Benevolent Efforts

Author: Mrs. P. A. Hanaford Hymnal: Laudes Domini #463 (1890) Topics: Activity and Zeal; Activity; Activity First Line: Cast thy bread upon the waters Lyrics: 1 Cast thy bread upon the waters, Thinking not 'tis thrown away; God himself saith, thou shalt gather It again some future day. 2 Cast thy bread upon the waters; Wildly though the billows roll, They but aid thee as thou toilest Truth to spread from pole to pole. 3 As the seed, by billows floated, To some distant island lone, So to human souls benighted, That thou flingest may be borne. 4 Cast thy bread upon the waters; Why wilt thou still doubting stand? Bounteous shall God send the harvest, If thou sow'st with liberal hand. Languages: English Tune Title: SOLNEY

See the rising grain appear; Look again! the fields are whitening, Give us thine own charity. Languages: English Tune Title: STOCKWELL

Zeal

Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: Laudes Domini #470 (1890) Topics: Activity and Zeal; Activity; Activity First Line: Go, labor on, while it is day Lyrics: 1 Oh, labor on, while it is day; The world's dark night is hastening on; Speed, speed thy work, cast sloth away! It is not thus that souls are won. 2 Men die in darkness at your side, Without a hope to cheer the tomb: Take up the torch and wave it wide The torch that lights time's thickest gloom. 3 Toil on, faint not; keep watch and pray! Be wise the erring soul to win; Go forth into the world's highway; Compel the wanderer to come in. 4 Go, labor on: your hands are weak; Your knees are faint, your soul cast down; Yet falter not, the prize you seek Is near, a kingdom and a crown!

Liberality

Author: Thomas Gibbons Hymnal: Laudes Domini #473 (1890) Topics: Activity and Zeal; Activity; Activity First Line: When Jesus dwelt in mortal clay Lyrics: 1 When Jesus dwelt in mortal clay, What were his works from day to day, But miracles of power and grace, That spread salvation through our race? 2 Teach us, O Lord, to keep in view Thy pattern, and thy steps pursue; Let alms bestowed, let kindness done, Be witnessed by each rolling sun. 3 That man may last, but never lives, Who much receives, but nothing gives; Whom none can love, whom none can thank, Creation's blot, creation's blank! 4 But he who marks, from day to day, In generous acts his radiant way, Treads the same path his Saviour trod, The path to glory and to God.

Chorus: Up! then, trusty hearts and true, Tho' the day comes, night comes too; Oh, the good we all may do, While the days are going by. 2 There's no time for idle scorning While the days are going by; Let our face be like the morning, While the days are going by. Oh! the world is full of sighs, Full of sad and weeping eyes; Help your fallen brothers rise, While the days are going by. [Chorus] 3 All the loving links that bind us While the days are going by, One by one we leave behind us While the days are going by; But the seeds of good we sow, Both in shade and shrine will grow, And will keep our hearts aglow While the days are going by.

"The Laborers are few"

Author: D. March Hymnal: Laudes Domini #483 (1890) Topics: Activity and Zeal; Activity; Activity First Line: Hark! the voice of Jesus calling Lyrics: 1 Hark! the voice of Jesus calling, Who will go and work to-day? Fields are white, the harvest waiting, Who will bear the sheaves away? Loud and long the Master calleth, Rich reward he offers free; Who will answer, gladly saying, "Here am I, O Lord, send me." 2 If you cannot cross the ocean And the heathen lands explore, You can find the heathen nearer, You can help them at your door; If you cannot speak like angels, If you cannot preach like Paul, You can tell the love of Jesus, You can say he died for all. 3 While the souls of men are dying, And the Master calls for you, Let none hear you idly saying, "There is nothing I can do!" Gladly take the task he gives you, Let his work your pleasure be; Answer quickly when he calleth, "Here am I, O Lord, send me." Languages: English Tune Title: MISSION SONG

"What thy hand findeth"

Author: E. H. Gates Hymnal: Laudes Domini #484 (1890) Topics: Activity and Zeal; Activity; Activity First Line: If you cannot on the ocean Lyrics: 1 If you cannot on the ocean Sail among the swiftest fleet, Rocking on the highest billows, Laughing at the storms you meet, You can stand among the sailors, Anchored yet within the bay, You can lend a hand to help them, As they launch their boat away. 2 If you are too weak to journey Up the mountain steep and high, You can stand within the valley, While the multitude go by; You can chant in happy measure, As they slowly pass along; Though they may forget the singer, They will not forget the song. 3 If you have not gold and silver Ever ready to command; If you cannot toward the needy Reach an ever open hand, You can visit the afflicted, O'er the erring you can weep You can be a true disciple Sitting at the Saviour's feet. 4 If you cannot in the harvest Garner up the richest sheaf, Many a grain both ripe and golden Will the careless reapers leave; Go and glean among the briers, Growing rank against the wall, For it may be that the shadow Hides the heaviest wheat of all.

Work, for the Day is Coming

Author: Basil Manly Hymnal: The Glad Refrain for the Sunday School #6 (1886) Topics: Activity; Activity Lyrics: 1 Work, for the day is coming, Day in the Word foretold, When, 'mid the scenes triumphant, Longed for by saints of old, He who on earth a stranger Traversed its paths of pain, Jesus, the Prince, the Saviour, Comes evermore to reign. 2 Work, for the day is coming; Darkness will soon be gone; Then o'er the night of weeping Day without end shall dawn; What now we sow in sadness, Then we shall reap in joy; Hope will be changed to gladness, Praise be our best employ. 3 Work, for the Lord is coming; Children of light are we; From Jesus’ bright appearing Powers of darkness flee. Now morning light is breaking, Day dawns in every land, Night shades beset no longer, For Christ is now at hand. Languages: English Tune Title: [Work, for the day is coming]
