Ye Christian Heralds, Go Proclaim
Author: Bourne Hall Draper Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 474 hymnals Topics: Kingdom of God on Earth, The Missions Lyrics: 1 Ye Christian heralds, go proclaim
Salvation through Emmanuel's name;
To distant climes the tidings bear,
And plant the Rose of Sharon there.
2 God shield you with a wall of fire,
With holy zeal your hearts inspire,
Bid raging winds their fury cease,
And calm the tempests into peace.
3 And when our labors all are o'er,
Then we shall meet to part no more;
Meet with the ransomed throng to fall,
And crown our Saviour Lord of all.
Amen. Scripture: Matthew 10:32 Used With Tune: MISSIONARY CHANT
Ye Christian Heralds, Go Proclaim
Light of the world, we hail Thee
Author: Rev. John S. B. Monsell Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 128 hymnals Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth World Friendship and Peace Lyrics: 1 Light of the world, we hail Thee,
Flushing the eastern skies;
Never shall darkness veil Thee
Again from human eyes;
Too long, alas, withholden,
Now spread from shore to shore;
Thy light, so glad and golden,
Shall set on earth no more.
2 Light of the world, Thy beauty
Steals into every heart,
And glorifies with duty
Life's poorest, humblest part;
Thou robest in Thy splendor
The simple ways of men,
And helpest them to render
Light back to Thee again.
3 Light of the world, illumine
This darkened land of Thine,
Till everything that's human
Be filled with what's divine;
Till every tongue and nation,
From sin's dominion free,
Rise in the new creation
Which springs from love and Thee.
Amen. Used With Tune: MEIRIONYDD
Light of the world, we hail Thee
Lord, speak to me, that I may speak
Author: Frances R. Havergal Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 467 hymnals Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Stewardship Lyrics: 1 Lord, speak to me, that I may speak
In living echoes of Thy tone;
As Thou hast sought, so let me seek
Thy erring children lost and lone.
2 O lead me, Lord, that I may lead
The wandering and the wavering feet;
O feed me, Lord, that I may feed
Thy hungering ones with manna sweet!
3 O teach me, Lord, that I may teach
The precious things Thou dost impart;
And wing my words, that they may reach
The hidden depths of many a heart.
4 O fill me with Thy fullness, Lord,
Until my very heart o'erflow
In kindling thought and glowing word,
Thy love to tell, Thy praise to show.
5 O use me, Lord, use even me,
Just as Thou wilt, and when, and where;
Until Thy blessed face I see,
Thy rest, Thy joy, Thy glory share.
Amen. Used With Tune: CANONBURY
Lord, speak to me, that I may speak
O brothers, lift your voices
Author: Bishop Edward H. Bickersteth Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 69 hymnals Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Discipleship and Service Lyrics: 1 O brothers, lift your voices,
Triumphant songs to raise;
Till heaven on high rejoices,
And earth is filled with praise:
Ten thousand hearts are bounding
With holy hopes and free;
The gospel trump is sounding,
The trump of Jubilee.
2 O Christian brothers, glorious
Shall be the conflict's close;
The cross hath been victorious,
And shall be o'er its foes:
Faith is our battle token;
Our Leader all controls;
Our trophies, fetters broken;
Our captives, ransomed souls.
3 Not unto us, Lord Jesus:
To Thee all praise be due,
Whose blood-bought mercy frees us,
Has freed our brethren too.
Not unto us: in glory
The angels catch the strain,
And cast their crowns before Thee
Exultingly again.
4 Great God of our salvation,
Thy presence we adore;
Praise, glory, adoration
Be Thine forevermore;
Still on in conflict pressing
On Thee Thy people call,
Thee King of kings confessing,
Thee crowning Lord of all.
Amen. Used With Tune: LANCASHIRE

O Lord of heaven and earth and sea

To Thee all praise and glory be;
How shall we show our love to Thee,
Who givest all?
2 Thou didst not spare Thine only Son,
But gave Him for a world undone,
And freely with that blessed One
Thou givest all.
3 We lose what on ourselves we spend;
We have as treasures without end
Whatever, Lord, to Thee we lend,
Who givest all.
4 To Thee, from whom we all derive—
Our life, our gifts, our power to give.
O may we ever with Thee live,
Who givet all!
Amen. Used With Tune: ALMSGIVING
O Lord of heaven and earth and sea
O Master, let me walk with Thee
Author: Rev. Washington Gladden Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 590 hymnals Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Discipleship and Service Lyrics: 1 O Master, let me walk with Thee
In lowly paths of service free;
Tell me Thy secret; help me bear
The strain of toil, the fret of care.
2 Help me the slow of heart to move
By some clear, winning word of love;
Teach me the wayward feet to stay,
And guide them in the homeward way.
3 Teach me Thy patience; still with Thee
In closer, dearer company,
In work that keeps faith sweet and strong,
In trust that triumphs over wrong;
4 In hope that sends a shining ray
Far down the future's broadening way;
In peace that only Thou canst give,
With Thee, O Master, let me live.
Amen. Used With Tune: MARYTON
O Master, let me walk with Thee
Once to every man and nation
Author: James Russell Lowell Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 202 hymnals Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Discipleship and Service Lyrics: 1 Once to every man and nation
Comes the moment to decide,
In the strife of truth with falsehood,
For the good or evil side;
Some great cause, God's new Messiah,
Offering each the bloom or blight,
And the choice goes by forever
'Twixt that darkness and that light.
2 By the light of burning martyrs,
Jesus' bleeding feet I track,
Toiling up new Calvaries ever
With the cross that turns not back;
New occasions teach new duties,
Time makes ancient good uncouth;
They must upward still and onward,
Who would keep abreast of truth.
3 Though the cause of evil prosper,
Yet 't is truth alone is strong;
Though her portion be the scaffold,
And upon the throne be wrong,
Yet that scaffold sways the future,
And, behind the dim unknown,
Standeth God within the shadow
Keeping watch above His own.
Amen. Used With Tune: TON-Y-BOTEL
Once to every man and nation
Onward, Christian soldiers
Author: Rev. Sabine Baring-Gould Meter: 6.5.6.5 D with refrain Appears in 1,838 hymnals Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Discipleship and Service Lyrics: 1 Onward, Christian soldiers,
Marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus
Going on before:
Christ the royal Master
Leads against the foe;
Forward into battle,
See, His banners go.
Refrain:
Onward, Christian soldiers,
Marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus
Going on before.
2 Like a mighty army
Moves the Church of God;
Brothers, we are treading
Where the saints have trod;
We are not divided,
All one body we,
One in hope and doctrine,
One in charity. [Refrain]
3 Crowns and thrones may perish,
Kingdoms rise and wane,
But the Church of Jesus
Constant will remain;
Gates of hell can never
'Gainst that Church prevail;
We have Christ's own promise,
And that cannot fail. [Refrain]
4 Onward, then, ye people,
Join our happy throng,
Blend with ours your voices
In the triumph song;
Glory, laud, and honor
Unto Christ the King;
This through countless ages
Men and angels sing. [Refrain]
Amen. Used With Tune: ST. GERTRUDE
Onward, Christian soldiers
Rise up, O men of God!
Author: Rev. William Pierson Merrill Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 266 hymnals Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Brotherhood Lyrics: 1 Rise up, O men of God!
Have done with lesser things;
Give heart and soul and mind and strength
To serve the King of kings.
2 Rise up, O men of God!
His Kingdom tarries long;
Bring in the day of brotherhood
And end the night of wrong.
3 Rise up, O men of God!
The Church for you doth wait,
Her strength unequal to her task;
Rise up, and make her great!
4 Lift high the cross of Christ!
Tread where His feet have trod;
As brothers of the Son of Man,
Rise up, O men of God!
Amen. Used With Tune: FESTAL SONG

Saviour! Thy dying love
Author: Rev. Sylvanus D. Phelps Meter: 6.4.6.4.6.6.6.4 Appears in 576 hymnals Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Stewardship Lyrics: 1 Saviour! Thy dying love
Thou gavest me,
Nor should I aught withhold,
Dear Lord, from Thee:
In love my soul would bow,
My heart fulfill its vow,
Some offering bring Thee now,
Something for Thee.
2 At the blest mercy seat,
Pleading for me,
My feeble faith looks up,
Jesus, to Thee;
Help me the cross to bear,
Thy wondrous love declare,
Some song to raise, or prayer,
Something for Thee.
3 Give me a faithful heart,
Guided by Thee,
That each departing day
Henceforth may see
Some work of love begun,
Some deed of kindness done,
Some wanderer sought and won,
Something for Thee.
4 All that I am and have—
Thy gifts so free—
In joy, in grief, through life,
Dear Lord, for Thee;
And when Thy face I see,
My ransomed soul shall be,
Through all eternity,
Offered for Thee.
Amen. Used With Tune: SOMETHING FOR JESUS
Saviour! Thy dying love
