Light of the world, we hail Thee
Author: Rev. John S. B. Monsell Hymnal: The Hymnal #422 (1950) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth World Friendship and Peace Lyrics: 1 Light of the world, we hail Thee,
Flushing the eastern skies;
Never shall darkness veil Thee
Again from human eyes;
Too long, alas, withholden,
Now spread from shore to shore;
Thy light, so glad and golden,
Shall set on earth no more.
2 Light of the world, Thy beauty
Steals into every heart,
And glorifies with duty
Life's poorest, humblest part;
Thou robest in Thy splendor
The simple ways of men,
And helpest them to render
Light back to Thee again.
3 Light of the world, illumine
This darkened land of Thine,
Till everything that's human
Be filled with what's divine;
Till every tongue and nation,
From sin's dominion free,
Rise in the new creation
Which springs from love and Thee.
Amen. Tune Title: MEIRIONYDD

O Say, Can You See (The Star-Spangled Banner)
Author: Frances Scott Key, 1779-1834 Hymnal: African Methodist Episcopal Church Hymnal #570 (2011) Meter: Irregular with refrain Topics: Kingdom of God on Earth Patriotic First Line: O say, can you see, by the dawn's early light Refrain First Line: O say, does that Star-spangled Banner yet wave Lyrics: 1 O say, can you see, by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming,
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets' red glare the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
O say, does the Star-Spangled Banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
2 On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
Where the foe's haughty host in dead silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected, now shines on the stream;
'Tis the Star-Spangled Banner; O long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
3 And where is that band, who so vauntingly swore,
'Mid the havoc of war and the battle's confusion,
A home and a country they'd leave us no more?
Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution;
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave,
And the Star-Spangled Banner in triumph doth wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
4 O thus be it ever when free men shall stand
Between their loved homes and the war's desolation;
Blest with victory and peace, may the heaven-rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation!
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just;
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust!"
And the Star-Spangled Banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave. Scripture: Psalm 33:12 Languages: English Tune Title: NATIONAL ANTHEM
O Say, Can You See (The Star-Spangled Banner)
Light of light that shineth
Author: Rev. Godfrey Thring Hymnal: The Hymnal #380 (1950) Meter: 6.5.6.5 D with refrain Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Missions First Line: From the eastern mountains Lyrics: 1 From the eastern mountains
Pressing on they come,
Wise Men in their wisdom,
To His humble home;
Stirred by deep devotion,
Hasting from afar,
Ever journeying onward,
Guided by a star.
Refrain:
Light of light that shineth
Ere the worlds began,
Draw Thou near, and lighten
Every heart of man.
2 Gather in the people,
All who've gone astray,
Throw Thy radiance o'er them,
Guide them on their way:
Those who never knew Thee,
Those who've wandered far,
Lead them by the brightness
Of Thy guiding Star. [Refrain]
3 Onward through the darkness
Of the lonely night,
Shining still before them
With Thy kindly light,
Guide them all, Thy children,
Homeward from afar,
Young and old together,
By Thy guiding Star. [Refrain]
Amen. Tune Title: VALOUR
Light of light that shineth
Fling out the banner! let it float
Author: Bishop George W. Doane Hymnal: The Hymnal #384 (1950) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Missions Lyrics: 1 Fling out the banner! let it float
Skyward and seaward, high and wide;
The sun that lights its shining folds,
The Cross on which the Saviour died.
2 Fling out the banner! angels bend
In anxious silence o'er the sign,
And vainly seek to comprehend
The wonder of the Love divine.
3 Fling out the banner! distant lands
Shall see from far the glorious sight,
And nations, crowding to be born,
Baptize their spirits in its light.
4 Fling out the banner! sin-sick souls
That sink and perish in the strife,
Shall touch in faith its radiant hem
And spring immortal into life.
5 Fling out the banner! let it float
Skyward and seaward, high and wide,
Our glory, only in the cross;
Our only hope, the Crucified!
6 Fling out the banner! wide and high,
Seaward and skyward, let it shine:
Nor skill, nor might, nor merit ours;
We conquer only in that sign.
Amen. Tune Title: WALTHAM
Fling out the banner! let it float
From Greenland's icy mountains
Author: Bishop Reginald Heber Hymnal: The Hymnal #385 (1950) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Missions Lyrics: 1 From Greenland's icy mountains,
From India's coral strand,
Where Afric's sunny fountains
Roll down their golden sand,
From many an ancient river,
From many a palmy plain,
They call us to deliver
Their land from error's chain.
2 Can we, whose souls are lighted
With wisdom from on high,
Can we to men benighted
The lamp of life deny?
Salvation! O salvation!
The joyful sound proclaim
Till each remotest nation
Has learned Messiah's Name.
3 Waft, waft, ye winds, His story,
And you, ye waters, roll,
Till like a sea of glory
It spreads from pole to pole;
Till o'er our ransomed nature
The Lamb for sinners slain,
Redeemer, King, Creator,
In bliss returns to reign.
Amen. Tune Title: MISSIONARY HYMN
From Greenland's icy mountains
The morning light is breaking
Author: Rev. Samuel F. Smith Hymnal: The Hymnal #389 (1950) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Missions Lyrics: 1 The morning light is breaking,
The darkness disappears;
The sons of earth are waking
To penitential tears;
Each breeze that sweeps the ocean
Brings tidings from afar
Of nations in commotion,
Prepared for Zion's war.
2 Blest river of salvation,
Pursue thy onward way;
Flow thou to every nation,
Nor in thy richness stay:
Stay not till all the lowly
Triumphant reach their home;
Stay not till all the holy
Proclaim, "The Lord is come."
Amen. Tune Title: WEBB
The morning light is breaking
Master, no offering
Author: Rev. Edwin P. Parker Hymnal: The Hymnal #407 (1950) Meter: 6.4.6.4.6.6.4 Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Brotherhood Lyrics: 1 Master, no offering
Costly and sweet,
May we, like Magdalene,
Lay at Thy feet;
Yet may love's incense rise,
Sweeter than sacrifice,
Dear Lord, to Thee,
Dear Lord, to Thee.
2 Daily our lives would show
Weakness made strong,
Toilsome and gloomy ways
Brightened with song;
Some deeds of kindness done,
Some souls by patience won,
Dear Lord, to Thee,
Dear Lord, to Thee.
3 Some word of hope for hearts
Burdened with fears,
Some balm of peace for eyes
Blinded with tears,
Some dews of mercy shed,
Some wayward footsteps led,
Dear Lord, to Thee,
Dear Lord, to Thee.
4 Thus, in Thy service, Lord,
Till eventide
Closes the day of life,
May we abide!
And when earth's labors cease,
Bid us depart in peace,
Dear Lord, to Thee,
Dear Lord, to Thee.
Amen. Tune Title: LOVE'S OFFERING
Master, no offering
O Lord, our God, Thy mighty hand
Author: Rev. Henry van Dyke Hymnal: The Hymnal #415 (1950) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth The Nation Lyrics: 1 O Lord, our God, Thy mighty hand
Hath made our country free;
From all her broad and happy land
May worship rise to Thee.
Fulfill the promise of her youth,
Her liberty defend;
By law and order, love and truth,
America, America, befriend!
2 The strength of every state increase
In union’s golden chain;
Her thousand cities fill with peace,
Her million fields with grain.
The virtues of her mingled blood
In one new people blend;
By unity and brotherhood,
America, America, befriend!
3 O suffer not her feet to stray;
But guide her untaught might,
That she may walk in peaceful day,
And lead the world in light.
Bring down the proud, lift up the poor,
Unequal ways amend;
By justice, nationwide and sure,
America, America, befriend!
4 Through all the waiting land proclaim
Thy gospel of good will;
And may the joy of Jesus’ Name
In every bosom thrill.
O’er hill, and vale, from sea to sea,
Thy holy reign extend;
By faith and hope and charity,
America, America, befriend!
Amen. Tune Title: AMERICA BEFRIEND
O Lord, our God, Thy mighty hand
