Forth in Thy Name, O Lord, I go
Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: CHRC1920 #531 (1920) Tune Title: CANONBURY Lyrics: 1 Forth is Thy Name, O Lord, I go,
My daily labour to pursue;
Thee, only Thee resolved to know,
In all I think, or speak or do.
2 The task Thy wisdom hath assigned
O let me cheerfully fulfil;
In all my works Thy presence find,
And prove Thy good and perfect will.
3 Thee may I set at my right hand,
Whose eyes my inmost substance see;
And labour on at Thy command,
And offer all my works to Thee.
4 Give me to bear Thy easy yoke,
And every moment watch and pray;
And still to things eternal look,
And hasten to Thy glorious Day.
5 Fain would I still for Thee employ
Whate'er Thy bounteous grace hath given,
Would run my course with even joy,
And closely walk with Thee to heaven. Topics: General Home and Personal Use Languages: English
Forth in Thy Name, O Lord, I go
Jesus, hear and save
Author: R. Heber Hymnal: CHRC1920 #374 (1920) Tune Title: CAPETOWN First Line: Lord of mercy and of might Lyrics: 1 Lord of mercy and of might,
Of mankind the life and light,
Maker, Teacher infinite:
Jesus, hear and save.
2 Strong Creator, Saviour mild,
Humbled to a mortal child,
Captive, beaten, bound, reviled:
Jesus, hear and save.
3 Throned above celestial things,
Borne aloft on angels' wings,
Lord of lords, and King of kings:
Jesus, hear and save.
4 Soon to come to earth again,
Judge of angels and of men,
Hear us now, and hear us then:
Jesus, hear and save. Topics: General Languages: English

It came upon the midnight clear
Author: E. H. Sears Hymnal: CHRC1920 #56 (1920) Tune Title: CAROL Lyrics: 1 It came upon the midnight clear,
That glorious song of old,
From angels bending near the earth,
To touch their harps of gold:
"Peace on the earth, good-will to men
From heaven's all-gracious King;"
The world in solemn stillness lay
To hear the angels sing.
2 Still through the cloven skies they come,
With peaceful wings unfurled;
And still their heavenly music floats
O'er all the weary world:
Above its sad and lowly plains
They bend on hovering wing,
And ever o'er its Babel sounds
The blessed angels sing.
3 O ye, beneath life's crushing load,
Whose forms are bending low,
Who toil along the climbing way
With painful steps and slow!
Look now, for glad and golden hours
Come swiftly on the wing:
O rest beside the weary road,
And hear the angels sing.
4 For lo! the days are hastening on,
By prophets seen of old,
When with the ever-circling years,
Shall come the time foretold,
When the new heaven and earth shall own
The Prince of Peace their King,
And the whole world send back the song
Which now the angels sing.

A Saviour born today;
Bear the joyful tidings,
Oh, bear them far away.

Til earth's remotest bound
Shall bear the mighty chorus,
And echo back the sound.

Carol, sweetly today;
Bear the joyful tidings,

O'er the vales of Judah,
Awoke the heavenly song.

Good will, with peace and love,
Glory in the highest,
To God who reigns above. [Refrain]
3 Carol, sweetly carol,
The happy Christmas time;
Hark! the bells are pealing
Their merry, merry chime;

Ye shining ones above,
Sing in loudest numbers,
Oh, sing redeeming love. [Refrain] Topics: Youth and School Life Carols Languages: English

Day by day we magnify Thee
Author: J. Ellerton Hymnal: CHRC1920 #636 (1920) Tune Title: CARTER Lyrics: 1 Day by day we magnify Thee,
When our hymns in school we raise;
Daily work begun and ended,
With the daily voice of praise.
2 Day by day we magnify thee
When as each new day is born,
On our knees at home we bless Thee
For the mercies of the morn.
3 Day by day we magnify Thee
In our hymns before we sleep;
Angels hear them, watching by us,
Christ's dear lambs all night to keep.
4 Day by day we magnify Thee
Not in words of praise alone;
Truthful lips and meek obedience
Show Thy glory in Thine own.
5 Day by day we magnify Thee
When, for Jesus' sake, we try,
Every wrong to bear with patience,
Every sin to mortify.
6 Day by day we magnify Thee
Till our days on earth shall cease,
Till we rest from these our labours,
Waiting for Thy Day in peace!
7 Then, on that eternal morning,
With Thy great redeemed host,
May we fully magnify Thee
Father, Son and Holy Ghost! Topics: Youth and School Life Languages: English

Son of God, Eternal Saviour
Author: S. C. Lowry Hymnal: CHRC1920 #382 (1920) Tune Title: CENSORINUS Lyrics: 1 Son of God, Eternal Saviour,
Source of life and truth and grace,
Son of Man, whose birth incarnate
Hallows all our human race,
Thou, our Head, Who, thron'd in glory
For Thine own dost ever plead,
Fill us with Thy love and pity,
Heal our wrongs and help our need.
2 As Thou, Lord, hast lived for others
So may we for others live;
Freely have Thy gifts been granted,
Freely may Thy servants give.
Thine the gold and Thine the silver,
Thine the wealth of land and sea,
We but stewards of Thy bounty,
Held in solemn trust for Thee.
3 Come, O Christ, and reign among us,
King of love, and Prince of peace,
Hush the storm of strife and passion,
Bid its cruel discords cease;
By Thy patient years of toiling,
By Thy silent hours of pain,
Quench our fevered thirst of pleasure,
Shame our selfish greed of gain.
4 Son of God, Eternal Saviour,
Source of life and truth and grace,
Son of Man, whose birth incarnate
Hallows all our human race,
Thou Who prayedst, Thou Who willest
That Thy people should be one,
Grant, O grant our hope's fruition:
Here on earth Thy will be done. Topics: General Languages: English

A few more years shall roll
Author: H. Bonar Hymnal: CHRC1920 #210 (1920) Tune Title: CHALVEY Lyrics: 1 A few more years shall roll,
A few more seasons come,
And we shall be with those that rest
Asleep within the tomb;
Then, O my Lord, prepare
My soul for that great day;
O wash me in Thy precious blood,
And take my sins away.
2 A few more suns shall set
O'er these dark hills of time,
And we shall be where suns are not,
A far serener clime:
Then, O my Lord, prepare
My soul for tat blest day;
O wash me in Thy precious blood,
And take my sins away.
3 A few more storms shall beat
On this wild rocky shore,
And we shall be where tempests cease,
And surges swell no more:
Then, O my Lord, prepare
My soul for that calm day;
O wash me in Thy precious blood,
And take my sins away.
4 A few more struggles here,
A few more partings o'er,
A few more toils, a few more tears,
And we shall weep no more:
Then, O my Lord, prepare
My soul for that bright day;
O wash me in Thy precious blood,
And take my sins away.
5 'Tis but a little while
and He shall come again,
Who died that we might live,
That we with Him may reign:
Then, O my Lord, prepare
My soul for that glad day;
O wash me in Thy precious blood,
And take my sins away. Topics: Holy Days Old and New Year Languages: English
A few more years shall roll
Jesus, my strength, my hope
Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: CHRC1920 #326 (1920) Tune Title: CHALVEY Lyrics: 1 Jesus, my strength, my hope,
On Thee I cast my care;
With humble confidence look up,
And know Thou hear'st my prayer.
Give me on Thee to wait,
Till I can all things do;
On Thee, Almighty to create,
Almighty to renew.
2 Give me a true regard,
A single, steady aim,
Unmoved by threatening or reward,
To Thee and Thy great Name;
A jealous, just concern
For Thine immortal praise;
A pure desire that all may learn
And glorify Thy grace.
3 I rest upon Thy Word;
The promise is for me;
My succor and salvation, Lord,
Shall surely come from Thee:
But let me still abide,
Nor from my hope remove,
Till Thou my patient spirit guide
Into Thy perfect love.

Gracious Spirit, Holy Ghost
Author: C. Wordsworth Hymnal: CHRC1920 #79 (1920) Tune Title: CHARITY Lyrics: 1 Gracious Spirit, Holy Ghost,
Taught by Thee we covet most
Of Thy gifts at Pentecost,
Holy, heavenly Love.
2 Love is kind and suffers long
Love is meek and thinks no wrong,
Love than death itself more strong;
Therefore, give us Love.
3 Prophecy will fade away,
Melting in the light of day;
Love will ever with us stay;
Therefore, give us Love.
4 Faith will vanish into sight;
Hope be emptied in delight;
Love in heaven will shine more bright;
Therefore, give us Love.
5 Faith, and Hope and Love we see,
Joining hand in hand, agree,
But the greatest of the three,
And the best, is Love.
6 From the overshadowing
Of Thy gold and silver wing,
Shed on us, who to Thee sing,
Holy, heavenly Love. Topics: The Christian Year Sundays Before Lent Languages: English

Three in One, and One in Three
Author: G. Rorison Hymnal: CHRC1920 #140 (1920) Tune Title: CHARITY Lyrics: 1 Three in One, and One in Three,
Ruler of the earth and sea,
Hear us, while we lift to Thee
Holy chant and psalm.
2 Light of Lights! with morning shine,
Lift on us Thy light divine;
And let charity benign
Breathe on us her balm.
3 Light of lights! when falls the even,
Let it close on sin forgiven;
Fold us in the peace of heaven;
Shed a holy calm.
4 Three in One, and One in Three,
Dimly here we worship Thee;
With the saints hereafter we
Hope to bear the palm. Topics: Lent Trinity Languages: English
