Jesus Calls Us; O'er the Tumult
Author: Cecil F. Alexander Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 919 hymnals Scripture: Mark 1:16-20 Lyrics:
1 Jesus calls us; o'er the tumult
of our life's wild, restless sea,
day by day his voice is sounding,
saying, "Christian, follow me."
2 Long ago apostles heard it
by the Galilean lake,
turned from home and work and family,
leaving all for his dear sake.
3 In our joys and in our sorrows,
days of work and hours of ease,
still he calls, in cares and pleasures,
"Christian, love me more than these."
4 Jesus calls us; by your mercies,
Savior, may we hear your call,
give our hearts to your obedience,
serve and love you best of all.

Dear Lord and Father of Mankind
Author: John Greenleaf Whittier Meter: 8.6.8.8.6 Appears in 499 hymnals Scripture: Mark 1:16-17 Lyrics: 1 Dear Lord and Father of mankind,
Forgive our foolish ways;
Reclothe us in our rightful mind,
In purer lives Thy service find,
In deeper reverence, praise.
2 In simple trust like theirs who heard,
Beside the Syrian sea,
The gracious calling of the Lord,
Let us, like them, without a word,
Rise up and follow Thee.
3 O Sabbath rest by Galilee,
O calm of hills above,
Where Jesus knelt to share with Thee
The silence of eternity,
Interpreted by love!
4 Drop Thy still dews of quietness,
Till all our strivings cease;
Take from our souls the strain and stress,
And let our ordered lives confess
The beauty of Thy peace.
5 Breathe through the heats of our desire
Thy coolness and Thy balm;
Let sense be dumb, let flesh retire;
Speak through the earthquake, wind, and fire,
O still, small voice of calm!

Lord, Who throughout These Forty Days
Author: Claudia F. Hernaman, 1838-1898 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 86 hymnals Scripture: Mark 1:12-15 Lyrics: 1 Lord, who throughout these forty days,
For us did fast and pray,
Teach us to overcome our sins,
And close by you to stay.
2 As you with Satan did contend,
And did the vict'ry win,
O give us strength in you to fight,
In you to conquer sin.
3 As you did hunger and did thirst,
So teach us, gracious Lord,
To die to self, and so to live
By your most holy word.
4 And through these days of penitence,
And through your Passiontide,
For evermore, in life and death,
O Lord! with us abide.
5 Abide with us, that through this life
Of doubts and hope and pain,
An Easter of unending joy
We may at last attain!

O Jesus, I have promised
Author: John Ernest Bode (1816-1874) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 617 hymnals Scripture: Mark 1:14-20 Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, I have promised
to serve you to the end;
be now and always near me,
my master and my friend:
I shall not fear the battle
if you are by my side,
not wander from the pathway
if you will be my guide.
2 Oh, let me feel you near me:
the world is ever near;
I see the sights that dazzle,
the tempting sounds I hear;
my foes are ever near me,
around me, and within;
but, Jesus, draw still nearer,
and shield my soul from sin.
3 Oh, let me hear you speaking
in accents clear and still,
above the storms of passion,
the murmurs of self-will;
Oh, speak to reassure me,
to hasten or control;
O speak, and make me listen,
true guardian of my soul.
4 O Jesus, you have promised
to all who follow you,
that where you are in glory
your servant shall be too;
and, Jesus, I have promised
to serve you to the end:
now give me grace to follow,
my master and my friend. Topics: The Holy Spirit The Church Celebrates - Confirmation; Conflict; Discipleship Used With Tune: THORNBURY
