How Shall They Hear the Word of God

Author: Michael A. Perry Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.8 Appears in 15 hymnals Topics: Preaching; Preaching Lyrics: 1 How shall they hear the word of God unless his truth is told? How shall the sinful be set free, the sorrowful consoled? To all who speak the truth today, impart your Spirit, Lord, we pray. 2 How shall they call to God for help unless they have believed? How shall the poor be given hope, the prisoner reprieved? To those who help the blind to see, give light and love and clarity. 3 How shall the gospel be proclaimed that sinners may repent? How shall the world find peace at last if heralds are not sent? So send us, Lord, for we rejoice to speak of Christ with life and voice. Scripture: Romans 10:14-17 Used With Tune: O JESU

Brethren, We Have Met to Worship

Author: George Atkins, 19th cent Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 278 hymnals Topics: Preaching Lyrics: 1 Brethren, we have met to worship and adore the Lord our God; will you pray with all your power, while we try to preach the Word? All is vain, unless the Spirit of the Holy One comes down; brethren, pray, and holy manna will be showered all around. 2 Brethren, see poor sinners round you slumb'ring on the brink of woe; death is coming, hell is moving– can you bear to let them go? See our fathers and our mothers and our children sinking down; brethren, pray, and holy manna will be showered all around. 3 Sisters, will you join and help us? Moses' sister aided him; will you help the trembling mourners who are struggling hard with sin? Tell them all about the Savior– tell them that he will be found; sisters, pray, and holy manna will be showered all around. 4 Let us love our God supremely, let us love each other too; let us love and pray for sinners till our God makes all things new. Then he'll call us home to heaven, at his table we'll sit down; Christ will gird himself and serve us with sweet manna all around. Scripture: Exodus 16:4 Used With Tune: HOLY MANNA

We the joyful Sound have heard

Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: After Preaching Lyrics: We the joyful Sound have heard, And, hearing, have believ'd; What the Gospel hath declar'd, We, Sinners, have receiv'd: Blasted lies the Creature's Pride, And human Haughtiness sinks low; Jesus, and him crucify'd, Is all the Bliss we know.

Could I of all Perfection boast

Appears in 8 hymnals Topics: After Preaching Lyrics: 1 Could I of all Perfection boast, As pure as that which Adam lost, I'd sacrifice it to thy Blood, My Christ, my All, my only Good. 2 Were I as Abra'm, strong in Faith, And boldly stedfast unto Death; I'd bid my Faithfulness adieu, And Jesus only faithful view. 3 If I more meek than Moses were, Quite free from Anger, Strife, or Fear; Yet this I gladly would despise, And Jesu's Meekness only prize. 4 Was I as Job submissive, still Patient, resign'd in ev'ry Ill; Yet all should fade before his Cross, Compar'd with Him, it is but Dross. 5 If I was wise as Solomon, Like him with Zeal and Adour shone; Like him I'd vain and foolish see My Wisdom, Zeal, yea all but Thee. 6 Had I an Angel's Purity; Yea even this I would deny; Nor Good confess in Name or Thing, But Christ my Lord, my Life, my King. Scripture: Job 9:21

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 10 hymnals Topics: Gospel Preaching of First Line: Ye children, come, give ear to me Lyrics: 1 Ye children, come, give ear to me And learn Jehovah's fear; He who would long and happy live, Let him my counsel hear. 2 Restrain thy lips from speaking guile, From wicked speech depart, From evil turn and do the good, Seek peace with all thy heart. 3 Jehovah's eyes are on the just, He hearkens to their cry; Against the wicked sets His face, Their very name shall die. 4 The Lord may suffer many griefs Upon the just to fall, But He will bring them safely through, Deliv'ring them from all. 5 By evil are the evil slain, And they that hate the just; But all His servants God redeems, And safe in Him they trust. Scripture: Psalm 34 Used With Tune: ALEXANDRIA
