Spread, O spread, almighty word
Author: Jonathan Friedrich Bahnmaier, 1774-1841; Catherine Winkworth, 1827-78 Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 97 hymnals Scripture: Luke 24:44-49 Lyrics: 1 Spread, O spread, almighty word,
spread the kingdom of the Lord,
where the breath of God has given
life to people meant for heaven.
2 Tell them how the Father's will
made the world, and keeps it still;
how his only Son he gave
all from sin and death to save.
3 Tell of our Redeemer's love,
who, for ever to remove
all the guilt that on us lies,
gave himself as sacrifice.
4 Tell them of the Spirit given
now to guide us on to heaven,
strong and holy, just and true,
working both to will and do.
5 Up! the ripening fields you see,
mighty will the harvest be;
but the reapers still are few,
great the work they have to do.
6 Lord of harvest, kind and true,
give us strength to work for you,
till the nations everywhere
see your light, and know your care. Topics: Christ's Sacrifice; Gospel Call; Holiness; Holy Spirit; Jesus Christ Kingship; Mission/Sending; People of God; Saints Days and Holy Days St Barmabas; Salvation Used With Tune: GOTT SEI DANK

Farther Along
Author: Unknown; Barney E. Warren Meter: 10.9.10.9 D Appears in 77 hymnals Scripture: Luke 24:13-48 First Line: Tempted and tried, we're oft made to wonder Refrain First Line: Farther along we’ll know more about it Lyrics: 1 Tempted and tried, we’re oft made to wonder
Why it should be thus all the day long;
While there are others living about us,
Never molested, though in the wrong.
Refrain:
Farther along we’ll know more about it,
Farther along we’ll understand why;
Cheer up, my brother, live in the sunshine,
We’ll understand it all by and by.
2 Sometimes I wonder why I must suffer,
Go in the rain, the cold, and the snow,
When there are many living in comfort,
Giving no heed to all I can do. [Refrain]
3 Tempted and tried, how often we question
Why we must suffer year after year,
Being accused by those of our loved ones,
E’en though we’ve walked in God’s holy fear. [Refrain]
4 Often when death has taken our loved ones,
Leaving our home so lone and so drear,
Then do we wonder why others prosper,
Living so wicked year after year. [Refrain]
4 “Faithful till death,” saith our loving Master;
Short is our time to labor and wait;
Then will our toiling seem to be nothing,
When we shall pass the heavenly gate. [Refrain]
5 Soon we will see our dear, loving Savior,
Hear the last trumpet sound through the sky;
Then we will meet those gone on before us,
Then we shall know and understand why.

Behold the Love, the gen'rous Love
Appears in 52 hymnals Scripture: Luke 24:44 Lyrics: 1 Behold the Love, the gen'rous Love,
that holy David shows;
Hark, how his sounding Bowels move
to his afflicted Foes!
2 When they are sick, his Soul complains,
and seems to feel the Smart;
The Spirit of the Gospel reigns,
and melts his pious Heart.
3 How did his flowing Tears condole,
as for a Brother dead!
And Fasting mortify'd his Soul,
while for their Life He pray'd.
4 They groan'd, and curs'd him on their Bed,
yet still he pleads and mourns;
And double Blessings on his Head
the righteous God returns.
5 O glorious Type of heav'nly Grace!
thus Christ the Lord appears;
While Sinners curse, the Saviour prays,
and pities them with Tears.
6 He the true David, Israel's King,
blest and belov'd of God,
To save us Rebels dead in Sin,
pay'd his own dearest Blood.
Behold the Love, the gen'rous Love
