My Song Forever Shall Record
Hymnal: The Hymnbook #516 (1955) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Topics: Kingdom of God on Earth, The Nation, The Lyrics: 1 My song forever shall record
The tender mercies of the Lord;
Thy faithfulness will I proclaim,
And every age shall know Thy name.
I sing of mercies that endure,
Forever builded firm and sure.
2 Almighty God, Thy lofty throne
Has justice for its cornerstone,
And shining bright before Thy face
Are truth and love and boundless grace.
The heavens shall join in glad accord
To praise Thy wondrous works, O Lord.
3 The swelling sea obeys Thy will,
Its angry waves Thy voice can still;
The heavens and earth, by right divine,
The world and all therein, are Thine;
The whole creation's wondrous frame
Proclaims its Maker's glorious name.
4 With blessing is the nation crowned
Whose people know the joyful sound;
They in the light, O Lord, shall live,
The light Thy face and favor give.
Their fame and might to Thee belong,
For in Thy favor they are strong.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 89:1-18 Tune Title: ST. PETERSBURG
My Song Forever Shall Record
"Forward!" be our watchword
Author: Rev. Henry Alford Hymnal: The Hymnal #369 (1950) Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Discipleship and Service Lyrics: 1 "Forward!" be our watchword,
Steps and voices joined;
Seek the things before us,
Not a look behind:
Burns the fiery pillar
At our army's head;
Who shall dream of shrinking,
By our Captain led?
Forward through the desert,
Through the toil and fight;
Jordan flows before us,
Zion beams with light!
2 Far o'er yon horizon
Rise the city towers,
Where our God abideth;
That fair home is ours:
Flash the streets with jasper,
Shine the gates with gold;
Flows the gladdening river,
Shedding joys untold.
Thither, onward thither,
In the Spirit's might;
Pilgrims to your country,
Forward into light!
3 To th' eternal Father
Loudest anthems raise,
To the Son, and Spirit,
Echo songs of praise,
To the Lord of glory,
Blessed Three in One,
Be by men and angels
Endless honor done.
Weak are earthly praises,
Dull the songs of night:
Forward into triumph,
Forward into light!
Amen. Tune Title: FORWARD
"Forward!" be our watchword
Heralds of Christ, who bear the King's command
Author: Laura S. Copenhaver Hymnal: The Hymnal #379 (1950) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Missions Lyrics: 1 Heralds of Christ, who bear the King's commands,
Immortal tidings in your mortal hands,
Pass on and carry swift the news ye bring:
Make straight, make straight the highway of the King.
2 Through desert ways, dark fen, and deep morass,
Through jungles, sluggish seas, and mountain pass,
Build ye the road, and falter not, nor stay;
Prepare across the earth the King's highway.
3 Where once the crooked trail in darkness wound
Let marching feet and joyous song resound,
Where burn the funeral pyres, and censers swing,
Make straight, make straight the highway of the King.
4 Lord, give us faith and strength the road to build,
To see the promise of the day fulfilled,
When war shall be no more and strife shall cease
Upon the highway of the Prince of Peace.
Amen. Tune Title: NATIONAL HYMN
Heralds of Christ, who bear the King's command
I thank Thee, Lord, for strength of arm
Author: Rev. Robert Davis Hymnal: The Hymnal #397 (1950) Meter: 8.4.8.4.8.8 Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Stewardship Lyrics: 1 I thank Thee, Lord, for strength of arm
To win my bread,
And that, beyond my need, is meat
For friend unfed:
I thank Thee much for bread to live;
I thank Thee more for bread to give.
2 I thank Thee, Lord, for snug-thatched roof
In cold and storm,
And that, beyond my need, is room
For friend forlorn:
I thank Thee much for place to rest,
But more for shelter for my guest.
3 I thank Thee, Lord, for lavish love
On me bestowed,
Enough to share with loveless folk
To ease their load:
Thy love to me I ill could spare,
Yet dearer is Thy love I share.
Amen. Tune Title: O JESU
I thank Thee, Lord, for strength of arm
Master, no offering
Author: Rev. Edwin P. Parker Hymnal: The Hymnal #407 (1950) Meter: 6.4.6.4.6.6.4 Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Brotherhood Lyrics: 1 Master, no offering
Costly and sweet,
May we, like Magdalene,
Lay at Thy feet;
Yet may love's incense rise,
Sweeter than sacrifice,
Dear Lord, to Thee,
Dear Lord, to Thee.
2 Daily our lives would show
Weakness made strong,
Toilsome and gloomy ways
Brightened with song;
Some deeds of kindness done,
Some souls by patience won,
Dear Lord, to Thee,
Dear Lord, to Thee.
3 Some word of hope for hearts
Burdened with fears,
Some balm of peace for eyes
Blinded with tears,
Some dews of mercy shed,
Some wayward footsteps led,
Dear Lord, to Thee,
Dear Lord, to Thee.
4 Thus, in Thy service, Lord,
Till eventide
Closes the day of life,
May we abide!
And when earth's labors cease,
Bid us depart in peace,
Dear Lord, to Thee,
Dear Lord, to Thee.
Amen. Tune Title: LOVE'S OFFERING
Master, no offering
Where cross the crowded ways of life
Author: Rev. Frank Mason North Hymnal: The Hymnal #410 (1950) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth The City Lyrics: 1 Where cross the crowded ways of life,
Where sound the cries of race and clan,
Above the noise of selfish strife,
We hear Thy voice, O Son of Man.
2 In haunts of wretchedness and need,
On shadowed thresholds dark with fears,
From paths where hide the lures of greed,
We catch the vision of Thy tears.
3 From tender childhood's helplessness,
From woman's grief, man's burdened toil,
From famished souls, from sorrow's stress,
Thy heart has never known recoil.
4 The cup of water given for Thee
Still holds the freshness of Thy grace;
Yet long these multitudes to see
The sweet compassion of Thy face.
5 O Master, from the mountain side,
Make haste to heal these hearts of pain;
Among these restless throngs abide,
O tread the city's streets again,
6 Till sons of men shall learn Thy love,
And follow where Thy feet have trod;
Till glorious from Thy heaven above
Shall come the City of our God.
Amen. Tune Title: GERMANY

O Lord, our God, Thy mighty hand
Author: Rev. Henry van Dyke Hymnal: The Hymnal #415 (1950) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth The Nation Lyrics: 1 O Lord, our God, Thy mighty hand
Hath made our country free;
From all her broad and happy land
May worship rise to Thee.
Fulfill the promise of her youth,
Her liberty defend;
By law and order, love and truth,
America, America, befriend!
2 The strength of every state increase
In union’s golden chain;
Her thousand cities fill with peace,
Her million fields with grain.
The virtues of her mingled blood
In one new people blend;
By unity and brotherhood,
America, America, befriend!
3 O suffer not her feet to stray;
But guide her untaught might,
That she may walk in peaceful day,
And lead the world in light.
Bring down the proud, lift up the poor,
Unequal ways amend;
By justice, nationwide and sure,
America, America, befriend!
4 Through all the waiting land proclaim
Thy gospel of good will;
And may the joy of Jesus’ Name
In every bosom thrill.
O’er hill, and vale, from sea to sea,
Thy holy reign extend;
By faith and hope and charity,
America, America, befriend!
Amen. Tune Title: AMERICA BEFRIEND
