forsake his son!
3 Now to supply thy present need;
Art thou the son of God!
Command these stones that they be bread,
Supply thyself with food.
4 May we reply as Jesus did,
When we are tempted too!
This is the means, by which we rid,
Ourselves of such a foe.
5 Man does not live by bread alone,
But by that sacred word:
By which all things are made and done,
As order'd by the Lord.
6 In various ways the tempter tried,
To cause the Saviour's fall;
But was defeated and defied,
And miss'd his aim in all.
7 Christ conquer'd and he gain'd the day,
In all he overcame--
To him we look, to him we pray,
And we shall do the same.
8 To his dear word and promises,
We ever have recourse;
In him always have we success,
To banish Satan's force.

Submerged in darkest heathen night?
Vainly groping for the way that leads to hope and peace,
They plead and wait for Gospel light.
Chorus:
A thousand million souls are dying,
A thousand million souls for whom the Saviour died.
Can you still deny their plea?
Can you longer idle be,
While a thousand million souls are dying?
2 Have you heard the sobbing of a thousand million souls,
By superstitious chains enslaved?
Can you longer be in diff'rent to their sad estate?
Thro' Jesus they can all be saved. [Chorus]
3 Can you hear the sobbing of a thousand million souls,
Who seek relief of heart in vain?
Let them have the blessed Gospel that can freedom give,
And rend the chains of sin in twain. [Chorus] Topics: Book One: Hymns, Songs, Chorales; Commission Call for Laborers Languages: English Tune Title: [Have you heard the sobbing of a thousand million souls]

How Clear Is Our Vocation, Lord
Author: Fred Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Hymnal: Worship and Rejoice #573 (2003) Meter: 8.6.8.8.6.6 Publication Date: 2003 Scripture: Matthew 4:19 Lyrics: 1 How clear is our vocation, Lord,
when once we heed your call:
to live according to your word,
and daily learn, refreshed, restored,
that you are Lord of all,
and will not let us fall.
2 But if, forgetful, we should find
your yoke is hard to bear;
if worldly pressures fray the mind,
and love itself cannot unwind
its tangled skein of care:
our inward life repair.
3 We marvel how your saints become
in hindrances more sure;
whose joyful virtues put to shame
the casual way we wear your name,
and by our faults obscure
your power to cleanse and cure.
4 In what you give us, Lord, to do,
together or alone,
in old routines and ventures new
may we not cease to look to you,
the cross you hung upon--
all you endeavored done.
