Work, for the Night is Coming
Author: Anna L. Coghill Appears in 1,205 hymnals Topics: Work and Missions Work Lyrics: 1 Work, for the night is coming;
Work thro' the morning hours;
Work while the dew is sparkling;
Work 'mid springing flowers;
Work while the day grows brighter,
Under the glowing sun;
Work, for the night is coming,
When man's work is done.
2 Work, for the night is coming,
Work thro' the sunny noon;
Fill brightest hours with labor,
Rest comes sure and soon:
Give ev'ry flying minute
Something to keep in store;
Work, for the night is coming,
When man works no more.
3 Work for the night is coming,
Under the sunset skies,
While their bright tints are glowing,
Work, for daylight flies;
Work, till the last beam fadeth,
Fadeth to shine no more;
Work, while the night is dark'ning,
When man's work is o'er. Used With Tune: WORK SONG

My Church! My Church!
Appears in 50 hymnals Topics: Spiritual Songs Work and Mission First Line: My church! my church! my dear old church Lyrics: 1 My church! my church! my dear old church!
My fathers’ and my own!
On Prophets and Apostles built,
And Christ the cornerstone!
All else beside, by storm or tide,
May yet be overthrown:
But not my church, my dear old church,
My fathers’ and my own!
2 My church! my church! my dear old church!
My glory and my pride!
Firm in the faith Immanuel taught,
She holds no faith beside.
Upon this rock, ‘gainst ev'ry shock,
Tho' gates of hell assail,
She stands secure, with promise sure,
“They never shall prevail.”
3 My church! my church! my dear old church!
I love her ancient name;
And God forbid, a child of hers
Should ever do her shame!
Her mother-care I'll ever share;
Her child I am alone,
Till He who gave me to her arms
Shall call me to His own.
4 My church! my church! my dear old church!
I've heard the tale of blood,
Of hearts that lov'd her to the death
The great, the wise, the good.
Our martyred sires defied the fires
For Christ the crucified;
The once deliver'd faith to keep,
They burned, they bled, they died.
5 My church! my church! I love my church!
For she exalts my Lord!
She speaks, she breathes, she teaches not,
But from His written Word;
And if her voice bids me rejoice,
From all my sins released,
'Tis thro' th'atoning sacrifice,
And Jesus is the Priest. Used With Tune: [My church! my church! my dear old church]
My Church! My Church!

We thank thee, Lord, Thy paths of service lead
Author: Rev. Calvin W. Laufer Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 32 hymnals Topics: Work Lyrics: 1 We thank Thee, Lord, Thy paths of service lead
To blazoned heights and down the slopes of need;
They reach Thy throne, encompass land and sea,
And he who journeys in them walks with Thee.
2 We've sought and found Thee in the secret place
And marveled at the radiance of Thy face;
But often in some far-off Galilee
Beheld Thee fairer yet while serving Thee.
3 We've felt Thy touch in sorrow's darkened way
Abound with love and solace for the day;
And, 'neath the burdens there, Thy sovereignty
Has held our hearts enthralled while serving Thee.
4 We've seen Thy glory like a mantle spread
O'er hill and dale in saffron flame and red;
But in the eyes of men, redeemed and free,
A splendor greater yet while serving Thee.
Amen. Used With Tune: FIELD
We thank thee, Lord, Thy paths of service lead

When the Harvest All is In
Author: E. R. Latta Appears in 10 hymnals Topics: Work First Line: Would you stand among the toilers Lyrics: 1 Would you stand among the toilers,
When the harvest all is in?
For the blessed Lord and Master,
You must here the work begin.
Refrain:
When the harvest all is in,
When the harvest all is in,
What a meeting of the reapers,
What a shouting of hosannas,
When the harvest all is in.
2 Would you join the song of gladness,
When the harvest all is in?
You must be a faithful gleaner
In the haunts of woe and sin. [Refrain]
3 Would you have some sheaves to offer,
When the harvest all is in?
From the husks of want and folly,
Strive the prodigals to win. [Refrain]
4 Would you have a crown eternal,
When the harvest all is in?
Seek to swell the heav’nly garner,
Ere it be too late to glean. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Would you stand among the toilers]
