Where Cross the Crowded Ways of Life

Author: Frank Mason North, 1850-1935 Hymnal: AMEC1984 #561 (2011) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Where cross the crowded ways of life, Where sound the cries of race and clan, Above the noise of selfish strife, We hear Thy voice, O Son of man! 2 In haunts of wretchedness and need, On shadowed thresholds dark with fears, From paths where hide the lures of greed, We catch the vision of Thy tears. 3 The cup of water given for Thee Still holds the freshness of Thy grace; Yet long these multitudes to see The sweet compassion of Thy face. 4 O Master, from the mountainside, Make haste to heal these hearts of pain; Among these restless throngs abide, O tread the city's streets again, 5 Till sons of men shall learn Thy love And follow where Thy feet have trod; Till, glorious from Thy heaven above, Shall come the city of our God! Amen. Topics: Kingdom of God on Earth Missions; Brotherhood; Forgiveness; Missions Scripture: Matthew 22:9 Languages: English Tune Title: GERMANY

Hark! the Voice of Jesus Calling

Author: Daniel March, 1816-1909 Hymnal: AMEC1984 #562 (2011) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Hark! the voice of Jesus calling, "Who will go and work today? Fields are whit, and harvests waiting, Who will bear the sheaves away?" Loud and strong the Master calleth, Rich reward He offers thee; Who will answer, gladly saying, "Here am I; send me! send me"? 2 If you cannot cross the ocean, And the heathen lands explore, You can find the heathen nearer, You can help them at your door. If you cannot give your thousands, You can give the widow's mite; And the least you do for Jesus Will be precious in His sight. 3 If you cannot be a watchman Standing high on Zion's wall, Pointing out the path to heaven, Offering life and peace to all, With your prayers and with your bounties You can do what heaven demands; You can be like faithful Aaron, Holding up the prophet's hands. 4 Let none hear you idly saying, "There is nothing I can do," While the souls of men are dying, And the Master calls for you. Take the task He gives you gladly; Let His work your pleasure be; Answer quickly when He calleth, "Here am I; send me! send me."

On the Mountain's Top Appearing

Welcome news to Zion bearing, Zion, long in hostile lands: Mourning captive, God Himself will loose thy bands; Mourning captive, God Himself will loose thy bands. 2 Has thy night been long and mournful? Have thy friends unfaithful proved? Have thy foes been proud and scornful, By thy sighs and tears unmoved? Cease thy mourning; Zion still is well beloved; Cease thy mourning: Zion still is well beloved. 3 God, thy God, will now restore thee; He Himself appears thy Friend; All thy foes shall flee before thee; Here their boasts and triumphs end; Great deliverance Zion's King will surely send; Great deliverance Zion's King will surely send. 4 Enemies no more shall trouble, All thy wrongs shall be redressed; For thy shame thou shalt have double: In thy Maker's favor blessed; All thy conflicts End in everlasting rest; All thy conflicts End in everlasting rest.
