Jesus Calls Us
Author: Cecil Frances Alexander Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 923 hymnals Topics: Calling and Response; Calling and Response First Line: Jesus calls us; o'er the tumult Lyrics: 1 Jesus calls us, o'er the tumult
of our life's wild restless sea,
day by day his clear voice sounding,
saying, "Christian, follow me."
2 Long ago apostles heard it
by the Galilean lake,
turned from home and toil and kindred,
leaving all for Jesus' sake.
3 Jesus calls us from the worship
of the vain world's golden store,
from each idol that would keep us,
saying, "Christian, love me more."
4 In our joys and in our sorrows,
days of toil and hours of ease,
still he calls, in cares and pleasures,
"Christian, love me more than these."
5 Jesus calls us: by your mercies,
Saviour, may we hear your call,
give our hearts to your obedience,
serve and love you best of all. Used With Tune: GALILEE

Dear Lord and Father of Mankind
Author: John Greenleaf Whittier, 1807-1892 Meter: 8.6.8.8.6 Appears in 500 hymnals Topics: Gospel Call and Response Lyrics: 1 Dear Lord and Father of mankind,
Forgive our foolish ways;
Reclothe us in our rightful mind,
In purer lives Thy service find,
In deeper rev'rence praise.
2 In simple trust like theirs who heard,
Beside the Syrian sea,
The gracious calling of the Lord,
Let us, like them, without a word,
Rise up and follow Thee.
3 O Sabbath rest by Galilee,
O calm of hills above,
Where Jesus knelt to share with Thee
The silence of eternity,
Interpreted by love!
4 Drop Thy still dews of quietness,
Till all our strivings cease;
Take from our souls the strain and stress,
And let our ordered lives confess
The beauty of Thy peace.
5 Breathe through the pulses of desire
Thy coolness and Thy balm;
Let sense be dumb, let flesh retire;
Speak through the earthquake, wind, and fire,
O still, small voice of calm.
Amen. Scripture: Luke 11:2-4 Used With Tune: REST

Not for crown and palm,
Enter we the army,
Raise the warrior psalm;

Savior, we are Thine!

Not with gold or gem,
But with Thine own life-blood,
For Thy diadem.
With Thy blessing filling
Each who comes to Thee,
Thou hast made us willing,
Thou hast made us free.
By Thy grand redemption,
By Thy grace divine,
We are on the Lord’s side,
Savior, we are Thine!
4 Fierce may be the conflict,
Strong may be the foe,
But the King’s own army
None can overthrow.
Round His standard ranging,
Vict’ry is secure;
For His truth unchanging
Makes the triumph sure.
Joyfully enlisting,
By Thy grace divine,
We are on the Lord’s side,
Savior, we are Thine! Scripture: Ephesians 6:13 Used With Tune: ARMAGEDDON

Where Cross the Crowded Ways of Life
Author: Frank Mason North Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 368 hymnals Topics: Call and Response Lyrics: 1 Where cross the crowded ways of life,
where sound the cries of race and clan,

on shadowed thresholds dark with fears,
from paths where hide the lures of greed,

still holds the freshness of thy grace;
yet long these multitudes to see
the sweet compassion of thy face.

make haste to heal these hearts of pain;

and follow where thy feet have trod;
till glorious from thy heaven above
shall come the city of our God.

Author: Ferdinand Q. Blanchard, 1876-1968 Meter: 7.6.8.6.7.6.8.6 Appears in 12 hymnals Topics: Gospel Call and Response Lyrics: 1 Before the cross of Jesus
Our lives are judged today;
The meaning of our eager strife
Is tested by His Way.
Across our restless living
The light streams from His cross,
And by its clear, revealing beams
We measure gain and loss.
2 The hopes that lead us onward,
The fears that hold us back,
Our will to dare great things for God,
The courage that we lack,
The faith we keep in goodness,
Our love, as low or pure -
On all, the judgment of the cross
Falls steady, clear, and sure.
3 Yet humbly, in our striving,
O God, we face its test.
We crave the pow'r to do Thy will
With Him who did it best.
On us let now the healing
Of His great Spirit fall,
And make us brave and full of joy
To answer to His call. Scripture: Revelation 14:4-6 Used With Tune: ST. CHRISTOPHER
