Speed Thy servants, Saviour, speed them

Author: Rev. Thomas Kelly 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 #264 (1894) Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Lyrics: 1 Speed Thy servants, Saviour, speed them; Thou art Lord of winds and waves, They were bound, but Thou hast freed them; Now they go to free the slaves; Be Thou with them: 'Tis Thine arm alone that saves. 2 Friends and home and all forsaking, Lord, they go at Thy command, As their stay Thy promise taking, While they traverse sea and land: Oh, be with them! Lead them safely by the hand. 3 When they reach the land of strangers, And the prospect dark appears, Nothing seen but toils and dangers, Nothing felt but doubts and fears, Be Thou with them; Hear their sighs, and count their tears. 4 Where no fruit appears to cheer them, And they seem to toil in vain: Then in mercy, Lord, draw near them, Then their sinking hopes sustain: Thus supported, Let their zeal revive again. 5 In the midst of opposition, Let them trust, O Lord, in Thee; When success attends their mission, Let Thy servants humbler be; Never leave them, Till Thy face in heaven they see: 6 There to reap in joy forever Fruit that grows from seed here sown; There to be with Him, Who never Ceases to preserve His own; And with gladness Give the praise to Him alone. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: [Speed Thy servants, Saviour, speed them]

O be joyful, every nation

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Sacred Poems and Hymns #269 (1854) Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Lyrics: O be joyful, every nation! Hail the day with sacred mirth, When the trumpet of salvation Sounds the jubilee of earth, And creation Travails with the world's new birth. Then the north, in darkness shrouded, Jacob's rising star shall bless; And the eastern morn, unclouded, Bring the sun of righteousness, Cheering, healing, Sin-sick souls in heart's distress. 281 Then her swarthy sons and daughters, Afric to the Cross shall bring; And the angel of the waters Hear His coral islands sing, "Hallelujah!" Till the whole Pacific ring. O thou everlasting Father, Give the kingdoms to Thy Son; He hath died that He might gather All God's children into one; For the travail Of His soul, let this be done! Yea, it must be:--Thou hast spoken, And Thy covenant shall last; Though the arch of heaven were broken, And the earth's foundations cast Down the abysses; Yet Thy word, O God! stands fast. On Thy holy hill of Zion, Hast Thou not ordained His seat? Now, as Judah's conquering lion, Lay all foes beneath His feet, Till His armies In eternal triumph meet. We have join'd their marching legions, Where our fathers fought, we fight; Slavery's cane-lands, Brama's regions, Are exulting at the sight; Freedom, freedom, Comes with Gospel-life and light. 282 All the languages of Babel, Weapons for the warfare yield; And with these we well are able, By Thy Spirit's might, to wield In the battle, Truth's safe guard, and Faith's strong shield. Thus, through fifty years victorious, Thou hast led our brethren on; Arm them now for deeds more glorious, Till the latest field is won: And all people Bow the knee, and kiss the Son.

On the Mountain's Top Appearing

Author: Thomas Kelly Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #269 (1926) Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Lyrics: 1 On the mountain's top appearing, Lo! the sacred herald stands, Welcome news to Zion bearing, Zion long in hostile lands. Mourning captive, God Himself shall loose thy bands, 2 Has thy night been long and mournful? Have thy friends unfaithful proved? Have thy foes been proud and scornful, By thy sighs and tears unmoved? Cease thy mourning; Zion still is well beloved. 3 God, thy God, will now restore thee; He Himself appears thy Friend; All thy foes shall flee before thee; Here their boasts and triumphs end: Great deliverance Zion's King will surely send. 4 Enemies no more shall trouble; All thy wrongs shall be redressed: For thy loss thou shalt have double, In thy Maker's favor blest: All thy conflicts End in everlasting rest. Amen. Topics: The Church General; Zion, the Church Scripture: Isaiah 52:7 Languages: English Tune Title: ORIENT MORNING
