Christ, You Call Us All to Service
Author: Joy F. Patterson Hymnal: Celebrating Grace Hymnal #649 (2010) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Calling-to Service Lyrics: 1 Christ, You call us all to service,
call us all who follow You;
plant in us a deep commitment
all Your work and will to do.
Fire a passion for Your justice,
in us kindle love of peace;
help us heal the brokenhearted,
to the captive bring release.
2 Teach us how to work together,
brothers, sisters, side by side;
equal partners in the struggle,
in the cause of truth allied.
To each one some gift is given,
man or woman, young or old;
help us use each skill and talent
Your great purpose to unfold.
3 Let us be a servant people,
reconciling, ending strife;
seeking ways more just of sharing
and of ordering human life.
Fill us with a glowing vision
of this world as it should be;
send us forth to change that vision
into blest reality. Languages: English Tune Title: IN BABILONE
Christ, You Call Us All to Service
Hark, the voice of Jesus calling
Author: Dr. D. March, 1816- Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #400 (1917) Topics: Call To Service Lyrics: 1 Hark, the voice of Jesus calling,
"Who will go and work to-day?
Fields are white, and harvests waiting,
Who will bear the sheaves away?"
Loud and long the Master calleth,
Rich reward He offers free;
Who will answer, gladly saying,
"Here am I, O Lord, send me"?
2 If you cannot cross the ocean,
And the heathen lands explore,
You can find the heathen nearer,
You can help them at your door;
If you cannot give your thousands,
You can give the widow's mite,
And the least you give for Jesus
Will be precious in His sight.
3 If you cannot be the watchman
Standing high on Zion's wall,
Pointing out the path to heaven,
Offering life and peace to all,
With your prayers and with your bounties
You can do what Heaven demands;
You can be like faithful Aaron
Holding up the prophet's hands.
4 Let none hear you idly saying,
"There is nothing I can do,"
While the souls of men 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 calleth,
"Here am I, O Lord, send me." Languages: English Tune Title: LUX EOI
Hark, the voice of Jesus calling
Listen! the Master beseecheth
Author: Dr. W. M. Punshon, 1824-1881 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #405 (1917) Topics: Call To Service Lyrics: 1 Listen! the Master beseecheth,
Calling each one by his name;
His voice to each loving heart reacheth,
Its cheerfullest service to claim.
Go where the vineyard demandeth
Vinedressers' nurture and care;
Or go where the white harvest standeth,
The joy of the reaper to share.
2 Seek those of evil behaviour,
Bid them their lives to amend;
Go, point the lost world to the Saviour,
And be to the friendless a friend.
Still be the lone heart of anguish,
Soothed by the pity of thine;
By waysides, if wounded ones languish
Go, pour in the oil and the wine.
3 Work for the good that is nighest,
Dream not of greatness afar;
That glory is ever the highest
Which shines upon men as they are.
Work, though the world may defeat you,
Heed not its slander and scorn;
Nor weary till angels shall greet you
With smiles through the gates of the morn.
4 Offer thy life on the altar,
In the high purpose be strong;
And if the tired spirit should falter,
Then sweeten thy labour with song.
What if the poor heart complaineth
Soon shall its wailing be o'er;
For there, in the rest that remaineth,
It shall grieve and be weary no more. Languages: English Tune Title: SANDERS
Listen! the Master beseecheth

The Master Has Come
Author: Sarah Doudney Hymnal: Celebrating Grace Hymnal #485 (2010) Meter: 12.11.12.11 D Topics: Calling-to Service First Line: The Master has come, and He calls us to follow Lyrics: 1 The Master has come, and He calls us to follow
the track of the footprints He leaves on our way;
far over the mountain and through the deep hollow,
the path leads us on to the mansions of day:
the Master has called us, the children who fear Him,
who march 'neath Christ's banner, His own little band;
we love Him and seek Him, we long to be near Him,
and rest in the light of His beautiful land.
2 The Master has called us; the road may be dreary,
and dangers and sorrows are strewn on the track;
but God's Holy Spirit shall comfort the weary;
we follow the Savior and cannot turn back;
The Master has called us: though doubt and temptation
may compass our journey, we cheerfully sing:
"press onward, look upward," thru much tribulation;
the children of Zion must follow their King.
3 The Master has called us, in life's early morning,
with spirits as fresh as the dew on the sod:
we turn from the world, with its smiles and its scorning,
to cast in our lot with the people of God:
the Master has called us, His sons and His daughters,
We plead for His blessing and trust in His love;
and thru the green pastures, beside the still waters,
He'll lead us at last to His kingdom above.

It May Not Be Our Lot to Wield
Author: John G Whittier, 1807-1892 Hymnal: The A.M.E. Zion Hymnal #437 (1999) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Call to Service Lyrics: 1 It may not be our lot to wield
The sickle in the ripened field;
Nor ours to hear, on summer eves,
The reaper's song among the sheaves.
2 Yet where our duty's task is wrought
In unison with God's great thought,
The near and future blend in one,
And whatsoe'er is willed, is done.
3 And ours the grateful service whence
Comes, day by day, the recompense;
The hope, the trust, the purpose stayed,
The fountain, and the noonday shade.
4 And were this life the utmost span,
The only end and aim of man,
Better the toil of fields like these
Than waking dream and slothful ease.
5 But life, though falling like our grain,
Like that revives and springs again;
And, early called, how blest are they
Who wait in heaven their harvest day!
AMEN. Languages: English Tune Title: ABENDS

Ye soldiers of the cross;
Lift high His royal banner,
It must not suffer loss;
From victory unto victory
His army shall He lead,
Till every foe is vanquished,
And Christ is Lord indeed.
2 Stand up, stand up for Jesus!
The trumpet call obey;
Forth to the mighty conflict,
In this His glorious day:
Ye that are men, now serve Him,
Against unnumbered foes;
Your courage rise with danger,
And strength to strength oppose.
3 Stand up, stand up for Jesus!
Stand in His strength alone;
The arm to flesh will fail you;
Ye dare not trust your own;
Put on the gospel armor,
Each piece put on with prayer;
Where duty calls, or danger,
Be never wanting there.
4 Stand up, stand up for Jesus!
The strife will not be long;
This day the noise of battle,
The next the victor's song;
To him that overcometh,
A crown of life shall be;
He with the King of glory
Shall reign eternally.
AMEN. Languages: English Tune Title: WEBB
