Author: Mrs. S. M. I. Henry Appears in 11 hymnals First Line: I have toiled all night and for many a day Lyrics: 1 I have toiled all night and for many a day; They say there are fish in the sea, Yet I’ve caught nothing, my labor is vain, There cometh no increase to me. I will wash out my net, I will hang it away, And my fishing boat draw to the shore, It is useless to me, I will cast out my net In these barren sea-waters no more. 2 And he bent o’er the labor of washing his net, While Jesus walked down to the sea, And entered the ship at the mooring and said, “Thrust the boat out a little for me. Launch out into the deep, and let down the net,” And the fisherman answer’d, “In vain We have labored all night, and yet at thy word I will cast in my net once again.” 3 And how it was done the Lord only knows, But the net was so filled that it brake; For they launched out the ship and they cast in the net, At the Master’s word, just for his sake. And so, tho’ thy labor is vain until now, Lo, Jesus is saying to thee: “Launch out into the deep now and cast in the net, There are fish in the depths of the sea.” Used With Tune: [I have toiled all night and for many a day]

Silent Night

Author: Anon. Appears in 6 hymnals First Line: Silent night! shadowy night Lyrics: 1 Silent night! shadowy night! Purple dome, starry light! Pouring splendor of centuries down, Gold and purple, a glorious crown, Where the manger so rude and wild Cradles a child, a sleeping child. 2 Silent night! mystical night! Kings and seers sought thy light, Where the watch of the shepherds is kept, Heavenly hots thro’ the stillness have swept, Clear, proclaiming a Savior born! Singing the morn, the Christmas morn. 3 Holy night! heralding dawn! Far and near breaks the morn! Breaks the day when the Savior of men, Bringing pardon and healing again, “Holy harmless and undefiled,” Cometh a child, a little child. Used With Tune: [Silent night! shadowy night]
