We thank thee, Lord, Thy paths of service lead
Author: Rev. Calvin W. Laufer Hymnal: The Hymnal #367 (1950) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Discipleship and Service Lyrics: 1 We thank Thee, Lord, Thy paths of service lead
To blazoned heights and down the slopes of need;
They reach Thy throne, encompass land and sea,
And he who journeys in them walks with Thee.
2 We've sought and found Thee in the secret place
And marveled at the radiance of Thy face;
But often in some far-off Galilee
Beheld Thee fairer yet while serving Thee.
3 We've felt Thy touch in sorrow's darkened way
Abound with love and solace for the day;
And, 'neath the burdens there, Thy sovereignty
Has held our hearts enthralled while serving Thee.
4 We've seen Thy glory like a mantle spread
O'er hill and dale in saffron flame and red;
But in the eyes of men, redeemed and free,
A splendor greater yet while serving Thee.
Amen. Tune Title: FIELD
We thank thee, Lord, Thy paths of service lead
Christ for the world we sing
Author: Rev. Samuel Wolcott Hymnal: The Hymnal #378 (1950) Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Missions Lyrics: 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,
Whom Christ doth heal.
2 Christ for the world we sing;
The world to Christ we bring
With fervent prayer;
The wayward and the lost,
By restless passions tossed,
Redeemed at countless cost
From dark despair.
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.
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.
Amen. Tune Title: TRINITY (ITALIAN HYMN)

Swift messengers before Thy face,
The heralds of Thy wondrous grace,
Where Thou Thyself wilt come.
2 Send men whose eyes have seen the King,
Men in whose ears His sweet words ring;
Send such Thy lost ones home to bring;
Send them where Thou wilt come.
3 To bring good news to souls in sin;
The bruised and broken hearts to win;
In every place to bring them in
Where Thou Thyself wilt come.
4 Gird each one with the Spirit's sword,
The sword of Thine own deathless Word;
And make them conquerors, conquering, Lord,
Where Thou Thyself wilt come.

In every place to bring them in
Where Thou Thyself wilt come.

Where Thou Thyself wilt come.

Thy vanguard in the distant land.
In flood, in flame, in dark, in dread,

Their foes so many, they so few,
Be with Thine own, Thy loved, who stand,
Christ’s vanguard, in the storm-swept land.

From ocean unto ocean
Author: Rev. Robert Murray Hymnal: The Hymnal #390 (1950) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Missions Lyrics: 1 From ocean unto ocean
Our land shall own Thee Lord,
And, filled with true devotion,
Obey Thy sovereign word.
Our prairies and our mountains,
Forest and fertile field,
Our rivers, lakes, and fountains,
To Thee shall tribute yield.
2 O Christ, for Thine own glory,
And for our country's weal,
We humbly plead before Thee,
Thyself in us reveal;
And may we know, Lord Jesus,
The touch of Thy dear hand;
And, healed of our diseases,
The Tempter's power withstand.
3 Our Saviour King, defend us,
And guide where we should go;
Forth with Thy message send us,
Thy love and light to show;
Till, fired with true devotion,
Enkindled by Thy word,
From ocean unto ocean
Our land shall own Thee Lord.

Saviour! Thy dying love
Author: Rev. Sylvanus D. Phelps Hymnal: The Hymnal #396 (1950) Meter: 6.4.6.4.6.6.6.4 Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Stewardship Lyrics: 1 Saviour! Thy dying love
Thou gavest me,
Nor should I aught withhold,
Dear Lord, from Thee:
In love my soul would bow,
My heart fulfill its vow,
Some offering bring Thee now,
Something for Thee.
2 At the blest mercy seat,
Pleading for me,
My feeble faith looks up,
Jesus, to Thee;
Help me the cross to bear,
Thy wondrous love declare,
Some song to raise, or prayer,
Something for Thee.
3 Give me a faithful heart,
Guided by Thee,
That each departing day
Henceforth may see
Some work of love begun,
Some deed of kindness done,
Some wanderer sought and won,
Something for Thee.
4 All that I am and have—
Thy gifts so free—
In joy, in grief, through life,
Dear Lord, for Thee;
And when Thy face I see,
My ransomed soul shall be,
Through all eternity,
Offered for Thee.
Amen. Tune Title: SOMETHING FOR JESUS
Saviour! Thy dying love
Lord, speak to me, that I may speak
Author: Frances R. Havergal Hymnal: The Hymnal #399 (1950) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Stewardship Lyrics: 1 Lord, speak to me, that I may speak
In living echoes of Thy tone;
As Thou hast sought, so let me seek
Thy erring children lost and lone.
2 O lead me, Lord, that I may lead
The wandering and the wavering feet;
O feed me, Lord, that I may feed
Thy hungering ones with manna sweet!
3 O teach me, Lord, that I may teach
The precious things Thou dost impart;
And wing my words, that they may reach
The hidden depths of many a heart.
4 O fill me with Thy fullness, Lord,
Until my very heart o'erflow
In kindling thought and glowing word,
Thy love to tell, Thy praise to show.
5 O use me, Lord, use even me,
Just as Thou wilt, and when, and where;
Until Thy blessed face I see,
Thy rest, Thy joy, Thy glory share.
Amen. Tune Title: CANONBURY
Lord, speak to me, that I may speak
The fathers built this city
Author: Rev. William George Tarrant Hymnal: The Hymnal #408 (1950) Meter: 7.6.8.6 D Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth The City Lyrics: 1 The fathers built this city
In ages long ago,
And, busy in its busy streets,
They hurried to and fro;
The children played around them
And sang the songs of yore,
Till, one by one, they fell asleep,
To work and play no more.
2 Yet still the city standeth,
A hive of toiling men,
And mother’s love makes happy home
For children now as then;
O God of ages, help us,
Such citizens to be,
That children’s children here may sing
The songs of liberty!
3 Let all the people praise Thee,
Give all Thy saving health,
Or vain the laborer’s strong right arm
And vain the merchant’s wealth;
Send forth Thy light to stablish
The glory of the Word,
Until this city is become
The city of the Lord!
Amen. Tune Title: PATMOS
The fathers built this city
