And let us not grow weary while doing good,
for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.
Galatians 6:9​

Looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. For consider Him who endured such hostility from sinners against Himself, lest you become weary and discouraged in your souls. Hebrews 12:2-3​

oly:


Be Not Weary

Yes! He knows the way is dreary, knows the weakness of our frame,
Knows that hand and heart are weary; He, ‘in all points,’ felt the same.
He is near to help and bless, be not weary, onward press.

Look to Him who once was willing all His glory to resign,
That, for thee the law fulfilling, all His merit might be thine.
Strive to follow day by day where His footsteps mark the way.

Look to Him, the Lord of Glory, tasting death to win thy life;
Gazing on ‘that wondrous story,’ canst thou falter in the strife?
Is it not new life to know that the Lord hath loved thee so?

Look to Him who ever liveth, interceding for His own:
Seek, yea, claim the grace He giveth freely from His priestly throne.
Will He not thy strength renew with His Spirit’s quickening dew?

Look to Him, and faith shall brighten, hope shall soar, and love shall burn;
Peace once more thy heart shall lighten; rise! He calleth thee, return!
Be not weary on thy way Jesus is thy strength and stay.


oly:


But He gives more grace.
James 4:6

He Giveth More Grace

Fear not that thy need shall exceed His provision,
Our God ever yearns His resources to share;
Lean hard on the arm everlasting, availing;
The Father both thee and thy load will upbear.
His love has no limits, His grace has no measure,
His power no boundary known unto men;
For out of His infinite riches in Jesus
He giveth, and giveth, and giveth again.

Fold me in Thy love’s embrace,
And unto my soul reveal

And this earthly heart of mine
Into Thine own image mold.

In communion rich and sweet,
Till my soul shall be refined,
And in Thee be made complete.

Draw me closer, Lord, to Thee,
For my longing soul aspires
To discover in Thyself
All it yearns for and desires.

Ever purer, purer, purer

LORD, make me to know my end, and what is the measure of my days, that I may know how frail I am.
Psalm 39:4

So teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
Psalm 90:12

​

oly:


Teach Me the Measure of My Days

Teach me the measure of my days,
Thou Maker of my frame;
I would survey life’s narrow space,
And learn how frail I am.
A span is all that we can boast,
An inch or two of time;
Man is but vanity and dust
In all his flower and prime.

See the vain race of mortals move
Like shadows o’er the plain;
They rage and strive, desire and love,
But all the noise is vain.
Some walk in honor’s gaudy show,
Some dig for golden ore;
They toil for heirs, they know not who,
And straight are seen no more.

What should I wish or wait for, then,
From creatures earth and dust?
They make our expectations vain,
And disappoint our trust.
Now I forbid my carnal hope,
My fond desires recall;
I give my mortal interest up,
And make my God my all.

For what is your life?
It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away.
James 4:14

God Holds the Future in His Hands

Dread not the things that are ahead,
The burdens great, the sinking sands,
The thorns that o’er the path are spread,
God holds the future in His hands
And every heart He understands.
On Him depend, He is your friend,
He holds the future in His hands.

Trust In The Lord

Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
This is God’s gracious command;
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
So shall you dwell in the land.

Trust in the Lord who ruleth all,
Seeeth all things as they are,
Be it a birdling in its nest,
Or yonder uttermost star.

Trust in the Lord and peaceful be,
Fret not thy spirit in vain,
What though the answer tarries long,
Still shalt thou praise Him again.

Trust in the Lord — His eye will guide
All thro’ your pathway ahead,
He hath redeemed and He will keep,
Trust Him and be not afraid.

Trust in the Lord, O troubled soul,
Rest in the arms of His care;
Whatever your lot, it mattereth not,
Nothing can trouble you there.

But I know who holds tomorrow,
And I know who holds my hand.

Evil shall pass with the day that brought it,
As the sea is stayed by the barrier land;

But the grace of the Lord outstays the evil,
Outlasts the darkness, outruns the morn,
Out watches the stars in their nightly vigil;
And the foe that returns with the day reborn,
As he left it unwearied, shall find it unworn.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil;
For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.

Shut in — shut in from the ceaseless din
Of the restless world, and its' wants and sin;
Shut in from its' turmoil, care and strife
And all the wearisome round of life.

Shut in, with tears that are spent in vain,
With the dull companionship of pain;
Shut in with the changeless days and hours,
And the bitter knowledge of failing powers.

Shut in with a trio of virtues sweet —
Patience and Grace all pain to meet,
With Faith that can suffer and stand and wait,
And lean on the promises strong and great!

Shut in with Christ! Oh, wonderful thought!
Shut in with the peace His sufferings brought;
Shut in with the love that wields the rod —
Oh, company blest! Shut in with God!

Shut in with God beholding His face
Gaining new power to run in this race
Oh I love to be shut in with God

An exile still, yet not unblest,
While still and will cling to Thee.

And earthly friends and joys remove,
With patient, uncomplaining love
Still would I cling to Thee.

Though faith and hope may long be tried,
I ask not, need not aught beside;
How safe, how calm, how satisfied,
The souls that cling to Thee!
Blessed is my lot, whate’er befall;
What can disturb me, who appall,
While as my strength, my rock, my all,

Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life,

Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?
Matthew 6:25

​

Do Not Worry

Do not worry for your life, what you’ll eat or drink or wear;
Is not life much more important than these things that cause you care?
See the birds — they sow and reap not, nor in barns do store away.
Yet your heav’nly Father feeds them; have you not more worth than they?

And why worry about clothing? see the lilies’ glad array;
Solomon in all his splendor never dressed as fine as they.
This is how God clothes the grasses, though their life is but a day.
Will He not much more meet your needs? Let your faith not fade away.

So I tell you, do not worry, asking what you’ll eat or drink.
Nor be anxious about clothing — These are things that all men seek.
And your Father knows you need them; worry won’t command His power.
Which of you by constant fretting adds to life a single hour?

Seek first, then, your Father’s kingdom and His righteousness on high.
All these things will then be given; God will not neglect your cry.
So fret not about tomorrow; God directs the future, too.
Though each day will bring troubles, trust in Him — He’ll see you through.

All of my need He freely supplieth,
Day after day His goodness I prove;
Mercies unfailing, new every morning,

One who is friend and brother indeed;
Nothing have I, yet I am contented,

Grant to each of us, we pray,
Strength to serve Thee all the day,
For Thine we are.


Praise the Lord! Amen! and Amen!

We have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.
2 Corinthians 5:1

​

oly:


Not Made With Hands

Christ went a building to prepare,
Yes, not made with hands,
And ’twill be decked with jewels rare,
Not made with hands.

Put on the armor of our God,
Amen, not made with hands,
And take the path our Captain trod,
Not made with hands.

Keep fighting sin, that awful foe,
I know, not made with hands,
Until you hear the trumpet blow,
Not made with hands.

Then come up, children, get your crown,
Real, not made with hands,
When you have laid your armor down,
Not made with hands.

That city’s built with precious stone,
Hallelujah, Not made with hands,
Within we’ll gather ’round the throne,
Not made with hands.

I know, I know,
I have another building;
I know, I know,
’Tis not made with hands.

The city had no need of the sun or of the moon to shine in it,
for the glory of God illuminated it.
The Lamb is its light.
Revelation 21:23

In the City Where the Lamb is the light

There’s a country far beyond the starry sky,
There’s a city where there never comes a night;
If we’re faithful we shall go there by and by,
’Tis the city where the Lamb is the light.
In that city where the Lamb is the light,
The city where there cometh no night;
I’ve a mansion over there,
And when free from toil and care,
I am going where the Lamb is the light.


Praise the Lord! Amen! and Amen!

In my Father’s house are many mansions.
John 14:2

​

oly:


I’m Going Home

My heav’nly home is bright and fair,
Nor pain nor death can enter there;
Its glittering towers the sun outshine,
That heav’nly mansion shall be mine.

My Father’s home is built on high,
Far, far above the starry sky;
When from this earthly prison free,
That heav’nly mansion mine shall be.

Let others seek a home below,
Which flames devour, or waves o’erflow;
Be mine a happier lot to own
A heav’nly mansion near the throne.

The city had no need of the sun or of the moon to shine in it,
for the glory of God illuminated it.
The Lamb is its light.
Revelation 21:23

Beautiful Isle of Somewhere

Somewhere the sun is shining,
Somewhere the songbirds dwell;
Hush, then, thy sad repining,
God lives, and all is well.
Somewhere, somewhere,
Beautiful Isle of Somewhere!
Land of the true, where we live anew,
Beautiful Isle of Somewhere!


Praise the Lord! Amen! and Amen!
