Jesus, still lead on

Author: Jane Borthwick; Nicolaus L. Zinzendorf Hymnal: BWHT1899 #533 (1899) Lyrics: 1 Jesus, still lead on Till our rest is won; And, although the way be cheerless, We will follow calm and fearless; Guide us by Thy hand To our Fatherland. 2 If the way be drear, If the foe be near, Let not faithless fears o'ertake us, Let not faith and hope forsake us; For through many a woe To our home we go. 3 When we seek relief From a long-felt grief, When temptations come, alluring, Make us patient and enduring. Show us that bright shore, Where we weep no more. 4 Jesus, still lead on, Till our rest is won; Heavenly Leader, still direct us, Still support, console, protect us, Till we safely stand In our Fatherland.

Work, for the night is coming

Author: Anna L. (Walker) Coghill Hymnal: BWHT1899 #540 (1899) 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 labor, 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. Amen.
