Author: Samuel F. Smith Hymnal: Laudes Domini #525 (1890) First Line: The morning light is breaking Lyrics: 1 The morning light is breaking; The darkness disappears! The sons of earth are waking To penitential tears; Each breeze that sweeps the ocean Brings tidings from afar, Of nations in commotion, Prepared for Zion's war. 2 See heathen nations bending Before the God we love, And thousand hearts ascending In gratitude above; While sinners, now confessing, The gospel call obey, And seek the Saviour's blessing A nation in a day. 3 Blest river of salvation! Pursue thine onward way; Flow thou to every nation, Nor in thy richness stay: Stay not till all the lowly Triumphant reach their home: Stay not till all the holy Proclaim "The Lord is come!"

Psalm 14

Author: Henry F. Lyte Hymnal: Laudes Domini #560 (1888) First Line: Oh, that the Lord's salvation Lyrics: 1 Oh, that the Lord's salvation Were out of Zion come, To heal his ancient nation, To lead his outcasts home! How long the holy city Shall heathen feet profane? Return, O Lord, in pity, Rebuild her walls again. 2 Let fall thy rod of terror, Thy saving grace impart; Roll back the vail of error, Release the fettered heart; Let Israel, home returning, Their lost Messiah see; Give oil of joy for mourning, And bind thy Church to thee.

Departing Missionaries

Author: James Edmeston Hymnal: Laudes Domini #561 (1888) First Line: Roll on, thou mighty ocean Lyrics: 1 Roll on, thou mighty ocean; And, as thy billows flow, Bear messengers of mercy To every land below. Arise, ye gales, and waft them Safe to the destined shore; That man may sit in darkness, And death's black shade no more. 2 O thou eternal Ruler, Who holdest in thine arm The tempests of the ocean, Protect them from all harm! Thy presence, Lord, be with them, Wherever they may be; Though far from us, who love them, Still let them be with thee. Topics: Church Missions of; Church Work of Languages: English Tune Title: ORIENS
