Speed Thy servants, Saviour, speed them

Author: T. Kelley Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Appears in 79 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Speed Thy servants, Saviour, speed them; Thou art Lord of winds and waves, They were bound, but Thou hast freed them; Now they go to free the slaves; Be Thou with them: 'Tis Thine arm alone that saves. 2 Friends and home and all forsaking, Lord, they go at Thy command, As their stay Thy promise taking, While they traverse sea and land: Oh, be with them! Lead them safely by the hand. 3 When they reach the land of strangers, And the prospect dark appears, Nothing seen but toils and dangers, Nothing felt but doubts and fears, Be Thou with them; Hear their sighs, and count their tears. 4 Where no fruit appears to cheer them, And they seem to toil in vain: Then in mercy, Lord, draw near them, Then their sinking hopes sustain: Thus supported, Let their zeal revive again. 5 In the midst of opposition, Let them trust, O Lord, in Thee; When success attends their mission, Let Thy servants humbler be; Never leave them, Till Thy face in heaven they see: 6 There to reap in joy forever Fruit that grows from seed here sown; There to be with Him, Who never Ceases to preserve His own; And with gladness Give the praise to Him alone. Amen. Topics: Missions Used With Tune: ST. RAPHAEL

Before Thy throne of grace I fall; Be merciful to me. 2 Out of the deep I cry, The woful deep of sin, Of evil done in days gone by, Of evil now within. 3 Out of the deep of fear And dread of coming shame, From morning watch till night is near I plead the precious Name. 4 Lord, there is mercy now, As ever was, with Thee; Before Thy throne of grace I bow; Be merciful to me.

At the cross her station keeping

Author: E. Caswall; R. Mant Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 134 hymnals Lyrics: 1 At the cross her station keeping Stood the mournful mother weeping, Where He hung, the dying Lord; For her soul of joy bereavèd, Bowed with anguish deeply grievèd, Felt the sharp and piercing sword. 2 Oh, how sad and sore distressèd, Now was she, that mother blessèd Of the sole-begotten One; Deep the woe of her affliction, When she saw the crucifixion Of her ever-glorious Son. 3 Who, on Christ's dear mother gazing, Pierced by anguish so amazing, Born of woman, would not weep? Who, on Christ's dear mother thinking, Such a cup of sorrow drinking, Would not share her sorrows deep? 4 For His people's sins chastisèd, She beheld her Son despisèd, Scourged and crowned with thorns entwined; Saw Him then from judgment taken, And in death by all forsaken, Till His spirit He resigned. 5 Jesu, may her deep devotion Stir in me the same emotion, Fount of love, Redeemer kind; That my heart fresh ardor gaining, And a purer love attaining, May with Thee acceptance find. Amen. Topics: Holy Week Used With Tune: STABAT MATER NO. 1 Text Sources: Latin

Who are these in bright array

Author: J. Montgomery Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 377 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Who are these in bright array, This innumerable throng, Round the altar, night and day, Tuning their triumphant song? "Worthy is the Lamb, once slain, Blessing, honor, glory, power, Wisdom, riches to obtain, New dominion every hour." 2 These through fiery trials trod; These from great affliction came; Now before the throne of God, Sealed with His eternal Name; Clad in raiment pure and white, Victor palms in every hand, Through their great Redeemer's might, More than conquerors they stand. 3 Hunger, thirst, disease, unknown, On immortal fruits they feed; Them the Lamb amidst the throne Shall to living fountains lead: Joy and gladness banish sighs; Perfect love dispels their fears, And for ever from their eyes God shall wipe away all tears. Amen. Topics: All Saints; Burial of the Dead; Processionals Saints' Days Used With Tune: RAPTURE

Author: B. Beddome Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 232 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Witness, ye men and angels; now Before the Lord we speak; To Him we make our solemn vow, A vow we dare not break; 2 That long as life itself shall last, Ourselves to Christ we yield; Nor from His cause will we depart, Or ever quit the field. 3 We trust not in our native strength, But on His grace rely; That, with returning wants, the Lord Will all our needs supply. 4 Lord, guide our doubtful feet aright, And keep us in Thy ways; And, while we turn our vows to prayers, Turn Thou our prayers to praise. Amen. Topics: Confession of Christ; Confirmation Used With Tune: ST. MAGNUS
