How Clear Is Our Vocation, Lord

Author: Fred Pratt Green Meter: 8.6.7.7.6.6 Appears in 19 hymnals Scripture: 2 Timothy 1:9 Lyrics: 1 How clear is our vocation, Lord, when once we heed your call: to live according to your word, and daily learn, refreshed, restored that you are Lord of all, and will not let us fall. 2 But if, forgetful, we should find your yoke is hard to bear, if worldly pressures fray the mind, and love itself cannot unwind its tangled skein of care: our inward life repair. 3 We marvel how your saints become in hindrances more sure; whose joyful virtues put to shame the casual way we wear your name, and by our faults obscure your power to cleanse and cure. 4 In what you give us, Lord, to do, together or alone, in old routines or ventures new, may we not cease to look to you, the cross you hung upon-- all you endeavored done.

Man's reason cannot fathom The truth of God profound; Who trusts her subtle wisdom Relies on shifting ground. God's Word is all-sufficient, It makes divinely sure, And trusting in its wisdom, My faith shall rest secure. 2 Increase my faith, dear Savior, For Satan seeks by night and day To rob me of this treasure And take my hope of bliss away. But, Lord, with Thee beside me, I shall be undismayed; And led by Thy good Spirit, I shall be unafraid. Abide with me, O Savior, A firmer faith bestow. Then I shall bid defiance To ev'ry evil foe. 3 In faith, Lord, let me serve Thee; Though persecution, grief, and pain Should seek to overwhelm me, Let me a steadfast trust retain; And then at my departure Take Thou me home to Thee, And let me there inherit All Thou hast promised me. In life and death, Lord, keep me Until Thy heav'n I gain, Where I by Thy great mercy The end of faith attain. Amen.

Chorus: So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross, Till my trophies at last I lay down; I will cling to the old rugged cross, And exchange it some day for a crown. 2 O that old rugged cross, so despised by the world, Has a wondrous attraction for me; For the dear Lamb of God left His glory above To bear it to dark Calvary. (Chorus) 3 In that old rugged cross, stained with blood so divine, A wondrous beauty I see, For ’twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died, To pardon and sanctify me. (Chorus) 4 To the old rugged cross I will ever be true; Its shame and reproach gladly bear; Then He’ll call me some day to my home far away, Where His glory forever I’ll share.
