Hark, the Voice of Jesus Calling

Author: Daniel March Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 505 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Hark, the voice of Jesus calling, "Who will go and work today? Fields are white, and harvests waiting, Who will bear the sheaves away?" Loud and long the Master calls us, Rich reward He offers free; Who will answer, gladly saying, "Here am I, send me, send me"? 2. If you cannot cross the ocean, And the distant lands explore, You can find the lost around you, You can help them at your door. If you cannot give your thousands, You can give the widow's mite; What you truly give for Jesus Will be precious in His sight. 3. Let none hear you idly saying, "There is nothing I can do," While the lost of earth are dying, And the Master calls for you; Take the task He gives you gladly; Let His work your pleasure be; Answer quickly when He calls you, "Here am I, send me, send me."

Lord, Her Watch Thy Church Is Keeping

Author: Henry Downton Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 55 hymnals First Line: Lord, her watch Thy Church is keeping: Lyrics: 1. Lord, her watch Thy Church is keeping: When shall earth Thy rule obey? When shall end the night of weeping? When shall break the promised day? See the whitening harvest languish, Waiting still the laborers’ toil; Was it vain, Thy Son’s deep anguish? Shall the strong retain the spoil? 2. Tidings, sent to every creature, Millions yet have never heard: Can they hear without a preacher? Lord almighty, give the word! Give the word! in every nation Let the Gospel trumpet sound, Witnessing a world’s salvation, To the earth’s remotest bound. 3. Then the end! Thy Church completed, All Thy chosen gathered in, With their King in glory seated, Satan bound, and banished sin Gone for ever parting, weeping, Hunger, sorrow, death, and pain; Lo! her watch Thy Church is keeping; Come, Lord Jesus, come to reign!
