Grant, Lord, whene’er Thy death we shew, We may Thy sacred Presence know! 3 In Him and in His love alone, That brought Him from the highest down, Is wisdom true for aye forth-shewn, Doth love receive its highest crown, Grant, Lord, we may that wisdom know, A love like thine to all to shew!

Come, Heavy-laden and Weary

Author: Fanny J. Crosby Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come, heavy-laden and weary, Burdened and sorrow-oppressed; Come to the dear, loving Saviour, And pillow thy head on His breast. O, how for thee He is yearning; Hark! how He pleads thy returning; Now while the life-lamp is burning, O come to the Saviour and rest. 2 Darkly the shadows are falling, Wildly the storm-billows roll; Fly as a dove to thy refuge, And thou shalt find peace to thy soul. Why wilt thou wander and grieve Him; He is thy Saviour, believe him; Open thy heart to receive Him; O come to thy Refuge and rest. 3 Come while His arms are extended, Come while He waits to forgive; Look to the cross where He suffered, O look unto Jesus and live. Come where no ill can betide thee; Come where the Spirit will guide thee; Come where His mercy will hide thee, Safe, safe in the haven of rest. Topics: Christ Burden-bearer Used With Tune: HAVEN

As “Together with Thee” Working

Author: Rev. W. J. Harsha Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: As, "together with Thee" working Lyrics: 1 As “together with Thee” working, Lord, we would Thy blessing have, Longing for Thy hand to stay us, For Thy cheer to make us brave; We would witness of Thy gospel, We would tell of Thy great might, Hoping to present our people, “Each one perfect in Thy sight.” 2 Grant us holy love and patience, Give us true humility, That of self we may be emptied And our hearts be full of Thee; Lead us, Lord, by Thy good Spirit, As we have been called to lead, Feed us first on heavenly manna, That our people we may feed. 3 Nobler than our duty growing, Sweeter still will worship be, Thou in all our life appearing, All our hidden life in Thee. Service rendered thus in weakness, Thou wilt here accept and own, And reward with endless glory When we see Thee on Thy throne. Topics: Church Used With Tune: CO-LABORERS

Where’er the rivers flow, Where’er the breezes blow, Let love and justice grow, And never fail. 3 In living unity May all her people be Kept evermore.
