New Every Morning

Author: John Keble Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 368 hymnals Topics: Discipleship and Service First Line: New every morning is the love Lyrics: 1 New every morning is the love our wakening and uprising prove; through sleep and darkness safely brought, restored to life, and power, and thought. 2 New mercies, each returning day, hover around us while we pray; new perils past, new sins forgiven, new thoughts of God, new hopes of heaven. 3 If on our daily course our mind be set to hallow all we find, new treasures still of countless price God will provide for sacrifice. 4 The trivial round, the common task, will furnish all we ought to ask, room to deny ourselves, a road to bring us daily nearer God. 5 Only, O God, in your dear love, fit us for perfect rest above; and help us, this and every day, to live more nearly as we pray.

The light of God is falling

Author: Rev. Louis F. Benson Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 43 hymnals Topics: Discipleship and Service Lyrics: 1 The light of God is falling Upon life's common way; The Master's voice still calling, "Come, walk with Me today"; No duty can seem lowly To him who lives with Thee, And all of life grows holy, O Christ of Galilee! 2 Who shares his life's pure pleasures, And walks the honest road, Who trades with heaping measures, And lifts his brother's load, Who turns the wrong down bluntly, And lends the right a hand, He dwells in God's own country, He tills the Holy Land. 3 Where human lives are thronging In toil and pain and sin, While cloistered hearts are longing To bring the Kingdom in, O Christ, the Elder Brother Of proud and beaten men, When they have found each other, Thy Kingdom will come then! 4 Thy ransomed host in glory, All souls that sin and pray, Turn toward the cross that bore Thee; "Behold the Man!" they say: And while Thy Church is pleading For all who would do good, We hear Thy true voice leading Our song of brotherhood. Amen. Used With Tune: GREENLAND

The Voice of God is Calling

Author: John Haynes Holmes Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 67 hymnals Topics: Discipleship and Service Lyrics: 1. The voice of God is calling its summons in our day; Isaiah heard in Zion, and we now hear God say: "Whom shall I send to succor my people in their need? Whom shall I send to loosen the bonds of shame and greed? 2. "I hear my people crying in slum and mine and mill; no field or mart is silent, no city street is still. I see my people falling in darkness and despair. Whom shall I send to shatter the fetters which they bear?" 3. We heed, O Lord, your summons, and answer: Here are we! Send us upon your errand, let us your servants be. Our strength is dust and ashes, our years a passing hour; but you can use our weakness to magnify your power. 4. From ease and plenty save us; from pride of place absolve; purge us of low desire; lift us to high resolve; take us, and make us holy; teach us your will and way. Speak, and behold! we answer; command, and we obey! Scripture: Isaiah 6:8 Used With Tune: MEIRIONYDD
