Hymns of the Living Church

Forth in Thy Name, O Lord, I Go

Church Triumphant L. M.

JAMES WILLIAM ELLIOTT

1. Forth in Thy name, O Lord, I go, My daily labor to pur-sue,

0:4 4

Thee, only Thee, re-solved to know, In all I think, or speak, or do. A-men.

2

The task Thy wisdom hath assigned

O let me cheerfully fulfil;

In all my works Thy presence find,

And prove Thy good and perfect will.

3

Thee may I set at my right hand,

Whose eyes mine inmost substance see,

And labor on at Thy command,

And offer all my works to Thee.

4

Give me to bear Thy easy yoke,

And every moment watch and pray;

And still to things eternal look,

And hasten to Thy glorious day.

5

Fain would I still for Thee employ

Whate'er Thy bounteous grace hath given,

And run my course with even joy,

And closely walk with Thee to heaven. Amen.

New Every Morning is the Love

Melcombe L. M.

SAMUEL WEBBE

1. New ev'ry morning is the love Our wakening and

up rising prove;

4

Through sleep and dark-ness safe-ly brought, Restored to life, and power, and thought. A-men.

2

New mercies, each returning day,
Hover around us while we pray;

New perils past, new sins forgiven,

New thoughts of God, new hopes of heaven.

3

If on our daily course our mind

Be set to hallow all we find,

New treasures still, of countless price,

God will provide for sacrifice.

4

The trivial round, the common task,
Will furnish all we need to ask,
Room to deny ourselves, a road
To bring us daily nearer God.

5

Only, O Lord, in Thy dear love

Fit us for perfect rest above;

And help us, this and every day,

To live more nearly as we pray. Amen.

For Thy mercies, Lord, are sure; Thy com-pas-sion doth en- dure. A-men.

[blocks in formation]

As the morning light returns,
As the sun with splendor burns,
Teach us still to turn to Thee,

Ever blessed Trinity,

With our hands our hearts to raise,

In unfailing prayer and praise. Amen.
