Your kingdom shall increase till all the world your glory see, and righteousness abound as the great deep profound, and fill the earth with purity.

How Clear Is Our Vocation, Lord

Author: Fred Pratt Green Meter: 8.6.8.8.6.6 Appears in 19 hymnals Scripture: Romans 6:1-4 Lyrics: 1 How clear is our vocation, Lord, when once we heed your call: to live according to your word, and daily learn, refreshed, restored, that you are Lord of all, and will not let us fall. 2 But if, forgetful, we should find your yoke is hard to bear; if worldly pressures fray the mind, and love itself cannot unwind its tangled skein of care: our inward life repair. 3 We marvel how your saints become in hindrances more sure; whose joyful virtues put to shame the casual way we wear your name, and by our faults obscure your power to cleanse and cure. 4 In what you give us, Lord, to do, together or alone, in old routines and ventures new may we not cease to look to you, the cross you hung upon– all you endeavored done.

Ever in his footsteps treading, body here, yet soul above, full of faith and hope and love, let us do the Father's bidding. Faithful Lord, abide with me; Savior, lead; I follow thee. 2 Let us suffer here with Jesus, to his image e'er conform; heaven's glory soon will please us, sunshine follow on the storm. Though we sow in tears of sorrow, we shall reap in heav'nly joy, and the fears that now annoy shall be laughter on the morrow. Christ, I suffer here with thee; there, O share thy joy with me. 3 Let us also die with Jesus; his death from the second death, from our soul's destruction, frees us, quickens us with life's glad breath. Let us mortify, while living, flesh and blood and die to sin, and the grave that shuts us in shall but prove the gate to heaven. Jesus, here I die to thee, there to live eternally. 4 Let us gladly live with Jesus; since he's risen from the dead, death and grave must soon release us. Jesus, thou art now our head. We are truly thine own members, where thou livest, there live we; take and own us constantly, faithful Friend, as thy dear brethren. Jesus, here I live to thee, also there eternally.
