Life is the time to serve the Lord
Author: Watts Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #829 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Proverbs 1:24-32 Lyrics: 1 Life is the time to serve the Lord,
The time t' insure the great reward;
And while the lamp holds out to burn,
The vilest sinner may return.
2 Life is the hour that God has given
To escape from hell and fly to heaven;
The day of grace; and mortals may
Secure the blessings of the day.
3 Then what my thoughts design to do,
My hands, with all your might pursue;
Since no device, nor work is found,
Nor faith, nor hope, beneath the ground.
4 There are no acts of pardon past
In the cold grave to which we haste;
But darkness, death, and long despair
Reign in eternal silence there. Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Warnings ; The Time to Serve the Lord
Life is the time to serve the Lord
Thou hidden love of God, whose height
Author: Gerhard Tersteegen, 1697-1769; John Wesley, 1703-1791 Hymnal: Common Praise #602 (2000) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Scripture: Proverbs 1:28 Lyrics: 1 Thou hidden love of God, whose height,
whose depth unfathomed, no-one knows,
I see from far thy beauteous light,
inly I sigh for thy repose;
my heart is pained, nor can it be
at rest, till it finds rest in thee.
2 'Tis mercy all, that thou hast brought
my mind to seek its peace in thee;
yet, while I seek but find thee not,
no peace my wandering soul shall see;
O when shall all my wanderings end,
and all my steps to thee-ward tend?
3 Is there a thing beneath the sun
that strives with thee my heart to share?
Ah, tear it thence, and reign alone,
the Lord of every motion there!
Then shall my heart from earth be free,
when it hath found repose in thee.
4 O Love, thy sovereign aid impart
to save me from low-thoughted care;
chase this self-will through all my heart,
through all its latent mazes there;
make me thy duteous child, that I
ceaseless may 'Abba, Father!' cry.
5 Each moment draw from earth away
my heart, that lowly waits thy call;
speak to my inmost soul, and say
'I am thy Love, thy God, thy all!'
To feel thy power, to hear thy voice,
to taste thy love, be all my choice. Languages: English Tune Title: VATER UNSER
Thou hidden love of God, whose height
"The voice of Jesus"
Author: Samuel J. Stone Hymnal: Laudes Domini #297 (1888) Scripture: Proverbs 1:24 First Line: Weary of earth, and laden with my sin Lyrics: 1 Weary of earth, and laden with my sin,
I look at heaven and long to enter in,
But there no evil thing may find a home:
And yet I hear a voice that bids me "Come."
2 So vile I am, how dare I hope to stand
In the pure glory of that holy land?
Before the whiteness of that throne appear?
Yet there are hands stretched out to draw me near.
3 The while I fain would tread the heavenly way,
Evil is ever with me day by day;
Yet on mine ears the gracious tidings fall,
"Repent, confess, thou shalt be loosed from all."
4 It is the voice of Jesus that I hear,
His are the hands stretched out to draw me near,
And his the blood that can for all atone,
And set me faultless there before the throne.
5 'Twas he who found me on the deathly wild,
And made me heir of heaven, the Father's child,
And day by day, whereby my soul may live,
Gives me his grace of pardon, and will give. Topics: Atonement Accepted; Backsliding Languages: English Tune Title: LANGRAN

'Gainst all disaster,
Let them in constancy
Follow the master.
There's no discouragement
Shall make them once relent
Their first avowed intent
To be true pilgrims.
2. Who so beset them round
With dismal stories,
Do but themselves confound;
Their strength the more is.
No foes shall stay their might;
Though they with giants fight,
They will make good their right
To be true pilgrims.
3. Since, Lord, you will defend
Us with your Spirit,
We know we at the end
Shall life inherit.
Then fancies flee away!
We'll fear not what they say,
We'll labor night and day
To be true pilgrims. Topics: Ordinary Time Week 19 Languages: English Tune Title: MONKS GATE
