Where cross the crowded ways of life

Author: Dr. F. Mason North, 1850- Appears in 369 hymnals Topics: Charity, acts of 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 grace, 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 mountain side, 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.

Faith, Hope, and Charity

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 31 hymnals Topics: Charity; Faith, Hope and Charity Lyrics: Faith, Hope, and Charity,--these three, Yet is the greatest Charity! Father of lights, those gifts impart To mine and every human heart:-- Faith, that in prayer can never fail, Hope, that o'er doubting must prevail, And Charity, whose name above Is God's own name, for "God is love." The morning star is lost in light, Faith vanishes at perfect sight; The rainbow passes with the storm, And Hope with sorrow's fading form:-- But Charity, serene, sublime, Beyond the range of death and time, Like the blue sky's all-bounding space, Holds heaven and earth in its embrace. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 13:13

Take my heart, it is thine own! It shall be thy royal throne. Take my love; my Lord, I pour At thy feet its treasure-store; Take myself, and I will be, Ever, only, all, for thee!
