Christ for the World We Sing
Author: Samuel Wolcott Appears in 412 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Christ for the world we sing,
The world to Christ we bring, with loving zeal,
The poor and them that mourn, the faint and overborne,
Sin sick and sorrow worn, whom Christ doth heal.
2. Christ for the world we sing,
The world to Christ we bring, with fervent prayer;
The wayward and the lost, by restless passions tossed,
Redeemed at countless cost, from dark despair.
3. Christ for the world we sing,
The world to Christ we bring, with one accord;
With us the work to share, with us reproach to dare,
With us the cross to bear, for Christ our Lord.
4. Christ for the world we sing,
The world to Christ we bring, with joyful song;
The newborn souls, whose days, reclaimed from error’s ways,
Inspired with hope and praise, to Christ belong. Used With Tune: ITALIAN HYMN

Shed on us from above
Thine own bright ray.

Shade mid the noontide glow,
Peace when deep griefs o'erflow,
Cheer us this hour.

Dwell in each breast.
We know no dawn but Thine;
Send forth Thy beams divine
On our dark souls to shine
And make us blest.

Extinguish passion's fires,
Heal ev'ry wound.
Our stubborn spirits bend,
Our icy coldness end,
Our devious steps attend
While heav'nward bound.

Let all who Christ confess
His praise employ.

Victorious death accord
And, with our glorious Lord,
Eternal joy. Topics: Invocation Used With Tune: ITALIAN HYMN

In this glad hour.

Thru devious ways -

We come Thy Name to sing,
Hither Thy children bring,
Tributes of praise.

The all-subduing Word,
Healer of strife;
Thou didst Thyself abase,
That from sin's deep disgrace
Thou mightest save our race
And give us life.

Our shepherd and our guide,
Our staff and song:
Jesus, Thou Christ of God,
By Thy enduring word,
Lead us where Thou hast trod,
Make our faith strong.
