MySongbooksThe Australian Hymn Book
The Australian Hymn Book was published in 1977, and was the culmination of almost ten years' work by an ecumenical committee, chaired by A. Harold Wood, intent on producing a new, contemporary and inclusive hymn book that could be used in worship by the varied Christian congregations across Australia.

[1]
Ye servants of the Lord
each in his office wait,
observant of his heavenly word,
and watchful at his gate.
[2]
Let all your lamps be bright,
and trim the golden flame;
gird up your loins, as in his sight,
for aweful is his name.
[3]
Watch: 'tis your Lord's command,
and while we speak he's near;
mark the first signal of his hand,
and ready all appear.
[4]
O happy servant he
in such a posture found!
He shall his Lord with gladness see
and he with honour crowned.
[5]
Christ shall the banquet spread
with his own royal hand,
and raise that faithful servant's head
amid the angelic band.
