'Tis by the faith of joys to come
Who would true valour see
Author: John Bunyan (1628-1688) Meter: 6.5.6.5.6.6.6.5 Appears in 160 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 11:13 Lyrics: 1 Who would true valour see,
let him come hither;
one here will constant be,
come wind, come weather;
there's no discouragement
shall make him once relent
his first avowed intent
to be a pilgrim.
2 Whoso beset him round
with dismal stories,
do but themselves confound;
his strength the more is.
No lion can him fright;
he'll with a giant fight,
but he will have a right
to be a pilgrim.
3 Hobgoblin nor foul friend
can daunt his spirit;
he knows he at the end
shall life inherit.
Then fancies fly away;
he'll fear not what men say;
he'll labour night and day
to be a pilgrim. Topics: Life in Christ Our Response to Christ - In Discipleship; Conflict; Courage; Pilgrimage Used With Tune: MONK'S GATE

How Clear Is Our Vocation, Lord
Author: Fred Pratt Green Meter: 8.6.8.8.6.6 Appears in 20 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 11 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 mark Your saints, how they became
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 or ventures new,
May we not cease to look to You--
The cross You hung upon--
All You endeavored done. Used With Tune: REPTON

where bright angel feet have trod,
with its crystal tide forever
flowing by the throne of God?

gather with the saints at the river
that flows by the throne of God.

lay we every burden down;
grace our spirits will deliver,
and provide a robe and crown. (Refrain)
3 Soon we'll reach the shining river,
soon our pilgrimage will cease;
soon our happy hearts will quiver
with the melody of peace. (Refrain)

Rejoice in God's Saints
Author: Fred Pratt Green Meter: 10.10.11.11 Appears in 20 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 11 First Line: Rejoice in God's saints, today and all days Lyrics: 1 Rejoice in God's saints, today and all days;
a world without saints forgets how to praise.
Their faith in acquiring the habit of prayer,
their depth of adoring, Lord, help us to share.
2 Some march with events to turn them God's way;
some need to withdraw, the better to pray;
some carry the gospel through fire and through flood:
our world is their parish: their purpose is God.
3 Rejoice in those saints, unpraised and unknown,
who bear someone's cross, or shoulder their own:
they shame our complaining, our comforts, our cares:
what patience in caring, what courage, is theirs!
4 Rejoice in God's saints, today and all days;
a world without saints forgets how to praise.
in loving, in living, they prove it is true:
the way of self-giving, Lord, leads us to you.
