Heralds of Christ, who bear the King's command

Author: Laura S. Copenhaver Hymnal: HPAG1933 #379 (1950) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 Heralds of Christ, who bear the King's commands, Immortal tidings in your mortal hands, Pass on and carry swift the news ye bring: Make straight, make straight the highway of the King. 2 Through desert ways, dark fen, and deep morass, Through jungles, sluggish seas, and mountain pass, Build ye the road, and falter not, nor stay; Prepare across the earth the King's highway. 3 Where once the crooked trail in darkness wound Let marching feet and joyous song resound, Where burn the funeral pyres, and censers swing, Make straight, make straight the highway of the King. 4 Lord, give us faith and strength the road to build, To see the promise of the day fulfilled, When war shall be no more and strife shall cease Upon the highway of the Prince of Peace. Amen. Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Missions; Friendship, World; Missions; Peace, International Tune Title: NATIONAL HYMN

Light of light that shineth

Godfrey Thring Hymnal: HPAG1933 #380 (1950) Meter: 6.5.6.5 D with refrain First Line: From the eastern mountains Lyrics: 1 From the eastern mountains Pressing on they come, Wise Men in their wisdom, To His humble home; Stirred by deep devotion, Hasting from afar, Ever journeying onward, Guided by a star. Refrain: Light of light that shineth Ere the worlds began, Draw Thou near, and lighten Every heart of man. 2 Gather in the people, All who've gone astray, Throw Thy radiance o'er them, Guide them on their way: Those who never knew Thee, Those who've wandered far, Lead them by the brightness Of Thy guiding Star. [Refrain] 3 Onward through the darkness Of the lonely night, Shining still before them With Thy kindly light, Guide them all, Thy children, Homeward from afar, Young and old together, By Thy guiding Star.

Ye Christian heralds, go proclaim

Author: Rev. Bourne H. Draper Hymnal: HPAG1933 #381 (1950) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Ye Christian heralds, go proclaim Salvation through Emmanuel's Name; To distant climes the tidings bear, And plant the Rose of Sharon there. 2 God shield you with a wall of fire, With flaming zeal your hearts inspire, Bid raging winds their fury cease, And hush the tempests into peace. 3 And when our labors all are o'er, Then we shall meet to part no more; Meet with the ransomed throng to fall, And crown our Jesus Lord of all.

Publish glad tidings, tidings of peace

Author: Mary Ann Thomson Hymnal: HPAG1933 #382 (1950) Meter: 11.10.11.10.9.11 First Line: O Zion, haste, thy mission high fulfilling Lyrics: 1 O Zion, haste, thy mission high fulfilling, To tell to all the world that God is Light, That He who made all nations is not willing One soul should perish, lost in shades of night. Refrain: Publish glad tidings, tidings of peace, Tidings of Jesus, redemption and release. 2 Behold how many thousands still are lying Bound in the darksome prison house of sin, With none to tell them of the Saviour's dying, Or of the life He died for them to win. [Refrain] 3 Proclaim to every people, tongue, and nation That God, in whom they live and move, is Love: Tell how He stooped to save His lost creation, And died on earth that man might live above. [Refrain] 4 He comes again: O Zion, ere thou meet Him, Make known to every heart His saving grace; Let none whom He hath ransomed fail to greet Him, Through thy neglect, unfit to see His face.

Fling out the banner! let it float

Author: Bishop George W. Doane Hymnal: HPAG1933 #384 (1950) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Fling out the banner! let it float Skyward and seaward, high and wide; The sun that lights its shining folds, The Cross on which the Saviour died. 2 Fling out the banner! angels bend In anxious silence o'er the sign, And vainly seek to comprehend The wonder of the Love divine. 3 Fling out the banner! distant lands Shall see from far the glorious sight, And nations, crowding to be born, Baptize their spirits in its light. 4 Fling out the banner! sin-sick souls That sink and perish in the strife, Shall touch in faith its radiant hem And spring immortal into life. 5 Fling out the banner! let it float Skyward and seaward, high and wide, Our glory, only in the cross; Our only hope, the Crucified! 6 Fling out the banner! wide and high, Seaward and skyward, let it shine: Nor skill, nor might, nor merit ours; We conquer only in that sign. Amen. Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Missions; Missions; Processionals Tune Title: WALTHAM

From Greenland's icy mountains

Author: Bishop Reginald Heber Hymnal: HPAG1933 #385 (1950) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 From Greenland's icy mountains, From India's coral strand, Where Afric's sunny fountains Roll down their golden sand, From many an ancient river, From many a palmy plain, They call us to deliver Their land from error's chain. 2 Can we, whose souls are lighted With wisdom from on high, Can we to men benighted The lamp of life deny? Salvation! O salvation! The joyful sound proclaim Till each remotest nation Has learned Messiah's Name. 3 Waft, waft, ye winds, His story, And you, ye waters, roll, Till like a sea of glory It spreads from pole to pole; Till o'er our ransomed nature The Lamb for sinners slain, Redeemer, King, Creator, In bliss returns to reign. Amen. Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Missions; Missions Tune Title: MISSIONARY HYMN

O Son of God, our Captain of salvation

Author: Rev. John Ellerton (1826-1893) Hymnal: HPAG1933 #386 (1950) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Lyrics: 1 O Son of God, our Captain of salvation, Thyself by suffering schooled to human grief, We bless Thee for Thy sons of consolation, Who follow in the steps of Thee their Chief; 2 Those whom Thy Spirit's dread vocation severs To lead the vanguard of Thy conquering host; Whose toilsome years are spent in brave endeavors To bear Thy saving Name from coast to coast; 3 And all true helpers, patient, kind, and skillful, Who shed Thy light across our darkened earth, Counsel the doubting, and restrain the willful, Soothe the sick bed, and share the children's mirth. 4 Thus, Lord, Thy blessed saints in memory keeping, Still be Thy Church's watchword, "Comfort ye," Till in our Father's house shall end all weeping, And every want be satisfied in Thee.

O Christ, forget not them who stand

Author: Margaret E. Sangster (1838-1912) Hymnal: HPAG1933 #387 (1950) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O Christ, forget not them who stand Thy vanguard in the distant land. In flood, in flame, in dark, in dread, Sustain, we pray, each lifted head. 2 Thine is the work they strive to do, Their foes so many, they so few, Be with Thine own, Thy loved, who stand, Christ’s vanguard, in the storm-swept land.
