Speed thy Servants

Author: Thomas Kelly Hymnal: NCH1929 #177 (1929) Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7.4.7 First Line: Speed Thy servants, Savior, speed them Lyrics: 1. Speed Thy servants, Savior, speed them, Thou are Lord of winds and waves: They were bound, but Thou hast freed them; Now they go to free the slaves: Be Thou with them, 'Tis Thine arm alone that saves, Be Thou with them, 'Tis Thine arm alone that saves. 2. Friends and home and all forsaking, Lord, they go at Thy command; As their stay Thy promise taking, While they traverse sea and land: O be with them, Lead them safely by the hand, O be with them, Lead them safely by the hand. 3. Where no fruit appears to cheer them, And they seem to toil in vain, Then in mercy, Lord, draw near them, Then their sinking hopes sustain: Thus supported, Let their zeal revive again, Thus supported, Let their zeal revive again. 4. In the midst of opposition, Let them trust, O Lord, in Thee; When success attains their mission, Let Thy servants humbler be: Never leave them, Till Thy face in heav'n they see: Never leave them, Till Thy face in heav'n they see. 5. There to reap, in joy forever, Fruit that grows from seed here sown; There to be with Him, who never Ceases to preserve his own, And with gladness Give the praise to Him alone, And with gladness Give the praise to Him alone.

Where Cross the Crowded Ways

Author: Rev. F. M. North Hymnal: NCH1929 #179 (1929) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Where cross the crowded ways of life 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 Thy voice, O Son of Man. 2. In haunted of wretchedness and need, On shadowed thresholds dark with fears, From paths where hide the lures of greed, We catch the vision of Thy tears. 3. From tender childhood's helplessness, From woman's grief, man's burdened toil, From famished souls from sorrow's stress, Thy heart has never known recoil. 4. O Master, from the mountain side, Make haste to heal these hearts of pain; Among these restless throngs abide, O tread the city's streets again; 5. Till sons of men shall learn Thy love, And follow where Thy feet have trod; Till glorious from Thy heav'n above, Shall come the City of our God.

There Were Ninety and Nine

Author: Elizabeth C. Clephane Hymnal: NCH1929 #181 (1929) Meter: Irregular First Line: There were ninety and nine that safely lay Lyrics: 1. There were ninety and nine that safely lay In the shelter of the fold, But one was out on the hills away, Far off from the gates of gold-- Away on the mountains wild and bare, Away from the tender Shepherd's care, Away from the tender Shepherd's care. 2. "Lord, Thou hast here Thy ninety and nine; Are they not enough for Thee?" But the Shepherd made answer: "This of mine Has wandered away from me. And altho' the road be rough and steep, I go to the desert to find my sheep, I go to the desert to find my sheep." 3. But none of the ransomed ever knew How deep were the waters crossed; Nor how dark was the night that the Lord passed thro'; Ere He found His sheep that was lost. Out in the desert He heard its cry-- Sick and helpless, and ready to die; Sick and helpless, and ready to die. 4. "Lord, whence are those blood-drops all the way That mark out the mountain's track?" "They were shed for one who had gone astray Ere the Shepherd could bring him back." "Lord, whence are Thy hands so rent and torn?" "They're pierced tonight by many a thorn; They're pierced tonight by many a thorn. 5. But all thro' the mountain, thunder-riv'n, And up from the rocky steep, There arose a glad cry to the gate of heav'n, "Rejoice! I have found my sheep! And the angels echoed around the throne, "Rejoice, for the Lord brings back His own! Rejoice, for the Lord brings back His own."

Jesus, Master, I am Thine: Keep me faithful, keep me near; Let Thy presence in me shine, All my homeward way to cheer, Jesus, at Thy feet I fall, O be Thou my All in all. 3. Jesus, Master, whom I serve, Tho' so feebly and so ill, Strengthen hand and heart and nerve All Thy bidding to fulfill; Open Thou mine eyes to see All the work Thou hast for me. 4. Jesus, Master, wilt Thou use One who owes Thee more than all? As Thou wilt! I would not choose; Only let me hear Thy call. Jesus, let me always be In Thy service glad and free.

While the Sun Is Shining

Author: T. A. Stowell Hymnal: NCH1929 #183 (1929) Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Lyrics: 1. While the sun is shining Brightly in the sky, Ere the rays declining Tell that night is high; Ere the shadows falling, Lengthen on our way, Hark! a voice is calling, "Work while it is day." 2. Work, but not in sadness, For your Lord above; He will make it gladness With his smile of love. When that Lord returning Knocketh at the gate, Let your light be burning, Be like men who wait. 3. Happy then the meeting, When you see His face; Welcome then the greeting From the throne of grace, "Good and faithful servant, Of my Father blest, Now your work is ended, Enter into rest."

Author: Washington Gladden Hymnal: NCH1929 #185 (1929) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. O Master, let me walk with Thee In lowly paths of service free; Tell me Thy secret; help me bear The strain of toil, the fret of care. 2. Help me the slow of heart to move By some clear, winning word of love; Teach me the wayward feet to stay, And guide them in the homeward way. 2. Teach me Thy patience; still with Thee In close, dearer company, In work that keeps faith sweet and strong, In trust that triumphs over wrong. 4. In hope that sends a shining ray Far down the future's broad'ning way; In peace that only Thou canst give,-- With Thee, O Master, let me live.

Nevin Hymnal: NCH1929 #186 (1929) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: "Always with us, always with us:" Lyrics: 1."Always with us, always with us:" Words of cheer and words of love; Thus the risen Savior whispers, From His dwelling place above. With us, when we toil in sadness, Sowing much and reaping none; Telling us that in the future Golden harvests shall be won. 2. With us, when the storm is sweeping O'er our pathway dark and drear; Waking hope within our bosoms, Stilling ev'ry anxious fear: With us, in the lonely valley, When we cross the chilling stream; Lighting up the steps to glory, With salvation's radiant beam.
