Jesus, immortal King, arise

Author: A. C. H. Seymour, 1789-1870 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #272b (1917) Topics: The Church and the Kingdom of God Missions Lyrics: 1 Jesus, immortal King, arise; Assert Thy rightful away, Till earth, subdued, its tribute brings, And distant lands obey. 2 Ride forth, victorious Conqueror, ride, Till all Thy foes submit, And all the powers of hell resign Their trophies at Thy feet. 3 Send forth Thy word, and let it fly The spacious earth around, Till every soul beneath the sky Shall hear the joyful sound. 4 O may the great Redeemer's name Through very clime be known! And heathen gods, forsaken, fall, And Jesus reign alone. 5 From sea to sea, from shore to shore, Be Thou, O Christ, adored! And earth, with all her millions, shout, Hosannas to the Lord.

From Greenland's icy mountains

Author: Bp. R. Heber, 1783-1826 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #280 (1917) Topics: The Church and the Kingdom of God Missions Lyrics: 1 From Greenland's icy mountains, From India's coral strand, Where Afric's sunny fountains Roll down their golden sand, From many as ancient river, From many a palmy plain, They call us to deliver Their land from error's chain. 2 What though the spicy breezes Blow soft o'er Ceylon's isle, Though every prospect pleases, And only man is vile! In vain with lavish kindness The gifts of God are strewn; The heathen in his blindness Bows down to wood and stone. 3 Shall we, whose souls are lighted With wisdom from on high, Shall we to men benighted The lamp of life deny? Salvation! O salvation! The joyful sound proclaim, Till earth's remotest nation Has learnt Messiah's name. 4 Waft, waft, ye winds, His story, And you, ye waters, roll, Till, like a sea of glory, It spreads from pole to pole; Till o'er our ransomed nature, The Lamb for sinners slain, Redeemer, King, Creator, In bliss returns to reign.

The morning light is breaking

Author: Dr. S. F. Smith, 1808-1895 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #285 (1917) Topics: The Church and the Kingdom of God Missions Lyrics: 1 The morning light is breaking; The darkness disappears; The sons of earth are waking To penitential tears. Each breeze that sweeps the ocean Brings tidings from afar, Of nations in commotion, Prepared for Zion's war. 2 See heathen nations bending Before the God we love, And thousand hearts ascending In gratitude above; While sinners, now confessing, The gospel call obey, And seek the Saviour's blessing, A nation in a day. 3 Blest river of salvation, Pursue thine onward way; Flow thou to every nation, Nor in thy richness stay; Stay not till all the lowly Triumphant reach their home; Stay not till all the holy Proclaim, "The Lord is come!"

Saviour, sprinkle many nations

Author: Bp. A. C. Coxe, 1818-1896 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #294 (1917) Topics: The Church and the Kingdom of God Missions Lyrics: 1 Saviour, sprinkle many nations, Fruitful let Thy sorrows be; By Thy pains and consolations Draw the Gentiles unto Thee; Of Thy cross the wondrous story Be to all the nations told; Let them see Thee in Thy glory, And Thy mercy manifold. 2 Far and wide, though all unknowing, Yearns for Thee each mortal breast; Human tears for Thee are flowing, Human hearts in Thee would rest; Thirsting, as for dews of even, As the new-mown grass for rain, Thee they seek, as God of heaven, Thee, as man for sinners slain. 3 Saviour, lo! the isles are waiting, Stretched the hand and strained the sight, For Thy Spirit, new creating, Love's pure flame, and wisdom's light; Give the Word and of the preacher Speed the foot, and touch the tongue, Till on earth by every creature Glory to the Lamb be sung.

I cannot stay; My heart I yield without delay: Vain world, farewell, from thee I part; The voice of God hath reached my heart. Languages: English Tune Title: HAMBURG
