The Faith that saves the Soul

Author: William Luff Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 The faith that saves the soul Is faith that works by love; Let faith and love thy work control, And thy salvation prove. 2 Thy Saviour work’d for thee, With often weary brow; His willing, constant worker be, For Him to labour now. 3 The labourers are few Who toil amid the heat, Unto their toiling Master true, And learning at His feet. 4 Work with a grateful heart: Work while the millions play: Ere the bright hours of light depart, And night shall follow day. 5 Work!—work for Him is blest; Work as a favoured son; Work till He gives thee heavenly rest, And His own sweet “Well done!” Used With Tune: INVERA

Lord, write Thy Holy Word upon my mind, That in Thy truth my feet the path may find. 3 Go Thou before me, lest my footsteps stray, Light up the track of Thy most holy way; Speak Thou to me in accents clear and strong, Lest Satan’s wiles should lure my soul along. 4 Be Thou my reward, keep me from the foe; Lead me in paths wherein the righteous go: And where Thou goest will I go with Thee— Only, O Lord, hide not Thy face from me! 5 Lo! marshalled is the foe and fierce the strife; O Heavenly Captain, lead me on to life— The life that has no ending where Thou art! And write my name, O Lord, upon Thine heart! Used With Tune: KADESH

See the Fields to harvest whitening

Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 See the fields to harvest whitening, Thro’ the quickly passing day! See the grain neglected falling, Trodden on the dusty way! None to reap the wasting treasure, Stretching far like billowy sea, Murm’ring ever, “Must we perish? Must we sill ungarner’d be? Lord of Harvest, pity, pardon All our past neglect and sin: Plead we now, send forth more labourers, Let the sheaves be gathered in. 2 Like Thy Church of old, so would we Meekly kneel around Thy feet, Each one asking, “Call’st Thou me, Lord? Am I for this service meet?” All in holy stillness waiting For the Spirit’s guiding voice, “Separate whereto I send them, These, the servants of My choice.” Lord of Harvest, pity, pardon All our past neglect and sin: Now we would obey Thy bidding, Let the sheaves be gathered in. 3 Each in his allotted portion, Let us work, not counting cost; To make known thro’ ev’ry nation Him who came to save the lost: Till the bell rings out at even, Telling resting-time is come; And we gather round the Master In the joy of Harvest-home. Lord of Harvest, pity, pardon All our past neglect and sin: Haste we now to do Thy bidding— All the sheaves to gather in. Used With Tune: HARVEST HOME

Stuart Holden Appears in 1 hymnal Refrain First Line: Father, bless and save them Lyrics: 1 Lord, we come before Thee, In our Saviour’s name, For Thy chosen people Blessing now to claim: Send the “showers of blessing” On each Jewish head, To the Cross of Jesus Be each lost one led. Chorus: Father, bless and save them, Israel’s sons, we pray; Turn to joy their bondage, Turn their night to day. 2 Satan doth enslave them,— Blinds them to Thy word; Oh! do Thou convict them; By Thy Spirit’s Sword; Send Thy promised Spirit, Break their chains of sin, Bid them trust in Jesus, Call each lost one in. [Chorus] 3 O’er the wide world scattered, Yet they still are Thine, May Thy glorious Day-star In their darkness shine: Though in every country Far from Thee they roam, Saviour, seek and find them, Bring each lost one home. [Chorus]

Out in the Dew and Cold He stands

Author: Rev. Dr. H. Bonar Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Out in the dew and cold He stands, The drops of night are on His hair; In patient love He waits without: And who, who keeps Him there? 2 All heaven is in His earnest voice, All glory on His brow so fair: In sorr’wing love He stands without: And who, who keeps Him there? 3 “Open to Me, beloved one! With Me thy heart and dwelling share!” But still at the barr’d door He stands: And who, who keeps Him there? 4 He hath no place to lay His head, No one a home or roof will spare; No one respondeth when He knocks: And who, who keeps Him there? 5 The winds are out, the storm is up, Freezing and sharp the midnight air; He does not leave, but knocketh on: And who, who keeps Him there? 6 Our ear is sealed, our heart is cold, And we refuse both hearth and fare: He speaks, we hear not: ah, ‘tis we— Yes, we who keep Him there! 7 But now no more we shut Thee out, O Thou, the fairest of the fair! Come in, Thou blessèd One; we will No longer keep Thee there. Used With Tune: [Out in the dew and cold He stands]
