Hymnal: Voices of Praise #308 (1883) First Line: It is a day of gladness Lyrics: 1 It is a day of gladness,
When all our friendly band,
Christ's members, thus together,
In Him united stand;
Together lift our voices
To praise Him for His love,
And pray that we may worthy
Of all His mercies prove.
Chorus:
Haste forward, then, dear children,
Reach to the glorious prize,
The mark of our high calling.
The Crown above the skies.
2 In lowliness and meekness
May we from day to day
Still in our Master's Footsteps
Press on our heavenward way;
O make us, blessed Master,
Pure, even as Thou art pure,
And grant as faithful servants [Chorus]
3 Bright Angels hover round us,
And saints before the Throne
Make ceaseless intercession
That sin may be o'erthrown;
They, like to us once tempted,
The tempter overcame,
In strength of the Almighty, [Chorus]
4 Oh, joy within the vineyard
To labour for the Lord,
Joy on this happy feast day
To praise with one accord;
Joy of all joys the greatest
To hear Him say, "Well done!
Rest, good and faithful servant, [Chorus]
Amen. Topics: School Festivals Languages: English Tune Title: HAWKSLEY
