Lord, pour Thy Spirit from on high

Thou say'st, Take up thy cross

Author: Francis T. Palgrave Hymnal: The Hymnal #246 (1916) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Ember Days and Ordination Lyrics: Thou say'st, "Take up thy cross, O man, and follow me"; The night is black, the feet are slack, Yet we would follow thee. But, O dear Lord, we cry, That we thy face could see, Thy blessèd face one moment's space, Then might we follow thee! Dim tracts of time divide Those golden days from me; Thy voice comes strange o'er years of change; How can I follow thee? Comes faint and far thy voice From vales of Galilee; Thy vision fades in ancient shades; How should we follow thee? O heavy cross: of faith In what we cannot see! As once of yore thyself restore, And help to follow thee. If not as once thou cam'st In true humanity, Come yet as guest within the breast That burns to follow thee. Within our heart of hearts In nearest nearness be: Set up thy throne within thine own: Go, Lord; we follow thee. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. BRIDE

On Jordan's bank the Baptist's cry

Author: Charles Coffin; John Chandler Hymnal: The Hymnal #282 (1916) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Ember Days and Ordination Lyrics: On Jordan's bank the Baptist's cry Announces that the Lord is nigh; Awake and hearken, for he brings Glad tidings of the King of kings. Then cleansed be every Christian breast, And furnished for so great a guest; Yea, let us each our hearts prepare For Christ to come and enter there. For thou art our salvation, Lord, Our refuge and our great reward; Without thy grace we waste away, Like flowers that wither and decay. To heal the sick stretch out thine hand, And bid the fallen sinner stand; Once more upon thy people shine, And fill the world with love divine. All praise, eternal Son, to thee, Whose Advent set thy people free; Whom with the Father we adore, And Holy Ghost for evermore. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: WINCHESTER NEW

Go, labour on! spend and be spent!

Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: The Hymnal #490 (1916) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Ember Days and Ordination Lyrics: Go, labour on! spend and be spent! Thy joy to do the Father's will; It is the way the Master went; Should not the servant tread it still? Go, labour on! 'tis not for naught; Thine earthly loss is heavenly gain; Men heed thee, love thee, praise thee not; The Master praises: what are men? Go, labour on! enough, while here, If he shall praise thee, if he deign The willing heart to mark and cheer: No toil for him shall be in vain. Go, labour on, while it is day! The world's dark night is hastening on: Speed, speed thy work! cast sloth away! It is not thus that souls are won. 447 Toil on! faint not! keep watch, and pray! Be wise the erring soul to win! Go forth into the world's highway! Compel the wanderer to come in! Toil on, and in thy toil rejoice! For toil comes rest, for exile home; Soon shalt thou hear the Bridegroom's voice, The midnight peal, "Behold, I come!" Languages: English Tune Title: ANGEL'S SONG
