The Loyal Call

Author: L. B. Kenyon Hymnal: GSE1902 #96 (1902) Tune Title: [A call to "loyal workers," is sound o'er the land] First Line: A call to "loyal workers," is sounding o'er the land Refrain First Line: Awake! "loyal worker," to the work while you may Lyrics: 1 A call to "loyal workers," is sounding o'er the land, Awake! arise! the time is short, the Lord he is at hand! Take up the cross of Jesus, on him fix heart and eyes, Then in his grace sufficient press forward to the prize. Chorus: Awake! "loyal worker," to the work while you may; In God's name to conquer! He's calling today. 2 The prize is life eternal, with Jesus crucified; 'Twas on the cross in agony for us he bled and died; Then, workers, look to Jesus, for help to overcome, And then in that fair morning he'll say to thee, "Well done." [Chorus] 3 Come, "workers," look around you, the Master calls today, Whate'er thy hand shall find to do, haste, now the call obey! Bear nobly all for Jesus, and in his strength abide, Then blessed be the efforts to win for him a bride. [Chorus] 4 O loyal be to Jesus, in word and tho't and deed; Then grand will the work go on, where "workers" sow the seed, Thro' Christ our blessed Master, we vict'ry shall attain, Then in that morn so soon to come, we'll reap the golden grain. [Chorus]

A Present Help

Miles Hymnal: GSE1902 #67 (1902) Tune Title: [A present help--When lowering clouds grow dark] First Line: A present help--When lowering clouds grow dark Lyrics: 1 A present help--When lowering clouds grow dark, Nor light shines thro' our onward way to mark. One vision of "beyond" then let us see. One vision of "beyond" then let us see, While we remember thou wilt ever be A present help, A present help. 2 A present help--Toss'd by each billowy wave, From rocks and shoals thou, Lord, alone canst save: Guide thou us safely on life's fitful sea. Guide thou us safely on life's fitful sea, Be thou our Pilot, may we see in thee A present help, A present help. 3 A present help--Tho' friends I love forsake, And from my side all earthly aid would take; In this dark hour, dear Lord, draw near to me, In this dark hour, dear Lord, draw near to me, And be to me as to thine arms I flee A present help, A present help. 4 A present help--In each sad, trying hour No need of ours can e'er exceed thy power; From tempter's snares, from dangers thou wilt free, From tempter's snares, from dangers thou wilt free, And prove till time ends in eternity, A present help, A present help.

[Chorus] 3 With numberless blessings each moment he crowns, And fill'd with his fulness divine, I sing in my rapture, O, glory to God, For such a Redeemer as mine.

Fast falls the eventide; The darkness deepens--Lord, with me abide! When other helpers fail and comforts flee, Help of the helpless, O, abide with me! 2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day; Earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away; Change and decay in all around I see; O thou, who changest not, abide with me! 3 I need thy presence ev'ry passing hour; What but thy grace can foil the tempter's power? Who, like thyself, my guide and stay can be? Thro' cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me! 4 I fear no foe, with thee at hand to bless; Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness: Death's sting where then? the grave's proud victory? When ever more thou shalt abide with me!

Christ's Coming

Chorus: He tarries yet, he tarries yet, With welcoming words on their lips they watched, But he tarries yet. 2 Every year across winter snows, With wistful eyes, Eager disciples have watch'd for him, To come from the skies, Every year under summer suns, They have sung his praise, And cried for him from their yearning hearts, But he still delays. [Chorus] 3 Sometimes we look at the fleeting clouds, And in the fancy trace The shining robes, and the feet of brass, And his glorious face; We hush our breath when the gleaming comes, And can almost hear The thrilling sound of his blessed words, But he is not near. [Chorus] 4 Yet courage, brothers, we have his word, And he will not fail; Let us be patient, and watch and wait, 'Till our pray'rs prevail; He surely will come as he said he would, In the light sublime, And we shall forget as we see his face, This waiting time. Chorus: This waiting time, this waiting time, And we shall forget as we see his face, This waiting time.

Chorus: Let your garment be spotless, Always pure and bright; Thro' the precious blood of Jesus Keep them ever clean and white. 2 Let no anger soil their beauty, Let no bitterness remain; O be sure no trace of envy Leaves upon your robes a stain. Let no love of worldly pleasure Cast unholy shadows there, Fully cleanse them from the mildews Of anxiety and care. [Chorus] 3 Let all pride of love and glory, Gold and fame be washed away; Trembling heart, your fears and doubtings 'Neath the pool of cleansing lay.

[Chorus] 4 O then ever keep your garments Whiter than the driven snow, Wear the royal robes of heaven While you tarry here below; That through yonder pearly portals Joyful entrance you may win, Clothes in raiment cleaned forever From the fingerprints of sin. [Chorus]

A "Convenient Season"

Hymnal: GSE1902 #80 (1902) Tune Title: ["At some convenient season," a young man said] First Line: "At some convenient season," a young man said Refrain First Line: A more convenient season will never come Lyrics: 1 "At some convenient season," a young man said, "I surely mean to seek the Lord; When I have gotten riches and gain'd a name, And time I better can afford." Chorus: A more convenient season will never come, There's danger in further delay; O, wait not for the morrow that may not come, Nor harden your hearts to-day. 2 "A few more days of pleasure," a maiden said, "And I will seek the 'living way;' But now, while youth and beauty, and health are mine, I'll taste the world and still be gay." [Chorus] 3 Unto a feast invited, a dying world A Saviour's love has long abused; And man has scorned his message and strangely said, "I pray thee," Lord, "have me excused." [Chorus] 4 But Jesus long has waited, is waiting still, Salvation full and free to give; O plead not vain excuses this solemn hour, But turn unto the Lord and live. [Chorus]
