Do the Duty Nearest Lying

Author: Alice Jean Cleator Hymnal: Sunday School Voices #136 (1910) Topics: Duty Refrain First Line: Work, O work! the Master needs you Lyrics: 1 Do the duty nearest lying, It will make the next more clear; Linger not for doubt or sighing, Labor on with heart of cheer. Tho’ the task to thee seem lowly, Do it bravely; it is thine; Ev’ry deed for God is pure and holy, Love will make them all divine. Refrain: Work, O work! the Master needs you, In this wondrous harvest field; Work, O work! the Master calls that You may your best service yield. 2 O the task of God’s assigning Is the one for thee alone! Waste no time in weak repining, Labor on till day is done. Does the tempter whisper to thee, “Hasten from the path of right?” Listen not, press bravely onward, ever Tow’rd the land of love and light. [Refrain] 3 Is the pathway lone and dreary, Keep the closer to thy Guide, Close to him who bore the thorn-crown, And the wound-prints in his side. If the toil seem like a burden, Jesus will that burden bear; Tell to him thine ev’ry anxious trial, Bring to him thy weight of care. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Do the duty nearest lying]

Liberality; or, the duty and pleasures of benevolence

Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CCXLVI (1792) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Benevolence a duty and pleasure First Line: O what stupendous mercy shines Lyrics: 1 O what stupendous mercy shines Around the majesty of heaven! Rebels he deigns to call his sons, Their souls renew'd their sins forgiven. 2 Go, imitate the grace divine, The grace that blazes like a sun; Hold forth your fair, tho' feeble light, Thro' all your lives let mercy run: 3 Upon your bounty's willing wings Swift let the great salvation fly; The hungry feed, the naked clothe, To pain and sickness help apply. 4 Pity the weeping widow's woe, And be her counsellor and stay; Adopt the fatherless, and smooth The useful, happy life his way. 5 Let age with want and weakness bow'd, Your bowels of compassion move; Let e'en your enemies be blest, Their hatred recompens'd with love. 6 When all is done, renounce your deeds, Renounce self-righteousness with scorn; Thus will you glorify your God, And thus the christian name adorn.

Our Duty to God

Author: Dr. Gibbons Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #XLVII (1792) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Duty to God First Line: That God, who made the worlds on high Lyrics: 1 That God, who made the worlds on high, And air, and earth, and sea, Own as thy God, and to his name In homage bow the knee. 2 Let not a shape which hands have wrought Of wood, or clay, or stone, Be deem'd thy God, nor think him like Aught thou hast seen or known. 3 Take not in vain the name of God: Nor must thou ever dare, To make thy falshood pass for truth, By his dread name to swear. 4 That day on which he bids thee rest From toil, to pray, and praise, That day, keep holy to the Lord, And consecrate it rays. 5 O may that God, who gave these laws, Write them on every heart, That all may feel their living power, Nor from his paths depart!

It may not be our lot to wield

Author: J. G. Whittier, 1807-1892 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #363 (1917) Topics: Daily Duty; Daily Duty; Duty; Faithfulness To Daily Duty Lyrics: 1 It may not be our lot to wield The sickle in the ripened field; Nor ours to hear, on summer eves, The reaper's song among the sheaves. 2 Yet where our duty's task is wrought In unison with God's great thought, The near and future blend in one, And whatsoe'er is willed, is done. 3 And ours the grateful service whence Comes, day by day, the recompense; The hope, the trust, the purpose stayed, The fountain, and the noonday shade. 4 And were this life the utmost span, The only end and aim of man, Better the toil of fields like these Than waking dream and slothful ease. 5 But life, though falling like our grain, Like that revives and springs again; And, early called, how blest are they Who wait in heaven their harvest day!
