We Have This Hope

We have this hope that burns within our hearts,
Hope in the coming of the Lord.

Faith in the promise of His Word.

When the nations far and near
Shall awake, and shout and sing
Hallelujah! Christ is King!

One Day

One day the trumpet will sound for His coming,
One day the skies with His glories will shine;
Wonderful day, my beloved ones bringing;

Living, He loved me; dying, He saved me;
Buried, He carried my sins far away;
Rising, He justified freely forever;
One day He’s coming — O glorious day!

Until Then

My heart can sing when I pause to remember
A heartache here is but a stepping stone,
Along a path that's winding always upward,
This troubled world is not my final home.
But until then my heart will go on singing,
Until then with joy I'll carry on,
Until the day my eyes behold my Savior,
Until the day God calls me home.

There’s a Deep, Settled Peace in My Soul

I cannot tell thee whence it came,
This peace within my breast;
But this I know, there fills my soul
A strange and tranquil rest.

Beneath the toil and care of life,
This hidden stream flows on;
My weary soul no longer thirsts,
Nor am I sad and lone.

I cannot tell the half of love,
Unfeigned, supreme, divine,
That caused my darkest inmost self
With beams of hope to shine.

I cannot tell thee why He chose
To suffer and to die,
But if I suffer here with Him
I’ll reign with Him on high.

There’s a deep, settled peace in my soul,
There’s a deep, settled peace in my soul,
Tho’ the billows of sin near me roll,
He abides, Christ abides.

These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace.
In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.
John 16:33

Constantly Abiding

There’s a peace in my heart that the world never gave,
A peace it cannot take away;
Though the trials of life may surround like a cloud,
I’ve a peace that has come here to stay!
Constantly abiding, Jesus is mine;
Constantly abiding, rapture divine;
He never leaves me lonely, whispers, O so kind:
“I will never leave thee,” Jesus is mine.

There with our Savior, we'll be forever,

Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing. 1 Corinthians 13:1-3​

Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God.
1 John 4:7

Sunday Morning Praise

Though I Speak

Though I speak in every language, prophesy for God above,
Though I understand all mysteries,I am nothing without love.
Though through faith I can move mountains, give the poor all that I gain,
Though I’m burned alive for Jesus, without love, my life is vain.

Love is patient, kind, and selfless, envies not, nor boasts in pride,
Is not rude or quickly angered, never holds a grudge inside.
Love does not delight in evil, but with truth rejoices e’er;
Trusts, protects, and hopes forever, perseveres and always cares.

One day prophecies will finish, tongues will in that day be stilled;
Knowledge, too, will pass forever, when God’s Word is all fulfilled.
Now we only know a fraction, and as children think and speak;
When perfection comes upon us, childish ways no more we’ll seek.

Now we see as in a mirror, in a blurred and hazy way.
But reflections soon will vanish, face to face we’ll see some day.
In that day we’ll all know fully, as we’re known by God above;
Till then, faith, hope, love still linger, but the greatest far is love.

And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love. 1 Corinthians 13:13​

oly:


Yes, I have loved you with an everlasting love.
Jeremiah 31:3

Thy Ceaseless, Unexhausted Love

Thy ceaseless, unexhausted love, unmerited and free,
Delights our evil to remove, and help our misery.
Thou waitest to be gracious still, Thou dost with sinners bear,
That, saved, we may Thy goodness feel, and all Thy grace declare.
Faithful, O Lord, Thy mercies are! A rock that cannot move!
A thousand promises declare Thy constancy of love.
Throughout the universe it reigns, unalterably sure;
And while the truth of God remains, the goodness must endure.

Heir to His kingdom, child of His love.

Looking to Jesus, only to Jesus;
He is my refuge, comfort and song.

And the raging, stormy sea threatens to engulf my bark.
Long the journey, rough the main, still the harbor far away —
And I toil in numbing pain, through the billows’ icy spray.
Though Thy purposes seem dark, Thou art faithful to perform.
And Thou bid’st me to embark, and cross over in the storm.
So, obeying Thy command, I am trusting, Lord, in Thee.
I am weary, far from land, but salvation I shall see.

Peace shall be his portion here, and his sons all good shall know.
They that fear and love the Lord shall Jehovah’s friendship know;
He will grace to them accord, and His faithful covenant show.

Ever are my longing eyes on the Lord, whose watchful care,
When my foes their plots devise, keeps my feet from every snare.
Turn to me, Thy grace impart, I am desolate indeed;
Great the troubles of my heart, save Thou me, O Lord, I plead.

Look on mine afflicted state, freely all my sins forgive;
Mark my foes, their cruel hate, keep my soul and let me live.
Shame me not; I hide in Thee, truth and right preserve me still;
Mark Thy people, Lord my God, save Thou from every ill.

Love and hope be deepened, faith more strong and clear.
When the night grows darkest, and the stars are pale,
When the foemen gather In death’s misty vale,
Be Thou sword and buckler, be Thou shield and mail.
Blessed warfare over, endless rest alone;
Tears no more, nor sorrow, neither sigh nor moan,
But a song of triumph round about the throne.

...Peter answered Him and said, “Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water.” So He said, “Come.” And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Jesus. But when he saw that the wind was boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!” And immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and caught him, and said to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?” Matthew 14:28-31

To help me do the best I can,
For I need Thy light to guide me day and night
Blessed Jesus hold my hand.

Let me travel in the light divine
That I may see the blessed way,
Keep me that I may be wholly Thine
And sing redemption's song some day.

I will be a soldier brave and true
And ever firmly take a stand,
As I onward go and daily meet the foe
Blessed Jesus hold my hand.

Through this pilgrim land protect me by thy power.
Hear my feeble plea O Lord look down on me,
When I kneel in prayer I going to meet you the,
Blessed Jesus hold my hand.

Where, tossed ’mid dark and angry waves, the mariner calls to Thee.
O as Thou didst on Galilee the waters calm at will,
When torrents raised by evil breath the sinking ship did fill,
So now in my storm shaken soul awake with strength divine,
And whisper ‘peace’ to warring winds, and let Thy glory shine.
Be Thou my Pilot through the mists and storms that darkly rise,
As o’er life’s vast and dangerous sea my frail bark lightly flies.

Thru sorrow, or shadow or sun;
And though I be tried in the furnace,

And oh, what a joy it will be
To know that His love, now so precious,
Will forever grow sweeter to me!

Growing dearer each step of my way!

In the crown you hope to wear in yonder world of light.
Seek the gems immortal that are precious in His sight!

Morning hours are passing, and the ev’ning follows fast;
Soon the time of reaping will forevermore be past.
Empty handed to the Master will you go at last?

Lift thine eyes and look upon the fields that stand
Ripe and ready for the willing gleaner’s hand,
Rouse ye, O sleepers! Ye are needed as reapers!
Who will be the first to answer, “Master, here am I.”
Far and wide the ripened grain is bending low,
In the breezes gently waving to and fro,
Rouse ye, O sleepers! Ye are needed as reapers!

Over wandering souls to work, to weep, to wake,
To bear the burdens of a world a-weary,

Sunday Morning Praise

Sing On

Sing on, ye joyful pilgrims, nor think the moments long;
My faith is heav’nward rising with every tuneful song;
Lo! on the mount of blessing, the glorious mount, I stand;
And looking over Jordan, I see the promised land.

Sing on, ye joyful pilgrims, while here on earth we stay;
Let songs of home and Jesus beguile each fleeting day;
Sing on the grand old story of His redeeming love,
The everlasting chorus that fills the realms above.

Sing on, ye joyful pilgrims, the time will not be long,
Till in our Father’s kingdom we swell a nobler song;
Where angels there are waiting to greet us on the shore,
We’ll meet beyond the river, where surges roll no more.

Sing on, O blissful music! With every note you raise,
My heart is filled with rapture, my soul is lost in praise.
Sing on with blissful music! With every note you raise,
My heart is filled with rapture, my soul is lost in praise.

Oh, give thanks to the LORD!
Call upon His name; make known His deeds among the peoples!
1 Chronicles 16:8

Give Thanks to God the Lord

Give thanks to God the Lord; upon His name now call.
Make known among the people on earth what He has done for all.
Sing praise to Him, now sing; His wondrous acts proclaim.
Rejoice, all you who seek the Lord; come glory in His name.
Look to the Lord’s great strength; remember all His deeds.
His judgments are in all of the earth; He is the Lord indeed.
His covenant e’er will stand; His oath He’ll ne’er forget.
A thousand generations pass; God’s word continues yet.


Praise the Lord! Amen! and Amen!

God my Maker, Who gives songs in the night.
Job 35:10

You Can Have a Song in Your Heart in the Night

You can have a melody down in your heart,
When it's aching, almost breaking.
Even tho' the sorrow makes the teardrop start,
You can have a melody down in your heart.

Do not let your worries drive your song away,
Though tomorrow brings its sorrow,
Just remember after night time comes the day.
Do not let your worries drive your song away.

Soon the night will pass and morning brings the day;
I am longing for its dawning,
until then we'll labor here and watch and pray,
Soon the night will pass and morning bring the day.

You can have a song in your heart in the night
After every trial, after every mile.
Anyone can sing when the sun is shining bright,
But you need a song in your heart at the night.

At midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God,
and the prisoners were listening to them.
Acts 16:25

Paul and Silas

Night had fallen on the city, and the streets at last were still,
Where the noisy throng the day-long, did the air with shoutings fill.
And the weary wayworn travelers preaching Jesus thro’ the land,
Were in deepest dungeon darkness, at the magistrates’ command.
Oh, there’s not a cell so lonely, but a song may echo there;
Oh, there’s not a night so cheerless, but there’s potency in prayer.
Sing, oh sing, thou weary pilgrim, song will bring thee heav’nly peace,
Pray, oh pray, thou burdened prisoner, God will give thee sweet release.


Praise the Lord! Amen! and Amen!
