And prove Thy acceptable will.

And hasten to Thy glorious day.

Whate'er Thy bounteous grace hath given;
And run my course with even joy,
And closely walk with Thee to heaven. Languages: English Tune Title: LAUDS

Have I Done Any Good?
Author: Will L. Thompson, 1847–1909 Hymnal: Hymns of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints #223 (1985) Meter: Irregular Topics: Duty Refrain First Line: Then wake up and do something more Lyrics: 1. Have I done any good in the world today?
Have I helped anyone in need?
Have I cheered up the sad and made someone feel glad?
If not, I have failed indeed.
Has anyone’s burden been lighter today
Because I was willing to share?
Have the sick and the weary been helped on their way?
When they needed my help was I there?
Chorus:
Then wake up and do something more
Than dream of your mansion above.
Doing good is a pleasure, a joy beyond measure,
A blessing of duty and love.
2. There are chances for work all around just now,
Opportunities right in our way.
Do not let them pass by, saying, “Sometime I’ll try,”
But go and do something today.
’Tis noble of man to work and to give;
Love’s labor has merit alone.
Only he who does something helps others to live.
To God each good work will be known. [Chorus] Scripture: James 1:22 Languages: English Tune Title: EAST LIVERPOOL

Sweet is the sunlight after rain
Author: Dr. W. M. Punshon, 1824-1881 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #249 (1917) Topics: Duty Lyrics: 1 Sweet is the sunlight after rain,
And sweet the sleep which follows pain;
And sweetly steals the Sabbath rest
Upon the world's work-wearied breast.
2 Of heaven the sign, of earth the calm;
The poor man's birthright and his balm;
God's witness of celestial things;
A sun with healing in its wings.
3 New rising in this gospel time,
And in its sevenfold light sublime,
Blest day of God! we hail its dawn,
To gratitude and worship drawn.
4 O nought of gloom and nought of pride
Should with the sacred hours abide;
At work for God, in loved employ,
We lose the duty in the joy.
5 Breathe on us, Lord! our sins forgive,
And make us strong in faith to live;
Our utmost, sorest need supply,
And make us strong in faith to die. Languages: English Tune Title: ARIZONA
Sweet is the sunlight after rain
O God beyond All Praising
Author: Michael Perry Hymnal: Voices United #256 (1996) Meter: 13.13.13.13.13.13 Topics: Duty First Line: O God beyond all praising, we worship you today Lyrics: 1 O God beyond all praising, we worship you today
and sing the love amazing that songs cannot repay;
for we can only wonder at every gift you send,
at blessing without number and mercies without end:
we lift our hearts before you and wait upon your word,
we honour and adore you, our great and mighty Lord.
2 The flower of earthly splendour in time must surely die,
its fragile bloom surrender to you our God most high;
but hidden from all nature the eternal seed is sown,
though small in mortal stature, to heaven's garden grown:
for Christ, your gift from heaven, from death has set us free,
and we through him are given the final victory.
3 Then, hear O gracious Saviour, this song of praise we sing.
May we, who know your favour, our humble service bring;
and whether our tomorrows be filled with good or ill,
we'll triumph through our sorrows and rise to bless you still:
to marvel at your beauty and glory in your ways,
and make a joyful duty our sacrifice of praise. Languages: English Tune Title: THAXTED
O God beyond All Praising
The Time Is Far Spent
Author: Eliza R. Snow, 1804–1887 Hymnal: Hymns of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints #266 (1985) Meter: 12.11.12.11.11 Topics: Duty First Line: The time is far spent; there is little remaining Lyrics: 1. The time is far spent; there is little remaining
To publish glad tidings by sea and by land.
Then hasten, ye heralds; go forward proclaiming:
Repent, for the kingdom of heaven’s at hand,
Repent, for the kingdom of heaven’s at hand.
2. Shrink not from your duty, however unpleasant,
But follow the Savior, your pattern and friend.
Our little afflictions, tho painful at present,
Ere long, with the righteous, in glory will end,
Ere long, with the righteous, in glory will end.
3. What, tho, if the favor of Ahman possessing,
This world’s bitter hate you are called to endure?
The angels are waiting to crown you with blessings!
Go forward, be faithful, the promise is sure.
Go forward, be faithful, the promise is sure.
4. Be fixed in your purpose, for Satan will try you;
The weight of your calling he perfectly knows.
Your path may be thorny, but Jesus is nigh you;
His arm is sufficient, tho demons oppose.
His arm is sufficient, tho demons oppose. Languages: English Tune Title: KRAMBAMBULI
