Many voices seem to say

Appears in 36 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Many voices seem to say, Hither, children here's the way; haste along, and nothing fear Every pleasant thing is here! 2 Yes--but whither would you lead? It is happiness indeed? Or a little shining show, Leading down to death and wo? 3 We were made for better things; High as heaven our nature springs; Like the lark that upward flies, We were made to seek the skies. 4 We were made to love and fear That great God who placed us here; Made to study and fulfil All his good and holy will. 5 We were made to work awhile, Cheerful at our work to smile; Thinking as we labour thus, Of the heaven prepared for us.

Onward, Christian, Though the Region

Author: Samuel Johnson Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 113 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Onward, Christian, though the region Where thou art be drear and lone; God has set a guardian legion Very near thee; press thou on. 2. By the thorn road, and none other, Is the mount of vision won; Tread it without shrinking, brother, Jesus trod it; press thou on. 3. Be this world the wiser, stronger, For thy life of pain and peace; While it needs thee, oh, no longer Pray thou for thy quick release. 4. Pray thou, Christian, daily rather That thou be a faithful son, By the prayer of Jesus, Father Not my will, but Thine, be done. Used With Tune: WILMOT Text Sources: A Book of Hymns, 1846
