Speed thy servants, Saviour, speed them
Author: Thomas Kelly Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 with repeat Appears in 79 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 28:19-20 Lyrics: 1 Speed thy servants, Saviour, speed them;
Thou art Lord of winds and waves;
They were bound, but thou hast freed them;
Now they go to free the slaves:
Be thou with them,
'Tis thine arm alone that save.
Be thou with them,
'Tis thine arm alone that saves.
2 Friends, and home, and all forsaking,
Lord they go at thy command,
As their stay thy promise taking,
While they traverse sea and land:
O be with them;
Lead them safely by the hand.
O be with them;
Lead them safely by the hand.
3 When they reach the land of strangers,
And the prospect dark appears,
Nothing seen but toils and dangers,
Nothing felt but doubts and fears,
Be thou with them,
Hear their sighs and count their tears.
Be thou with them,
Hear their sighs and count their tears.
4 Where no fruit appears to cheer them,
And they seem to toil in vain,
Then in mercy, Lord, draw near them,
Then their sinking hopes sustain:
Thus supported,
Let their zeal revive again.
Thus supported,
Let their zeal revive again.
5 In the midst of opposition
Let them trust, O Lord, in thee;
When success attends their mission,
Let thy servants humbler be:
Never leave them
Till thy face in heav'n they see.
Never leave them
Till thy face in heav'n they see.
Amen. Topics: The Church Missions; Ministry Ordination; Missions; Missions Used With Tune: ZION

Do all our inmost hearts possess
And we to You will ever raise
The tribute of our grateful praise.

In this our joyful Eastertide.

the paschal victory to hymn
in strains of holy joy.

crushing the serpent's head;
and cries aloud through death's domains
to wake the imprisoned dead.

at his command restore;
his ransomed hosts pursue their way
where Jesus goes before.

to him all power is given;
to him in one communion bow
all saints in earth and heaven.

all glory to the Son,
all glory, Holy Ghost to thee,
