Hark! The King Of Heaven Is Calling
Author: J. H. Kuhlman Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Hark! the King of heav'n is calling Lyrics: 1 Hark! the King of heav'n is calling
Laborers to do His work;
Go, saith He, into My vineyard,
Go at once, and do not shirk!
In the morning hours He seeks you,
When the dew is on the grass;
Serve Him then with young endeavor,
Ere the flush of youth shall pass.
2 Thro' the forenoon of their lifetime,
Ev'ry day and ev'ry year,
In His Church the Lord is calling,
Calling those that will not hear.
Noon and afternoon are passing,
And the shadows grow apace,
While so many still are standing
Idle in the market place.
3 Swift the twilight is advancing,
Bringing the eleventh hour;
One more call, O men and women,
Serve Him with your waning pow'r!
Then at last the quiet evening
And the sunset in the West,
When the Master of the vineyard
Calls the workers home to rest. Topics: The Church Year Septuagesima; Processionals and Recessionals General Used With Tune: DEARHURST

As Those Who Seek The Break Of Day
Author: William C. Dix Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 As those who seek the break of day
Full early in the morning,
The women came where Jesus lay,
Who late had borne the scorning.
Sweet ointment in their hands they brought,
And ere the sun had risen,
The Sun of Righteousness they sought,
Now set within death’s prison.
2 And thus they cried—the body here,
Let us give new anointing ;
The quick’ning flesh, the body dear,
Which by divine appointing
From this dark sepulcher shall rise,
And Adam’s race deliver,
And lift the fallen to the skies
To reign in bliss for ever.
3 And like the Magi, hasten we
To Him with love adoring;
Sweet spices, too, our gifts shall be,
And we must weep, imploring
That He, in swaddling clothes no more,
But in fine linen lying,
Would grant the fallen when life is o’er,
The gift of life undying. Used With Tune: ALBACETE Text Sources: Tr.: Lyra Messianica by Orby Shipley (London: Longman, Green, Longman, roberts & Green, 1864)

Brother, Thou Art Gone Before Us
Author: Henry H. Milman Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 57 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Brother, thou art gone before us;
Where thy saintly soul is flown,
Tears are wiped away for ever,
And all sorrow is unknown;
From the burden of the body,
From all care and fear released,
Where the wicked cease from troubling,
And the weary are at rest.
2 O’er the toilsome way thou’st traveled
And endured the heavy load;
Christ hath brought thy footsteps languid
Safely to His blest abode.
Thou art resting now, like Lazarus,
On thy heav’nly Father’s breast,
Where the wicked cease from troubling,
And the weary are at rest.
3 Sin no more can taint thy spirit,
Nor can doubt thy faith assail;
Thou thy welcome has receivèd,
Now thy strength shall never fail;
And thou’rt sure to meet the holy,
Whom on earth thou loved’st best,
Where the wicked cease from troubling,
And the weary are at rest.
4 To thy grave we sadly bear thee,
There in dust we place thy head;
O’er thee now the turf is pressing,
And grows green thy narrow bed.
But thy spirit soars to glory,
Free, among the faithful blest,
Where the wicked cease from troubling,
And the weary are at rest.
5 When the Lord shall send His summons
Unto us who’re left behind,
May we, by the world untainted,
Gracious welcome with thee find;
Each like thee, in peace departing,
To the kingdom of the blest,
Where the wicked cease from troubling,
And the weary are at rest. Used With Tune: MOYLE Text Sources: "The Martyr of Antioch"
