O How Shall I Receive Thee
Today Your Mercy Calls Us
Author: Oswald Allen, 1816-78 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 94 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Today your mercy calls us
To wash away our sin.
However great our trespass,
Whatever we have been,
However long from mercy
Our hearts have turned away,
Your precious blood can wash us
And make us clean today.
2 Today your gate is open,
And all who enter in
Shall find a Father's welcome
And pardon for their sin.
The past shall be forgotten,
A present joy be giv'n,
A future grace be promised:
A glorious crown in heav'n.
3 Today our Father calls us;
His Holy Spirit waits.
His blessed angels gather
Around the heav'nly gates.
No question will be asked us
How often we have come;
Although we oft have wandered,
It is our Father's home.
4 O all-embracing Mercy,
O ever-open Door,
What should we do without you
When heart and eye run o'er?
When all things seem against us,
To drive us to despair,
We know one gate is open,
One ear will hear our prayer. Topics: Invitation; Invitation Used With Tune: ANTHES

Lord of the Living Harvest
Author: John S. B. Monsell, 1811-75 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 119 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord of the living harvest
That whitens on the plain,
Where angels soon shall gather
Their sheaves of golden grain,
Accept these hands to labor,
These hearts to trust and love,
And with them ever hasten
Your kingdom from above.
2 As lab'rers in your vineyard,
Help them be ever true,
Content to bear the burden
Of weary days for you,
To ask no other wages
When you will call them home
Than to have shared the labor
That makes your kingdom come.
3 Be with them, God the Father,
Be with them, God the Son
And God the Holy Spirit,
Most blessed Three in One.
Teach them, as faithful servants
You rightly to adore,
And fill them with your fullness
Both now and evermore.

When the King Shall Come Again
Author: Christopher Idle, b. 1938 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 21 hymnals Lyrics: 1 When the King shall come again
All his pow'r revealing,
Splendor shall announce his reign,
Life and joy and healing;
Earth no longer in decay,
Hope no more frustrated;
This is God's redemption day
Longingly awaited.
2 In the desert trees take root
Fresh from his creation;
Plants and flow'rs and sweetest fruit
Join the celebration;
Rivers spring up from the earth,
Barren lands adorning;
Valleys, this is your new birth,
Mountains, greet the morning!
3 Strengthen feeble hands and knees,
Fainting hearts, be cheerful!
God who comes for such as these
Seeks and saves the fearful;
Deaf ears, hear the silent tongues
Sing away their weeping;
Blind eyes, see the lifeless ones
Walking, running, leaping.
4 There God's highway shall be seen
Where no roaring lion,
Nothing evil or unclean
Walks the road to Zion:
Ransomed people homeward bound
All your praises voicing,
See your Lord with glory crowned,
Share in his rejoicing! Topics: Kingdom/Reign of God; Second Coming; Service Music for Mass Save Us, Savior; The Liturgical Year Advent (Sundays and Weekdays); The Liturgical Year Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe Scripture: Isaiah 35 Used With Tune: GAUDEAMUS PARITER
