Our King

Hymnal: Bible Study Songs #149d (1899) Topics: New Words to Old Tunes First Line: The busy, pleasant day Lyrics: 1 The busy, pleasant day Has softly passed away On sunset wing; And twilight shadows throng To hear our even-song, Its thankful strain prolong To Christ, our King. 2 Unlike the kings of earth, He was of lowly birth, And humble name. But all his life was spent On thoughts of love intent; Where'er his footsteps went, A blessing came. 3 The poor, the sick, and old, In hunger, want and cold, He loved them all. No words can e'er express His heavenly tenderness; He still can save and bless The souls that call. 4 And he is with us now; O let our spirits bow His love to meet. Our Brother and our Friend, Whose kingdom has no end, On whom our hearts depend In trust complete. Languages: English

Hymn for Harvest

Chorus: Willing service, sacrifice or gift, Daily offerings, while our prayers we lift, These we give the Master, who from heaven came, Now, we offer praises in his name. 2 Praise him for the presence of the King of kings In the service which "his own" relieves; For the joy and gladness willing service brings, Off'ring which the Lord himself receives. [Chorus] 3 For the harvest golden, praise devout we give; And a portion, with a joy supreme, We bestow on others, bid them look and live, For our Christ all nations shall redeem.

Good-night, dear friends, good night, good-night, Our entertainment o'er, We needs must speak the words again, So often heard before. 2 Our hearts are glad, our spirits high, In all things we rejoice; The words that sometimes bring a sigh, We sing with cheerful voice. Good-night, dear friends, good night, good-night, Our entertainment o'er, We needs must speak the words again, So often heard before. 3 A brief good-by, to meet again, Is all we say to-night; God keep us all, and give us sleep, Till breaks the morning light. Good-night, dear friends, good-night, good-night, Now let the curtain fall, The closing moment comes at last, And so, good-night to all. Languages: English
