How Clear Is Our Vocation, Lord

Author: Fred Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Meter: 8.6.8.8.6.6 Appears in 19 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 12:1-4 Lyrics: 1 How clear is our vocation, Lord, When once we heed Your call: To live according to Your Word And daily learn, refreshed, restored, That You are Lord of all And will not let us fall. 2 But if, forgetful, we should find Your yoke is hard to bear; If worldly pressures fray the mind, And love itself cannot unwind Its tangled skein of care: Our inward life repair. 3 We marvel how Your saints become In hindrances more sure; Whose joyful virtues put to shame The casual way we wear Your name And by our faults obscure Your pow'r to cleanse and cure. 4 In what You give us, Lord, to do, Together or alone, In old routines or ventures new, May we not cease to look to You, The cross You hung upon-- All You endeavored done.

Church of God

Author: Frances R. Havergal; Daniel S. Warner Meter: 8.7.8.7 D with refrain Appears in 10 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 12:22-23 First Line: Church of God, thou spotless virgin Lyrics: 1 Church of God, thou spotless virgin, Church of Christ, for whom He died, Thou hast known no human founder, Jesus bought thee for His bride. Sanctified by God the Father, Built by Jesus Christ the Son, Tempered by the Holy Spirit, Like the Holy Three in One. 2 God Himself has set the members In His body all complete, Organized by Jesus only, Oh, the union, pure and sweet! Church of God, the angels marvel At the music of thy song; Earth and hell in terror tremble, As thy army moves along. 3 Church of God, “beloved city,” Thou art of celestial mold; Lo, from God, and out of heaven, Came the city of pure gold. Stones of jasper, clear as crystal, Is the building of thy wall; And the Lamb, thy light forever, Jesus, Jesus, all in all. 4 God’s own holiness within thee, His own beauty on thy brow; Glorified in His own image, This thy wondrous portion now. In thee dwells the triune fullness, Blessing all thy pilgrim days; All around thee His salvation, And before thee gates of praise. 5 Church of God, in heaven written, Thine the risen life of Christ, And the treasures to thee given, Never, never can be priced. Far above this world’s confusion, Walking close by Jesus’ side, Leaning on His loving bosom, Is the church, His chosen bride.

Oh, for a Closer Walk with God

Author: William Cowper Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,368 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 12:14 Lyrics: 1 Oh, for a closer walk with God, a calm and heavenly frame, a light to shine upon the road that leads me to the Lamb! 2 Where is the blessedness I knew when first I sought the Lord? Where is the soul-refreshing view of Jesus and his Word? 3 What peaceful hours I once enjoyed! How sweet their memory still! But they have left an aching void the world can never fill. 4 The dearest idol I have known, whate'er that idol be, help me to tear it from thy throne and worship only thee. 5 So shall my walk be close with God, calm and serene my frame; so purer light shall mark the road that leads me to the Lamb.

Glorious things of thee are spoken

Author: John Newton (1725-1807) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1,292 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 12:22 Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of thee are spoken, Zion, city of our God; he whose word cannot be broken formed thee for his own abode. On the Rock of Ages founded, what can shake thy sure repose? With salvation's walls surrounded, thou mayest smile at all thy foes. 2 See! the streams of living waters, springing from eternal love, well supply thy sons and daughters, and all fear of want remove. Who can faint while such a river ever will their thirst assuage -- grace which, like the Lord the Giver, never fails from age to age? 3 Saviour, since of Zion's city I, through grace, a member am, let the world deride or pity, I will glory in thy Name. Fading is the worldling's pleasure, and all boasted pomp and show; solid joys and lasting treasure none but Zion's children know.

Your Redeemer's conflict see; watch with him one bitter hour; turn not from his griefs away, learn of Jesus Christ to pray. 2 Follow to the judgement hall; view the Lord of life arraigned. O the wormwood and gall! O the grief his souls sustained! Shun not suffering, shame, or loss; learn of him to bear the cross. 3 Calvary's mournful mountain climb; there, adoring at his feet, mark that miracle of time— God's own sacrifice complete. "It is finished!" hear him cry; learn of Jesus Christ to die. Topics: Holy Week (Good Friday) Used With Tune: NICHT SO TRAURIG
