The Time for Toil
Author: Elizabeth Akers Hymnal: CHB41972 #542 (1972) Meter: 10.10.10.9.6.6 First Line: The time for toil is past, and night has come Lyrics: 1 The time for toil is past, and night has come,
The last and saddest of the harvest eves;
Worn out with labor long and wearisome,
Drooping and faint, the reapers hasten home,
Each laden with his sheaves,
Each laden with his sheaves.
2 Few, light, and worthless—yet their trifling weight
Thro' all my frame a weary aching leaves;
For long I struggled with my hapless fate,
And staid and toiled till it was dark and late,
Yet these are all my sheaves,
Yet these are all my sheaves.
3 Full well I know I have more tares than wheat,
Brambles and flow'rs, dry stalks and withered leaves;
Wherefore I blush and weep, as at thy feet
I kneel down reverently, and repeat,
"Master, behold my sheaves,"
"Master, behold my sheaves."
4 So do I gather hope and strength anew;
For well I know thy patient love perceives
Not what I did, but what I strove to do—
And though the full ripe ears be sadly few,
Thou wilt accept my sheaves,
Thou wilt accept my sheaves. Topics: Book One: Hymns, Songs, Chorales; Commission Reward for Labor Scripture: Psalm 126:6 Languages: English Tune Title: BRINGING HOME OUR SHEAVES

Thee We Adore, Eternal Name
Author: Isaac Watts (1674-1748) Hymnal: CHB41972 #557 (1972) Lyrics: 1 Thee, we adore, eternal name,
And humbly own to thee,
How feeble is our mortal frame,
What dying worms are we!
2 Our wasting lives grow shorter still,
As months and days increase,
And ev'ry beating pulse we tell,
Leaves but the number less.
3 The year rolls round, and steals away
The breath that first it gave;
Whate'er we do, whate'er we be,
We're trav'ling to the grave.
4 Dangers stand thick through all the ground,
To push us to the tomb;
And fierce diseases wait around,
To hurry mortals home.
5 Infinite joy, or wretched woe,
Attends on ev'ry breath;
And yet how unconcerned we go,
Upon the brink of death!
6 Waken, O Lord, our drowsy sense,
To walk this dang'rous road;
And if our souls are hurried hence,
May they be found with God. Topics: Book One: Hymns, Songs, Chorales; Warning Message Frailty, Uncertainty of Life Scripture: Psalm 39:4 Languages: English Tune Title: NEWCASTLE

Bright, bright as day;
There saints in glory stand,
In glad array:
O, how they sweetly sing—
Worthy is the Savior King!
Loud let his praises ring
For evermore.

Come, come away;
Why will ye doubting stand?
Why still delay?
O, we shall happy be!
When from sin and sorrow free,
Lord, we shall live with thee,
Blest evermore.

Beams ev'ry eye;
Kept by a Father’s hand,
Love cannot die.
O, then to glory run;
Be a crown and kingdom won,
And bright above the sun,
Reign evermore. Topics: Book One: Hymns, Songs, Chorales; Heaven General Scripture: John 14:2 Languages: English Tune Title: THERE IS A HAPPY LAND
