Ye Christian heralds, go, proclaim

Author: B. H. Draper Appears in 481 hymnals Topics: The Church Ordinations Lyrics: 1 Ye Christian heralds, go, proclaim Salvation in Emmanuel's name: To distant climes the tidings bear, And plant the Rose of Sharon there. 2 God shield you with a wall of fire, With holy zeal your hearts inspire, Bid raging winds their fury cease, And calm the savage breast to peace. 3 And when our labours all are o'er, Then may we meet to part no more, Meet, with the ransomed throng to fall, And crown the Saviour Lord of all.

Thy seal, O Lord, the holy sign

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 14 hymnals Topics: The Church Her Ordinances and Offices Lyrics: 1 Thy seal, O Lord, the holy sign That we, hereafter, should be Thine, Was placed upon our infant brow, And shall we fear to own it now? 2 O God, forbid; before the vain, The proud, the scoffing, the profane, We will, through grace, our Lord confess, His faint but faithful witnesses. 3 His strength in weakness He displays, From youthful lips He perfects praise, And we, His faithful soldiers, stand Strong in the might of His right hand. 4 Smile on us, Lord, and we will fear Nor scorn, nor shame, whilst Thou art near; Reproach is glory, suffering rest, If borne for Thee, if by Thee blest. 5 Great Judge of all, in that dread day, When heaven and earth shall flee away, Before the universe confess Thy faint but faithful witnesses. Amen. Used With Tune: HOLY CROSS

Lord of the Living Harvest

Author: John Samuel Bewley Monsell Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 120 hymnals Topics: The Church The Ministry-Ordination; Church Ordination Lyrics: 1 Lord of the living harvest That whitens o'er the plain, Where angels soon shall gather Their sheaves of golden grain, Accept these hands to labor, These hearts to trust and love, And deign with them to hasten Thy kingdom from above. 2 As lab'rers in Thy vineyard, Still faithful may they be, Content to bear the burden Of weary days for Thee; To ask no other wages, When Thou shalt call them home, But to have shared the travail Which makes Thy kingdom come. 3 Come down, Thou Holy Spirit, And fill their souls with light, Clothe them in spotless raiment, In vesture clean and white; Within Thy sacred temple Be with them where they stand, To guide and teach Thy people In this and every land. 4 Be with them, God the Father! Be with them, God the Son! And God the Holy Spirit! Most blessèd Three in One! Make them Thy chose heralds, On them the Spirit pour, And fill them with Thy fullness Both now and evermore! Amen. Used With Tune: VALET WILL ICH DIR GEBEN
