How thankful the Apostles were

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Colossians 1:9-14 Lyrics: 1 How thankful the Apostles were, When e'er such happy news they heard; That God had heard their humble pray'r, And bless'd their preaching of the word. 2 This was their main and chief delight, The Saviour's church on earth to build; For this they labour'd day and night, To have this glorious work fulfill'd. 3 They spar'd no labour, toil or pain To make the Gospel mist'ries known; They strove to shew their fellow-men, What Christ for fallen man had done. 4 When Christ his dear disciples sent, The way of life was plainly taught; It caused many to repent, When messages of peace were brought. 5 When men are made the truth to b'lieve, By hearing what the Gospel saith; Their souls are made in Christ to live, And grow in love and hope and faith. 6 When thus their hearts are made to feel, And know the mercies of their God; Their minds are fill'd with fervent zeal, To walk the strait and narrow road.
