Author: Frank Mason North Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 377 hymnals Topics: Kingdom of God on Earth, The City, The Lyrics: 1 Where cross the crowded ways of life, Where sound the cries of race and clan, Above the noise of selfish strife, We hear Thy voice, O Son of Man. 2 In haunts of wretchedness and need, On shadowed thresholds dark with fears, From paths where hide the lures of greed, We catch the vision of Thy tears. 3 From tender childhood's helplessness, From woman's grief, man's burdened toil, From famished souls, from sorrow's stress, Thy heart has never known recoil. 4 The cup of water given for Thee Still holds the freshness of Thy grace; Yet long these multitudes to see The sweet compassion of Thy face. 5 O Master, from the mountainside, Make haste to heal these hearts of pain; Among these restless throngs abide, O tread the city's streets again, 6 Till sons of men shall learn Thy love, And follow where Thy feet have trod; Till glorious from Thy heaven above Shall come the City of our God. Amen. Scripture: Matthew 9:36 Used With Tune: GERMANY

Refrain: Publish glad tidings, tidings of peace, Tidings of Jesus, redemption and release. 2 Behold how many thousands still are lying Bound in the darksome prison house of sin, With none to tell them of the Saviour's dying, Or of the life He died for them to win. [Refrain] 3 Proclaim to every people, tongue, and nation That God, in whom they live and move, is Love: Tell how He stooped to save His lost creation, And died on earth that man might live above. [Refrain] 4 Give of thy sons to bear the message glorious; Give of thy wealth to speed them on their way; Pour out thy soul for them in prayer victorious; And all thou spendest Jesus will repay. [Refrain] 5 He comes again: O Zion, ere thou meet Him, Make known to every heart His saving grace; Let none whom He hath ransomed fail to greet Him, Through thy neglect, unfit to see His face. [Refrain] Amen. Scripture: Ezekiel 18:23 Used With Tune: TIDINGS
