Forward through the desert, Through the toil and fight; Jordan flows before us, Zion beams with light! 2 Far o'er yon horizon Rise the city towers, Where our God abideth; That fair home is ours: Flash the streets with jasper, Shine the gates with gold; Flows the gladdening river, Shedding joys untold. Thither, onward thither, In the Spirit's might; Pilgrims to your country, Forward into light! 3 To th' eternal Father Loudest anthems raise, To the Son, and Spirit, Echo songs of praise, To the Lord of glory, Blessed Three in One, Be by men and angels Endless honor done. Weak are earthly praises, Dull the songs of night: Forward into triumph, Forward into light! Amen. Used With Tune: FORWARD

Make me a captive, Lord

Author: Rev. George Matheson (1842-1906) Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Appears in 122 hymnals Topics: Discipleship and Service Lyrics: 1 Make me a captive, Lord, And then I shall be free; Force me to render up my sword, And I shall conqueror be. I sink in life's alarms When by myself I stand; Imprison me within Thine arms, And strong shall be my hand. 2 My heart is weak and poor Until it master find; It has no spring of action sure— It varies with the wind. It cannot freely move Till Thou hast wrought its chain; Enslave it with Thy matchless love, And deathless it shall reign. 3 My power is faint and low Till I have learned to serve; It wants the needed fire to glow, It wants the breeze to nerve; It cannot drive the world Until itself be driven; Its flag can only be unfurled When Thou shalt breathe from heaven. 4 My will is not my own Till Thou hast made it Thine; If it would reach a monarch's throne, It must its crown resign; It only stands unbent Amid the clashing strife, When on Thy bosom it has leant And found in Thee its life. Amen. Used With Tune: LEOMINSTER
