"How Shall They Hear," Who Have Not Heard
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, b. 1926 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 6 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 6:5-8 Lyrics: 1 "How shall they hear,: who have not heard
News of a Lord who loved and came;
Nor known His reconciling word,
Nor learned to trust a Saviour's name?
2 "To all the world," to every place,
Neighbours and friends and far off lands,
Preach the good news of saving grace;
Go while the great commission stands.
3 "Whom shall I send?" Who hears the call,
Constant in prayer, through toil and pain,
Telling of One who died for all,
To bring a lost world home again?
4 "Lord, here am I:" Your fire impart
To this poor cold self-centered soul;
Touch but my lips, my hands, my heart,
And make a world for Christ my goal.
5 Spirit of love, within us move:
Spirit of truth, in pow'r come down!
So shall they hear and find and prove
Christ is their life, their joy, their crown.

spreads its vanguard on the way,
as the Light of light descendeth
from the realms of endless day,
that the powers of hell may vanish
as the darkness clears away.

cherubim, with sleepless eye,
veil their faces to the Presence,
as with ceaseless voice they cry,

alleluia, Lord most high!" Used With Tune: PICARDY Text Sources: Liturgy of St. James, 4th c.

How Clear Is Our Vocation, Lord
Author: Fred Pratt Green Meter: 8.6.8.8.6.6 Appears in 19 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 6:8 Lyrics: 1 How clear is our vocation, Lord,
When once we heed Your call:
To live according to Your word,
And daily learn, refreshed, restored,
That You are Lord of all
And will not let us fall.
2 But if, forgetful, we should find
Your yoke is hard to bear,
If worldly pressures fray the mind
And love itself cannot unwind
Its tangled skein of care:
Our inward life repair.
3 We mark Your saints, how they became
In hindrances more sure,
Whose joyful virtues put to shame
The casual way we wear Your name,
And by our faults obscure
Your power to cleanse and cure.
4 In what You give us, Lord, to do,
Together or alone,
In old routines or ventures new,
May we not cease to look to You--
The cross You hung upon--
All You endeavored done. Used With Tune: REPTON

Heilig ist Gott, der Herre Zebaoth!
Heilig ist Gott, der Herre Zebaoth!
