Love divine, all loves excelling
Author: Charles Wesley (1707-1788) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1,872 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 9:36 Lyrics: 1 Love divine, all loves excelling,
joy of heaven, to earth come down,
fix in us thy humble dwelling,
all thy faithful mercies crown.
Jesus, thou art all compassion,
pure, unbounded love thou art;
visit us with thy salvation,
enter every trembling heart.
2 Come, almighty to deliver;
let us all thy life receive;
suddenly return, and never,
never more thy temples leave.
Thee we would be always blessing,
serve thee as thy hosts above,
pray, and praise thee, without ceasing,
glory in thy perfect love.
3 Finish then thy new creation:
pure and spotless let us be;
let us see thy great salvation
perfectly restored in thee,
changed from glory into glory,
till in heaven we take our place,
till we cast our crowns before thee,
lost in wonder, love, and praise.

Hark, the Voice of Jesus Crying
Author: Daniel March, 1816-1909; Unknown Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 507 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 9:37-38 Lyrics: 1 Hark, the voice of Jesus crying,
"Who will go and work today?
Fields are white and harvests waiting--
Who will bear the sheaves away?"
Loud and long the Master calleth;
Rich reward He offers thee.
Who will answer, gladly saying,
"Here am I, send me, send me"?
2 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.
If you cannot rouse the wicked
With the judgment's dread alarms,
You can lead the little children
To the Savior's waiting arms.
3 If you cannot be a watchman,
Standing high on Zion's wall,
Pointing out the path to heaven,
Off'ring life and peace to all,
With your prayers and with your bounties
You can do what God commands;
You can be like faithful Aaron,
Holding up the prophet's hands.
4 Let none hear you idly saying,
"There is nothing I can do,"
While the multitudes are dying
And the Master calls for you.
Take the task He gives you gladly,
Let His work your pleasure be;
Answer quickly when He calleth,
"Here am I, send me, send me!"

Where Cross the Crowded Ways of Life
Author: Frank. M. North Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 372 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 9:36 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 your 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 greed,
we catch the vision of your tears.
3 The cup of water given for you
still holds the freshness of your grace;
yet long these multitudes to see
the true compassion of your face.
4 O Master, from the mountainside
make haste to heal these hearts of pain;
among these restless throngs abide,
and tread the city's streets again
5 till all the world shall learn your love
and follow where your feet have trod,
till glorious from your heaven above
shall come the city of our God.

Son of God, Eternal Savior
Author: Somerset Corry Lowry Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 63 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 10:8 Lyrics: 1 Son of God, eternal Savior,
source of life and truth and grace,
woman's Son, whose birth amongst us
hallows all our human race:
thou, our Head, who throned in glory
for thine own dost ever plead,
fill us with thy love and pity,
heal our wrongs, and help our need.
2 As thou, Lord, hast lived for others,
so may we for others live;
freely have thy gifts been granted,
freely may Thy servants give.
Thine the gold and thine the silver,
thine the wealth of land and sea,
We but stewards of Thy bounty
held in solemn trust for thee.
3 Come, O Christ, and reign above us,
King of Love, and Prince of Peace;
hush the storm of strife and passion,
bid its cruel discords cease;
by thy patient years of toiling,
by thy silent hours of pain,
quench our fever'd thirst of pleasure,
shame our selfish greed of gain.
4 Son of God, eternal Savior,
source of life and truth and grace,
woman's Son whose birth among us
hallows all our human race,
thou who prayedst, thou who willest,
that thy people should be one,
grant, O grant our hope’s fruition;
here on earth thy will be done.

Lord, You Give the Great Commission
Author: Jeffery Rowthorn, 1934- Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 43 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 10:8 Lyrics: 1 Lord, you give the great commission:
"Heal the sick and preach the word."
Lest the church neglect its mission
and the gospel go unheard,
help us witness to your purpose
with renewed integrity:
With the Spirit's gifts empower
us for the work of ministry.
2 Lord, you call us to your service:
"In my name baptize and teach."
That the world may trust your promise,
life abundant meant for each,
give us all new fervor, draw us
closer in community:
With the Spirit's gifts empower
us for the work of ministry.
3 Lord, you make the common holy:
"This my body, this my blood."
Let us all, for earth's true glory,
daily lift life heavenward,
asking that the world around us
share your children's liberty:
With the Spirit's gifts empower
us for the work of ministry.
4 Lord, you show us love's true measure:
"Father, what they do, forgive."
Yet we hoard as private treasure
all that you so freely give.
May your care and mercy lead us
to a just society:
With the Spirit's gifts empower
us for the work of ministry.
5 Lord, you bless with words assuring:
"I am with you to the end."
Faith and hope and love restoring,
may we serve as you intend,
and, amid the cares that claim us,
hold in mind eternity:
With the Spirit's gifts empower
us for the work of ministry.

Come, Ye Thankful People, Come
Author: Henry Alford Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 731 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 9:37-38 First Line: Come, ye thankful people come Lyrics: 1 Come, ye thankful people, come;
raise the song of harvest home.
All is safely gathered in,
ere the winter storms begin.
God, our Maker, doth provide
for our wants to be supplied.
Come to God's own temple, come;
raise the song of harvest home.
2 All the world is God's own field,
fruit in thankful praise to yield,
wheat and tares together sown,
unto joy or sorrow grown.
First the blade, and then the ear,
then the full corn shall appear.
Lord of harvest, grant that we
wholesome grain and pure may be.
3 For the Lord our God shall come,
and shall take the harvest home;
from each field shall in that day
all offenses purge away;
give the angels charge at last
in the fire the tares to cast,
but the fruitful ears to store
in God's garner evermore.
4 Even so, Lord, quickly come
to thy final harvest home.
Gather thou thy people in,
free from sorrow, free from sin,
there forever purified,
in thy presence to abide:
come, with all thine angels, come;
raise the glorious harvest home!

Ho! Reapers of Life's Harvest
Author: I. B. W. Appears in 121 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 9:37 First Line: Ho! reapers of life's harvest Lyrics: 1 Ho! reapers of life's harvest,
Why stand with rusted blade,
Until the night draws round thee,
And day begins to fade?
Why stand ye idle, waiting
For reapers more to come?
The golden morn is passing,
Why sit ye idle, dumb?
2 Thrust in your sharpened sickle,
And gather in the grain,
The night is fast approaching,
And soon will come again.
The Master calls for reapers,
And shall he call in vain?
Shall sheaves lie there ungathered,
And waste upon the plain?
3 Come down from hill and mountain
In morning's ruddy glow,
Nor wait until the dial
Points to the noon below;
And come with stronger sinew,
Nor faint in heat or cold,
And pause not till the evening
Draws round its wealth of gold.
4 Mount up the heights of wisdom,
And crush each error low;
Keep back no words of knowledge
That human hearts should know.
Be faithful to thy mission,
In service of thy Lord,
And then a golden chaplet
Shall be thy just reward. Used With Tune: [Ho! reapers of life's harvest]

Thou givest all.
5 Thou giv’st the Holy Spirit’s dower,
Spirit of Life and Love and Power,
And dost His sevenfold graces shower
Upon us all.

For means of grace and hopes of heaven,
Father, all praise to Thee be given,
Who givest all?

We have as treasure without end
Whatever, Lord, to Thee we lend,
Who givest all.

Our life, our gifts, our power to give.
Oh, may we ever with Thee live,
Who givest all!
