Fling out the banner! let it float
Once More the Liberal Year Laughs Out
Author: John Greenleaf Whittier Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 32 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Once more the liberal year laughs out
O'er richer stores than gems or gold;
Once more, with harvest-song and shout,
Is nature's bloodless triumph told.
2 O favors every year made new!
O blessings with the sunshine sent!
The bounty overruns our due,
The fullness shames our discontent.
3 We shut our eyes, the flowers bloom on;
We murmur, but the corn ears fill;
We choose the shadow, but the sun
That casts it, shines behind us still.
4 Now let these altars, wreathed with flowers
And piled with fruits, awake again
Thanksgiving for the golden hours,
The early and the latter rain.
Amen. Topics: Thanksgiving Used With Tune: MELANESIA

Send forth the Gospel
Author: The Rev. Preb. H. E. Fox Appears in 11 hymnals First Line: Send forth the Gospel! Let it run Lyrics: 1 Send forth the Gospel! Let it run
Southward and northward, east and west;
Tell all the earth Christ died and lives,
Who giveth pardon, life, and rest.
2 Send forth the Gospel Mighty Lord!
Out of this chaos bring to birth
Thine own creation’s promis’d hope—
The better days of heav’n on earth.
3 Send forth the Gospel, Gracious Lord!
Thine was the blood for sinners shed;
Thy voice still pleads in human hearts;
To Thee Thine other sheep be led.
4 Send forth the Gospel, Holy Lord!
Kindle in us love’s sacred flame—
Love giving all, and grudging naught
For Jesu’s sake—in Jesu’s name.
5 Send forth the Gospel Tell it out!
Go, brothers, at the Master’s call;
Prepare His way, who comes to reign,
The King of kings, and Lord of all.
