Young Men And Maidens
Author: Joseph Williams Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Young men and maidens raise Lyrics: 1 Young men and maidens raise,
On this triumphant morn,
A grateful song of heartfelt praise
To Christ at Bethle’m born;
Your voices loud and sweet,
Expressive of your heart,
May sing to Him in praises meet,
And sorrow all depart.
2 The Father, from His throne,
The world’s creator gave
His well beloved, His only Son,
A ruined world to save.
By faith from countries far,
The eastern magi came,
Led by a bright and dazzling star,
To worship at His fane.
3 The infant Christ they found,
And lovely was the sight,
Their peace and joy would now abound,
And praise be their delight;
With worship Him they greet,
Nor could they gifts withhold,
But humbly lay at Jesu’s feet
Myrrh, frankincense, and gold.
4 We offer Thee, good Lord,
Our humble sacrifice;
"A contrite heart," declares Thy word,
Thou never will despise.
O Lord, accept the gift
Of our unhallowed heart,
Our souls at last to Heaven lift,
To dwell where now Thou art. Used With Tune: FRANSTADT Text Sources: Christmas Minstrelsy by Joseph Williams and Henry Gauntlett (London and Mancehster: Novello & Bremner, 1864)

Your Mission
Author: Ellen M. H. Gates Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 120 hymnals First Line: If you cannot, on the ocean Lyrics: 1. If you cannot, on the ocean,
sail among the swiftest fleet,
Rocking on the highest billows,
laughing at the storms you meet,
You can stand among the sailors,
anchored yet within the bay,
You can lend a hand to help them,
as they launch their boats away.
2. If you are too weak to journey
up the mountain steep and high,
You can stand within the valley,
while the multitudes go by;
You can chant in happy measure,
as they slowly pass along;
Though they may forget the singer,
they will not forget the song.
3. If you have not gold and silver
ever ready to command;
If you cannot toward the needy
reach an ever open hand;
You can visit the afflicted,
o’er the erring you can weep;
You can be a true disciple,
sitting at the Savior’s feet.
4. If you cannot, in the conflict
prove, yourself a soldier true,
If, where fire and smoke are thickest,
there’s no work for you to do;
When the battlefield is silent,
you can go with careful tread,
You can bear away the wounded,
you can cover up the dead.
5. If you cannot, in the harvest,
gather up the richest sheaves,
Many a grain both ripe and golden
oft the careless reaper leaves;
Go and glean among the briars
growing rank against the wall,
For it may be that their shadow
hides the heaviest wheat of all.
6. Do not, then, stand idly waiting,
for some greater work to do;
Fortune is a lazy goddess,
she will never come to you.
Go and toil in any vineyard,
do not fear to do or dare,
If you want a field of labor,
you can find it anywhere. Used With Tune: BEECHER

Yo Escucho, Buen Jesús
Author: Lewis Hartsough; Juan B. Cabrera Hymnal: CYBER #13888 Lyrics: 1 Yo escucho, buen Jesús,
Tu dulce voz de amor,
Que desde el árbol de la cruz,
Invita al pecador.
Yo soy pecador,
Nada hay bueno en mí;
Ser objeto de Tu amor
Deseo, y vengo a Ti.
2 Tú ofreces el perdón
De toda iniquidad,
Si arrepentido el corazón
Implora Tu piedad.
Yo soy pecador;
Ten de mí piedad,
Quita todo mi dolor
Y borra mi maldad.
3 Tú ofreces aumentar
La fe del que creyó,
Y gracia sobre gracia dar
A quien en Ti esperó.
Creo en Ti, Señor,
Sólo espero en Ti:
Haz que Tu infinito amor
Habite siempre en mí. Languages: Spanish Tune Title: [Yo escucho, buen Jesús]

Young Men in Christ the Lord
Author: Robert Weidensall Hymnal: CYBER #7800 Lyrics: 1. Young men in Christ the Lord,
Own Him your Savior God,
His name adore;
For by His wondrous sacrifice,
He paid the great redemption price,
That all might have eternal life,
That come to God through Him.

Be mighty in His Word,
Its truths declare;
And seek the Holy Spirit’s power,
By faith and persevering prayer,
That ye may witness anywhere,
That sinful men are found.

Your grateful tribute bring,
Of love and praise;
United in His royal name,
With loyal hearts His Word proclaim,
Throughout the world to all young men,
Ye must be born again.

On Him all hopes depend,
Of true relief;
To every burdened soul you meet,
His gracious, loving words so sweet,
Come unto Me, with love repeat,
And I will give you rest.
5. Young men in Christ, arise,
The world before you lies,
Enslaved in sin;
Make haste to swell the mission band,
Prepared to go at His command,
To save lost men in every land,
At any sacrifice.
6. Young men in Christ the Son,
In Him we all are one;
For this He prayed;
Then let us join the heavenly throng,
To sound His praise in endless song,
For all we have and are belong
To Christ, our Lord divine. Languages: English Tune Title: [Young men in Christ the Lord]
