Thus does the Master say To you—to me; Come, tell Him, one by one, All we have said and done, Whate’er it be. 2 In the great field of prayer, Have we been gleaning there— Abroad—at home— Blessings, for His dear sake, On all who strive to make His kingdom come? 3 From God’s own Scripture field Glean we some precious yield Of golden grain— Promise, and plan, and will For this great world, until Christ comes again? 4 Glean we from fields afar News of the holy war Of God’s dear Son, Of progress towards the goal, Of many a heathen soul For Jesus won? 5 Or in the fields around Have we no gleanings found Of gifts or gold, To God’s great treasure store, Brought in by rich or poor, By young or old? 6 And, gleanings richer still, Those who, the Father’s will Longing to do, Bring to Him heart and hand, Joining our Gleaner-Band— Co-workers true? 7 So grant us, Lord, we pray, To glean while it is day, That ours may be At last the blest reward— To bring our sheaves, dear Lord, With joy to Thee!

Softly sing the sweet word "Jesus"

Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Softly sing the sweet word “Jesus,” For ‘tis full of love and rest; And the very name of Jesus Draws poor sinners to His breast. 2 Softly sing that name so tender, Many a trembling one is here; Only tenderness can draw them, And they are so very dear. 3 O, poor sinner, speak to Jesus, In the silence of thy heart; Say, “For this Thy love so wondrous, Now with all my sin I’ll part.” 4 “I will trust Thee now, Lord Jesus, Keep Thee waiting now no more; Let Thee take away my sin-stains, Let Thee heal my every sore.” 5 Jesus answers, “I receive thee; Only look on Me and live; And I now will never leave thee, All thy sins I now forgive.” 6 Sing aloud, oh, happy sinner! “Jesus says I am forgiven, And that He will never leave me Till He brings me safe to heaven.” Used With Tune: MELBOURNE HALL Text Sources: From "Llanthony Abbey Hymns"

Think of Jesus, in the Morning

Author: Mrs. L. Shorey Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Think of Jesus, in the morning, In the blush of summer day; Or in winter’s chilly dawning, When the skies are dull and grey: Think of Him in cloud and sunshine! Think of Him in storm and rain! All He sends us has its mission, Nothing doth He send in vain. 2 Think of Jesus, of His beauty, In the crowded hours of day; In the busy hours of duty, When you cannot kneel and pray: Just the thought that Jesus loves you Will be cheering to your heart; And with whisper’d words “I love Thee,” Your will be the better part. 3 Think of Jesus, when in sorrow, Or if friendless, lone or sad; He will bring a bright tomorrow, He will cheer and make you glad: Casting all your care upon Him, This is what He bids you do; Gladly take His yoke upon you, You will find it easy too. 4 Courage, then, for Jesus loves you; Place your hand in His today; Courage! though He sometimes proves you By the trials of the way. All will tend to make you stronger, Make you firmer clasp His hand, Till at last you joyful enter, Welcomed, to the Glory-land. Used With Tune: CONVENTION
