GRH 577 The Woman's Hymn

(1)
Come, women, wide proclaim
Life thro’ your Saviour slain;
Sing evermore.
Christ, God’s effulgence bright,
Christ, who arose in might,
Christ who crowns you with light,
Praise and adore.

(2)
Come, clasping children’s hands,
Sisters from many lands,
Teach to adore,
For the sin sick and worn,
The weak and over borne,
All who in darkness mourn,
Pray, work, yet more.

(3)
Work with your courage high,
Sing of the day break nigh,
Your love out pour.
Stars shall your brow adorn,
Your heart leap with the morn,
And by His love up borne,
Hope and adore.

(4)
Then when the garnered field
Shall to our Master yield
A bounteous store,
Christ, hope of all the meek,
Christ, whom all earth shall seek,
Christ, your reward shall speak,
Joy evermore.
