Listen! the Master beseecheth
Author: Dr. W. M. Punshon, 1824-1881 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #405 (1917) Topics: The Church and the Kingdom of God Social Service; Service Social Lyrics: 1 Listen! the Master beseecheth,
Calling each one by his name;
His voice to each loving heart reacheth,
Its cheerfullest service to claim.
Go where the vineyard demandeth
Vinedressers' nurture and care;
Or go where the white harvest standeth,
The joy of the reaper to share.
2 Seek those of evil behaviour,
Bid them their lives to amend;
Go, point the lost world to the Saviour,
And be to the friendless a friend.
Still be the lone heart of anguish,
Soothed by the pity of thine;
By waysides, if wounded ones languish
Go, pour in the oil and the wine.
3 Work for the good that is nighest,
Dream not of greatness afar;
That glory is ever the highest
Which shines upon men as they are.
Work, though the world may defeat you,
Heed not its slander and scorn;
Nor weary till angels shall greet you
With smiles through the gates of the morn.
4 Offer thy life on the altar,
In the high purpose be strong;
And if the tired spirit should falter,
Then sweeten thy labour with song.
What if the poor heart complaineth
Soon shall its wailing be o'er;
For there, in the rest that remaineth,
It shall grieve and be weary no more. Languages: English Tune Title: SANDERS
Listen! the Master beseecheth
Where cross the crowded ways of life
Author: Dr. F. Mason North, 1850- Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #367 (1917) Topics: The Church and the Kingdom of God Social Service; Service Social Lyrics: 1 Where cross the crowded ways of life,
Where sound the cries of race and clan,
Above the noise of selfish strife,
We hear Thy voice, O Son of man!
2 In haunts of wretchedness and need,
On shadowed thresholds dark with fears,
From paths where hide the lures of grace,
We catch the vision of Thy tears.
3 From tender childhood's helplessness,
From woman's grief, man's burdened toil,
From famished souls, from sorrow's stress,
Thy heart has never known recoil.
4 The cup of water given for Thee
Still holds the freshness of Thy grace;
Yet long these multitudes to see
The sweet compassion of Thy face.
5 O Master, from the mountain side,
Make haste to heal these hearts of pain,
Among these restless throngs abide,
O tread the city's streets again.
6 Till sons of men shall learn Thy love,
And follow where Thy feet have trod;
Till glorious from Thy heaven above
Shall come the city of our God. Languages: English Tune Title: MELROSE

And weep with them that weep."

Speak thou the truth: let others fence
Author: Dean Henry Alford, 1810-1871 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #353 (1917) Topics: The Church and the Kingdom of God Social Service Lyrics: 1 Speak thou the truth: let others fence,
And trim their words for pay;
In pleasant sunshine of pretence
Let others bask their day.
2 Show thou thy light: if conscience gleam,
Set not thy bushel down;
The smallest spark may send his beam
O'er hamlet, tower, and town.
3 Hold on, hold on thou hast the rock;
The foes are on the sand:
The first world-tempest's ruthless shock
Scatters their shifting strand;
4 While each wild gust the mist shall clear
We now see darkly through,
And justified at last appear
The true, in Him that's true. Languages: English Tune Title: FAITH
Speak thou the truth: let others fence
Workman of God, O lose not heart
Author: Dr. F. W. Faber, 1814-1863 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #355 (1917) Topics: The Church and the Kingdom of God Social Service Lyrics: 1 Workman of God, O lose not heart,
But learn what God is like;
And in the darkest battle-field
Thou shalt know where to strike.
2 Thrice blest is he to whom is given
The instinct that can tell
That God is on the field when He
Is most invisible.
3 Then learn to scorn the praise of man,
And learn to lose with God;
For Jesus won the world through shame,
And beckons thee His road.
4 For right is right, since God is God,
And right the day must win;
To doubt would be disloyalty,
To falter would be sin. Languages: English Tune Title: NOX PRAECESSIT
Workman of God, O lose not heart
