Thyself Instead

Look Up! Behold, The Fields Are White

Author: M. Lowrie Hofford Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9938 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 Look up! behold, the fields are white, The harvest time is near; The summons of the Master falls Upon the reaper’s ear: Go forth into the golden grain And bind the precious sheaves, And garner for the Lord of Hosts The harvest which He gives. 2 Look up! behold, the fields are white, The laborers are few, The gathering of the harvest must By grace depend on you: Go forth throughout the busy world, The world of want and sin, And gather for the Lord of Hosts Its dying millions in. 3 Look up! behold, the fields are white, The Master soon will come, And carry with rejoicing heart His gathered trophies home; And can you stand with empty arms, While gladly He receives From others in the harvest field A load of precious sheaves?

Bright Glory Beams

A Thanksgiving

The Missionary Triumph

Author: Dwight Spencer Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10036 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D First Line: Awake! awake! put on thy strength Lyrics: 1 Awake! awake! put on thy strength, Church of the living God; Shine forth! shine forth! thy light is come, Its beams diffuse abroad; To nations that in darkness wait, Send forth thy heralds bold; Till round the earth from pole to pole, The tidings glad are told. 2 They plead, "Send help!" Our country’s sons, From snow clad mount to sea; "Send forth! send forth! the Bread of Life," O hear your brother’s plea; And Asia’s millions join the cry, With Afric’s starving throng, While distant islands of the sea, The plaintive cry prolong. 3 They come! they come! The ransomed ones, Where’er on earth their homes; Lift up! lift up! thine eyes and see, At last thy triumph comes. O glorious hour! the voice from Heav’n Proclaims from shore to shore. They kingdoms of this world are Christ’s, He reigns forevermore. Languages: English Tune Title: TALLINN

Unfurl The Christian Standard

Author: Frances R. Havergal Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10061 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D First Line: Unfurl the Christian standard! Lyrics: 1 Unfurl the Christian standard! Lift it manfully on high, And rally where its shining folds Wave out against the sky! Away with weak half-heartedness, With faithlessness and fear! Unfurl the Christian standard, And follow with a cheer! 2 In God’s own name we set it up, This banner brave and bright, Uplifted for the cause of Christ, The cause of truth and right; The cause that none can overthrow, The cause that must prevail, Because the promise of the Lord Can never, never fail! 3 Now, who is on the Lord’s side, who? Come, throng His battlefield. Be strong, and show that ye are men! Come forth with sword and shield! What peace, while traitorous evil Stalks in false array of light? What peace, while enemies of Christ Are gathering for the fight? 4 Unfurl the Christian standard, With firm and fearless hands! For no pale flag of compromise With Error’s legion bands, And no faint hearted flag of truce With Mischief and with Wrong, Should lead the soldiers of the Cross, The faithful and the strong. 5 Unfurl the Christian standard, And follow through the strife The noble army who have won The martyr’s crown of life; Our ancestors could die for truth, Could brave the deadly glow, And shall we let the standard fall, And yield it to the foe? 6 But if ye dare not hold it fast, Yours only is the loss, For it shall be victorious, This Standard of the Cross! It shall not suffer, though ye rest Beneath your sheltering trees, And cast away the victor’s crown For love of timid ease. 7 The Lord of Hosts, in whom alone Our weakness shall be strong, Shall lead us on to conquest With a mighty battle song; And soon the warfare shall be past, The glorious triumph won, The kingdoms of the world shall be The kingdoms of His Son!

Give Thanks To God, Invoke His Name

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10075 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 Give thanks to God, invoke His name, And tell the world His grace; Sound through the earth His deeds of fame, That all may seek His face. His covenant, which He kept in mind For numerous ages past, To numerous ages yet behind In equal force shall last. 2 He swore to Abraham and his seed, And made the blessing sure; Gentiles the ancient promise read, And find His truth endure. Thy seed shall make all nations blessed, Said the almighty voice, And Canaan’s land shall be their rest, The type of heav’nly joys. 3 How large the grant! How rich the grace, To give them Canaan’s land, When they were strangers in the place, A little feeble band! Like pilgrims through the countries round Securely they removed; And haughty kings that on them frowned Severely He reproved. 4 Touch Mine anointed, and My arm Shall soon revenge the wrong: The man that does My prophets harm, Shall know their God is strong. Then let the world forbear its rage, Nor put the church in fear; Israel must live through every age, And be th’Almighty’s care. 5 When Pharaoh dared to vex the saints, And thus provoked their God, Moses was sent at their complaints, Armed with his dreadful rod. He called for darkness; darkness came Like an o’erwhelming flood; He turned each lake and every stream To lakes and streams of blood. 6 He gave the sign and noisome flies Through the whole country spread; And frogs in croaking armies rise About the monarch’s bed. Through fields, and towns, and palaces, The tenfold vengeance flew; Locusts in swarms devoured their trees, And hail their cattle slew. 7 Then by an angel’s midnight stroke The flower of Egypt died; The strength of every house was broke, Their glory and their pride. Now let the world forbear its rage, Nor put the church in fear; Israel must live through every age, And be th’Almighty’s care. 8 Thus were the tribes from bondage brought, And left the hated ground; Each some Egyptian spoils had got, And not one feeble found. The Lord Himself chose out their way, And marked their journeys right; Gave them a leading cloud by day, A fiery guide by night. 9 They thirst, and waters from the rock In rich abundance flow; And following still the course they took, Ran all the desert through. O wondrous stream! O blessed type Of ever flowing grace! So Christ, our Rock, maintains our life Through all this wilderness. 10 Thus guarded by th’almighty hand, The chosen tribes possessed Canaan, the rich, the promised land, And there enjoyed their rest. Then let the world forbear its rage, The church renounce her fear; Israel must live through every age, And be th’Almighty’s care. Languages: English Tune Title: ALIDA

Go, Tell The Nations Christ Is King

Author: Priscilla J. Owens Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10099 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 Go, tell the nations Christ is king, His hands the world uphold; He guides each planet’s shining ring, And spreads the cloud’s dark fold; Go, cast the false gods in the dust, The idols trample down, And place in Him your only trust, For Jesus wears the crown. 2 Go, tell the nations of the blood On Calv’ry freely spilt, The healing streams, the precious flood, To wash away their guilt. Tell them to trust no human rites, That earthly gold is dross; And yet to pardon God delights, Since Jesus bore the cross. 3 Go, tell the nations of the hope, The joy by Jesus giv’n, And bid the darkened eyes look up, Beyond the stars, to Heav’n. Oh, let your hearts with love o’erflow, Cross o’er the heaving tide, Till all the lands of earth shall know The Crowned, once Crucified. Languages: English Tune Title: LANDÅS

Dear Savior, Take My Hand

Lowrie Hofford Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10101 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D First Line: Dear Savior, take my hand in Thine Lyrics: 1 Dear Savior, take my hand in Thine And lead me every day, That I may never take a step But in the shining way; I cannot on myself rely, I cannot walk alone; O Savior, take my hand in Thine, And lead me as Thine own. 2 O Savior, take my hand in Thine, ’Tis oft a weary way; And I have never found myself Sufficient for the day; Upon Thy help I must rely My journey to pursue; O Savior, take my hand in Thine, And daily strength renew. 3 O Savior, take my hand in Thine, Thou only know’st the way; And Thou canst lead me in the path That ends in perfect day; Thy gentle hand will safely guide My pilgrim feet above, And thro’ the everlasting years I’ll magnify Thy love.
