Look! look! look and live!
There is life for a look at the Crucified One,

If on Jesus thy guilt was not laid?
Oh, why from His side flowed the sin-cleansing blood,
If His dying thy debt has not paid?Refrain
It is not thy tears of repentance or prayers,
But the blood, that atones for the soul;
On Him, then, who shed it, thou mayest at once
Thy weight of iniquities roll.Refrain
Then doubt not thy welcome, since God has declared
There remaineth no more to be done;
That once in the end of the world He appeared,
And completed the work He begun.Refrain
Then take with rejoicing from Jesus at once
The life everlasting He gives;
And know with assurance thou never canst die,
Since Jesus, thy righteousness, lives.Refrain

The anthem of Thy praise to roll.Our prayers assist; accept our praise;

Baptized into Thy Name most holy,
O Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
I claim a place, though weak and lowly,
Among Thy seed, Thy chosen host.
Buried with Christ and dead to sin,
Thy Spirit now shall live within.My loving Father, Thou dost take me
To be henceforth Thy child and heir;
My faithful Savior, Thou dost make me
The fruit of all Thy sorrows share;
Thou, Holy Ghost, wilt comfort me
When darkest clouds around I see.And I have vowed to fear and love Thee
And to obey Thee, Lord, alone;
Because the Holy Ghost did move me,
I dared to pledge myself Thine own,
Renouncing sin to keep the faith
And war with evil unto death.My faithful God, Thou failest never,
Thy cov’nant surely will abide;
Oh, cast me not away forever
Should I transgress it on my side!
Tho’ I have oft my soul defiled,
Do Thou forgive, restore, Thy child.Yea, all I am and love most dearly
I offer now, O Lord, to Thee.
Oh, let me make my vows sincerely
And help me Thine own child to be!
Let naught within me, naught I own,
Serve any will but Thine alone.And never let my purpose falter,
O Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
But keep me faithful to Thine altar
Till Thou shalt call me from my post.
So unto Thee I live or die
And praise Thee evermore on high.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Mat 28:19] Disciples Of All Nations
Disciples of all nations,
The Lord calls us to make,
Baptizing new believers
And making idols shake.
He shows us the examples,
Of how we should respond,
In Scripture stories glorious
Of servants now long gone.Like Samuel in the temple,
When came the midnight call,
Obedient to his master,
He hurried down the hall.
Not fully understanding,
Ignoring any fears,
He gave courageous answer,
“Speak, Lord, Your servant hears.”Like Gideon of Manasseh,
We think ourselves too small,
But God the Lord is with us,
A tower that cannot fall.
We need no mighty army,
No weapons made of man;
Watch God supply the helpers,
And then reveal the plan.As Abraham gave Isaac,
As parents so may we
Be asked to give our children
For service full and free.
If asked, then, do not falter,
But send them on their way
To spread the wondrous tidings,
That night may turn to day.As Moses stood in Egypt,
And God gave words to speak,
So will He give us boldness,
Though we be frail and weak.
His Spirit will empower us
To reach the sinner’s heart
And bring the lost to Jesus,
As destined from the start.Like Samson consecrated,
If we stay true to God,
He gives us strength and power,
The Spirit’s mighty rod.
But if we fall away, then,
Our weakness will return;
So pray, stay loyal, faithful,
And God His might will lend.Like Paul, there may be suffering,
And heavy the demands,
But heed not the rejection,
And hold to His commands.
“Teach all that I have taught you,
As witnesses be true;
Tell all the world My Gospel,
And I will be with you.”Play source: Cyberhymnal -

These troops with Heav’n for home,
With creeds they go from Scotland,
With incense go from Rome.
These, in the Name of Jesus,
Against the dark gods stand,
They gird the earth with valor,
They heed their King’s command.Onward the line advances,
Shaking the hills with power,
Slaying the hidden demons,
The lions that devour.
No bloodshed in the wrestling—
But souls new born arise—
The nations growing kinder,
The child-hearts growing wise.What is the final ending?
The issue, can we know?
Will Christ outlive Mohammed?
Will Kali’s altar go?
This is our faith tremendous—
Our wild hope, who shall scorn—
That in the Name of Jesus
The world shall be reborn!Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Mat 28:19] From Greenland’s Icy Mountains
From Greenland’s icy mountains, from India’s coral strand;
Where Afric’s sunny fountains roll down their golden sand:
From many an ancient river, from many a palmy plain,
They call us to deliver their land from error’s chain.What though the spicy breezes blow soft o’er Ceylon’s isle;
Though every prospect pleases, and only man is vile?
In vain with lavish kindness the gifts of God are strown;
The heathen in his blindness bows down to wood and stone.Shall we, whose souls are lighted with wisdom from on high,
Shall we to those benighted the lamp of life deny?
Salvation! O salvation! The joyful sound proclaim,
Till earth’s remotest nation has learned Messiah’s Name.Waft, waft, ye winds, His story, and you, ye waters, roll
Till, like a sea of glory, it spreads from pole to pole:
Till o’er our ransomed nature the Lamb for sinners slain,
Redeemer, King, Creator, in bliss returns to reign.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

[Mat 28:19] Go, Preach My Gospel
“Go preach My Gospel,” saith the Lord,
“Bid the whole earth My grace receive;
He shall be saved that trusts My word,
He shall be damned that won’t believe.“I’ll make your great commission known,
And ye shall prove My Gospel true,
By all the works that I have done,
By all the wonders ye shall do.“Go heal the sick, go raise the dead,
Go cast out devils in My Name;
Nor let My prophets be afraid,
Though Greeks reproach, and Jews blaspheme.“Teach all the nations My commands,
I’m with you till the world shall end;
All power is trusted to My hands,
I can destroy, and I defend.”He spake, and light shone round His head;
On a bright cloud to Heav’n He rode;

The grace of their ascended God.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

So our brave forefathers sang,
Far across the field of battle
Loud their holy war cry rang;
Though at times they feared and faltered,
Never once they ceased to sing:

Christ our Lord shall reign as King!Great the heritage they left us,
Great the conquests to be won,
Armèd hosts to meet and scatter,
Larger duties to be done.
Raise the song they nobly taught us,
Round the wide world let it ring:
God is with us, God is with us,
Christ our Lord shall reign as King!Speed the cross through all the nations,
Speed the victories of love,
Preach the Gospel of redemption
Wheresoever men may move;
Make the future in the present,
Strong of heart, toil on and sing:

Spare us, Holy Trinity.Hear us, Son of God, O hear!
We approach Thee for our dead;
Lead them, in the vale of fear,
Be Thy wings around them spread:
Lord of life and love, we pray,
Grant them mercy in that day.Child of Mary, who didst bear,
Mortal flesh, for man to die;
Child of sorrow, toil, and care,
Grant them rest eternally.
Lord of life and love, we pray,
Grant them mercy in that day.Dweller in the vale of death,
Second Adam, source of life,
Wearer of the thorny wreath,
Victor in the deadly strife.
Lord of life and love, we pray,
Grant them mercy in that day.Thou who didst let fall the tear
On the grave of Bethany;
Who at Nain did stay the bier
That lone mother’s tear to dry.
Lord of life and love, we pray,
Grant them mercy in that day.Thou whose voice could wake the dead,
“Maid! I say to thee, arise!”
Who didst bow Thy dying hand
On the day of sacrifice.
Lord of life and love, we pray,
Grant them mercy in that day.Thou who passedst through the gloom
Which enshrouds the vale of death,
Guide their footsteps through the tomb,
Shelter them Thine arms beneath.

Grant them mercy in that day.By Thy flesh with scourges torn,
By Thy suffering human soul,
By the crown of woven thorn,
By the mocking title-scroll.
Lord of life and love, we pray,
Grant them mercy in that day.By the quiet rock-hewn cave,
Where Thy body slept so well,
When Thy Spirit, through the grave,
Entered to the realms of hell:
Lord of life and love, we pray,
Grant them mercy in that day.By Thy preaching of the Christ
To the souls in prison bound,
When was rolled away the mist
Which had hung their vision round.
Lord of life and love, we pray,
Grant them mercy in that day.By the eternal sacrifice
Which Thou pleadest at the throne,
Only gift which can suffice,
For that gift is all Thine own.
Lord of life and love, we pray,
Grant them mercy in that day.By the offering which we plead,
One with Thine in Heaven above,
By the Lamb whose five wounds bled,
To fill full our cup of love.
Lord of life and love, we pray,
Grant them mercy in that day.In the fell and fearful day,
Day of fury and of ire,
When the earth shall melt away
In the thunder-blast of fire.
Lord of life and love, we pray,
Grant them mercy in that day.When to hear the doom are met
Saints and sinners, quick and dead,
And the great white throne is set,
And the books are open spread.

Grant them mercy in that day.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

Though my foes may be strong and ruthless, still I dare to trust Thy grace.
Though the cross my path o’ershadow, Thou didst bear it once for me.

For He seeketh ever
In our hearts to dwell.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Mat 28:20] Your Best Friend Is Always Near
When the shadows ’round you gather,
When the day is long and drear,
In the morning, or at midnight,
Your best Friend is always near.Refrain
Always near, always near,
Your best Friend is always near;
In your gladness, in your sadness,
Your best Friend is always near.When your courage almost fails you,
When you need a word of cheer,
There is One who will not leave you:
Your best Friend is always near.Refrain
When your fondest hopes have perished,
When so freely falls the tear,
He who knows and feels your sorrow—
Your best Friend—is always near.Refrain
When the valley of the shadow
You are treading, do not fear;
One there is who will go with you:
Your best Friend is always near.Refrain
