Author: Rev. Matthias Loy, D. D. Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #329b (1908) Lyrics: 1 Launch out into the deep,
And brave the foaming sea,
Fold not thine arms to slothful sleep
When duty calls to thee.
2 Let down thy net again,
Still hopeful of success,
Though long thy toil has seemed in vain,
The Lord will richly bless.
3 Do not faint-hearted say,
Thine is a dreary lot:
Let life seem gloomy as it may,
His goodness falters not.
4 In Jesus put thy trust,
And thou canst never fail;
His mighty Word supports the just,
And that must e'er prevail.
5 Thrust out, then, from the land,
Let down thy net again;
The work performed at God's command
Can never be in vain. Topics: The Catechism Daily Duty; Fifth Sunday after Trinity Languages: English Tune Title: VIGIL
