Progress

Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: Laudes Domini #459 (1890) First Line: Like the eagle, upward, onward Lyrics: 1 Like the eagle, upward, onward, Let my soul in faith be borne: Calmly gazing, skyward, sunward, Let my eye unshrinking turn! 2 Where the cross, God's love revealing, Sets the fettered spirit free, Where it sheds its wondrous healing, There, my soul, thy rest shall be! 3 Oh, may I no longer, dreaming; Idly waste my golden day, But, each precious hour redeeming, Upward, upward, press my way!

"Leaving us an example"

Author: Samuel Johnson Hymnal: Laudes Domini #465 (1888) First Line: Onward, Christian, though the region Lyrics: 1 Onward, Christian, though the region Where thou art be drear and lone; God has set a guardian legion Very near thee; press thou on. 2 By the thorn-road, and none other, Is the mount of vision won; Tread it without shrinking, brother, Jesus trod it; press thou on. 3 Be this world the wiser, stronger, For thy life of pain and peace; While it needs thee, oh, no longer Pray thou for thy quick release. 4 Pray thou, Christian, daily rather, That thou be a faithful son; By the prayer of Jesus, "Father, Not my will, but thine, be done."

Psalm 127

Author: Harriet Auber Hymnal: Laudes Domini #466 (1888) First Line: Vainly, through night's weary hours Lyrics: 1 Vainly, through night's weary hours, Keep we watch, lest foes alarm; Vain our bulwarks, and our towers, But for God's protecting arm. 2 Vain were all our toil and labor, Did not God that labor bless; Vain, without his grace and favor, Every talent we possess. 3 Vainer still the hope of heaven, That on human strength relies; But to him shall help be given, Who in humble faith applies. 4 Seek we, then, the Lord's Anointed; He will grant us peace and rest; Ne'er was suppliant disappointed, Who thro' Christ his prayer addressed.

Courage and Faith

Author: Anon. Hymnal: Laudes Domini #467 (1888) First Line: Father, hear the prayer we offer! Lyrics: 1 Father, hear the prayer we offer! Not for ease that prayer shall be, But for strength that we may ever Live our lives courageously. 2 Not for ever by still waters Would we idly quiet stay; But would smite the living fountains From the rocks along our way. 3 Be our strength in hours of weakness, In our wanderings, be our guide; Through endeavor, failure, danger, Father, be thou at our side!
