Hark! the Voice of Jesus Calling

Author: Daniel March (1816-1909) Meter: Appears in 519 hymnals First Line: Hark! the voice of Jesus calling, "Who will go and work today? Lyrics: 1 Hark! the voice of Jesus calling, “Who will go and work today? Fields are white, the harvest waiting, Who will bear the sheaves away?” Loud and long the Master calleth, Rich reward He offers free; Who will answer, gladly saying, “Here am I, O Lord, send me”? 2 If you cannot cross the ocean And the heathen lands explore, You can find the heathen nearer, You can help them at your door; If you cannot speak like angels, If you cannot preach like Paul, You can tell the love of Jesus, You can say He died for all. 3 If you cannot be the watchman, Standing high on Zion’s wall, Pointing out the path to heaven, Offering life and peace to all; With your prayers and with your bounties You can do what Heaven demands, You can be like faithful Aaron, Holding up the prophet’s hands. 4 While the souls of men are dying, And the Master calls for you, Let none hear you idly saying, “There is nothing I can do!” Gladly take the task He gives you, Let His work your pleasure be; Answer quickly when He calleth, “Here am I, O Lord, send me.” Topics: Christian Church Mission of the Church Scripture: Isaiah 6:8 Used With Tune: FILLMORE

I will of my ways be heedful

Meter: Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 I will of my ways be heedful, that I sin not with my tongue; for my mouth a curb is needful, while the wicked round me throng. 2 Thus I said, and dumb remained; from my lips no sound was heard; from good words I even refrained, but my inmost soul was stirred. 3 Long my heart was in me burning, ere the smothered flame out-brake, and, the enkindled words returning, thus impatiently I spake: 4 Teach me, Lord, the number meting of my days, how brief it is; make me see and know how fleeting, vain and sad a life is this. 5 Life a span is at the longest; mine is nothing, Lord, to thee; in his best estate and strongest man is only vanity. 6 Yea, he fleeting past us goeth in a shadow brief and vain, heaping riches; but none knoweth who shall gather them again. 7 And where, Lord, is my reliance? All my hope is fixed on thee. From my sin, and the defiance of the foolish, save thou me! 8 I, because it was thy pleasure, murmured not, nor silence broke; yet remove thy plague: o'er measure grievous is thy heavy stroke. 9 When for sin or slighted duty man corrected is by thee, but a moth-worn robe his beauty, and but vanity is he. 10 See my tears, regard my danger; be not deaf unto my prayer; for a sojourner and stranger am I, as my fathers were. 11 Spare me, yet a little spare me, to recover strength, before thy dread summons hence shall bear me to be seen on earth no more!

Guide me, O Thou great Jehovah

Author: William Williams; Peter Williams; John Keble Meter: Appears in 1,890 hymnals Lyrics: Guide me, O thou great Jehovah, Pilgrim through this barren land, I am weak, but thou art mighty; Hold me with thy powerful hand. Open now the crystal fountains Whence the living waters flow; Let the fiery, cloudy pillar Lead me all my journey through. Feed me with the heavenly manna In this barren wilderness; Be my sword, and shield, and banner, Be the Lord my Righteousness. When I tread the verge of Jordan, Bid my anxious fears subside; Death of death, and hell's destruction, Land me safe on Canaan's side. Amen.
