[Joh 11:11] If Death My Friend And Me Divide
If death my friend and me divide,
Thou dost not, Lord, my sorrow chide,
Or frown my tears to see;
Restrained from passionate excess,
Thou bidst me mourn in calm distress
For them that rest in Thee.I feel a strong immortal hope,
Which bears my mournful spirit up
Beneath its mountain load;
Redeemed from death, and grief, and pain,
I soon shall find my friend again
Within the arms of God.Pass a few fleeting moments more
And death the blessing shall restore
Which death has snatched away;
For me Thou wilt the summons send,
And give me back my parted friend
In that eternal day.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Joh 11:23] Within The Churchyard, Side By Side
Within the churchyard, side by side,
Are many long low graves;
And some have stones set over them,
On some the green grass waves.Full many a little Christian child,
Woman, and man, lies there;
And we pass near them every time
When we go in to prayer.They cannot hear our footsteps come,
They do not see us pass;
They cannot feel the warm bright sun
That shines upon the grass.They do not hear when the great bell
Is ringing overhead;
They cannot rise and come to church
With us, for they are dead.But we believe a day shall come
When all the dead will rise,
When they who sleep down in the grass,
Will ope again their eyes.For Christ our Lord was buried once,
He died and rose again,
He conquered death, He left the grave;
And so will Christian men.So when the friends we love the best
Lie in their churchyard bed,
We must not cry too bitterly
Over the happy dead;Because, for our dear Savior’s sake,
Our sins are all forgiv’n;
And Christians only fall asleep
To wake again in Heav’n.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

Uprising from the grave;
And every eye that meets Thee
Beholds Thee strong to save.All hail, belovèd Jesus!
For Thou, indeed, art He
Whose death from sin can free us,
Whose life brings liberty.
Hence, let our faith embrace Thee
With warmest hand and eye,
And then delight to trace Thee
Ascending up on high.O Savior, come in glory,
To raise Thy holy dead,
And end redemption’s story,
With crowns upon Thy head.

Without one stain or tear,
Shall all Thy saints adore Thee,
Midst wonder, love and fear!Play source: Cyberhymnal -

One named Lazarus was sick; his two sisters feared he’d die.
So to Jesus they sent word, hoping He would soon come nigh.
But when He received their word, two more days He did abide.
He said, “This won’t end in death; rather, I’ll be glorified.
This is for God’s glory great; through it I’ll be glorified.”Now when Jesus finally came, Laz’rus had been dead four days.
Martha went to welcome Him, asking why He’d stayed away.
She said, “Lord, if You’d been here, my dear brother still would live.
But I know that even now, all you ask, God will now give.
Though he’s dead, yet still I know, all You ask, God will now give.”“Resurrection and the life—I am both,” Jesus did say.
“He who does believe in Me, he will live beyond the grave.
He who lives, believes in Me, he will ne’er to death succumb.”
Martha said, “You are the Christ; You’re the One who was to come.
You’re the Christ, the Son of God; You’re the One Who was to come.”Martha then her sister called; Mary went to meet the Lord.
When she reached Him, knelt in tears, seeking comfort from His word.
Jesus, deeply moved, did ask, “Where have you his body laid?”
And He wept when He did see, for His love was very great.
Jesus wept and shared their grief, for His love was very great.Jesus then approached the tomb. “Take away the stone,” He said.
“But,” said Martha, “there’s a stench, for four days he has been dead.”
Jesus said, “You now will see God’s great glory—just believe.”
So they took away the stone, and he prayed, “May they believe;
Father, thank You, You have heard; may they now in Me believe.”Jesus then did give command; in a loud voice He did say,
“Laz’rus, come out of the tomb!” And the dead man did obey.
Both his hands and feet were bound, and a cloth did hide his face.
“Take the grave clothes; let him go,” Jesus said to those amazed.
“Said I not, believe and see God’s great glory in this place?”Just as Jesus gave new life to a man when he was dead,
He can do the same for all who believe what He has said.
For we all in sin are dead; resurrection life we need.
Jesus died and rose again, that we might from sin be freed.
All who put their trust in Him will not die but live indeed.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

Lord, when in Simon’s house of yore,
Thou with Thy friends didst sit at meat,
Mary the precious spikenard bore,
And poured it at Thy sacred feet.Like incense sweet, the perfume rare,
Rose through the house, and sought the skies;
And Thou didst own with blessing there
A woman’s loving sacrifice.So unto Thee, O Lord, this day,
A year of labor here we bring;
So at Thy feet the gift we lay;
Accept, O Lord, the offering.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

Toilsome and gloomy ways brightened by song;
Some deeds of kindness done, some souls by patience won,
Dear Lord to Thee, dear Lord to Thee.Some word of hope for hearts burdened with fears,
Some balm of peace for eyes blinded with tears,
Some dews of mercy shed, some wayward footsteps led,
Dear Lord to Thee, dear Lord to Thee.Thus, in Thy service, Lord, till eventide
Closes the day of life may we abide;
And when earth’s labors cease, bid us depart in peace,
Dear Lord to Thee, dear Lord to Thee.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

Once He came in blessing,

Came in likeness lowly,
Son of God most holy;
Bore the cross to save us,
Hope and freedom gave us.Still He comes within us,
Still His voice would win us
From the sins that hurt us;
Would to truth convert us
From our foolish errors,
Ere He comes in terrors.Thus if Thou hast known Him,
Not ashamed to own Him,
Nor dost love Him coldly,
But will trust Him boldly,
He will now receive thee,
Heal thee, and forgive thee.He who well endureth,
Bright reward secureth;
Come, then, O Lord Jesus,
From our sins release us;
Let us here confess Thee,
Till in Heav’n we bless Thee.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

Hosanna, loud hosanna, the little children sang;
Through pillared court and temple the lovely anthem rang.
To Jesus, who had blessed them close folded to His breast,
The children sang their praises, the simplest and the best.From Olivet they followed mid an exultant crowd,
The victor palm branch waving, and chanting clear and loud.
The Lord of men and angels rode on in lowly state,
Nor scorned that little children should on His bidding wait.“Hosanna in the highest!” that ancient song we sing,
For Christ is our Redeemer, the Lord of heaven our King.

And in His blissful presence eternally rejoice!Play source: Cyberhymnal -

And swelled their sweet hosannas high,
And blessed Him with our feeble tongues
As He, the Man of grief, went by!But Christ is now a glorious King,
And angels in His presence bow;
The humble songs that we can sing,
O will He, can He, hear them now?He can, He will, He loves to hear
The notes which loving children raise;
Jesus, we come with trembling fear:
O teach our hearts and tongues to praise!We join the hosts around Thy throne,
Who once, like us, the desert trod;
And thus we make their song our own,
Hosanna to the Son of God!Play source: Cyberhymnal -

[Joh 12:21] We Would See Jesus (1)
We would see Jesus; lo! His star is shining
Above the stable while the angels sing;
There in a manger on the hay reclining;
Haste, let us lay our gifts before the King.We would see Jesus, Mary’s Son most holy,
Light of the village life from day to day;
Shining revealed through every task most lowly,
The Christ of God, the life, the truth, the way.We would see Jesus, on the mountain teaching,
With all the listening people gathered round;
While birds and flowers and sky above are preaching
The blessedness which simple trust has found.We would see Jesus, in His work of healing,
At eventide before the sun was set;
Divine and human, in His deep revealing
Of God made flesh, in loving service met.We would see Jesus, in the early morning,
Still as of old He calleth, “Follow Me!”
Let us arise, all meaner service scorning;
Lord, we are Thine, we give ourselves to Thee.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

We would see Jesus; for the shadows lengthen
Across this little landscape of our life;
We would see Jesus, our weak faith to strengthen
For the last weariness, the final strife.We would see Jesus, the great rock Foundation
Whereon our feet were set with sovereign grace;
Nor life nor death, with all their agitation,
Can thence remove us, if we see His face.We would see Jesus; other lights are paling,
Which for long years we have rejoiced to see;
The blessings of our pilgrimage are failing;
We would not mourn them, for we go to Thee.We would see Jesus; yet the spirit lingers
Round the dear objects it has loved so long,
And earth from earth can scarce unclasp its fingers;
Our love to Thee makes not this love less strong.We would see Jesus: sense is all too binding,
And heaven appears too dim, too far away;
We would see Thee, Thyself our hearts reminding
What Thou hast suffered, our great debt to pay.We would see Jesus: this is all we’re needing;
Strength, joy, and willingness come with the sight;
We would see Jesus, dying, risen, pleading;
Then welcome day, and farewell mortal night.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

How shall I follow Him I serve?
How shall I copy Him I love?
Not from the blessèd footsteps swerve,
Which lead me to His seat above?Privations, sorrows, bitter scorn,
The life of toil, the mean abode,
The faithless kiss, the crown of thorn,
Are these the consecrated road?’Twas thus He suffered, though a Son,
Foreknowing, choosing, feeling all,
Until the perfect work was done,
And drunk the bitter cup of gall.Lord, should my path through suffering lie
Forbid it I should e’er repine;
Still let me turn to Calvary,
Nor heed my griefs, remembering Thine.O let me think how Thou didst leave
Untasted every pure delight,
To fast, to faint, to watch, to grieve,
The toilsome day, the homeless night.To faint, to grieve, to die for me!
Thou camest, not Thyself to please;
And, dear as earthly comforts be,
Shall I not love Thee more than these?Yes, I would count them all but loss,

Flesh shrinks and trembles at the cross,

With joy at Thy command,
The meanest office to receive
With meekness at Thy hand.With willing heart and longing eyes

Ready to run the weary race,
To bear the heavy weight;
No voice of thunder to expect,
But follow calm and still;

The One Belovèd’s will.Thus may I serve Thee, gracious Lord;
Thus ever Thine alone,
My soul and body given to Thee,
The purchase Thou hast won;
Through evil or through good report
Still keeping by Thy side;
And by my life or by my death
Let Christ be magnified.How happily the working days

The time of rest, draws nigh,
When all the faithful gather home,
A joyful company;

Shall His blest servants be.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
