HYMNS

GLORIOUS THINGS OF THEE ARE SPOKEN

1. Glorious things of thee are spoken,

Zion, city of our God;

He whose word cannot be broken

Formed thee for His own abode:

On the Rock of Ages founded,

What can shake thy sure repose?

With salvation's walls surrounded,

Thou mayst smile at all thy foes.

2. See, the streams of living waters,

Springing from eternal love,

Well supply thy sons and daughters

And all fear of want remove:

Who can faint while such a river

Ever flows their thirst to assuage?

Grace which, like the Lord, the Giver,

Never fails from age to age.

3. Round each habitation hov'ring,

See the cloud and fire appear

For a glory and a cov'ring,

Showing that the Lord is near!

Glorious things of Thee are spoken,

Zion, city of our God;

He whose word cannot be broken

Formed thee for His own abode.

BLEST BE THE TIE THAT BINDS

1. Blest be the tie that binds

Our hearts in Christian love!

The fellowship of kindred minds

Is like to that above.

2. Before our Father's throne

We pour our ardent prayers;

Our fears, our hopes, our aims are one,

Our comforts and our cares.

3. We share our mutual woes,

Our mutual burdens bear;

And often for each other flows

The sympathizing tear.

4. When we asunder part

It gives us inward pain;

But we shall still be joined in heart,

And hope to meet again.

MORE HOLINESS GIVE ME

1. More holiness give me, more strivings within.

More patience in suffering, more sorrow for sin.

More faith in my Savior, more sense of His care.

More joy in His service, more purpose in prayer.

2. More gratitude give me, more trust in the Lord,

More pride in His glory, more hope in His Word.

More tears for His sorrows, more pain at His grief.

More meekness in trial, more praise for relief.

3. More purity give me, more strength to o'ercome,

More freedom from earth-stains, more longings for home.

More fit for the kingdom, more used would I'd be,

More blessed and holy, More, Savior, like Thee.

'TIS THE BLESSED HOUR OF PRAYER

1. 'Tis the blessed hour of prayer, when our hearts lowly bend,

And we gather to Jesus, our Savior and Friend;

If we come to Him in faith, His protection to share,

What a balm for the weary, O how sweet to be there!

Refrain:

Blessed hour of prayer, blessed hour of prayer,

What a balm for the weary, O how sweet to be there!

2. 'Tis the blessed hour of prayer, when the Savior draws near,

With a tender compassion His children to hear;

When He tells us we may cast at His feet every care,

What a balm for the weary, O how sweet to be there!

3. 'Tis the blessed hour of prayer, when the tempted and tried

To the Savior Who loves them their sorrow confide;

With a sympathizing heart He removes every care;

What a balm for the weary, O how sweet to be there!

4. At the blessed hour of prayer, trusting Him, we believe

That the blessing we're needing we'll surely receive;

In the fullness of this trust we shall lose every care;

What a balm for the weary, O how sweet to be there!

1. Praise Him! Praise Him! Jesus, our blessed Redeemer!

Sing, O earth- His wonderful love proclaim!

Hail Him! Hail Him! Highest archangels in glory,

Strength and honor give to His holy name!

Like a shepherd Jesus will guard His children-

In His arms he carries them all day long:

Refrain:

Praise Him! Praise Him!

Tell of his excellent greatness!

Praise Him! Praise Him!

Ever in joyful song!

2. Praise Him! Praise Him! Jesus, our blessed Redeemer!

For our sins He suffered and bled and died;

He our Rock, our hope of eternal salvation,

Hail Him! Hail Him! Jesus the Crucified.

Sound His praises- Jesus who bore our sorrows-

Love, unbounded, wonderful, deep and strong:

3. Praise Him! Praise Him! Jesus, our blessed Redeemer!

Heav'nly portals loud with hosannas ring!

Jesus, Saviour, reigneth for ever and ever,

Crown Him! Crown Him! Prophet and Priest and King!

Christ is coming, over the world victorious-

Pow'r and glory unto the Lord belong:

TAKE TIME TO BE HOLY

1. Take time to be holy,

Speak oft with Thy Lord;

Abide in Him always

And feed on His Word.

Make friends of God's children,

Help those who are weak,

Forgetting in nothing

His blessing to seek.

2. Take time to be holy,

The world rushes on;

Spend much time in secret

With Jesus alone.

By looking to Jesus,

Like Him thou shalt be;

Thy friends in thy conduct

His likeness shall see.

3. Take time to be holy,

Let Him be thy guide,

And run not before Him,

Whatever be-tide.

In joy or in sorrow

Still follow thy Lord,

And looking to Jesus,

Still trust in His Word.

4. Take time to be holy,

Be calm in thy soul-

Each thought and each motive

Beneath His control.

Thus led by His Spirit

To fountains of love,

Thou soon shalt be fitted

For service above.

SAFELY THROUGH ANOTHER WEEK

1. Safely through another week

God has brought us on our way;

Let us now a blessing seek,

Waiting in His courts today:

Day of all the week the best,

Emblem of eternal rest;

Day of all the week the best,

Emblem of eternal rest.

2. While we pray for pard'ning grace

Thru the dear Redeemer's name,

Show Thy reconciled face,

Take away our sin and shame;

From our worldly cares set free,

May we rest this day in Thee;

From our worldly cares set free,

May we rest this day in Thee.

3. Here we come Thy name to praise-

Let us feel Thy presence near;

May Thy glory meet our eyes

While we in Thy house appear:

Here afford us, Lord, a taste

Of our everlasting feast;

Here afford us, Lord, a taste

Of our everlasting feast.

4. May Thy gospel's joyful sound

Conquer sinners, comfort saints;

May the fruits of grace abound,

Bring relief for all complaints:

Thus may all our Sabbaths prove,

Till we join the Church above;

Thus may all our Sabbaths prove,

Till we join the Church above.

WE HAVE NOT KNOWN THEE AS WE OUGHT

1 We have not known Thee as we ought,

Nor learned Thy wisdom, grace and power;

The things of earth have filled our thought,

And trifles of the passing hour.

Lord, give us light Thy truth to see,

And make us wise in knowing Thee.

2 We have not feared Thee as we ought,

Nor bowed beneath Thine awful eye,

Nor guarded deed and word and thought,

Remembering that God was nigh.

Lord, give us faith to know Thee near,

And grant the grace of holy fear.

3 We have not loved Thee as we ought,

Nor cared that we are loved by Thee;

Thy presence we have coldly sought,

And feebly longed Thy face to see.

Lord, give a pure and loving heart

To feel and know the love Thou art.

4 We have not served Thee as we ought,

Alas, the duties left undone,

The work with little fervor wrought,

The battles lost or scarcely won!

Lord, give the zeal, and give the might,

For Thee to toil, for Thee to fight.

5 When shall we know Thee as we ought,

And fear and love and serve aright?

When shall we, out of trial brought,

Be perfect in the land of light?

Lord, may we day by day prepare

To see Thy face and serve Thee there.

ALL FOR JESUS

1 All for Jesus – all for Jesus,

This our song shall ever be;

For we have no hope, nor Saviour,

If we have not hope in Thee.

2 All for Jesus – Thou wilt give us

Strength to serve Thee, hour by hour;

None can move us from Thy presence,

While we trust Thy love and power.

3 All for Jesus – at Thine altar

Thou wilt give us sweet content;

There, dear Lord, we shall receive Thee

In the solemn Sacrament.

4 All for Jesus – Thou hast loved us;

All for Jesus Thou hast died;

All for Jesus Thou art with us;

All for Jesus crucified.

5 All for Jesus – all for Jesus

This the Church's song must be;

Till, at last, her sons are gathered

One in love and one in Thee.

O MASTER, LET ME WALK WITH THEE

1 O Master, let me walk with Thee,

In lowly paths of service free;

Tell me Thy secret; help me bear

The strain of toil, the fret of care.

2 Help me the slow of heart to move

By some clear, winning word of love;

Teach me the wayward feet to stay,

And guide them in the homeward way.

3 Teach me Thy patience; still with Thee

In closer, dearer, company,

In work that keeps faith sweet and strong,

In trust that triumphs over wrong.

4 In hope that sends a shining ray

Far down the future's broadening way,

In peace that only Thou canst give,

With Thee, O Master, let me live.

PRAISE MY SOUL, THE KING OF HEAVEN

1. Praise, my soul, the King of heaven,

To his feet thy tribute bring;

Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven,

Who, like me, his praise should sing?

Praise him! praise him!

Praise him! praise him!

Praise the everlasting King!

2. Praise him for his grace and favor

To our fathers in distress;

Praise him, still the same forever,

Slow to chide, and swift to bless.

Praise him! praise him!

Praise him! praise him!

Glorious in his faithfulness!

3. Fatherlike, he tends and spares us;

Well our feeble frame he knows;

In his hands he gently bears us,

Rescues us from all our foes.

Praise him! praise him!

Praise him! praise him!

Widely yet his mercy flows!

4. Angels, help us to adore him;

Ye behold him face to face;

Sun and moon, bow down before him;

Dwellers all in time and space,

Praise him! praise him!

Praise him! praise him!

Praise with us the God of grace! Amen.

CHRIST RETURNETH!

1 It may be at morn, when the day is awaking,

When sunlight through darkness and shadow is breaking

That Jesus will come in the fullness of glory

To receive from the world His own.

Refrain

O Lord Jesus, how long, how long

Ere we shout the glad song,

Christ returneth! Hallelujah!

Hallelujah! Amen. Hallelujah! Amen.

2 It may be at midday, it may be at twilight,

It may be, perchance, that the blackness of midnight

Will burst into light in the blaze of His glory,

When Jesus receives His own.

3 While hosts cry Hosanna, from heaven descending,

With glorified saints and the angels attending,

With grace on His brow, like a halo of glory,

Will Jesus receive His own.

4 O, joy! o, delight! should we go without dying,

No sickness, no sadness, no dread and no crying.

Caught up through the clouds with our Lord into glory,

When Jesus receives His own.

1 Ready to suffer grief or pain,

Ready to stand the test,

Ready to stay at home and send

Others if He sees best.

Refrain

Ready to go, ready to stay,

Ready my place to fill,

Ready for service, lowly or great,

Ready to do His will.

2 Ready to go, ready to bear,

Ready to watch and pray,

Ready to stand aside and give,

Till He shall clear the way.

3 Ready to speak, ready to think,

Ready with heart and mind,

Ready to stand where He sees fit,

Ready His will to find.

4 Ready to speak, ready to warn,

Ready o'er souls to yearn,

Ready in life, ready in death,

Ready for His return.

IT IS GLORY JUST TO WALK WITH HIM

1. It is glory just to walk with Him whose blood has ransomed me;

It is rapture for my soul each day;

It is joy divine to feel Him near where'er my path may be –

Bless the Lord, it's glory all the way!

Refrain:

It is glory just to walk with Him,

It is glory just to walk with Him,

He will guide my steps aright

Thru the vale and o'er the height –

It is glory just to walk with Him.

2. It is glory when the shadows fall to know that He is near,

O what joy to simply trust and pray!

It is glory to abide in Him when skies above are clear –

Yes, with Him, it's glory all the way!

3. 'Twill be glory when I walk with Him on heaven's golden shore,

Never from His side again to stray;

'Twill be glory, wondrous glory with the Savior evermore –

Everlasting glory all the way!

WHEN WE SEE CHRIST

1 Oft times the day seems long, our trials hard to bear,

We'er tempted to complain, to murmur and despair;

But Christ will soon appear to catch His Bride away,

All tears forever over in God's eternal day.

Refrain:

It will be worth it all when we see Jesus,

Life's trials will seem so small when we see Christ;

One glimpse of His dear face all sorrow will erase,

So bravely run the race till we see Christ.

2 Sometimes the sky looks dark with not a ray of light,

We're tossed and driven on, no human help in sight;

But there is one in heav'n who knows our deepest care,

Let Jesus solve your problem – just go to Him in pray'r.

3 Life's day will soon be o'er, all storms forever past,

We'll cross the great divide to glory, safe at last;

We'll share the joys of heav'n – a harp, a home , a crown,

The tempter will be banished, we'll lay our burden down.

SHOW ME THY WAY, O LORD

1. Show me Thy way, O Lord, And make it plain:

I would obey Thy word,- Speak yet again.

I would not take one step until… I know

Which way it is that you want me to go.

2. O Lord, I cannot see; Grant me Thy light;

Darkness bewilders me, Clouding my sight;

Hold Thou my hand, and keep close by my side:

I dare not go alone; be Thou my guide.

3. I cannot see Thy face, Yet Thou art here;

When will the morning chase My doubt and fear?

When shall I see the place where day and night

Shall come not, for Thy glory is… its light?

4. I will be patient, Lord, And do Thy will;

I will not doubt Thy word, My hopes fulfill.

How can I perish, if in Thee I hide;

Jesus, my Comforter, my Hope and Guide!

HAVE I DONE MY BEST FOR JESUS?

1. I wonder have I done my best for Jesus,

Who died upon the cruel tree?

To think of His great sacrifice at Calv'ry!

I know my Lord expects the best from me.

Refrain:

How many are the lost that I have lifted?

How many are the chained I've helped to free?

I wonder, have I done my best for Jesus,

When He has done so much for me?

2. The hours that I have wasted are so many,

The hours I've spent for Christ so few;

Because of all my lack of love for Jesus,

I wonder if His heart is breaking too.

3. I wonder, have I cared enough for others,

Or have I let them die alone?

I might have helped a wand'rer to the Saviour,

The seed of precious Life I might have sown.

4. No longer will I stay within the valley-

I'll climb to mountain heights above;

The world is dying now for want of someone

To tell them of the Saviour's matchless love.

MUST I GO, AND EMPTY-HANDED?

1 "Must I go, and empty handed,"

Thus my dear Redeemer meet?

Not one day of service give Him,

Lay no trophy at His feet?

Refrain

"Must I go, and empty handed?"

Must I meet my Savior so?

Not one soul with which to greet Him,

Must I empty handed go?

2 Not at death I shrink or falter,

For my Savior saves me now;

But to meet Him empty handed,

Thought of that now clouds my brow.

3 O the years in sinning wasted,

Could I but recall them now,

I would give them to my Savior,

To His will I'd gladly bow.

4 O ye saints, arouse, be earnest,

Up and work while yet 'tis day;

Ere the night of death o'ertake thee,

Strived for souls while still you may.

MAKE ME A CHANNEL OF BLESSING

1. Is your life a channel of blessing?

Is the love of God flowing thro' you?

Are you telling the lost of the Saviour?

Are you ready His service to do?

Refrain:

Make me a channel of blessing today,

Make me a channel of blessing, I pray;

My life possessing, my service blessing,

Make me a channel of blessing today.

2. Is your life a channel of blessing?

Are you burdened for those who are lost?

Have you urged upon those who are straying

The Saviour who died on the cross?

3. Is your life a channel of blessing?

Is it daily telling for Him?

Have you spoken the word of salvation

To those who are dying in sin?

4. We cannot be channels of blessing

If our lives are not free from known sin;

We will barriers be and a hindrance

To those we are trying to win.

TO THE WORK!

1 To the work! To the work! We are servants of God;

Let us follow the path that our Master has trod;

With the balm of His counsel our strength to renew,

Let us do with our might what our hands find to do.

Refrain

Toiling on, toiling on,

Toiling on, toiling on,

Let us hope,

Let us watch,

And labor till the Master comes.

2 To the work! To the work! Let the hungry be fed;

To the fountain of life let the weary be led;

In the cross and its banner our glory shall be,

While we herald the tidings, "Salvation is free!"

3 To the work! To the work! There is labor for all;

For the kingdom of darkness and error shall fall;

And the name of Jehovah exalted shall be,

In the loud swelling chorus, "Salvation is free!"

4 To the work! To the work! In the strength of the Lord,

And a robe and a crown shall our labor reward,

When the home of the faithful our dwelling shall be,

And we shout with the ransomed, "Salvation is free!"
