How Shall They Hear the Word of God

Author: Michael Perry Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.8 Appears in 15 hymnals Lyrics: 1 How shall they hear the word of God unless the truth is told? How shall the sinful be set free, the sorrowful consoled? To all who speak the truth today, impart your Spirit, Lord, we pray. 2 How shall they call to God for help unless they have believed? How shall the poor be given hope, the prisoner reprieved? To those who help the blind to see, give light and love and clarity. 3 How shall the gospel be proclaimed that sinners may repent? How shall the world find peace at last if heralds are not sent? So send us, Lord, for we rejoice to speak of Christ with life and voice.

Who Keepeth Not God's Word

Author: Christian F. Gellert; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: Who keepeth not God's Word, yet saith Lyrics: 1. Who keepeth not God’s Word, yet saith, I know the Lord, is wrong; In him is not that blessèd faith Through which the truth is strong; But he who hears and keeps the Word, Is not of this world, but of God. 2. The faith His Word hath caused to shine Will kindle love in thee; More wouldst thou know of things divine, Deeper thy love must be; True faith not only gives thee light, But strength to love and do the right. 3. Jesus hath washed away our sin, And we are children now; Who feels such hope as this within, To evil cannot bow; Rather with Christ all scorn endure, So we be like our maker pure! 4. For he doth please the Father well Who simply can obey; In him the love of God doth dwell Who steadfast keeps His way; A daily active life of love, Such fruits a living faith must prove. 5. He is in God, and God in him, Who still abides in love; ’Tis love that makes the cherubim Obey and praise above; For God is love, the loveless heart Hath in His life and joy no part.

Though Rude Winds Usher Thee, Sweet Day

Author: Samuel Rickards Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Though rude winds usher thee, sweet day, Though clouds thy face deform, Though nature’s grace be swept away Before thy sleety storm; E’en in thy sombrest wintry vest, Of blessèd days thou art most blest. 2 Not frigid air nor gloomy morn Shall check our jubilee; Bright is the day when Christ was born; No sun need shine, but He: Let roughest storms their coldest blow, With love of Him our hearts shall glow. 3 Inspired with high and holy thought, Fancy is on the wing; It seems as to mine ear it brought Those voices caroling, Voices through Heav’n and earth that ran, Glory to God, goodwill to man. 4 I see the shepherds gazing wild At those fair spirits of light; I see them bending o’er the Child With that untold delight Which marks the face who view Things but too happy to be true. 5 There in the lowly manger laid Incarnate God they see; He stoops to take through spotless maid Our frail humanity; Son of high God, creation’s heir, He leaves His Heaven to raise us here. 6 Through Him, O Lord, we’re born anew, Thy children once again, Oh, day by day, our hearts renew, That Thine we may remain, And, angel-like, may all agree, One sweet and holy family. 7 Oft as this joyous morn doth come To speak our Savior’s love, Oh, may it bear our spirits home Where He now reigns above; That day which brought Him from the skies So man restores to paradise. 8 Then let winds usher thee, sweet day, Let clouds thy face deform, Though nature’s grace is swept away Before thy sleety storm; E’en i thy sombrest wintry vest, Of blessèd days thou art most blest.
