201There is a land of pure delight
202For all the saints who from their labors rest
203For thy dear saint, O Lord
204Give me the wings of faith to rise
205Hail, glorious spirits, heirs of light
206Hark, the sound of holy voices
207How bright these glorious spirits shine
208Rejoice, ye dead, where’er your spirits dwell
209What are these that glow from afar
210Who are these like stars appearing
211Disposer supreme, and Judge of the earth
212Prophets, teachers, true recorders
213Servants of God, or sons
214Virtue supreme, thy mighty stream
216The Son of God goes forth to war
217Jesus calls us! o’er the tumult
218Who dreads, yet undismayed
219When Stephen, full of power and grace
220On the moorland of life God’s Shepherd is seen
221When Christ was born in Bethlehem
222To Damascus! Paul had shouted
223When Mary brought her treasure
224When Judas did his Lord reject
225We praise thy name, all holy Lord
227Lord God of Hosts, within whose hand
228A message came to a maiden young
229The winter’s sleep was long and deep
230True Son of Man, thou crown of human valor
231Let thine example, holy John
232Look up, by failure daunted
233Unto Mary, demon-haunted
234Lord, who shall sit beside thee
235O Master, it is good to be
236O saint of summer, what can we sing for you
237He sat to watch o’er customs paid
238Angels and ministers, spirits of grace
239Around the throne of God a band
240Service and strength, God’s angels and archangels
241Great is their joy who hide their own
242Christ is the King, O friends rejoice
243For the brave of every race
244Unknown and unrewarded
245Christ hath a garden walled around
246O faith of England, taught of old
247Sing alleluia forth in loyal praise
248The Church of God a kingdom is
249The Church’s one foundation
250In token that thou shalt not fear
251O Lord, thy people gathered here
252Father of all, to thee
253Just as I am, without one plea
254My God, accept my heart this day
255O Jesus, I have promised
256O thou who camest from above
257Take my life, and let it be
258Thine for ever! God of love
259According to thy gracious word
260Alleluia, sing to Jesus
261And now, O Father, mindful of the love
262As the disciples, when thy Son had left them
263Author of life divine
264Bread of heaven, on thee we feed
265Bread of the world in mercy broken
266Come, risen Lord, and deign to be our guest
267Deck thyself, my soul, with gladness
268Draw nigh and take the Body of the Lord
269Father, we greet thee, God of love, whose glory
270Here, O my Lord, I see thee face to face
271Holy Father, we show forth here
272I hunger and I thirst
273Let all mortal flesh keep silence
274Draw us in the Spirit’s tether
275O God, in whom we live and move
276O most merciful
277O Savior victim
278Strengthen for service, Lord, the hands
279Thee we adore, O hidden Savior, thee
280Therefore we, before him bending
281Wherefore, O Father, we thy humble servants (Dearmer)
282God, whose eternal mind
283O perfect Love, all human thought transcending
284O thou who gavest power to love
285From thee all skill and science flow
286Life and health are in the name
287Thine arm, O Lord, in days of old
288Christ who knows all his sheep
289For those we love within the veil
290How can I cease to pray for thee
291Joy and triumph everlasting
292Now thy earthly work is done
293O valiant hearts, who to your glory came
294They are all gone into the world of light
295They whose course on earth is o’er
296Where is death’s sting? We were not born to die
297Dismiss me not thy service, Lord
298Pour out thy Spirit from on high
299Far round the world thy children sing their song
300God is working his purpose out
301Lift up your heads, ye gates of brass
302Servants of the great adventure
