Christ for the world we sing

Author: Samuel Wolcott Hymnal: TH1961 #371 (1961) Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Lyrics: 1 Christ for the world we sing; The world to Christ we bring With loving zeal; The poor and them that mourn, The faint and overborne, Sin-sick and sorrow-worn, Whom Christ doth heal. 2 Christ for the world we sing; The world to Christ we bring With fervent pray'r; The wayward and the lost, By restless passions tossed, Redeemed at countless cost From dark despair. 3 Christ for the world we sing; The world to Christ we bring With one accord; With us the work to share, With us reproach to dare, With us the cross to bear, For Christ our Lord. 4 Christ for the world we sing; The world to Christ we bring With joyful song; The newborn souls whose days, Reclaimed from error's ways, Inspired with hope and praise, To Christ belong.

For my sake and the gospel's go

Author: Edward H. Bickersteth Hymnal: TH1961 #377 (1961) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 "For my sake and the gospel's go And tell redemption's story"; His heralds answer, "Be it so, And thine, Lord, all the glory!" They preach his birth, his life, his cross, The love of his atonement, For whom they count the world but loss, His Easter, his enthronement. 2 Hark, hark, the trump of jubilee Proclaims to every nation, From pole to pole, by land and sea, Glad tidings of salvation: As nearer draws the day of doom, While still the battle rages, The heav'nly Day-spring through the gloom Breaks on the night of ages. 3 Still on and on the anthems spread Of alleluia voices, In concert with the holy dead The warrior church rejoices; Their snow-white robes are washed in blood, Their golden harps are ringing; Earth and the paradise of God One triumph-song are singing. 4 He comes, whose advent trumpet drowns The last of time's evangels, Emmanuel crowned with many crowns, The Lord of saints and angels: O Life, Light, Love, the great I AM, Triune, who changest never, The throne of God and of the Lamb Is thine, and thine for ever.
