Jesus, I My Cross Have Taken
Author: Henry F. Lyte Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1,304 hymnals Topics: Consecration and Obedience Lyrics: 1 Jesus, I my cross have taken,
all to leave and follow thee;
destitute, despised, forsaken,
thou from hence my all shalt be.
Perish ev'ry fond ambition,
all I've sought or hoped or known;
yet how rich is my condition,
God and heav'n are still my own.
2 Let the world despise and leave me,
they have left my Savior too;
human hearts and looks deceive me;
thou art not, like man, untrue;
and, while thou shalt smile upon me,
God of wisdom, love, and might,
foes may hate and friends may shun me;
show thy face, and all is bright.
3 Man may trouble and distress me,
'twill but drive me to thy breast;
life with trials hard may press me,
heav'n will bring me sweeter rest.
O 'tis not in grief to harm me
while thy love is left to me;
O 'twere not in joy to charm me,
were that joy unmixed with thee.
4 Take, my soul, thy full salvation,
rise o'er sin and fear and care;
joy to find in ev'ry station
something still to do or bear;
think what Spirit dwells within thee,
what a Father's smile is thine,
what a Savior died to win thee:
child of heav'n, shouldst thou repine?
5 Hasten on from grace to glory,
armed by faith and winged by prayer;
heav'n's eternal day's before thee,
God's own hand shall guide thee there.
Soon shall close thy earthly mission,
swift shall pass thy pilgrim days;
hope soon change to glad fruition,
faith to sight, and prayer to praise. Scripture: Matthew 16:24 Used With Tune: ELLESDIE

Who will hearken to the Master’s call?
Who will offer love’s delightful service,
From the morning to the evenfall?

Who will gladly say,
Lord, here am I today?
Take me, blessed Lord, thy wondrous grace afford;

I’ll work for thee today?
Help me, Lord, I pray.

Ev’ry gift for him may we employ;
Sowing, reaping, gathering the harvest,
They who weep shall come again with joy. [Refrain]

Follow where his blessed footprints lead;
Lowly tasks shall glow with heav’nly beauty,
His rich grace supplying all our need. [Refrain]

Yield yourself his holy will to do;
Starry crowns, unfading crowns of glory,
Wait on high his servants good and true. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Who will come in faithful consecration]

Dear Lord, to thee I bring;
Tho’ paltry, weak, unworthy,
Accept my offering.

Accept my consecration!
O grant thy full salvation!
This very hour thy peace and pow’r
On me bestow.

Shall still be all thine own;
Thy glory, not my pleasure,
Shall govern me alone. [Chorus]
3 Thy tho’ts alone to cherish,
Thy blessed words to speak,
Thy life to live—what blessing
For one so prone and weak. [Chorus]
4 Accept my consecration,
I would not aught withhold;
Let thy will be my pleasure,
My home thine inner fold. [Chorus]

Daniel March
1816 - 1909 Person Name: Rev. Daniel March Topics: Consecration Author of "Hark! the Voice of Jesus" in Service Songs for Young People's Societies, Sunday Schools and Church Prayer Meetings March, Daniel, D.D., an American Congregational minister, b. July 21, 1816, has published Night Scenes in the Bible, and other works. His hymn "Hark, the voice of Jesus crying [calling]. Who will go," &c. (Missions), is given in the American Methodist Episcopal Hymnal, 1878, in 2 stanzas; in Sankey's Sacred Songs & Solos, 1878, in 6 stanzas; and in the Scottish Hymnal 1884, in 5 stanzas; in each case of 8 lines.

--John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology, Appendix, Part II (1907)
===============
March, D., p. 1578, ii. The following details concerning Dr. March's hymn, "Hark ! the voice of Jesus crying," have been furnished us by himself:—
"It was written at the impulse of the moment to follow a sermon I was to preach in Clinton St. Church to the Philadelphia Christian Association on the text Is. vi. 8. That was some time in 1868."
The original text in full is in The Hymnal, (Presb.), Phila., 1895, No. 361. Dr. March declines to accept the interpolations which have been made in this hymn. We must note also that the incident given in Brownlie's Hymns and Hymnwriters of the Church Hymnary (Scottish), p. 303, relative to this hymn and President Lincoln, is incorrect. It relates to Mrs. E. Gates's " If you cannot on the ocean," p. 1565, i. 5. [Rev. L. F. Benson, D.D.]

Ralph Vaughan Williams
1872 - 1958 Person Name: R. Vaughn Williams, 1872- Topics: Consecration and Service Arranger of "FOREST GREEN" in Christian Worship Through his composing, conducting, collecting, editing, and teaching, Ralph Vaughan Williams (b. Down Ampney, Gloucestershire, England, October 12, 1872; d. Westminster, London, England, August 26, 1958) became the chief figure in the realm of English music and church music in the first half of the twentieth century. His education included instruction at the Royal College of Music in London and Trinity College, Cambridge, as well as additional studies in Berlin and Paris. During World War I he served in the army medical corps in France. Vaughan Williams taught music at the Royal College of Music (1920-1940), conducted the Bach Choir in London (1920-1927), and directed the Leith Hill Music Festival in Dorking (1905-1953). A major influence in his life was the English folk song. A knowledgeable collector of folk songs, he was also a member of the Folksong Society and a supporter of the English Folk Dance Society. Vaughan Williams wrote various articles and books, including National Music (1935), and composed numerous arrangements of folk songs; many of his compositions show the impact of folk rhythms and melodic modes. His original compositions cover nearly all musical genres, from orchestral symphonies and concertos to choral works, from songs to operas, and from chamber music to music for films. Vaughan Williams's church music includes anthems; choral-orchestral works, such as Magnificat (1932), Dona Nobis Pacem (1936), and Hodie (1953); and hymn tune settings for organ. But most important to the history of hymnody, he was music editor of the most influential British hymnal at the beginning of the twentieth century, The English Hymnal (1906), and coeditor (with Martin Shaw) of Songs of Praise (1925, 1931) and the Oxford Book of Carols (1928).
