Go, labor on: spend, and be spent

Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #496 (1961) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Faithfulness Lyrics: 1 Go, labor on: spend, and be spent, Thy joy to do the Father's will; It is the way the Master went; Should not the servant tread it still? 2 Go, labor on: 'tis not for naught; Thine earthly loss is heav'nly gain; Men heed thee, love thee, praise thee not; The Master praises:—what are men? 3 Go, labor on: enough while here If he shall praise thee, if he deign Thy willing heart to mark and cheer; No toil for him shall be in vain. 4 Go, labor on while it is day: The world's dark night is hast'ning on. Speed, speed thy work, cast sloth away; It is not thus that souls are won. 5 Toil on, faint not, keep watch and pray; Be wise the erring soul to win; Go forth into the world's highway, Compel the wand'rer to come in. 6 Toil on, and in thy toil rejoice; For toil comes rest, for exile home; Soon shalt thou hear the Bridegroom's voice, The midnight peal, "Behold, I come." Amen. Scripture: John 9:4 Languages: English Tune Title: PENTECOST

The Master Has Come

Author: Sarah Doudney Hymnal: Sing Joyfully #502 (1989) Topics: Faithfulness of the believer Lyrics: 1 The Master has come, and He calls us to follow The track of the footprints He leaves on our way; Far over the mountain and thru the deep hollow The path leads us on to the mansions of day. The Master has called us, the children who fear Him, Who march 'neath Christ's banner, His own little band: We love Him and seek Him, we long to be near Him, And rest in the light of His beautiful land. 2 The Master has called us--the road may be dreary, And danger and sorrow are strewn on the track; But God's Holy Spirit shall comfort the weary-- We follow the Savior and cannot turn back. The Master has called us--tho' doubt and temptation May compass our journey, we cheerfully sing: "Press onward, look upward"--thru much tribulation The children of Zion must follow their King. 3 The Master has called us in life's early morning, With spirits as fresh as the dew on the sod; We turn from the world with its smiles and its scorning To cast in our lot with the people of God. The Master has called us, His sons and His daughters, We plead for His blessing and trust in His love: And thru the green pastures, beside the still waters, He'll lead us at last to His kingdom above.

'I lift my banners,' saith the Lord

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #502 (1835) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Faithfulness of man Lyrics: "I lift my banner," saith the Lord, "Where Antichrist has stood; The city of my gospel foes Shall be a field of blood. "My heart has studied just revenge, And now the day appears; The day of my redeemed is come To wipe away their tears. "Quite weary is my patience grown, And bids my fury go; Swift as the lightning it shall move, And be as fatal too. "I call for helpers, but in vain; Then has my gospel none? Well, mine own arm has might enough To crush my foes alone. "Slaughter and my devouring sword Shall walk the streets around, Babel shall reel beneath my stroke, And stagger to the ground." Thy honors, O victorious King! Thine own right hand shall raise, While we thy awful vengeance sing, And our deliv'rer praise. Scripture: Isaiah 63:4-7 Languages: English

Author: J. Montgomery, 1771-1854; Mrs. Hutton Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #507 (1917) Topics: Faithfulness Under trial Lyrics: 1 In the hour of trial, Jesus, plead for me, Lest, by base denial, I depart from Thee; When Thou seest me waver, With a look recall, Nor, for fear or favor, Suffer me to fall. 2 With its witching pleasures Would this vain world charm, Or its sordid treasures Spread to work me harm; Bring to my remembrance Sad Gethsemane, Or in darker semblance, Cross-crowned Calvary. 3 Should Thy mercy send me Sorrow, toil, and woe; Or should pain attend me On my path below; Grant that I may never Fail Thy hand to see, Grant that I may ever Cast my care on Thee. 4 When my last hour cometh, Fraught with strife and pain, When my dust returneth To the dust again: On Thy truth relying Through that mortal strife, Jesus, take me, dying, To eternal life.

With Miriam We Will Dance

The dancers lend us grace To turn from seas of fear Towards the unknown wilderness - For God is there. 2 With Mary we will wait When even hope seems dead When others rush down roads they say We may not tread. And waiting, strong and still Through all our grief and pain We hear the whisper of God's will - We hear our name. 3 With Constance we will stand For what we know is right In answer to God's just demand And searching sight, Confronting each abuse That strangles liberty, God help us simply state the truth That sets us free. 4 Made while, the human race May answer to God's call In dance and silence, truth and grace, Embracing all. This journey never ends, God's promise calls us on, Until our sisters, brothers, friends May join the song. Scripture: Exodus 15:20-21 Languages: English Tune Title: GOD'S PROMISE
