Ye Christian heralds, go proclaim
Author: Rev. Bourne H. Draper Hymnal: The Hymnal #381 (1950) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Missions Lyrics: 1 Ye Christian heralds, go proclaim
Salvation through Emmanuel's Name;
To distant climes the tidings bear,
And plant the Rose of Sharon there.
2 God shield you with a wall of fire,
With flaming zeal your hearts inspire,
Bid raging winds their fury cease,
And hush the tempests into peace.
3 And when our labors all are o'er,
Then we shall meet to part no more;
Meet with the ransomed throng to fall,
And crown our Jesus Lord of all.
Amen. Tune Title: MISSIONARY CHANT
Ye Christian heralds, go proclaim
Fling out the banner! let it float
Author: Bishop George W. Doane Hymnal: The Hymnal #384 (1950) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Missions Lyrics: 1 Fling out the banner! let it float
Skyward and seaward, high and wide;
The sun that lights its shining folds,
The Cross on which the Saviour died.
2 Fling out the banner! angels bend
In anxious silence o'er the sign,
And vainly seek to comprehend
The wonder of the Love divine.
3 Fling out the banner! distant lands
Shall see from far the glorious sight,
And nations, crowding to be born,
Baptize their spirits in its light.
4 Fling out the banner! sin-sick souls
That sink and perish in the strife,
Shall touch in faith its radiant hem
And spring immortal into life.
5 Fling out the banner! let it float
Skyward and seaward, high and wide,
Our glory, only in the cross;
Our only hope, the Crucified!
6 Fling out the banner! wide and high,
Seaward and skyward, let it shine:
Nor skill, nor might, nor merit ours;
We conquer only in that sign.
Amen. Tune Title: WALTHAM
Fling out the banner! let it float
From Greenland's icy mountains
Author: Bishop Reginald Heber Hymnal: The Hymnal #385 (1950) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Missions Lyrics: 1 From Greenland's icy mountains,
From India's coral strand,
Where Afric's sunny fountains
Roll down their golden sand,
From many an ancient river,
From many a palmy plain,
They call us to deliver
Their land from error's chain.
2 Can we, whose souls are lighted
With wisdom from on high,
Can we to men benighted
The lamp of life deny?
Salvation! O salvation!
The joyful sound proclaim
Till each remotest nation
Has learned Messiah's Name.
3 Waft, waft, ye winds, His story,
And you, ye waters, roll,
Till like a sea of glory
It spreads from pole to pole;
Till o'er our ransomed nature
The Lamb for sinners slain,
Redeemer, King, Creator,
In bliss returns to reign.
Amen. Tune Title: MISSIONARY HYMN
From Greenland's icy mountains
The morning light is breaking
Author: Rev. Samuel F. Smith Hymnal: The Hymnal #389 (1950) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Missions Lyrics: 1 The morning light is breaking,
The darkness disappears;
The sons of earth are waking
To penitential tears;
Each breeze that sweeps the ocean
Brings tidings from afar
Of nations in commotion,
Prepared for Zion's war.
2 Blest river of salvation,
Pursue thy onward way;
Flow thou to every nation,
Nor in thy richness stay:
Stay not till all the lowly
Triumphant reach their home;
Stay not till all the holy
Proclaim, "The Lord is come."
Amen. Tune Title: WEBB
The morning light is breaking
Hail to the brightness of Zion's glad morning!
Author: Thomas Hastings Hymnal: The Hymnal #391 (1950) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Missions Lyrics: 1 Hail to the brightness of Zion's glad morning!
Joy to the lands that in darkness have lain!
Hushed be the accents of sorrow and mourning;
Zion in triumph begins her mild reign.
2 Hail to the brightness of Zion's glad morning,
Long by the prophets of Israel foretold!
Hail to the millions from bondage returning!
Gentiles and Jews the blest vision behold.
3 Lo, in the desert rich flowers are springing,
Streams ever copious are gliding along;
Loud from the mountain tops echoes are ringing,
Wastes rise in verdure, and mingle in song.
4 See, from all lands, from the isles of the ocean,
Praise to the Saviour ascending on high;
Fallen the engines of war and commotion,
Shouts of salvation are rending the sky.
Amen.
Hail to the brightness of Zion's glad morning!
We give Thee but Thine own
Author: Bishop W. Walsham How Hymnal: The Hymnal #394 (1950) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Stewardship Lyrics: 1 We give Thee but Thine own,
Whate'er the gift may be:
All that we have is Thine alone,
A trust, O Lord, from Thee.
2 May we Thy bounties thus
As stewards true receive,
And gladly, as Thou blessest us,
To Thee our first fruits give.
3 To comfort and to bless,
To find a balm for woe,
To tend the lone and fatherless,
Is angels' work below.
4 The captive to release,
To God the lost to bring,
To teach the way of life and peace—
It is a Christ-like thing.
5 And we believe Thy word,
Though dim our faith may be:
Whate'er for Thine we do, O Lord,
We do it unto Thee.
Amen. Tune Title: SCHUMANN
We give Thee but Thine own
Eternal Ruler of the ceaseless round
Author: Rev. John W. Chadwick Hymnal: The Hymnal #406 (1950) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Brotherhood Lyrics: 1 Eternal Ruler of the ceaseless round
Of circling planets singing on their way;
Guide of the nations from the night profound
Into the glory of the perfect day;
Rule in our hearts, that we may ever be
Guided and strengthened and upheld by Thee.
2 We are of Thee, the children of Thy love,
The brothers of Thy well-beloved Son;
Descend, O Holy Spirit, like a dove
Into our hearts, that we may be as one;
As one with Thee, to whom we ever tend,
As one with Him, our Brother and our Friend.
3 We would be one in hatred of all wrong,
One in our love of all things sweet and fair,
One with the joy that breaketh into song,
One with the grief that trembles into prayer,
One in the power that makes Thy children free
To follow truth, and thus to follow Thee.
Amen. Tune Title: UNDE ET MEMORES
Eternal Ruler of the ceaseless round
My country, 'tis of thee
Author: Rev. Samuel F. Smith Hymnal: The Hymnal #412 (1950) Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth The Nation Lyrics: 1 My country, 'tis of thee,
Sweet land of liberty,
Of thee I sing;
Land where my fathers died,
Land of the pilgrims' pride,
From every mountain side
Let freedom ring.
2 My native country, thee,
Land of the noble free,
Thy name I love;
I love thy rocks and rills;
Thy woods and templed hills;
My heart with rapture thrills
Like that above.
3 Let music swell the breeze,
And ring from all the trees
Sweet freedom's song;
Let mortal tongues awake;
Let all that breathe partake;
Let rocks their silence break,
The sound prolong.
4 Our fathers' God, to Thee,
Author of liberty,
To Thee we sing;
Long may our land be bright
With freedom's holy light;
Protect us by Thy might,
Great God, our King.
Amen. Tune Title: AMERICA
My country, 'tis of thee
Braving the wilds all unexplored
Author: Rev. Robert Freeman Hymnal: The Hymnal #418 (1950) Meter: 8.8.8.10.8.8 Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth The Nation Lyrics: 1 Braving the wilds all unexplored,
Dreamers of dreams and pioneers,
Wielding the sickle, goad, and sword,
They marched with the sun to the last frontiers—
God of the valiant, grant that we,
Their sons, do follow valiantly!
2 Fair knights of justice and of good,
They gave to evil battle gage;
Bearing their souls in rectitude,
They left a goodly heritage—
God of the righteous, grant that we,
Their sons, do follow righteously!
3 Guards of the sacred altar flame,
Bringers of learning and of faith,
They lumined life in the blessed Name,
And hope they flared in the day of death—
God of the faithful, grant that we,
Their sons, do follow faithfully!
4 Theirs was the Presence ever sure,
Theirs was the all-abounding grace,
Theirs was the passion ever pure
To honor the Lord in all their ways—
God of the Christ-like, grant that we
Do follow, follow worthily!
Amen. Tune Title: MARCUS WHITMAN
Braving the wilds all unexplored
Yes, we trust the day is breaking
Hymnal: The Hymnal #441 (1956) Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Missions and World Fellowship Scripture: Isaiah 9:2 Tune Title: REGENT SQUARE
Yes, we trust the day is breaking
