The Hymn of the Month:
"Hark, the Voice of Jesus Calling"
Author: Daniel March, 1816-1909
Tune: Galilean
Lutheran Worship #318 (Also TLH #496)

1.   Hark, the voice of Jesus calling, "Who will go and work today? Fields are white and harvests waiting, Who will bear the sheaves away?" Loud and long the master calls you; Rich reward he offers free. Who will answer, gladly saying, "Here am I. Send me, send me"?

2.   If you cannot speak like angels, If you cannot preach like Paul, You can tell the love of Jesus; You can say he died for all. If you cannot rouse the wicked, with the judgment’s dread alarms. You can lead the little children, to the Savior’s waiting arms.

3.   If you cannot be a watchman, Standing high on Zion’s wall; Pointing out the path to heaven, Offering life and peace to all. With your prayers and with your bounties, You can do what God demands; You can be life faithful Aaron, Holding up the prophet’s hands.

4.   Let none hear you idly saying, "There is nothing I can do;" While the multitudes are dying, And the master calls for you. Take the task he gives you gladly; Let his work your pleasure be. Answer quickly when he calls you, "Here am I. Send me, send me!"
The Prayer of the Month:
Please also include a prayer for God to grant us rain.

Lord of all power and might, Author and Giver of all good things, graft into our hearts the love of Your Name, increase in us true religion, nourish us with Your Goodness, and bring forth in us the fruit of good works. Through Jesus Christ, Your Son, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. AMEN!
