Man The Life-Boat!

Author: M. Woolsey Stryker Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9922 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 D First Line: Man the life-boat! Man the life-boat! Refrain First Line: Man the life-boat! Man the life-boat! Lyrics: 1 Man the life-boat! Man the life-boat! Strong and short above the roar, Sounds the order to the watchers On the tempest beaten shore, Hark! again the guns appealing! Signals burn for swift relief; There are men and wives and children, Facing death, on yonder reef! Refrain: Man the life-boat! Man the life-boat! Help, for Christ’s sake, them that drown! In the peril of great waters, Let them not in sin go down! 2 Man the life-boat! Man the life-boat! Fog and night and cruel sea, All the odds of death against them, And eternal jeopardy. Thou, who bidd’st us dare the surges, Stay us at the struggling oar! Nay! go with us to the rescue! Shall they sink in sight of shore? [Refrain] 3 Man the life-boat! Man the life-boat! Courage, fellow men! ’Tis He, Guiding us to your deliverance, Once that trod the Galilee! Lo, the Church that carrieth Jesus, Not death’s flood-gates shall o’erwhelm; Scourging storms but urge us shoreward, Life and Love are at the helm! [Refrain] 4 Man the life-boat! Man the life-boat! Think how once on breaking deck Thou didst stand aghast, till Jesus Brought thee from the lurching wreck. To the oars then! O Redeemer Let Thy heart throb thro’ our hand, Till the souls in mortal danger, Find thro’ Thee the solid land. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: CÓRDOBA

Praise the Lord! O all ye people, Young and old in glad accord, Grateful hearts in song uplifting For His goodness—praise the Lord. 3 Praise the Lord! His great redemption Reaches where no thought can climb; Rebel man, restored, forgiven, Conquered by a love sublime! Who can sing that wondrous story? Vainly choicest notes I bring; Lend your golden harps, ye seraphs, While my Savior’s love I sing. Praise the Lord! O all ye people, Young and old in glad accord, Grateful hearts in song uplifting, For a Savior—praise the Lord. Languages: English Tune Title: MORGENLIED
