Bethune Appears in 56 hymnals First Line: Oh, for the happy hour Lyrics: 1 Oh, for the happy hour When God will hear our cry, And send, with a reviving power, His Spirit from on high. 2 While many crowd thy house, How few, around thy board, Meet to recount their solemn vows, And bless thee as their Lord! 3 Thou, thou alone canst give Thy gospel sure success; Canst bid the dying sinner live Anew in holiness. 4 Come, then, with power divine, Spirit of life and love! Thou shall this people all be thine, This church like that above. Topics: Church Missions of; Church Revival of; Church Work of Scripture: Lamentations 1:4 Used With Tune: ST. BRIDE

Out of the deep I call

Author: Henry Williams Baker Appears in 57 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Out of the deep I call To thee, O Lord, to Thee; Before Thy throne of grace I fall; Be merciful to me. 2 Out of the deep I cry, The woeful deep of sin, Of evil done in days gone by, Of evil now within. 3 Out of the deep of fear, And dread of coming shame, From morning watch till night is near I plead the precious Name. 4 Lord, there is mercy now, As ever was, with Thee; Before Thy throne of grace I bow; Be merciful to me. Amen. Topics: The Christian Life Repentance Used With Tune: ST. BRIDE

Lord of the Harvest, Hear

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 191 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Lord of the harvest, hear Thy needy servants’ cry; Answer our faith’s effectual prayer, And all our needs supply. 2. On Thee we humbly wait; Our wants are in Thy view, The harvest truly, Lord, is great; The laborers are few. 3. Convert, and send forth more Into Thy Church abroad, And let them speak Thy Word of power, As workers with their God. 4. Give the pure Gospel word, The word of general grace; Thee let them preach, the common Lord, Savior of human race. 5. O let them spread Thy name, Their mission fully prove, Thy universal grace proclaim, Thine all redeeming love! 6. On all mankind, forgiven, Empower them still to call, And tell each creature under Heaven That Thou hast died for all. Used With Tune: ST. BRIDE Text Sources: Hymns and Sacred Poems, 1742

Smith Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 29 hymnals First Line: Dark brood the heav’ns o’er thee Lyrics: 1 Dark brood the heav’ns o’er thee, Black clouds are gath’ring fast; In awful power thy God has come, Thy days of mirth are past. 2 Dark brood the heav’ns o’er thee, Red flames are bursting round; Bright lightnings flash, loud thunders roar, How shakes the trembling ground! 3 Dark brood the heav’ns o’er thee, Behold, the Judge appears; Unnumbered millions throng around, Raised from the dust of years. 4 Dark brood the heav’ns o’er thee, Soon thou wilt hear thy doom; Destruction opens wide for thee, Thy chosen, final home. 5 Yet wait, the vision stays; Why sinner, wilt thou die? Dark brood the heav’ns—but mercy waits; This hour to Jesus fly! Used With Tune: ST. BRIDE Text Sources: Sacred Lyrics by Nathan S. S. Beman (Boston: Perkins & Marvin, 1832)
