Our Country's Voice Is Pleading
Author: Maria F. Anderson Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 157 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Our country’s voice is pleading,
Ye men of God, arise!
His providence is leading,
The land before you lies;
Day-gleams o’er it are brightening,
And promise clothes the soil;
Wide fields, for harvest whitening,
Invite the reaper’s toil.
2. Go where the waves are breaking
On California’s shore,
Christ’s precious Gospel taking,
More rich than golden ore;
On Allegheny’s mountains,
Through all the western vale,
Beside Missouri’s fountains,
Rehearse the wondrous tale.
3. The love of Christ unfolding,
Speed on from east to west,
Till all, His cross beholding,
In Him are fully blest.
Great Author of salvation,
Haste, haste the glorious day,
When we, a ransomed nation,
Thy scepter shall obey! Used With Tune: WEBB Text Sources: First published in the Baptist Harp, 1849

We all are one in call,
Our varied gifts united
By Christ, the Lord of all.
A single great commission
Compels us from above
To plan and work together
That all may know Christ's love.
2 We all are called to service,
To witness in God's name.
Our ministries are diff'rent;
Our purpose is the same:
To touch the lives of others
With God's surprising grace,
So ev'ry folk and nation
May feel God's warm embrace.
3 Now let us be united,
And let our song be heard;
Now let us be a vessel
For God's redeeming Word.

We all are one in call,
Our varied gifts united
By Christ, the Lord of all. Topics: Evangelism; Evangelism Used With Tune: WEBB

To Worship, Work, and Witness
Author: Henry Lyle Lambdin Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 8 hymnals Lyrics: 1 To worship, work, and witness,
the Good News spread abroad,
we magnify your mission,
Church of the living God;
the Father's new creation
through Jesus Christ His Son,
the Spirit has empowered
to do as Christ has done.
2 Be yours the Master's purpose
to seek and save the lost,
to ransom those in bondage,
to dare not count the cost;
to love and lift the lowly,
to heed the prisoner's groan,
to take up others' burdens
and bear them as your own.
3 As members of Christ's body,
hold fast to Christ your Head;
become Christ's open letter,
by others to be read;
bear witness as Christ's temple,
Himself the cornerstone,
and be Christ's living altar
whereon His love is shown.

The day of Resurrection!
Author: John of Damascus; John Mason Neale Appears in 530 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The day of Resurrection!
Earth, tell it out abroad;
The passover of gladness,
The passover of God.
From death to life eternal,
From earth unto the sky,
Our Christ hath brought us over,
With hymns of victory.
2 Our hearts be pure from evil,
That we may see aright
The Lord in rays eternal
Of resurrection light:
And listening to His accents,
May hear, so calm and plain,
His own "All hail!"--and hearing,
May raise the victor strain.
3 Now let the heavens be joyful!
Let earth the song begin!
Let all the world keep triumph,
And all that is therein:
In grateful exultation
Their notes let all things blend,
For Christ the Lord hath risen,
Our joy that hath no end. Topics: The Church Year Easter; Easter Day Used With Tune: WEBB (Goodwin)

Ashamed To Be A Christian?
Author: Philip Philips Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 15 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Ashamed to be a Christian?
Afraid the world would know
I’m on my way to Zion,
Where joys eternal flow.
Forbid it, O my Savior,
That I should ever be
Afraid to wear Thy color,
Or blush to follow Thee.
2 Ashamed to be a Christian,
To love my God and king?
The fire of zeal is burning,
My soul is on the wing.
I want a faith made perfect,
That all the world may see
I stand a living witness
Of mercy, rich and free.
3 Ashamed to be a Christian!
My guilty fear depart;
I will not heed the tempter
That whispers to my heart.
Dear Savior, though unworthy,
Yet this my only plea,
Thy all atoning merit,
For Thou hast died for me. Used With Tune: WEBB Text Sources: The Revivalist, (New York : Joseph Hillman, 1868)
