The Whole Wide World for Jesus (Plantz)
Author: Myra G. Plantz, 1856-1914 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: The whole wide world for Jesus Lyrics: 1. The whole wide world for Jesus,
But while we give and pray
For those in heathen darkness,
Some near us go astray.
They need the Gospel message,
The lost ones at our door;
God left them in our keeping
The outcast and the poor.
2. The whole wide world for Jesus,
In lands of heathen gloom,
Let some one tell the story,
Till all the deserts bloom;
But let no erring brother
Away from mercy roam,
Where God has left His children
To lead the lost ones home.
3. The whole wide world for Jesus;
Out where no signals burn
Some ships drift with the tempest,
And never more return;
But sadder far the wrecking
Beneath the harbor light,
Forgive us, Lord, for letting
Souls perish in our sight.
4. The whole wide world for Jesus;
Not long may we proclaim
To those who need the Savior
Salvation in His name.
The harvest is around us,
And we must faithful be,
If we would hear the welcome,
Ye did it unto Me. Used With Tune: ANGEL'S STORY Text Sources: Appeared posthumously in her Songs for Quiet Hours (New York: The Methodist Book Concern, 1915), pages 25-6
The Whole Wide World for Jesus (Plantz)
Far Off Our Brethren's Voices
Author: Samuel J. Stone Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: Far off our brethren’s voices Lyrics: 1 Far off our brethren’s voices
Are borne from alien lands,
Far off our Father’s children
Reach out their waiting hands:
"Give us," they cry, "our portion;
Co-heirs of grace divine:
Give us the word of promise,
Give us the Threefold line."
2 Yea, though the world of waters
Between us ever rolls,
No ocean wastes may sever
The brotherhood of souls.
Far from us, they are of us;
No bound of all the earth
May part the sons and daughters
Who share the second birth.
3 One standard floats above us,
One old historic throne;
In nearness or in distance
In loyal faith we own.
So in the things eternal
Adore we at one shrine;
And with the nation’s banner
Rear we the Church’s sign.
4 In happiest, homely commune,
When sweetest songs are sung,
Awakes those alien echoes
One sacred mother tongue.
Then let us praise together!
Together let us pray,
And go together homeward
Upon the ancient day!
5 Together, heav’nward, homeward;
For ever in our view
One spiritual city—
Jerusalem the new;
For ever drawing nearer
To One beloved, adored,
The Crucified who bought us,
The crowned, incarnate Lord.
6 Lord God! Eternal Father!
Send down the Holy Dove,
For His dear sake who loved us,
To quicken us in love;
Bless us with His compassion,
That we, or ere we rest,
May work to bless our brethren,
And, blessing, be more blest. Used With Tune: ANGEL'S STORY Text Sources: Knight of Intercession, 1872

That Glorious Day Is Coming
Author: Anonymous Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 10 hymnals Lyrics: 1. That glorious day is coming,
The hour is hastening on;
Its radiant light is nearing,
Far brighter than the sun;
In yonder clouds of heaven
The Savior will appear;
And gather all His chosen,
To meet Him in the air.
2. The saints, then all victorious
Will go to meet their Lord;
An earth both bright and glorious,
Will then be their reward;
And God Himself there reigning,
Will wipe all tears away;
Nor clouds nor night remaining,
But one eternal day.
3. O Christian, keep from sleeping,
And let your love abound;
Be watchful, prayerful, faithful,
The trumpet soon will sound!
O Sinner, hear the warning!
To Jesus quickly fly!
Then you, in that blest morning,
May meet Him in the sky! Used With Tune: ANGEL'S STORY

A New Year Prayer
Author: Emma F. R. Campbell Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Before the new year’s portal Lyrics: 1 Before the new year’s portal
With waiting feet I stand
And seek, dear Lord, a blessing,
The guidance of Thy hand.
The path is all untrodden,
No human footfall yet
Has left a trace to follow,
And save our vain regret.
2 The way seems dark before me,
With no clear guiding light;
All unrevealed its dangers
To my dim mortal sight.
Father, I dare not venture
One single step alone,
Lest I in blindness stumble
Against some hidden stone.
3 Known to Thy higher wisdom
Is all my future way;
Its roughness and its windings,
Its snares to lead astray.
Unguided I shall wander,
Lord, let me take Thy hand,
And hold Thou up my goings,
That I secure may stand.
4 I know not what awaits me
Along the coming year,
What cup of joy untasted,
What weariness or fear;
Beneath what weight of sorrow
I may be called to bow,
How near the dreary shadow
Falls on my pathway now.
5 But this I know, undoubting,
That not too great or strong,
Will be the cross Thou’lt give me,
The darkness not too long;
For loving like a father
Thou chasten but to bless;
And with each needed trial
Will give sustaining grace.
6 Lord, quiet these forebodings,
These human doubts remove;
Give me childlike assurance,
A calm, unwavering love.
Let me go forward bravely,
With willing, trusting feet,
Through Thine own strength to conquer
Each enemy I meet. Used With Tune: ANGEL'S STORY Text Sources: The Hymn "Jesus of Nazareth Passeth By": Its History and Other Verses (New York: M. E. Munson, 1909)
A New Year Prayer
O Christ, Thy love Unbounded
Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Christ, Thy love unbounded,
So full, so sweet, so free,
Leaves all our thoughts confounded,
Whene'er we think of Thee.
For us Thou cam'st from heaven,
For us didst bleed and die,
That, ransomed and forgiven,
We might ascend on high.
2 We know that Thou hast bought us,
And washed us in Thy blood:
We know Thy grace hath brought us
As kings and priests to God.
We know the blessèd morning,
Long looked for, draweth near,
When we, at Thy returning,
In glory shall appear.
3 O let Thy love constrain us
To give our hearts to Thee;
Let nothing please or pain us,
Apart, O Lord, for Thee;
Our joy, our one endeavor,
Through suffering, conflict, shame,
To serve Thee, gracious Saviour,
And magnify Thy Name.
Amen. Topics: Way of Salvation Sanctification; Trinity, Ninth Sunday; Trinity, Nineteenth Sunday; Christ Work of Used With Tune: ANGEL'S STORY (NORWICH) Text Sources: Bosworth's Hymns, 1865
