Go, Labor On: Spend, and Be Spent
Author: Horatius Bonar Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 439 hymnals Topics: Life in Christ Discipleship and Service First Line: Go, labor on: spend and be spent Lyrics: 1 Go, labor on: spend, and be spent,
Thy joy to do the Father's will:
It is the way the Master went;
Should not the servant tread it still?
2 Go, labor on while it is day:
The world's dark night is hastening on;
Speed, speed thy work, cast sloth away;
It is not thus that souls are won.
3 Toil on, faint not, keep watch and pray,
Be wise the erring soul to win;
Go forth into the world's highway,
Compel the wanderer to come in.
Amen. Scripture: Matthew 21:28 Used With Tune: PENTECOST

"Forward!" be our watchword
Author: Rev. Henry Alford Appears in 342 hymnals Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Discipleship and Service; Discipleship and Service Lyrics: 1 "Forward!" be our watchword,
Steps and voices joined;
Seek the things before us,
Not a look behind:
Burns the fiery pillar
At our army's head;
Who shall dream of shrinking,
By our Captain led?
Forward through the desert,
Through the toil and fight;
Jordan flows before us,
Zion beams with light!
2 Far o'er yon horizon
Rise the city towers,
Where our God abideth;
That fair home is ours:
Flash the streets with jasper,
Shine the gates with gold;
Flows the gladdening river,
Shedding joys untold.
Thither, onward thither,
In the Spirit's might;
Pilgrims to your country,
Forward into light!
3 To th' eternal Father
Loudest anthems raise,
To the Son, and Spirit,
Echo songs of praise,
To the Lord of glory,
Blessed Three in One,
Be by men and angels
Endless honor done.
Weak are earthly praises,
Dull the songs of night:
Forward into triumph,
Forward into light!
Amen. Used With Tune: FORWARD

Make me a captive, Lord
Author: Rev. George Matheson (1842-1906) Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Appears in 120 hymnals Topics: Discipleship and Service Lyrics: 1 Make me a captive, Lord,
And then I shall be free;
Force me to render up my sword,
And I shall conqueror be.
I sink in life's alarms
When by myself I stand;
Imprison me within Thine arms,
And strong shall be my hand.
2 My heart is weak and poor
Until it master find;
It has no spring of action sure—
It varies with the wind.
It cannot freely move
Till Thou hast wrought its chain;
Enslave it with Thy matchless love,
And deathless it shall reign.
3 My power is faint and low
Till I have learned to serve;
It wants the needed fire to glow,
It wants the breeze to nerve;
It cannot drive the world
Until itself be driven;
Its flag can only be unfurled
When Thou shalt breathe from heaven.
4 My will is not my own
Till Thou hast made it Thine;
If it would reach a monarch's throne,
It must its crown resign;
It only stands unbent
Amid the clashing strife,
When on Thy bosom it has leant
And found in Thee its life.
Amen. Used With Tune: LEOMINSTER

Maintain the glory of His cross,
I And honor all His laws.
2 Jesus, my Lord! I know His name;
l His name is all my boast;
Nor will He put my soul to shame,
Nor let my hope be lost.
3 I know that safe with Him remains,
Protected by His power,
What I've committed to His trust
Till the decisive hour.
4 Then will He own His servant's name
Before His Father's face,
And in the new Jerusalem
Appoint my soul a place.
Amen. Scripture: Romans 1:16 Used With Tune: BELMONT Text Sources: As in Scottish Paraphrases, 1781
