From Greenland's Icy Mountains
Author: Reginald Heber Hymnal: Timeless Truths #701 Meter: 13.13.13.13 First Line: From Greenland's icy mountains, from India's coral strand Lyrics: 1 From Greenland’s icy mountains, from India’s coral strand;
Where Afric’s sunny fountains roll down their golden sand:
From many an ancient river, from many a palmy plain,
They call us to deliver their land from error’s chain.
2 What though the spicy breezes blow soft o’er Ceylon’s isle;
Though every prospect pleases, and only man is vile?
In vain with lavish kindness the gifts of God are strown;
The heathen in his blindness bows down to wood and stone.
3 Shall we, whose souls are lighted with wisdom from on high,
Shall we to those benighted the lamp of life deny?
Salvation! O salvation! The joyful sound proclaim,
Till earth’s remotest nation has learned Messiah’s Name.
4 Waft, waft, ye winds, His story, and you, ye waters, roll,
Till, like a sea of glory, it spreads from pole to pole:
Till for His ransomed people the Lamb for sinners slain,
Redeemer, King, Creator, in bliss returns again. Topics: Missionary Scripture: Matthew 28:19-20 Tune Title: MISSIONARY HYMN

Author: Frances R. Havergal Hymnal: Timeless Truths #729 Meter: 13.13.13.13 First Line: Another year is dawning, dear Father, let it be Lyrics: 1 Another year is dawning, dear Father, let it be
In working or in waiting, another year with Thee;
Another year of progress, another year of praise,
Another year of proving Thy presence all the days.
2 Another year of mercies, of faithfulness and grace,
Another year of gladness in the shining of Thy face;
Another year of leaning upon Thy loving breast;
Another year of trusting, of quiet, happy rest.
3 Another year of service, of witness for Thy love,
Another year of training for holier work above;
Another year is dawning, dear Father, let it be
On earth, or else in Heaven, another year for Thee. Scripture: Genesis 1:14 Tune Title: AURELIA

Blest be the God of Israel
Author: Michael Perry Hymnal: The Book of Praise #752 (1997) Meter: 13.13.13.13 First Line: Blest be the God of Israel, who comes to set us free Lyrics: 1 Blessed be the God of Israel,
who comes to set us free,
he visits and redeems us,
he grants us liberty.
The prophets spoke of mercy,
of freedom and release;
God shall fulfill his promise
and bring the gift of peace.
2 Now from the house of David
a child of grace has come,
a Saviour who will lead us
to our eternal home.
Before him goes his herald,
forerunner in the way,
the prophet of salvation,
the messinger of day.
3 On those who live in darkness
the sun begins to rise,
the dawning of forgiveness
upon the sinner's eyes;
to guide the feet of pilgrims
along the paths of peace.
Oh bless our God and Saviour
with songs that never cease!

O Jesus, I Have Promised
Author: John E. Bode Hymnal: Timeless Truths #932 Meter: 13.13.13.13 First Line: O Jesus, I have promised to serve Thee to the end Lyrics: 1. O Jesus, I have promised to serve Thee to the end;
Be Thou forever near me, my Master and my Friend;
I shall not fear the battle if Thou art by my side,
Nor wander from the pathway if Thou wilt be my Guide.
2. Oh, let me hear Thee speaking in accents clear and still,
I dare not trust my judgment: Thy way shall be my will;
Oh, speak to reassure me, to hasten or control;
Oh, speak, and help me listen, Thou Guardian of my soul.
3. O Jesus, Thou hast promised to all who follow Thee
That where Thou art in glory there shall Thy servant be;
And Jesus, I have promised to serve Thee to the end—
Oh, give me grace to follow, my Master and my Friend.
4. Oh, let me see Thy footprints, and in them plant mine own;
My hope to follow duly is in Thy strength alone;
Oh, guide me, call me, draw me, uphold me to the end;
And then in Heav'n receive me, my Savior and my Friend. Topics: Supplication Scripture: Psalm 119:57 Languages: English Tune Title: ANGEL'S STORY

Stand Up, Stand Up for Jesus
Author: George Duffield, Jr. Hymnal: Timeless Truths #943 Meter: 13.13.13.13 First Line: Stand up, stand up for Jesus! ye soldiers of the cross Lyrics: Stand up, stand up for Jesus! ye soldiers of the cross;Lift high His royal banner, it must not suffer loss:From vict’ry unto vict’ry, His army shall He lead,Till every foe is vanquished, and Christ is Lord indeed.Stand up, stand up for Jesus! The trumpet call obey:Forth to the mighty conflict, in this His glorious day;Ye that are men now serve Him against unnumbered foes;Let courage rise with danger, and strength to strength oppose.Stand up, stand up for Jesus! Stand in His strength alone,The arm of flesh will fail you, ye dare not trust your own;Put on the gospel armor, and watching unto prayer,Where calls the voice of duty, be never wanting there.Stand up, stand up for Jesus! the strife will not be long;This day the noise of battle, the next the victor’s song;To him that overcometh a crown of life shall be;He with the King of glory shall reign eternally.
