My drowsy powers, why sleep ye so?

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #199 (1899) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Diligence Lyrics: 1 My drowsy powers, why sleep ye so? Awake, my sluggish soul! Nothing has half thy work to do Yet nothing's half so dull. 2 We, for whose sake all nature stands, And stars their courses move; We, for whose guard the angel bands Come flying from above; 3 We, for whom God the Son came down And labored for our good, How careless to secure that crown He purchased with His blood. 4 Lord, shall we lie so sluggish still, And never act our parts? Come, holy Dove, from th'heavenly hill, Renew and warm our hearts. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: SPARTA

Work, for the night is coming!

Author: Mrs. A. L. Coghill, 1838- Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #391a (1917) Topics: Diligence Lyrics: 1 Work, for the night is coming! Work through the morning hours; Work while the dew is sparkling, Work 'mid springing flowers; Work when the day grows brighter, Work in the glowing sun; Work, for the night is coming, When man's work is done. 2 Work, for the night is coming! Work through the sunny noon; Fill brightest hours with labour, 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: BORROWDALE

A charge to keep I have

Thy servant, Lord, prepare A strict account to give. 4 Help me to watch and pray, And on Thyself rely; Assured, if I my trust betray, I shall forever die. Amen.

Awake my soul; stretch every nerve

Author: Philip Doddridge Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #535 (1899) Topics: Diligence Lyrics: 1 Awake, my soul; stretch every nerve, And press with vigor on; A heav'nly race demands thy zeal, And an immortal crown. 2 A cloud of witnesses around Hold thee in full survey; Forget the steps already trod, And onward urge thy way. 3 'Tis God's all-animating voice, That calls thee from on high; 'Tis His own hand presents the prize To thine uplifted eye;-- 4 That prize, with peerless glories bright, Which shall new lustre boast, When victors' wreaths and monarchs' gems Shall blend in common dust. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: CHRISTMAS
