Hymn 785. Now the laborer’s task is over.

1:

Now the labourer’s task is o’er,

Now the battle-day is past:

Now upon the farther shore

Lands the voyager at last,

Father, in Thy gracious keeping

Leave we now Thy servant Sleeping

2:

There the tears of earth are dried:

There its hidden things are clear:

There the work of life is tried

By a juster Judge than here.

3:

There the Shepherd, bringing

Home Many lamb forlorn and stray’d

Shelters each, no more to roam,

Where the wolf can ne’er invade,

4:

There the penitents who turn

To the cross their dying eyes

All the love of Jesus learn

At His feet in paradise.

5:

There no more the pow’rs of hell

Can prevail to mar their peace

Christ the Lord shall guard them well,

He who died for their release.

6:

Earth to earth, and dust to dust!

Calmly now the words we say;

Let behind, we wait in trust

For the resurrection day.

Salvation Prayers

If you don’t Know Jesus as your personal Lord and Saviour and would like to accept him into your life as your personal Lord and Saviour, Please say this prayer:

Father, I know that I have broken your laws and my sins have separated me from You. I am truly sorry, and now I want to turn away from my past sinful life toward You. Please forgive me, and help me avoid sinning again. I believe that Your son, Jesus Christ died for my sins, was resurrected from the dead, is alive, and hears my prayer. I invite Jesus to become the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart from this day forward. Please send Your Holy Spirit to help me obey You, and to do Your Will for the rest of my life. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.
