“Far Better.”
Author: Joseph Morris Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Many dear ones are departed Lyrics:
Many dear ones are departed
To the grave’s dark silent land:
I shall soon receive the summons
There to lie amid the band;
Where they hear not
Any more sad earth’s complaints.
Blest are they who have expired
In the Lord, supremely blest!
In the port so oft desired
They for ever safely rest.
How much better,
There to sing than sigh with us!
“Far Better.”

'Mid the Splendors of the Glory
Author: William Reed Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1. ’Mid the splendors of the glory,
Which we hope ere long to share;
Christ our Head, and we His members,
Shall appear divinely fair.
Oh, how wondrous!
When we meet Him in the air!
2. From the dateless, timeless periods,
He has loved us without cause;
And for all His blood-bought myriads,
His is love that knows no pause.
Matchless Lover!
Changeless as the eternal laws!
3. Oh what gifts shall yet be granted,
Palms, and crowns, and robes of white,
When the hope for which we panted,
Bursts upon our gladdened sight,
And our Savior
Makes us glorious through His might.
4. Bright the prospect soon that greets us
Of that longed-for nuptial day,
When our heavenly Bridegroom meets us
On His kingly, conquering way;
In the glory,
Bride and Bridegroom reign for aye! Used With Tune: BENEDICTION (Mann) Text Sources: Our Own Hymn-Book, by Charles H. Spurgeon, 1868, number 342

In the Vineyard of Our Father
Author: Thomas MacKellar Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Appears in 117 hymnals Lyrics: 1 In the vineyard of our Father
Daily work we find to do;
Scattered gleanings we may gather,
Though we are but weak and few;
Little clusters
Help to fill the basket too.
2 Toiling early in the morning,
Catching moments through the day,
Nothing small or lowly scorning,
While we work, and watch, and pray;
Gathering gladly
Free-will offerings by the way.
3 Not for selfish praise or glory,
Not for objects nothing worth,
But to send the blessèd story
Of the Gospel o'er the earth,
Telling mortals
Of our Lord and Saviour's birth.
4 Up and ever at our calling,
Till in death our lips are dumb,
Or till sin's dominion falling,
Christ shall in His kingdom come,
And His children
Reach their everlasting home.
5 Steadfast, then, in our endeavor,
Heavenly Father, may we be;
And forever, and forever,
We will give the praise to Thee;
Alleluia!
Singing all eternity.
Hymnal: according to the use of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America, 1871

When the sacred Word shall spread
To the earth’s remotest regions,

2 Precious Bible, what a treasure
Is within thy pages stored,
Sacred promises and precepts,
Doctrines worthy of the Lord;
Streams of mercy
Flowing wide and far abroad.
3 By their influence, the desert
Shall become a fertile plain,
Buds and blossoms spread their beauties,
Concord there begin its reign:
Precious Bible,
May it still new conquests gain. Used With Tune: RAPHAEL Text Sources: Hymns Adapted to Public Worship (London: Burton & Briggs, 1818)

Oh give thanks, for God is gracious
Author: David Mowbray, 1938- Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: "Oh give thanks, for God is gracious!" Lyrics: 1 "Oh give thanks, for God is gracious!"
now may Israel truly say;
through great trials God has brought us
to the dawn of this new day.
All God's children,
praise the wonders God has done.
2 When God's people walked the desert,
hungry, thirsty, faint of heart,
God prepared for them a city,
gave them hope and took their part.
All God's children,
praise the wonders God has done.
3 Those who steer their ships through trouble,
ride the storm and plumb the deep,
reach at length their promised haven,
bless that grace which brings them sleep.
All God's children,
praise the wonders God has done.
4 Oh give thanks for all God's mercies:
fields are watered, crops are sown,
sheep and cattle fill the pastures,
babes in arms have safely grown.
All God's children,
praise the wonders God has done.
