Heralds of Christ, who bear the King's command

Author: Laura S. Copenhaver Hymnal: The Hymnal #379 (1950) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Missions Lyrics: 1 Heralds of Christ, who bear the King's commands, Immortal tidings in your mortal hands, Pass on and carry swift the news ye bring: Make straight, make straight the highway of the King. 2 Through desert ways, dark fen, and deep morass, Through jungles, sluggish seas, and mountain pass, Build ye the road, and falter not, nor stay; Prepare across the earth the King's highway. 3 Where once the crooked trail in darkness wound Let marching feet and joyous song resound, Where burn the funeral pyres, and censers swing, Make straight, make straight the highway of the King. 4 Lord, give us faith and strength the road to build, To see the promise of the day fulfilled, When war shall be no more and strife shall cease Upon the highway of the Prince of Peace. Amen. Tune Title: NATIONAL HYMN

Where cross the crowded ways of life

Author: Rev. Frank Mason North Hymnal: The Hymnal #410 (1950) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth The City Lyrics: 1 Where cross the crowded ways of life, Where sound the cries of race and clan, Above the noise of selfish strife, We hear Thy voice, O Son of Man. 2 In haunts of wretchedness and need, On shadowed thresholds dark with fears, From paths where hide the lures of greed, We catch the vision of Thy tears. 3 From tender childhood's helplessness, From woman's grief, man's burdened toil, From famished souls, from sorrow's stress, Thy heart has never known recoil. 4 The cup of water given for Thee Still holds the freshness of Thy grace; Yet long these multitudes to see The sweet compassion of Thy face. 5 O Master, from the mountain side, Make haste to heal these hearts of pain; Among these restless throngs abide, O tread the city's streets again, 6 Till sons of men shall learn Thy love, And follow where Thy feet have trod; Till glorious from Thy heaven above Shall come the City of our God. Amen. Tune Title: GERMANY
