Author: James Maxwell Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #378 (1926) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Commissioning of Missionaries Lyrics: 1 Go forth, ye heralds, in My Name, Sweetly the Gospel trumpet sound; The glorious jubilee proclaim, Where'er the human race is found. 2 The joyful news to all impart, And teach them where salvation lies; With care bind up the broken heart, And wipe the tears from weeping eyes. 3 Be wise as serpents where you go, But harmless as the peaceful dove; And let your heaven-taught conduct show Ye are commissioned from above. 4 Freely from Me ye have received, Freely, in love, to others give; Thus shall your doctrines be believed, And, by your labors, sinners live. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: WENN WIR IN HÖCHSTEN NÖTHEN SEIN

How Clear Is Our Vocation, Lord

Author: Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: Voices United #504 (1996) Meter: 8.6.8.8.6.6 Topics: The Church at Worship Profession of Faith, Ordination, Commissioning, Installation; Commissioning Lyrics: 1 How clear is our vocation, Lord, when once we heed your call: to live according to your word, and daily learn, refreshed, restored, that you are over all and will not let us fall. 2 But if, forgetful, we should find your yoke is hard to bear, if worldly pressures fray the mind and love itself cannot unwind its tangled skein of care: our inward life repair. 3 We mark your saints, how they become in hindrances more sure, whose joyful virtues put to shame the casual way we wear your name, and by our faults obscure your power to cleanse and cure. 4 In what you give us, here, to do, together or alone, in old routines and ventures new, may we not cease to look to you, the cross you hung upon -- all you endeavoured done.
