May all at last in heav'n appear.

Praise Him above, ye heav'nly host:
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

To the Harvest-Field
I cannot tell
Author: William Young Fullerton, 1857-1932 Meter: 11.10.11.10.11.10.11.12 Appears in 33 hymnals Scripture: Mark 4:26-29 First Line: I cannot tell how he whom angels worship Lyrics: 1 I cannot tell how he whom angels worship
should stoop to love the peoples of the earth,
or why as shepherd he should seek the wand'rer
with his mysterious promise of new birth.
But this I know, that he was born of Mary
when Bethl'em's manger was his only home,
and that he lived at Nazareth and laboured,
and so the Saviour, Saviour of the world, is come.
2 I cannot tell how silently he suffered,
as with his peace he graced this place of tears,
or how his heart upon the cross was broken,
the crown of pain to three and thirty years.
But this I know, he heals the broken-hearted,
and stays our sin, and calms our lurking fear,
and lifts the burden from the heavy laden,
for still the Saviour, Saviour of the world is here.
3 I cannot tell how he will win the nations,
how he will claim his earthly heritage,
how satisfy the needs and aspirations
of east and west, of sinner and of sage.
But this I know, all flesh shall see his glory,
and he shall reap the harvest he has sown,
and some glad day his sun will shine in splendour
when he the Saviour, Saviour of the world, is known.
4 I cannot tell how all the lands shall worship,
when, at his bidding, ev'ry storm is stilled,
or who can say how great the jubilation
when ev'ry heart with perfect love is filled.
But this I know, the skies will thrill with rapture,
and myriad, myriad human voices sing,
and earth to heav'n and heav'n to earth, will answer:
'At last the Saviour, Saviour of the world, is King!'

God of the Fertile Fields
Author: Georgia Harkness Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Appears in 15 hymnals Scripture: Mark 4:26-29 Lyrics: 1 God of the fertile fields,
shaper of earth that yields
our daily bread:
forth from your bounteous hand
come gifts your love has planned,
that all in every land
be clothed and fed.
2 We would be stewards true,
holding in trust from you
all that you give;
help us in love to share,
teach us like you to care
for people everywhere,
that all may live.
3 As grows the hidden seed
to fruit that serves our need,
so your reign grows.
Let all our toil be used,
no gift of yours abused,
no humble task refused
your love bestows.
4 God of the countryside,
dear to the Christ who died
to make us one:
we pledge our lives anew
in faithful love to you.
Guide all we say and do.
Your will be done.

Christ's Church Shall Glory in His Power
Author: Christopher Idle, b. 1938 Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.6.7 Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Mark 4 First Line: Christ's church shall glory in his pow'r Lyrics: 1 Christ’s church shall glory in his pow'r
And grow to his perfection;
He is our rock, our mighty tow'r
Our life, our resurrection:
So by his skillful hand
The church of Christ shall stand;
The master-builder's plan
He works, as he began,
And soon will crown with splendor.
2 Christ's people serve his wayward world
To whom he seems a stranger;
He knows its welcome from of old,
He shares our joy, our danger:
So strong, and yet so weak,
The church of Christ shall speak;
His cross our greatest need,
His word the vital seed
That brings a fruitful harvest.
3 Christ's living lamp shall brightly burn,
And to our earthly city
Forgotten beauty shall return,
And purity and pity:
To give the oppressed their right
The church of Christ shall fight;
And though the years seem long
He is our strength and song,
And he is our salvation.
