To Worship, Work and Witness

Author: Henry Lyle Lambdin Appears in 8 hymnals Matching Instances: 8 First Line: To worship, work, and witness Lyrics: 1 To worship, work, and witness, The Good News spread abroad, We magnify Thy mission, Church of the living God; The Father's new creation Thru Jesus Christ His Son, The Spirit has empowered To do as Christ has done. 2 Be thine thy Master's purpose To seek and save the lost, To ransom those in bondage, To dare not count the cost; To love and lift the lowly, To heed the pris'ner's groan, To take up others' burdens And bear them as thine own. 3 Be thou to Christ His body, Hold fast to Christ thy Head; Be thou Christ's open letter By all men to be read; Be thou Christ's holy temple, Himself the cornerstone; Be thou Christ's living altar Whereon His love is shown. 4 Head of the Church, inspire us To have in us Thy mind, To humbly wait Thy guidance, Thy joy in serving find. Bestow the Spirit's grace-gifts To serve the common good, While helping each the other To love thy brotherhood. Amen. Topics: Church; Commitment; Missionary; Service; Trinity Used With Tune: WEBB
