The Will, the Will of Christ

Author: Amos R. Wells Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Service and Dependence First Line: Around the world the chorus rings Lyrics: 1 Around the world the chorus rings, And hands are joined with hands; A Brotherhood of Service sings In all the happy lands; United sounds the watchword still That ever has sufficed; "The will, the will, the blessed will! The will of Jesus Christ!" 2 In crowded town or lonely plain, 'Mid many friends or few, With man's applause or man's disdain, To one allegiance true, That sole desire their hearts could fill, Tho' all the earth enticed; The will, the will, the precious will! The will of Jesus Christ!" 3 When proud Ambition gilds her goal, When Ease to slumber calls, When silken Mammon lures the soul To rainbow-tinted halls, The Brotherhood of Service still Exalts the Pearl unpriced; The will, the will, the holy will! The will of Jesus Christ!" 4 And when at last the golden years Have brought the crowning day, When toil and trial, pain and fears, Forever pass away, Upon the summit of the hill Is One that keepeth tryst; 'Tis He, the Will, the living Will! Our Master, Jesus Christ!" Used With Tune: [Around the world the chorus rings]

Responsibility of Civil Officers

Appears in 6 hymnals Topics: Nations Dependence on God First Line: Where'er His creatures gather Lyrics: 1 Where'er His creatures gather The unseen God is near; Let rulers fear their Ruler, Their Judge let judges fear. How long, ye earthly judges, Will ye pervert the right? How long shall wicked persons Have favor in your sight? 2 Do justice for the helpless, The orphan's cause maintain; Defend the poor and needy, Oppressed and wronged for gain. When rulers walk in darkness, When judges truth forsake, The cornerstones are crumbled, The firm foundations shake. 3 The Most High God has called you And set you up on high, But ye to Him must answer, For ye like men must die. Arise, O God Eternal, Thou Judge of all the earth, Thro' all Thy ransomed nations Send now Thy justice forth. Scripture: Psalm 82 Used With Tune: ALGIERS
