Lord of the living harvest

Author: John Samuel Bewley Monsell Hymnal: Common Service Book of the Lutheran Church #211 (1917) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 Lord of the living harvest That whitens o'er the plain, Where angels soon shall gather Their sheaves of golden grain, Accept these hands to labor, These hearts to trust and love, And deign with them to hasten Thy kingdom from above. 2 As laborers in Thy vineyard, Lord, send them out to be, Content to bear the burden Of weary days for Thee; To ask no other wages, When Thou shalt call them home, But to have shared the travail Which makes Thy kingdom come. 3 Be with them, God the Father! Be with them, God the Son! And God the Holy Spirit! Most blessèd Three in One! Make them a holy priesthood, Thee humbly to adore, And fill them with Thy fulness, Both now and evermore. Amen.

The hours of day are over

Author: John Ellerton Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #26 (1899) Lyrics: 1 The hours of day are over, The evening calls us home; Once more to Thee, O Father, With thankful hearts we come; For all Thy countless blessings We praise Thy holy name, And own Thy love unchanging, Thro' days and years the same. 2 For this, O Lord, we bless Thee, For this, we thank Thee most, The cleansing of the sinful, The saving of the lost; The Teacher ever present, The Friend for ever nigh, The home prepared by Jesus For us above the sky. 3 Lord, gather all Thy children To meet Thee there at last, When earthly tasks are ended, And earthly days are past; With all our dear ones round us In that eternal home, Where death no more shall part us, And night shall never come!
