Go forth and tell! O church of God, awake!
Author: J. E. Seddon, 1915-1983 Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 16 hymnals Matching Instances: 6 Lyrics: 1 Go forth and tell! O church of God, awake!
God's saving news to all the nations take;
proclaim Christ Jesus, saviour, Lord, and king,
that all the world his worthy praise may sing.
2 Go forth and tell! God's love embraces all;
he will in grace respond to all who call:
how shall they call if they have never heard
the gracious invitation of his word?
3 Go forth and tell where still the darkness lies;
in wealth or want, the sinner surely dies;
give us, O Lord, concern of heart and mind,
a love like yours which cares for all mankind.
4 Go forth and tell! The doors are open wide:
share God's good gifts - let no one be denied;
live out your life as Christ your Lord shall choose,
your ransomed powers for his sole glory use.
5 Go forth and tell! O church of God, arise!
go in the strength which Christ your Lord supplies;
go till all nations his great name adore
and serve him, Lord and king, for evermore. Topics: God's Church Mission and Ministry; Pentecost 12 The Witnessing Community; Pentecost 5 The Church's Mission to All Used With Tune: YANWORTH
Go forth and tell! O church of God, awake!
'Lift up your hearts!' We lift them to the Lord
Author: H. M. Butler (1833-1918) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 69 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 'Lift up your hearts!' We lift them to the Lord,
and give to God our thanks with one accord;
it is our joy and duty, all our days
to lift our hearts in grateful thanks and praise.
2 Above the level of the former years,
the mire of sin, the slough of guilty fears,
the mist of doubt, the blight of love's decay —
O Lord of light, lift all our hearts today!
3 Above the swamps of subterfuge and shame,
the deeds, the thoughts, that honour may not name,
the halting tongue that dares not tell the whole —
O Lord of truth, lift every Christian soul!
4 Above the storms that darken human life -
pride, jealousy and envy, rage and strife;
where cold mistrust holds friend and friend apart —
O Lord of love, lift every Christian heart!
5 Then, with the trumpet call as Christ appears,
'Lift up your hearts!' rings, pealing in our ears:
still shall our hearts respond with full accord —
'We lift them up, we lift them to the Lord!' Topics: Christ the Friend of Sinners; God's Church Penitence and Prayer; Lent 1, The King and the Kingdom Temptation; Pentecost 6 Made New in Christ; The Fall Used With Tune: YANWORTH
