And what for Him will ye not do? Thou Spirit of the Lord, go forth, Call in the south, wake up the north; Of every clime, from sun to sun, Gather God's children into one.

Naked as from the earth we came

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 117 hymnals Topics: Gentiles given to Christ Lyrics: Naked as from the earth we came, And crept to life at first, We to the earth return again, And mingle with our dust. The dear delights we here enjoy, And fondly call our own, Are but short favors borrowed now, To be repaid anon. 'Tis God that lifts our comforts high, Or sinks them in the grave; He gives, and, blessed be his name! He takes but what he gave. Peace, all our angry passions, then; Let each rebellious sigh Be silent at his sovereign will, And every murmur die. If smiling mercy crown our lives, Its praises shall be spread; And we'll adore the justice too That strikes our comforts dead. Scripture: Job 1:21

As with gladness men of old

Appears in 641 hymnals Topics: Our Lord Jesus Christ His Manifestation to the Gentiles Lyrics: 1 As with gladness men of old Did the guiding star behold; As with joy they hail'd its light, Leading onward, beaming bright; So, most gracious Lord, may we Evermore be led to Thee. 2 As with joyful steps they sped To that lowly manger-bed, There to bend the knee before Him whom Heaven and earth adore; So may we with willing feet Ever seek the mercy-seat. 3 As they offer'd gifts most rare At that manger rude and bare; So may we with holy joy, Pure and free from sin's alloy, All our costliest treasures bring, Christ, to Thee, our heavenly King 4 Holy Jesus, every day Keep us in the narrow way; And, when earthly things are past, Bring our ransom'd souls at last Where they need no star to guide, Where no clouds Thy glory hide. 5 In the heavenly country bright Need they no created light; Thou its Light, its Joy, its Crown, Thou its Sun, which goes not down; There for ever may we sing Alleluias to our King. Amen. Used With Tune: DIX
