Psalm 41
Author: Mrs. A. L. Barbauld Hymnal: Laudes Domini #469 (1890) Topics: Activity; Activity First Line: Blest is the man whose softening heart Lyrics: 1 Blest is the man whose softening heart
Feels all another's pain;
To whom the supplicating eye
Was never raised in vain:
2 Whose breast expands with generous warmth
A stranger's woes to feel;
And bleeds in pity o'er the wound
He wants the power to heal.
3 He spreads his kind supporting arms
To every child of grief;
His secret bounty largely flows,
And brings unasked relief.
4 To gentle offices of love
His feet are never slow:
He views, through mercy's melting eye,
A brother in a foe.
5 Peace from the bosom of his God,
The Saviour's grace shall give;
And, when he kneels before the throne,
His trembling soul shall live. Languages: English

Psalm 137
Author: T. Dwight Hymnal: Laudes Domini #474 (1890) Topics: Activity; Activity First Line: I love thy kingdom, Lord! Lyrics: 1 I love thy kingdom, Lord!
The house of thine abode,
The church, our blest Redeemer saved
With his own precious blood.

Her walls before thee stand,
Dear as the apple of thine eye,
And graven on thy hand.
3 For her my tears shall fall,
For her my prayers ascend;
To her my cares and toils be given,
Till toils and cares shall end.
4 Beyond my highest joy,
I prize her heavenly ways,
Her sweet communion, solemn vows,
Her hymns of love and praise.
5 Sure as thy truth shall last,
To Zion shall be given
The brightest glories earth can yield,
And brighter bliss of heaven. Languages: English Tune Title: STATE STREET

"Harvest home"
Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Laudes Domini #475 (1890) Topics: Activity; Activity First Line: Sow in the morn thy seed Lyrics: 1 Sow in the morn thy seed,
At eve hold not thy hand;
To doubt and fear give thou no heed;
Broad-cast it o'er the land.
2 And duly shall appear
In verdure, beauty, strength,
The tender blade, the stalk, the ear,
And the full corn at length.
3 Thou canst not toil in vain;
Cold, heat, the moist and dry,
Shall foster and mature the grain
For garners in the sky.
4 Then, when the glorious end,
The day of God shall come,
The angel-reapers shall descend,
And heaven sing "Harvest home!" Languages: English

This was our Saviour's rule;

Of thee the power and will,
With fear and meekness, every task
Of duty to fulfill.

Adorn redeeming grace;
And sow abroad the precious seed
Of truth in every place:
4 That thus the wilderness
May blossom like the rose,
And trees spring up of righteousness,
Where'er life's river flows. Languages: English

As stewards true receive,
And gladly as thou blessest us,
To thee our first-fruits give.

To find a balm for woe,
To tend the lone and fatherless

To God the lost to bring,
To teach the way of life and peace
It is a Christ-like thing.
5 And we believe thy word,
Though dim our faith may be;
Whate'er for thine we do, O Lord,
We do it unto thee. Languages: English

Work, when the day grows brighter,
Work, in the glowing sun;
Work, for the night is coming,
When man's work is done.

Work through the sunny noon;
Fill brightest hours with labor,
Rest comes sure and soon.
Give every flying minute
Something to keep in store:
Work, for the night is coming,
When man works no more.
3 Work, for the night is coming,
Under the sunset skies;
While their bright tints are glowing,
Work, for daylight flies,
Work till the last beam fadeth,
Fadeth to shine no more;
Work, while the night is darkening,
When man's work is o'er. Languages: English Tune Title: WORK SONG

Serve and love thee best of all! Languages: English Tune Title: DORRNANCE

Calling the sheep who've gone astray,
Far from the Shepherd's fold away.

Bring them in from the fields of sin;
Bring them in,
Bring them in,
Bring the wanderers to Jesus.

Help Him the wand'ring ones to find?
Who'll bring them back into the fold,
Where they'll be sheltered from the cold? [Chorus]

Out on the mountain wild and high.

The Master praises, what are men?

For toil comes rest; for exile, home;
Soon shalt thou hear the Bridegroom's voice,
The midnight peal: "Behold, I come!" Languages: English Tune Title: ALL SAINTS
