Now direct our daily labor, lest we strive for self alone; born with talents, make us servants fit to answer at your throne. 3 Treasure, too, you have entrusted, gain through powers your grace conferred; ours to use for home and kindred, and to spread the Gospel Word.

Through the night of doubt and sorrow

Author: Bernhardt Ingemann, 1789-1862; Sabine Baring-Gould, 1834-1924 Hymnal: Common Praise #605 (2000) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Through the night of doubt and sorrow onward goes the pilgrim band, singing songs of expectation, marching to the promised land. 2 Clear before us through the darkness gleams and burns the guiding light; pilgrim clasps the hand of pilgrim, stepping fearless through the night. 3 One the light of God's own presence o'er his ransomed people shed, chasing far the gloom and terror, brightening all the path we tread: 4 One the object of our journey, one the faith which never tires, one the earnest looking forward, one the hope our God inspires: 5 One the strain that lips of thousands lift as from the heart of one; one the conflict, one the peril, one the march in God begun: 6 One the gladness of rejoicing on the far eternal shore, where the one almighty Father reigns in love for evermore. *7 Onward, therefore, pilgrim brothers, onward with the cross our aid; bear its shame, and fight its battle, till we rest beneath its shade. *8 Soon shall come the great awaking, soon the rending of the tomb; then the scattering of all shadows, and the end of toil and gloom.
