HE^HYMNAL fthe REFORMED CHURCH [TURGY / (. OCT 13 1822 Division Q » Section a r? 1^^ PREFACE The General Synod of the Reformed Church in the United States, at its meeting in 191 1 at Canton, Ohio, appointed a committee to prepare a new Hymnal. The Committee, as one of its earliest acts, decided to invite the Reformed Church in America to join them in the work. This invitation conveyed to their General Synod in 19 12 was accepted and a committee of three was appointed, and afterwards enlarged to seven members. These two committees, diligently working together, have prepared "The Hymnal of the Reformed Church" for use in both denominations. The completed work was submitted to both General Synods in 1917 and was adopted by them. It has been the especial aim of the Hymnal Committee in presenting this book to the congregations of the Reformed Churches to provide a hymnal that would be acceptable and useful to all elements in both denominations. In the selection of tunes it has been our purpose in determining their range and degree of difficulty to prepare a hymnal for congregational singing, and where desirable to suggest an alternate, simpler tune. Tunes have been sought with pleasing, yet dignified melody, and with rich harmony. Atten- tion is also called to the chants where the accented, prolonged syllable is printed in heavier type. Our purpose has been to lead congregations in every way possible into a more heartfelt worship in all Church services, and a more general participation in congregational singing. The Committee desires to express cordial thanks to the following authors, composers and music publishers, who have without compensation kindly given us the privilege of using their hymns and tunes: The Century Company, Oliver Ditson and Company, Miss Alice Nevin, Rev. Charles Hutchins, Rev. Dr. Louis F. Benson, Rev. Dr. Henry Van Dyke, Professor Kurzen- knabe. Rev. Dr. J. H. Vincent, C. Harold Lowden, The Continent, The Publication and Sunday School Board, Central Publishing House, F. F. Bullard, and Rev. F. W. Bartlett. James I. Good, Ambrose M. Schmidt, Edward P. Johnson, Secretary Chairmen. COMMITTEES From the Reformed Church in the From the Reformed Church in United States America James I. Good Edward P. Johnson Ambrose M. Schmidt William P. Bruce Henry C.

And more graces for the good; There is mercy with the Saviour, There is healing in His blood. 3 For the love of God is broader Than the measure of man's mind, And the heart of the Eternal Is most wonderfully kind. But we make His love too narrow By false limits of our own, And we magnify His strictness With a zeal He will not own. There is plentiful redemption In the blood that has been shed; There is joy for all the members In the sorrows of their Head. If our love were but more simple. We would take Him at His word. And our lives would be all sunshine In the sweetness of our Lord. — - - Frederick W. Faber, 1854 Repent ance 257 ST. HILDA 7. 6. 7. 6. D. Justin H.

Is thy burden hard and heavy? Do thy steps drag wearily? Help to bear thy brother's burden, God will bear both it and thee. 3 Numb and weary on the mountains, Would'st thou sleep amidst the snow? Chafe that frozen form beside thee. And together both shall glow. Art thou stricken in life's battle? Many wounded round thee moan; Lavish on their wounds thy balsams. And that balm shall heal thine own. Is the heart a well left empty ? None but God its void can fill; Nothing but a ceaseless Fountain Can its ceaseless longings still. Is the heart a living power? Self-entwined, its strength sinks low; It can only live in loving, And by serving love will grow. Elizabeth Charles The Kingdom of God 473 DAY OF REST 7. 6. 7. 6. D. James W. Elliott. 1874 J .

Sons of labor, go to Jesus In your sorrow, shame, and loss; He is nearest, you are dearest When you bravely bear His cross; Go to Him, who died to save you. And is still the sinner's Friend, And the great love which forgave you Will forgive you to the end. 5 Sons of labor, live for Jesus, Be your work your worship too; In His name, and to His glory.

(No. 528 ) Our country's voice is pleading, Ye men of God, arise! His providence is leading. The land before you lies; Day-gleams are o'er it brightening, And promise clothes the soil; Wide fields, for harvest whitening, Invite the reaper's toil. Go where the waves are breaking On California's shore, Christ's precious gospel taking. More rich than golden ore; On Alleghany's mountains, Through all the western vale, Beside Missouri's fountains. Rehearse the wondrous tale. The love of Christ unfolding, Speed on from east to west, Till all, His cross beholding, In Him are fully blessed. Great Author of salvation.
