Be strong!

Author: Rev. Maltbie D. Babcock Hymnal: HPAG1933 #488 (1950) Meter: 2.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 Be strong! We are not here to play, to dream, to drift; We have hard work to do and loads to lift; Shun not the struggle, face it, ’tis God’s gift. 2 Be strong! Say not the days are evil— who’s to blame? And fold the hands and acquiesce— O shame! Stand up, speak out, and bravely, in God’s Name. 3 Be strong! It matters not how deep intrenched the wrong, How hard the battle goes, the day, how long; Faint not, fight on! Tomorrow comes the song. Amen.

Come, labor on

Author: Jane Laurie Borthwick Hymnal: HPAG1933 #366 (1950) Meter: 4.10.10.10.4 Lyrics: 1 Come, labor on. Who dares stand idle on the harvest plain While all around him waves the golden grain? And to each servant does the Master say, "Go work today." 2 Come, labor on. Claim the high calling angels cannot share— To young and old the gospel gladness bear; Redeem the time; its hours too swiftly fly. The night draws nigh. 3 Come, labor on. Away with gloomy doubts and faithless fear! No arm so weak but may do service here: By feeblest agents may our God fulfill His righteous will. 4 Come, labor on. No time for rest, till glows the western sky, Till the long shadows o'er our pathway lie, And a glad sound comes with the setting sun, "Well done, well done!" Amen.
