Jesus, Thou Divine Companion

Author: Henry van Dyke, 1852-1933 Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #48 (1957) Topics: Labor Day Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thou divine Companion, By Thy lowly human birth Thou hast come to join the workers, Burden-bearers of the earth. Thou, the Carpenter of Naz'reth, Toiling for Thy daily food, By Thy patience and Thy courage Thou have taught us work is good. 2 They who tread the path of labor Follow where Thy feet have trod; They who work without complaining Do the holy will of God. Thou, the peace that passes knowledge, Dwelling in the daily strife; Thou, the Bread of heav'n, art broken In the sacrament of life. 3 Every task, however simple, Sets the soul that does it free; Every deed of human kindness Done to man is done to Thee. Jesus, Thou divine Companion, Help us all to work our best; Bless us in our daily labor, Lead us to our Sabbath rest. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: HYFRYDOL

When hope and courage falter, Lord, let your voice be heard; with faith that none can alter, your servants undergird. 4 Keep bright in us the vision of days when war shall cease, when hatred and division give way to love and peace, till dawns the morning glorious when truth and justice reign, and Christ shall rule victorious o'er all the world's domain.
