Hark, the Voice of Jesus Calling

Author: Daniel March Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 515 hymnals Topics: Invitation to Consecration Lyrics: 1 Hark, the voice of Jesus calling, "Who will go and work today? Fields are white, and harvests waiting, Who will bear the sheaves away?" Loud and long the Master calls us, Rich reward He offers free; Who will answer, gladly saying, "Here am I, send me, send me"? 2 If you cannot be the watchman Standing high on Zion's wall, Pointing out the path to heaven, Off'ring life and peace to all, If you cannot speak like angels, If you cannot preach like Paul, You can tell the love of Jesus, You can say, "He died for all." 3 Let none hear you idly saying, "There is nothing I can do," While the lost of earth are dying, And the Master calls for you; Take the task He gives you gladly; Let His work your pleasure be; Answer quickly when He calleth, "Here am I; send me, send me." Amen. Scripture: Isaiah 6:8 Used With Tune: ELLESDIE

When I Survey the Wondrous Cross

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2,057 hymnals Topics: Invitation to Consecration Lyrics: 1 When I survey the wondrous cross, On which the Prince of glory died, My richest gain I count but loss, And pour contempt on all my pride. 2 Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast, Save in the death of Christ, my God; All the vain things that charm me most, I sacrifice them to His blood. 3 See, from His head, His hands, His feet, Sorrow and love flow mingled down; Did e’er such love and sorrow meet, Or thorns compose so rich a crown? 4 Were the whole realm of nature mine, That were a present far too small; Love so amazing, so divine, Demands my soul, my life, my all. Amen. Scripture: Romans 12:1 Used With Tune: HAMBURG

He loved me ere I knew Him; He drew me with the cords of love, And thus He bound me to Him. And round my heart still closely twine Those ties which naught can sever, For I am His and He is mine, Forever and forever. 2 I’ve found a Friend, O such a Friend! He bled, He died to save me; And not alone the gift of life, But His own self He gave me. Naught that I have mine own I call, I’ll hold it for the Giver; My heart, my strength, my life, my all Are His, and His forever. 3 I’ve found a Friend, O such a Friend! So kind and true and tender, So wise a Counselor and Guide, So mighty a Defender! From Him who loves me now so well What pow'r my soul can sever? Shall life or death, or earth or hell? No! I am His forever. Scripture: Jeremiah 31:3 Used With Tune: FRIEND
