Jesus Calls Us

Author: Cecil Frances Alexander Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 955 hymnals Topics: Other Observances World Peace First Line: Jesus calls us: o'er the tumult Lyrics: 1 Jesus calls us: o'er the tumult Of our life's wild, restless sea, Day by day his voice is sounding, Saying, "Christian, follow me." 2 As of old, Saint Andrew heard it By the Galilean lake, Turned from home and toil and kindred, Leaving all for his dear sake. 3 Jesus calls us from the worship Of the vain world's golden store, From each idol that would keep us, Saying, "Christian, love me more." 4 In our joys and in our sorrows, Days of toil and hours of ease, Still he calls, in cares and pleasures, "Christian, love me more than these." 4 Jesus calls us: by your mercies, Savior, may we hear your call, Give our hearts to your obedience, Serve and love you best of all. Amen. Used With Tune: GALILEE

O Sing a Song of Bethlehem

Author: Louis FitzGerald Benson Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 66 hymnals Topics: World Peace Lyrics: 1 O sing a song of Bethlehem, of shepherds watching there, and of the news that came to them from angels in the air. The light that shone on Bethlehem fills all the world today. Of Jesus' birth and peace on earth the angels sing alway. 2 O sing a song of Nazareth, of sunny days of joy; O sing of fragrant flowers' breath, and of the sinless boy. For now the flowers of Nazareth in every heart may grow. Now spreads the fame of his dear name on all the winds that blow. 3 O sing a song of Galilee, of lake and woods and hill, of him who walked upon the sea and bade its waves be still. For though, like waves on Galilee, dark seas of trouble roll, when faith has heard the Master's word, falls peace upon the soul. 4 O sing a song of Calvary, its glory and dismay, of him who hung upon the tree, and took our sins away. For he who died on Calvary is risen from the grave, and Christ, our Lord, by heaven adored, is mighty now to save. Scripture: Matthew 8:26 Used With Tune: KINGSFOLD
