Hope of the World

Author: Georgia Harkness, 1891-1974 Hymnal: Lutheran Service Book #690 (2006) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Hymnal Title: Lutheran Service Book First Line: Hope of the world, Thou Christ of great compassion Lyrics: 1 Hope of the world, Thou Christ of great compassion; Speak to our fearful hearts by conflict rent. Save us, Thy people, from consuming passion, Who by our own false hopes and aims are spent. 2 Hope of the world, God's gift from highest heaven, Bringing to hungry souls the bread of life. Still let thy Spirit unto us be given To heal earth's wounds and end our bitter strife. 3 Hope of the world, afoot on dusty highways, Showing to wand'ring souls the path of light, Walk Thou beside us lest the tempting byways Lure us away from Thee to endless night. 4 Hope of the world, who by Thy cross didst save us From death and dark despair, from sin and guilt, We render back the love Thy mercy gave us; Take Thou our lives and use them as Thou wilt. 5 Hope of the world, O Christ, o'er death victorious, Who by this sign did conquer grief and pain, We would be faithful to Thy Gospel glorious. Thou art our Lord! Thou dost forever reign! Topics: Society Scripture: 1 Timothy 1:1 Languages: English Tune Title: EIRENE

O Son of God, our Captain of salvation

Author: J. Ellerton Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #161 (1898) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Hymnal Title: The Church Hymnal Lyrics: 1 O Son of God, our Captain of salvation, Thyself by suffering schooled to human grief, We bless Thee for Thy sons of consolation, Who follow in the steps of Thee their Chief; 2 Those whom Thy Spirit's dread vocation severs, To lead the vanguard of Thy conquering host; Whose toilsome years are spent in brave endeavors To bear Thy saving Name from coast to coast; 3 Those whose bright faith makes feeble hearts grow stronger, And sends fresh warriors to the great campaign, Bids the lone convert feel estranged no longer, And wins the sundered to be one again; 4 And all true helpers, patient, kind, and skilful, Who shed Thy light across our darkened earth, Counsel the doubting, and restrain the wilful, Soothe the sick bed, and share the children's mirth. 5 Such was Thy Levite, strong in self-oblation To cast his all at Thine Apostles' feet; He whose new name, through every Christian nation From age to age our thankful strains repeat. 6 Thus, Lord, Thy Barnabas in memory keeping, Still be Thy Church's watchword, "Comfort ye;" Till in our Father's house shall end our weeping, And all our wants be satisfied in Thee. Amen. Topics: Other Feasts and Fasts St. Barnabas; Associations of Guilds; Lay Helpers; Sympathy Languages: English Tune Title: EIRENE

Come unto Me, when shadows darkly gather

Author: Catherine H. Esling Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #517 (1913) Hymnal Title: The Lutheran Hymnary Lyrics: 1 Come unto Me, when shadows darkly gather, When the sad heart is weary and distressed; Seeking for comfort from your heavenly Father, Come unto Me, and I will give you rest. 2 Ye who have mourned when the spring flowers were taken, When the ripe fruit fell richly to the ground, When the loved slept, in brighter homes to waken, Where their pale brows with spirit-wreaths are crowned, 3 Large are the mansions in thy Father’s dwelling, Glad are the homes that sorrows never dim; Sweet are the harps in holy music swelling, Soft are the tones which raise the heavenly hymn. 4 There like an Eden blossoming in gladness, Bloom the fair flowers the earth too rudely pressed; Come unto Me, all ye who droop in sadness, Come unto Me, and I will give you rest.
