We build our school on Thee, O Lord

Author: Sebastian W. Meyer Hymnal: The Hymnal #366 (1916) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Sunday Schools Sunday Morning Lyrics: We build our school on thee, O Lord, To thee we bring our common need; The loving heart, the helpful word, The tender thought, the kindly deed. 333 We work together in thy sight, We live together in thy love; Guide thou our faltering steps aright, And lift our thought to heaven above. Hold thou each hand to keep it just, Touch thou our lips and make them pure; If thou art with us, Lord, we must Be faithful friends and comrades sure. We change, but thou art still the same, The same good Master, Teacher, Friend; We change; but, Lord, we bear thy Name, To journey with it to the end. Amen. (Land of our birth, we pledge to thee Our love and toil in the years to be, When we are grown and take our place As men and women with our race.) Languages: English Tune Title: SEFTON

Hasten the time appointed

Author: Jane Borthwick Hymnal: The Hymnal #477 (1916) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Sunday Schools Advent; Sunday Schools Missions; Sunday Schools Epiphanytide Lyrics: Hasten the time appointed, By prophets long foretold, When all shall dwell together, One Shepherd and one fold. Let every idol perish, To moles and bats be thrown, And every prayer be offered To God in Christ alone. Let Jew and Gentile, meeting From many a distant shore Around one altar kneeling, One common Lord adore. Let all that now divides us Remove and pass away, Like shadows of the morning Before the blaze of day. Let all that now unites us More sweet and lasting prove, A closer bond of union, In a blest land of love. Let war be learned no longer, Let strife and tumult cease, All earth his blessed kingdom, The Lord and Prince of Peace. O long-expected dawning, Come with thy cheering ray! When shall the morning brighten, The shadows flee away? O sweet anticipation! It cheers the watchers on To pray, and hope, and labour, Till the dark night be gone.

Author: Samuel F. Smith Hymnal: The Hymnal #479 (1916) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Sunday Schools Missions; Sunday Schools Epiphanytide; Sunday Schools General Use Lyrics: The morning light is breaking; The darkness disappears; The sons of earth are waking To penitential tears; 437 Each breeze that sweeps the ocean Brings tidings from afar, Of nations in commotion, Prepared for Sion's war. 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 Savior's blessing, A nation in a day. Blest river of salvation! Pursue thy 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!"
