O Son of God, our Captian of salvation

Author: Rev. J. Ellerton Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #161 (1894) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Topics: Lay Helpers First Line: O Son of God, our Captain of salvation Lyrics: 1 O Son of God, our Captain of salvation, Thyself by suffering schooled to human grief, We bless Thee for Thy sons of consolation, Who follow in the steps of Thee their Chief; 2 Those whom Thy Spirit's dread vocation severs, To lead the vanguard of Thy conquering host; Whose toilsome years are spent in brave endeavors To bear Thy saving Name from coast to coast; 3 Those whose bright faith makes feeble hearts grow stronger, And sends fresh warriors to the great campaign, Bids the lone convert feel estranged no longer, And wins the sundered to be one again; 4 And all true helpers, patient, kind, and skilful, Who shed Thy light across our darkened earth, Counsel the doubting, and restrain the wilful, Soothe the sick bed, and share the children's mirth. 5 Such was Thy Levite, strong in self-oblation To cast his all at Thine Apostles' feet; He whose new name, through every Christian nation From age to age our thankful strains repeat. 6 Thus, Lord, Thy Barnabas in memory keeping, Still be Thy Church's watchword, "Comfort ye;" Till in our Father's house shall end our weeping, And all our wants be satisfied in Thee. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: [O Son of God, our Captain of Salvation]

Jesus calls us; o'er the tumult

Author: C. F. Alexander Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #143 (1898) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Topics: Lay Helpers Lyrics: 1 Jesus calls us; o'er the tumult Of our life's wild, restless sea, Day by day His sweet voice soundeth, Saying, "Christian, follow Me;" 2 As of old, Saint Andrew heard it By the Galilean lake, Turned from home, and toil, and kindred, Leaving all for His dear sake. 3 Jesus calls us from the worship Of the vain world's golden store; From each idol that would keep us, Saying, "Christian, love Me more." 4 In our joys and in our sorrows, Days of toil and hours of ease, Still He calls, in cares and pleasures, "That we love Him more than these." 5 Jesus calls us: by Thy mercies, Saviour, may we hear Thy call, Give our hearts to Thine obedience, Serve and love Thee best of all. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: GALILEE

The Son of consolation!

Of Levi's priestly line, Filled with the Holy Spirit And fervent faith divine, With lowly self-oblation, For Christ an offering meet, He laid his earthly riches At the Apostles' feet. 2 The son of Consolation! Oh, name of soothing balm! It fell on sick and weary Like breath of heaven's own calm! And the blest son of comfort, With fearless, loving hand, The Gentiles' great Apostle Led to the faithful band. 3 The son of Consolation! Drawn near unto his Lord, He won the martyr's glory, And passed to his reward. With him is faith now ended, Forever lost in sight, But love, made perfect, fills him With praise, and joy, and light. 4 The son of Consolation! Lord, hear our humble prayer, That each of us Thy children Such blessèd name may bear! That we, sweet comfort shedding O'er homes of pain and woe, Midst sickness and in prisons, May seek Thee here below. 5 The sons of Consolation! Oh, what the bliss will be, When Christ the King shall tell them "Ye did it unto Me!" The merciful and loving The Lord of life shall own, And as His priceless jewels Shall set them round His throne. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: [The Son of Consolation]
