Some Heart Has Gone This Way Before

Tho’ rough may be thy path, and long,
Remember! that with grief as sore,
And burdens larger far than thine,
Some heart has gone this way before.

Tho’ dark may be the gath’ring night;
Tho’ loud and long the storm may roar;
Take courage! thou art not the first,
Some heart has gone this way before.

Some heart has gone this way before,
Some feet have scaled this dizzy height;
Some yearning eyes have pierced the gloom,
And seen the dawn of Heaven’s light.

So thou, dear pilgrim, too, canst go;
Some day thy trials will be o’er;
For unto rest and peace beyond,
Some heart has gone this way before.

Trust then in Christ! His arm will guide
Each faithful one thro’ Jordan’s tide;
Hope on! the race will soon be past
And victory will come at last.

The days of the years of my pilgrimage.
Genesis 47:9

When My Pilgrimage Is Finished Here

When my pilgrimage is finished here,
And I am troubled by grief and despair,
Grace never failing awaits me on the other side;
When I have traveled the way with my Lord,
Counting the mileposts by faith in His Word,
Living and dying with Him by my side,
Sheltered above by His infinite love,
Praise the Lord! With Jesus I shall abide.

While we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen.
For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.

2 Corinthians 4:18

O Jesus Savior, Friend Unseen

O Jesus Savior, friend unseen,
The faint, the weak on Thee may lean,
Help me, throughout life’s varying scene,
By faith to cling to Thee.
Blessed with this fellowship divine,
Take what Thou wilt, I’ll ne’er repine;
E’en as the branches to the vine,
My soul would cling to Thee.

Far from home, fatigued, oppressed,
My soul has found that place of rest
An exile still, yet not unblest,
While still and will cling to Thee.
What though the world deceitful prove,
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,
All, Savior, I cling to Thee!

For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face.
Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known.

1 Corinthians 13:12

Face to Face With Christ My Savior

Face to face with Christ, my Savior, face to face what will it be,
When with rapture I behold Him, Jesus Christ who died for me?
Face to face oh, blissful moment! Face to face to see and know;
Face to face with my Redeemer, Jesus Christ who loves me so.
Face to face I shall behold Him, far beyond the starry sky;
Face to face in all His glory, I shall see Him by and by!

More Love to Thee, O Christ

More love to Thee, O Christ, more love to Thee!
Hear Thou the prayer I make on bended knee.
This is my earnest plea: More love, O Christ, to Thee;
Once earthly joy I craved, sought peace and rest;
Now Thee alone I seek, give what is best,
This all my prayer shall be: More love, O Christ to Thee;
More love to Thee, more love to Thee!

Let sorrow do its work, come grief or pain;
Sweet are Thy messengers, sweet their refrain,
When they can sing with me: More love, O Christ, to Thee;
Then shall my latest breath whisper Thy praise;
This be the parting cry my heart shall raise,
This still its prayer shall be: More love, O Christ to Thee;
More love to Thee, more love to Thee!

Because He first loved us.
1 John 4:19

O How I Love Jesus

There is a name I love to hear, I love to sing its worth,
It sounds like music in my ear, the sweetest name on earth.
It tells me of a Savior’s love, who died to set me free,
And of His precious blood, the sinner’s perfect plea.
Of One whose loving heart can feel my deepest woe,
Who in each sorrow bears a part that none can bear below.
Jesus, the name I love so well, the name I love to hear:
No saint on earth its worth can tell, no heart conceive how dear;
Yes! O how I love Jesus, because He first loved me!

When he came and had seen the grace of God, he was glad,

Acts 11:23



:poly:


I Would Be True

I would be true, for there are those who trust me;
I would be pure, for there are those who care;
I would be strong, for there is much to suffer;
I would be brave, for there is much to dare.

I would be friend of all — the foe, the friendless;
I would be giving, and forget the gift;
I would be humble, for I know my weakness;
I would look up, and laugh, and love and lift.

I would be faithful through each passing moment;
I would be constantly in touch with God;
I would be strong to follow where He leads me;
I would have faith to keep the path Christ trod.

Who is so low that I am not his brother?
Who is so high that I’ve no path to him?
Who is so poor, that I may not feel his hunger?
Who is so rich I may not pity him?

Who is so hurt I may not know his heartache?
Who sings for joy my heart may never share?
Who in God’s heaven has passed beyond my vision?
Who to Hell’s depths where I may never fare?

May none, then, call on me for understanding,
May none, then, turn to me for help in pain,
And drain alone his bitter cup of sorrow,
Or find he knocks upon my heart in vain.

For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul?
Mark 8:36

If I Gained the World

If I gained the world, but lost the Savior,
Were my life worth living for a day?
Could my yearning heart find rest and comfort
In the things that soon must pass away?
If I gained the world, but lost the Savior,
Would my gain be worth the lifelong strife?
Are all earthly pleasures worth comparing
For a moment with a Christ-filled life?
If I have but Jesus, only Jesus,
Nothing else in all the world beside—
O then everything is mine in Jesus;
For my needs and more He will provide.

Sunday Morning Praise

Before Thy Mercy Seat, O Lord

Before Thy mercy seat, O Lord,
Behold, Thy servants stand,
To ask the knowledge of Thy Word,
The guidance of Thy hand.

Let Thy eternal truths, we pray,
Dwell richly in each heart;
That from the safe and narrow way
We never may depart.

Lord, from Thy Word remove the seal,
Unfold its hidden store,
And as we read, teach us to feel
Its value more and more.

Help us to see a Savior’s love
Shine forth from every page,
And let the thoughts of joys above
Our inmost souls engage.

Thus, while Thy Word our footsteps guides,
Shall we be truly blest,
And soon arrive where love provides
An everlasting rest.

Hebrews 4:16

Behold the Throne of Grace

Behold the throne of grace, the promise calls us near,
There Jesus shows a smiling face and waits to answer prayer.
My soul ask what thou wilt, Thou canst not be too bold;
Since His own blood for thee He spilt, what else can He withhold.
Teach me to live by faith, conform my will to Thine;
Let me victorious be in death, and then in glory shine.
If Thou these blessings give, and wilt my portion be;
Cheerful the world’s poor toys I leave, to them who know not Thee.

Our Soldier Heroes Sleeping

They’ll never cross the valleys, or crystal waters sweet,
They’ll never face the foeman, when charging armies meet;
O’er mountains, vast and hoary, o’er hill and grassy plain,
Our soldier heroes sleeping, shall never march again.

We’ll call our hosts together, from over land and sea,
They’ll never hear the trumpet, or sound of reveille;
Our country’s flag shall lead them a host as strong and brave,
As they who sleep in silence, where flowers o’er them wave.

They fought and won the battle, those hero boys of ours,
And we are left to weep them and strew their graves with flow’rs;
They’ve won the palms of glory, they wear the rose of grace,
Beneath His crown of sunlight their souls shall see His face.

Their feet shall cross the valleys, and Eden’s rivers sweet,
They’ll lie beside the fountains, where angels joyful meet;
But ’mid their country’s battles, o’er any earthy plain,
Our soldier heroes sleeping, shall never march again.

They’ll shall never march again, never march again,
Our soldier heroes sleeping, shall never march again.
They’ll never march again, never march again,
Our soldier heroes sleeping, yes, shall never march again.

By the tender love which watcheth round Thy children everywhere,
Holy Father, Holy Father, keep them ever in Thy care.
In their joys, by friends surrounded, in their strife, by foes oppressed,
May Thy blessing still be with them, may Thy presence give them rest,
God Almighty, God Almighty, Father, Son, and Spirit blest.

In The Twinkling Of An Eye

When the trump of the great archangel
Its mighty tones shall sound,
And, the end of the age proclaiming,
Shall pierce the depths profound;
When the Son of Man shall come in His glory
To take the saints on high,
What a shouting in the skies from the multitudes that rise,
Changed in the twinkling of an eye.

When He comes in the clouds descending,
And they who loved Him here,
From their graves shall awake and praise Him
With joy and not with fear;
When the body and the soul are united,
And clothed no more to die,
What a shouting there will be when each other’s face we see,
Changed in the twinkling of an eye.

O the seed that was sown in weakness
Shall then be raised in pow’r
And the songs of the blood bought millions
Shall hail that blissful hour;
When we gather safely home in the morning,
And night’s dark shadows fly,
What a shouting on the shore when we meet to part no more,
Changed in the twinkling of an eye.

Changed in the twinkling of an eye,
Yes! Changed in the twinkling of an eye,
The trumpet shall sound, the dead shall be raised,
Changed in the twinkling of an eye.

And the radiance of His glory we shall see,
What a gath’ring of the ransomed that will be!
O the King is surely coming, and the time is drawing nigh,
When the blessed day of promise we shall see;
Then the changing “in a moment,” “in the twinkling of an eye,”
What a gath’ring, what a gath’ring, that will be.

Happy wherever they go!

Thou tender, gracious Father, who watches over me,
How shall I ever praise Thee, how love and honor Thee?
Thou guidest me with caution from every secret snare,
And ’neath Thy wings a refuge I find in my despair.

With raiment, food and shelter, whate’er my needs imply,
For soul and body ever, do Thou in grace supply.
O Lord, I soon would perish if aught Thou should exclude;
O could I love Thee better and prove my gratitude.

In childlike, true obedience help me to do the right;
May precious be Thy statutes, Thy yoke be pleasant light!
And when some hardship threatens, a danger frightens me,
May Thou in all my trials my present helper be.

Thy heart is all compassion, with love it overflows;
Whate’er of ill betide me, Thou knowest, and my woes.
Thou dost not sleep nor slumber, by night nor thru the days;
Thine arms, almighty Father, enfold all time and space.

On mountain bleak or on the stormy sea;
Tho’ billows roll, He keeps my soul;

Daily walking close to Thee, let it be, dear Lord, let it be.

Though by the path He leadeth, but one step I may see;

Whenever I am tempted, whenever clouds arise,
When songs give place to sighing, when hope within me dies,
I draw the closer to Him, from care He sets me free;

For His eye is on the sparrow,

The Things Which are Behind

Leave behind earth’s empty pleasure, fleeting hope and changeful love;
Leave its soon-corroding treasure; there are better things above.
Leave, oh, leave thy fond aspirings, bid thy restless heart be still;
Cease, oh cease, thy vain desirings, only seek thy Father’s will.
Leave behind thy faithless sorrow, and thine every anxious care;
He who only knows the morrow can for thee its burden bear.
Leave behind the doubting spirit, and thy crushing load of sin;
By thy mighty Saviour’s merit, life eternal thou shalt win.
Leave the darkness gathering o’er thee, leave the shadow-land behind;
Realms of glory lie before thee; enter in, and welcome find.

Only believe, only believe; all things are possible, only believe,
Only believe, yes, only believe; all things are possible, only believe.



Praise the Lord! Amen! and Amen!

Peace, be still.
Mark 4:39

He’s the Prince of Peacemakers

He hath spoken, Be still, the Rebuker of seas;
The command was for me, and my heart is at ease;
He hath hushed into silence the waves and the winds,
By applying His blood, and removing my sins.

He hath quickened my soul by a life from above,
It was done by the Spirit, its essence is love;
He hath pardoned and washed me as white as the snow,
And my heart with His love does this moment o’erflow.

He’s a wonderful Jesus, this Savior of mine,
He’s the great Son of God, a Redeemer divine.
He’s my strength, and my wisdom, my life and my Lord,
And enthroned in my heart to be loved and adored.

I will love Him and serve Him, from now till I die,
For His love fills my heart, and His beauty my eye.
He’s the fairest and dearest of all to my soul,
And our lives shall be one, while eternities roll.

He’s the Prince of peacemakers, all glory to God,
To redeem me, and cleanse me, He shed his own blood;
My adoption is sealed, I’m a child of the King,
And for ever and ever of Jesus I’ll sing.



You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You.
Isaiah 26:3
Then He arose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Peace, be still!”
And the wind ceased and there was a great calm.

Mark 4:39

Peace Speaker

It was such a lovely day and the sun was shining bright
The suddenly without a warning storm surrounded my life
But even in the storm I can feel the calm and here's the reason why
I know the Peace Speaker I know Him by name
I know the Peace Speaker He controls the winds and waves.
There’s never been another man with the power of this friend
By simply saying, “Peace! Be still!” He can calm the strongest wind.
So now I’ll never worry when storm clouds come my way
I know that He is near to drive away my fear,and I can smile and say…
Peace, peace, wonderful peace, coming down from the Father above.



Praise the Lord! Amen! and Amen!

Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
John 14:27



:poly:


Let Not Your Heart Be Troubled

O words of comfort granted for every need and care,
The very message wanted to chase away despair;
This sweet command of Jesus was meant to be obeyed
“Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”

When disappointment scatters your hopes like autumn leaves;
When all is lost that matters, and all is left that grieves;
When chastisement and sorrow on darkened days are laid;
“Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”

When past sins rise unbidden, to spoil the present good,
And all the light is hidden, by some desponding mood,
He whispers in compassion, “My love the debt hath paid;
Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”

When health and strength are failing, beneath the load of years,
And toil seems unavailing, and life is thronged with fears,
“Fear not!” He saith,” In weakness my strength is perfect made;
Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”

O soul, redeemed by Jesus, all Heav’n is pledged to aid:
“Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”

Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you.
John 14:27

Resting in God’s Peace

My soul is resting in God’s peace, without a doubt or fear;
The boisterous waves of trouble cease, for Christ, my Lord, is near.
The Spirit poureth from on high, a sanctifying tide,
And bathing in its streams of joy, my soul is satisfied.
My hand in His, I will not fear, how fierce may be the storm;
I’m sheltered in His love each day, and kept from all alarm.
He drives my every doubt away, He gives me childlike faith;
And so I take the yea or nay, just as my Father saith.
Resting, resting, resting in God’s sweet peace;
Resting, yes I'm resting, I’m resting in God’s sweet peace.

Sunday Morning Praise

Jesus, Where’er Thy People Meet

Jesus, where’er Thy people meet,
There they behold Thy mercy seat;
Where’er they seek Thee Thou art found,
And every place is hallowed ground.
For Thou, within no walls confined,
Inhabitest the humble mind;
Such ever bring Thee, where they come,
And, going, take Thee to their home.

Dear Shepherd of Thy chosen few,
Thy former mercies here renew;
Here, to our waiting hearts, proclaim
The sweetness of Thy saving name.
Here may we prove the power of prayer
To strengthen faith and sweeten care;
To teach our faint desires to rise,
And bring all Heav’n before our eyes.

Behold at Thy commanding word,
We stretch the curtain and the cord;
Come Thou, and fill this wider space,
And bless us with a large increase.
Lord, we are few, but Thou art near;
Nor short Thine arm, nor deaf Thine ear;
O rend the heavens, come quickly down,
And make a thousand hearts Thine own!



:poly:


To You, O LORD, I lift up my soul.
Psalm 25:1
Let my prayer be set before You as incense, the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.
Psalm 141:2

The Vesper Hour
(Eventide)


In my heart a song is rising, holy peace of twilight calm,
As the Sabbath breathes its blessing, vesper hour, of hallowed calm.
Vesper hour, the soul at leisure, climbs a sacred Pisgah height,
Views the Promised Land before us arched by God’s bright bow of light.
Added sweetness to the Sabbath, comes with vesper hallowed time,
Like clear bells in silver chorus with their mellow distant chime.
Here, we list the sweet-toned echo in our Father’s gracious Word;
There, we join the sounding anthem, “Alleluia! praise the Lord!”



Praise the Lord! Amen! and Amen!

The finest of wheat.
Psalm 81:16
The bread of heaven.
Psalm 105:40

Fed Upon the Finest of the Wheat

Hungry, Lord, for Thy Word of truth,
Sitting at my Savior’s feet;
Rising, gleaning, just like Ruth,
Feed me on the finest of the wheat.

Work for the Master I will do,
Trusting in His strength so great;
Living in His pastures new,
Feed me on the finest of the wheat.

Then to the harvest let us go,
Bugles sounding no retreat;
Workers for Jesus, He wants you
Fed upon the finest of the wheat.

Bread of life it is now to me,
Honey, milk and meat;
In Thy love I will ever be
Fed upon the finest of the wheat.

Jesus said…“I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger.”
John 6:35

Break Thou The Bread of Life

Break Thou the bread of life, dear Lord, to me,
As Thou didst break the loaves beside the sea;
Beyond the sacred page I seek Thee, Lord;
My spirit pants for Thee, O living Word!
Bless Thou the truth, dear Lord, to me, to me,
As Thou didst bless the bread by Galilee;
Then shall all bondage cease, all fetters fall;
And I shall find my peace, my all in all.
