Author: Conder Appears in 25 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The heavens declare his glory, Their Maker's skill the skies: Each day repeats the story, And night to night replies. Their silent proclamation Throughout the earth is heard; The record of creation, The page of nature's word. 2 So pure, so soul-restoring, Is truth's diviner ray; A brighter radiance pouring Than all the pomp of day: The wanderer surely guiding, It makes the simple wise; And evermore abiding, Unfailing joy supplies. 3 Thy word is richer treasure Than lurks within the mine; And daintiest fare less pleasure Yields than this food divine. How wise each kind monition! Led by thy counsels, Lord, How safe the saints' condition, How great is their reward! Used With Tune: [The heavens declare his glory]

No Work Too Humble

Author: T. R. Matthews Appears in 5 hymnals First Line: There is no work too humble Lyrics: 1 There is no work too humble For Christian hands to do; There is no path too lowly For our feet to pursue; Our blessed Lord and Master Was servant unto all; None were to poor and needy For him to heed their call. 2 If we are his disciples, Call'd by his holy name, A portion of his Spirit We surely ought to claim. And tho' the task be menial Which he for us hath set; His own divine example We never should forget. 3 That he, the High and Holy, Whose life-work was complete, Should gird himself for labor, And washed those humble feet! And yet we shrink from duties Which seem so far above This deed of Christ-like meekness, This tender proof of love! Topics: Living His Life Call to Activity Used With Tune: CHENIES

Author: Dr. J. M. Neale, 1818-1866; Bernard of Cluny (12th century) Appears in 249 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Brief life is here our portion; Brief sorrow, short-lived care; The life that knows no ending, The tearless life, is there. O happy retribution! Short toil, eternal rest; For mortals and for sinners A mansion with the blest! 2 And now we fight the battle, But then shall wear the crown Of full and everlasting And passionless renown; But He whom now we trust in Shall then be seen and known; And they that know and see Him Shall have Him for their own. 3 The morning shall awaken, The shadows shall decay, And each true-hearted servant Shall shine as doth the day. There God, our King and portion, In fulness of His grace, Shall we behold for ever, And worship face to face. 4 O sweet and blessed country, The home of God's elect! O sweet and blessed country That eager hearts expect! Jesus, in mercy bring us To that dear land of rest; Who art, with God the Father, And Spirit, ever blest.
