John 15:13-15

• [Joh 15:13] Christ A Redeemer And Friend

  Poor, weak and worthless though I am I have a rich almighty Friend; Jesus, the Savior, is His Name; He freely loves, and without end. He ransomed me from hell with blood, And by His power my foes controlled; He found me wandering far from God, And brought me to His chosen fold. He cheers my heart, my wants supplies, And says that I shall shortly be, Enthroned with Him above the skies; O what a Friend is Christ to me! But, ah! my inmost spirit mourns; And well my eyes with tears may swim, To think of my perverse returns: I’ve been a faithless friend to Him. Often my gracious Friend I grieve, Neglect, distrust, and disobey; And often Satan’s lies believe Sooner than all my Friend can say. He bids me always freely come, And promises whate’er I ask: But I am straitened, cold and dumb, And count my privilege a task Before the world that hates His course, My treach’rous heart has throbbed with shame; Loath to forego the worlds applause, I hardly dare avow His Name. Sure, were I not most vile and base, I could not thus my Friend requite! And were not He the God of grace, He’d frown and spurn me from His sight.

• [Joh 15:13] I Vow To Thee, My Country

  I vow to thee, my country—all earthly things above— Entire and whole and perfect, the service of my love; The love that asks no question, the love that stands the test, That lays upon the altar the dearest and the best; The love that never falters, the love that pays the price, The love that makes undaunted the final sacrifice. And there’s another country, I’ve heard of long ago— Most dear to them that love her, most great to them that know; We may not count her armies, we may not see her King; Her fortress is a faithful heart, her pride is suffering; And soul by soul and silently her shining bounds increase, And her ways are ways of gentleness, and all her paths are peace.

  Jesus is my best of friends, None like Him ’mongst mortals born; And shall I whom He defends, Join the world, His goodness scorn? Naught shall raise a parting line To hold me from His tend’rest love; One shall be His will and mine Lifelong here, for aye above. Once He suffered death for me; In that death He conquered sin, Him redeeming still I see; Wondrous strength from Him I win. Who could sullen, sit complaining, Knowing Christ has sealed his bliss? Who, the ransom gift disdaining, E’er could fly such love as His? In that well proved love I bide; Naught from Him this heart shall sever. Angel glory, mortal pride, Wealth or want shall part us never. Depth below nor heights above, E’er shall hold my soul enticed, Luring from a Father’s love Mine henceforth in Jesus Christ.

• [Joh 15:13] O Valiant Hearts

  O valiant hearts who to your glory came Through dust of conflict and through battle flame; Tranquil you lie, your knightly virtue proved, Your memory hallowed in the land you loved. Proudly you gathered, rank on rank, to war As who had heard God’s message from afar; All you had hoped for, all you had, you gave, To save mankind—yourselves you scorned to save. Splendid you passed, the great surrender made; Into the light that nevermore shall fade; Deep your contentment in that blest abode, Who wait the last clear trumpet call of God. Long years ago, as earth lay dark and still, Rose a loud cry upon a lonely hill, While in the frailty of our human clay, Christ, our Redeemer, passed the self same way. Still stands His Cross from that dread hour to this, Like some bright star above the dark abyss; Still, through the veil, the Victor’s pitying eyes Look down to bless our lesser Calvaries. These were His servants, in His steps they trod, Following through death the martyred Son of God: Victor, He rose; victorious too shall rise They who have drunk His cup of sacrifice. O risen Lord, O Shepherd of our dead, Whose cross has bought them and Whose staff has led, In glorious hope their proud and sorrowing land Commits her children to Thy gracious hand.

The man who trusts in Him is blest And finds in Him eternal rest; This world’s allurements we despise And fix on Christ alone our eyes. Hallelujah! We therefore heartily rejoice And sing His praise with cheerful voice; He captive led captivity, From bitter death He set us free. Hallelujah! Through Him we heirs of Heaven are made; O Brother, Christ, extend Thine aid That we may firmly trust in Thee And through Thee live eternally. Hallelujah!

• [Joh 15:13] What A Friend We Have In Jesus

  What a Friend we have in Jesus, all our sins and griefs to bear! What a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer! O what peace we often forfeit, O what needless pain we bear, All because we do not carry everything to God in prayer. Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere? We should never be discouraged; take it to the Lord in prayer. Can we find a friend so faithful who will all our sorrows share? Jesus knows our every weakness; take it to the Lord in prayer. Are we weak and heavy laden, cumbered with a load of care? Precious Savior, still our refuge, take it to the Lord in prayer. Do your friends despise, forsake you? Take it to the Lord in prayer! In His arms He’ll take and shield you; you will find a solace there. Blessed Savior, Thou hast promised Thou wilt all our burdens bear May we ever, Lord, be bringing all to Thee in earnest prayer. Soon in glory bright unclouded there will be no need for prayer Rapture, praise and endless worship will be our sweet portion there.

  What wondrous love is this, O my soul, O my soul! What wondrous love is this, O my soul! What wondrous love is this that caused the Lord of bliss To bear the dreadful curse for my soul, for my soul, To bear the dreadful curse for my soul. When I was sinking down, sinking down, sinking down, When I was sinking down, sinking down, When I was sinking down beneath God’s righteous frown, Christ laid aside His crown for my soul, for my soul, Christ laid aside His crown for my soul. To God and to the Lamb, I will sing, I will sing; To God and to the Lamb, I will sing. To God and to the Lamb Who is the great “I Am”; While millions join the theme, I will sing, I will sing; While millions join the theme, I will sing. And when from death I’m free, I’ll sing on, I’ll sing on; And when from death I’m free, I’ll sing on. And when from death I’m free, I’ll sing and joyful be; And through eternity, I’ll sing on, I’ll sing on; And through eternity, I’ll sing on.

  He wants not friends that hath Thy love, And may converse and walk with Thee; And with Thy saints here and above, With whom forever I must be. In the communion of the saints Is wisdom, safety and delight; And, when my heart declines and faints, It’s raised by their heat and light. As for my friends, they are not lost; The several vessels of Thy fleet, Though parted now, by tempests tossed, Shall safely in the haven meet. Still we are centered all in Thee, Members, though distant, of one head; In the same family we be, By the same faith and Spirit led. Before Thy throne we daily meet As joint petitioners to Thee; In spirit we each other greet, And shall again each other see. The heav’nly hosts, world without end, Shall be my company above; And Thou, my best and surest Friend, Who shall divide me from Thy love?
