Refrain: For the touch of His hand, For the touch of His hand, They wait in the isles of the rolling sea For the touch of His tender hand. 2 Unloved and uncherished they sink into woe For comfort your hands could bestow; O Savior, Thy heart must be breaking with grief, Still calling for reapers to go. [Refrain] 3 The Daystar is shedding His beautiful rays That each may be warmed and be blest; Yet millions now perish from cold winter’s blast, And die without comfort or rest. [Refrain] 4 The Hand that brought life to the lone widow’s son, And healing in dear Galilee— For its life-giving touch they are calling afar, They are calling to you and to me.

Transfiguration on Mount Tabor

Meter: Irregular Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 17:2 First Line: As Jesus stood on Tabor's mound Lyrics: 1 As Jesus stood on Tabor's mound, Celestial glory beam'd around, And cloth'd the man, the God, In lucid robes of spotless withe; Whilst splendors of primeval light Loos'd day's unbounded flood. 2 More pure than Salmons radiant snow: His whit'ning garments radiant flow: How chang'd his mortal form! Thus breaks the sun all glorious forth, And sev'n fold light revisits earth, As dies away the storm. 3 Behold the man! what beauties shine! 'Tis where the Father beams divine With light, and life, and grace: Those glories which surround the God, His mighty arm shall pour abroad, On Adam's naked race. 4 Lord Jesus come! From Tabor's mound, Light the whole earth with glory round: Thyself, the life, display: These bodies change to heav'nly forms: O God! my soul, my spirit warms: I pant, to see thy day.
