Now Let Us from This Table Rise
Author: Fred Kaan Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 41 hymnals Matching Instances: 7 Lyrics: 1 Now let us from this table rise
renewed in body, mind, and soul;
with Christ we die and live again,
his selfless love has made us whole.
2 With minds alert, upheld by grace
to spread the word in speech and deed,
we follow in the steps of Christ,
at one with all in hope and need.
3 To fill each human house with love,
it is the sacrament of care;
the work that Christ began to do
we humbly pledge ourselves to share.
4 Then grant us courage, Father God,
to choose again the pilgrim way,
and help us to accept with joy
the challenge of tomorrow's day.

O love, how deep, how broad, how high
Author: Benjamin Webb, 1819-1885 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 139 hymnals Matching Instances: 5 Lyrics: 1 O love, how deep, how broad, how high,
how passing thought and fantasy,
that God, the Son of God, should take
our mortal form for mortals' sake!
2 For us baptized, for us he bore
his holy fast and hungered sore;
for us temptations sharp he knew;
for us the tempter overthrew.
3 For us he prayed; for us he taught;
for us his daily works he wrought:
by words and signs and actions, thus
still seeking not himself, but us.
4 For us to wicked hands betrayed,
scourged, mocked, in purple robe arrayed,
he bore the shameful cross and death;
for us gave up his dying breath.
5 For us he rose from death again;
for us he went on high to reign;
for us he sent his Spirit here
to guide, to strengthen, and to cheer.
6 All glory to our Lord and God
for love so deep, so high, so broad;
the Trinity whom we adore
for ever and for evermore. Topics: Jesus Christ our Lord Used With Tune: DEUS TUORUM MILITUM Text Sources: Latin, 15th cent.

From God the Father, Virgin-Born
Author: John M. Neale, 1818-1866 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 5 hymnals Matching Instances: 5 Lyrics: 1 From God the Father, virgin-born
To us the only Son came down;
By death the font to consecrate,
The faithful to regenerate.
2 Beginning from his home on high,
In human flesh he came to die;
Creation by his death restored,
And shed new joys of life abroad.
3 Glide on, O glorious Sun, and bring
The gift of healing on your wing;
To ev'ry dull and clouded sense
The clearness of your light dispense.
4 Abide with us, O Lord, we pray;
The gloom of darkness chase away;
Your work of healing, Lord, begin,
And take away the stain of sin.
5 Lord, once you came to earth’s domain
And, we believe, shall come again;
Be with us on the battlefield,
From ev'ry harm your people shield.
6 To you, O Lord, all glory be
For this your blest epiphany;
To God whom all his hosts adore,
And Holy Spirit evermore. Topics: Epiphany; Baptism of Our Lord; The Baptism of Our Lord; Epiphany Used With Tune: DEUS TUORUM MILITUM Text Sources: Latin office hymn, c. 11th cent.

Go Labor On
Author: Horatius Bonar, 1808-89 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 435 hymnals Matching Instances: 4 First Line: Go labor on. spend and be spent Lyrics: 1 Go labor on; spend and be spent --
'Tis joy to do the Father's will.
It is the way the Master went;
Should not the servant tread it still?
2 Go labor on; count not the cost --
Your earthly loss is heav'nly gain.
The world indeed will praise you not,
But you will share in heaven's reign.
3 Go labor on while it is day;
The world's dark night is hast'ning on.
Speed, speed your work, do not delay,
For it is thus that souls are won.
4 They die in darkness at your side
Without a hope to cheer the tomb;
Take up the torch and wave it wide,
The torch that lights the thickest gloom.
5 Toil on, faint not, keep watch, and pray;
Be wise the erring soul to win.
Go forth into the world's wide way;
Compel the wand'rer to come in.
6 Toil on and in your toil rejoice;
For toil comes rest, for exile home.
Soon shall you hear the Bridegroom's voice,
The midnight cry, "Behold, I come!" Topics: Evangelism; Evangelism Used With Tune: DEUS TUORUM MILITUM
