I Love To Tell The Story
Lead On, O King Eternal
Author: Ernest W. Shurtleff Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 397 hymnals Topics: Christian Education Lyrics: 1 Lead on, O King Eternal,
The day of march has come;
Henceforth in fields of conquest
Thy tents shall be our home.
Through days of preparation
Your grace has made us strong,
And now, O King Eternal,
We lift our battle song.
2 Lead on, O King Eternal,
Till sin's fierce war shall cease,
And holiness shall whisper
The sweet Amen of peace;
For not with swords loud clashing,
Nor roll of stirring drums,
With deeds of love and mercy
The heav'nly kingdom comes.
3 Lead on, O King Eternal,
We follow, not with fears;
For gladness breaks like morning
Where'er Your face appears;
Thy cross is lifted o'er us;
We journey in its light:
The crown awaits the conquest;
Lead on, O God of might.
Amen.

Shepherd of Tender Youth
Author: Clement of Alexandria; Henry M. Dexter Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Appears in 278 hymnals Topics: Christian Education Lyrics: 1 Shepherd of tender youth,
guiding in love and truth
through winding ways:
Christ, our triumphant King,
we come your name to sing;
here we our children bring
to shout your praise.
2 You are our holy Lord,
the all-subduing Word,
healer of strife:
you did yourself abase,
that from sin's deep disgrace
your might now save our race,
and give us life.
3 You are the great High Priest,
you have prepared the feast
of heav'nly love:
while in our mortal pain,
none calls on you in vain;
help you do not disdain,
help from above.
4 Forever be our Guide,
our Shepherd and our pride,
our staff and song:
Jesus, O Christ of God,
by your enduring Word,
lead us where you have trod;
make our faith strong.
5 So now and till we die,
sound we your praises high,
and joyful sing:
infants and the glad throng
who to your church belong
unite to swell the song
to Christ our King. Scripture: Isaiah 40:11 Used With Tune: CUTTING

O Master, Let Me Walk with Thee
Author: Washington Gladden Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 571 hymnals Topics: Christian Education Lyrics: 1 O Master, let me walk with Thee
In lowly paths of service free;
Tell me Thy secret; help me bear
The strain of toil, the fret of care.
2 Help me the slow of heart to move
By some clear, winning word of love;
Teach me the wayward feet to stay,
And guide them in the homeward way.
3 Teach me Thy patience! still with Thee
In closer, dearer company,
In work that keeps faith sweet and strong,
In trust that triumphs over wrong;
4 In hope that sends a shining ray
Far down the future's broadening way,
In peace that only Thou canst give,
With Thee, O Master, let me live.
Amen. Used With Tune: MARYTON

Lord, You Give the Great Commission
Author: Jeffery Rowthorn Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 43 hymnals Topics: Christian Education Refrain First Line: With the Spirit's gifts empower us Lyrics: 1 Lord, you give the great commission:
"Heal the sick and preach the word."
Lest the church neglect its mission
and the gospel go unheard,
help us witness to your purpose
with renewed integrity:
With the Spirit's gifts empower
us for the work of ministry.
2 Lord, you call us to your service:
"In my name baptize and teach."
That the world may trust your promise,
life abundant meant for each,
give us all new fervor, draw us
closer in community:
With the Spirit's gifts empower
us for the work of ministry.
3 Lord, you make the common holy:
"This my body, this my blood."
Let us all, for earth's true glory,
daily lift life heavenward,
asking that the world around us
share your children's liberty:
With the Spirit's gifts empower
us for the work of ministry.
4 Lord, you show us love's true measure:
"Father, what they do, forgive."
Yet we hoard as private treasure
all that you so freely give.
May your care and mercy lead us
to a just society:
With the Spirit's gifts empower
us for the work of ministry.
5 Lord, you bless with words assuring:
"I am with you to the end."
Faith and hope and love restoring,
may we serve as you intend,
and, amid the cares that claim us,
hold in mind eternity:
With the Spirit's gifts empower
us for the work of ministry.

How Shall the Young Secure Their Hearts
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 474 hymnals Topics: Christian Education Lyrics: 1 How shall the young secure their hearts
And guard their lives from sin?
Your Word, O Lord, the truth imparts
To keep the conscience clean.
2 Your Word is like a heav'nly light
That guides us all the day,
And through the dangers of the night
A lamp to lead our way.
3 The starry heav'ns your rule obey;
The earth maintains its place;
And these your servants night and day
Your skill and pow'r express.
4 But still your law and gospel, Lord,
Have lessons more divine;
Not earth stands firmer than your Word
Nor stars so nobly shine.
5 Your Word is everlasting truth;
How pure is ev'ry page!
That holy Book will guide our youth
And well support our age. Used With Tune: ST. PETER

O People Blest, Whose Sons in Youth
Meter: 8.8.6 D Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: Christian Education Lyrics: 1 O people blest, whose sons in youth,
in sturdy strength and noble truth,
like plants in vigor spring;
whose daughters fair, a queenly race,
are like the cornerstones that grace
the palace of a king,
the palace of a king.
2 O people blest, when flock and field
their rich, abundant increase yield,
and blessings multiply;
when plenty all thy children share,
and no invading foe is there,
and no distressful cry,
and no distressful cry.
3 O happy people, favored land,
to whom the Lord with lib'ral hand
has thus his goodness shown;
yea, surely is that people blest
by whom Jehovah is confessed
to be their God alone,
to be their God alone.
