The voices echo nearer, In flaming hope they sing: “Throw down your branches at His feet! Hosanna to the King!” Once more beside a city The Son of David waits, Once more the children throng to bring A welcome at the gates. Within are hearts sore burdened And feet that go astray; O Christ of God, come near and walk Our city streets today! The branches that we offer Are no unmeaning sign; Take Thou the hands we lift on high And make them wholly Thine. No songs of shallow welcome Are these we raise to Thee; O give us faith to face the cross And set Thy city free! A distant music mingles With all our songs today, The chorale from a city fair Where sin has passed away. There rides the Christ triumphant And victor songs ring clear; O God, give us the strength to build With Christ that city here!

Death seemed all conquering when he bound The Lord of life in prison; The sight of death was nowhere found When Christ again was risen; Wherefore praise Him night and day, Him Who took death’s sting away.

  Come, for the feast is spread, hark to the call; Come to the living Bread, offered to all. Come to His house of wine, low on His breast recline, All that He has is thine; come, sinner, come. Come where the fountain flows, river of life; Healing for all thy woes, doubting, and strife. Millions have been supplied; no one was e’er denied; Come to the crimson tide; come, sinner, come. Come to the throne of grace, boldly draw near; He who would win the race must tarry here. Whate’er thy want may be, here is the grace for thee, Jesus thine only plea; come, sinner, come.

  Where cross the crowded ways of life, Where sound the cries of race and clan Above the noise of selfish strife, We hear your voice, O Son of Man. In haunts of wretchedness and need, On shadowed thresholds dark with fears, From paths where hide the lures of greed, We catch the vision of Your tears. From tender childhood’s helplessness, From woman’s grief, man’s burdened toil, From famished souls, from sorrow’s stress, Your heart has never known recoil. The cup of water given for You, Still holds the freshness of Your grace; Yet long these multitudes to view The sweet compassion of Your face. O Master, from the mountainside Make haste to heal these hearts of pain; Among these restless throngs abide; O tread the city’s streets again. Till sons of men shall learn Your love And follow where Your feet have trod, Till, glorious from Your Heaven above, Shall come the city of our God!

  God of the living, in Whose eyes Unveiled Thy whole creation lies, All souls are Thine, we must not say That those are dead who pass away; From this our world of flesh set free, We know them living unto Thee. Released from earthly toil and strife, With Thee is hidden still their life; Thine are their thoughts, their works, their powers, All Thine, and yet most truly ours; For well we know, where’er they be, Our dead are living unto Thee. Not spilt like water on the ground, Not wrapped in dreamless sleep profound, Not wandering in unknown despair, Beyond Thy voice, Thine Arm, Thy care; Not left to lie like fallen tree— Not dead, but living, unto Thee. Thy Word is true, Thy will is just; To Thee we leave them, Lord, in trust; And bless Thee for the love which gave Thy Son to fill a human grave; That none might fear that world to see Where all are living unto Thee. O Breather into man of breath, O Holder of the keys of death, O Giver of the life within, Save us from death, the death of sin, That body, soul, and spirit be Forever living unto Thee.

O cradled He was in a manger! For lowly and poor was He, Whose throne is the splendors of heaven Whose pow’r is infinity; And He bore His cross to save us, To save us from death and sin, And He trod all alone the winepress To make us pure and clean. In glory the hosts of the angels Came singing His song of praise, And filling the heav’ns with their music In those wonderful old days; Singing “Glory to God in the highest!” And “peace upon earth,” And the mighty chorus of voices Pealed forth “Good will to all.” “O how shall I keep my Christmas?” As they keep it in heaven above; O keep it with peace and thanksgiving, And kindliest deed of love; And share with the poor and needy The joys which the Lord gives thee; And thy heart shall keep with the angels The Lord’s nativity.

Take care, said Jesus clearly, for many will appear; They’ll claim to be Messiah, yet people should not fear. For in the days of Noah, the people went along In eating and in drinking, in merriment and song— Then suddenly the world changed with great, surprising power; So too will be Christ’s coming, and no one knows the hour. So keep awake and watchful; salvation is at hand! Our hope is in Christ Jesus, and by God’s grace we stand. The night is almost over, we wait for God’s new day, And through the Holy Spirit, we follow Jesus’ way.

Refrain The old Book and the old faith Are the Rock on which I stand! The old Book and the old faith Are the bulwark of the land! Thro’ storm and stress they stand the test In every clime and nation blessed; The old Book and the old faith Are the hope of every land! ’Tis the Book that tells us of the Father’s love, When He sent His Son to us from Heav’n above, Who by richest promise creates hope within, For ’tis through His blood we are saved from every sin! Refrain ’Tis the Book that tells us of the will of God And the Savior’s teachings while the earth He trod— How He soothed earth’s sorrows and relieved its woe, Through Whom strength is given to conquer every foe! Refrain ’Tis the Book that tells us of eternal life, After faithful service in a world of strife, And this glorious triumph over death’s dark fears Is the world’s best gift in an age of countless tears. Oh, the grand old Book and the dear old faith Are the Rock on which I stand! Oh, the grand old Book and the dear old faith Are the hope of every land!

Refrain Onward, then, and fear not, Children of the day; For His Word shall never, Never pass away. “I, the Lord, am with thee, Be thou not afraid; I will help and strengthen Be thou not dismayed.

  The starry firmament on high, And all the glories of the sky, Yet shine not to Thy praise, O Lord, So brightly as Thy written Word. The hopes that holy Word supplies, Its truths divine and precepts wise, In each a heavenly beam I see, And every beam conducts to Thee. Almighty Lord, the sun shall fail, The moon forget her nightly tale, And deepest silence hush on high, The radiant chorus of the sky. But, fixed, for everlasting years, Unmoved amid the wreck of spheres, Thy Word shall shine in cloudless day, When Heaven and earth have passed away.

• [Mat 25:10] Too Late

  Too late? Ah, no, the pulse of life still throbs within thy breast; And while that blessèd spark remains, thy soul may find a rest. The Lord in mercy spares thee yet, His love to thee is great; But do not tempt that love too far, or it may be too late. Refrain Too late, too late, Soon ’twill be too late; Too late, too late, Soon ’twill be too late. He stands, He knocks, He calls, He waits, He tarries at thy heart; Canst thou reject His gracious call? And wilt thou say depart? O, think on what a slender thread this moment hangs thy fate; Arise—admit thy heav’nly Guest, or it may be too late. Refrain Behold His hands, His bleeding side, His crown of thorns behold! And let His arms, extended wide, Thy trembling form enfold. His mercy lengthens out thy days, His love to thee is great; O, do not tempt that love too far, or it may be too late. Refrain

  Wake, awake, for night is flying; The watchmen on the heights are crying: Awake, Jerusalem, at last! Midnight hears the welcome voices And at the thrilling cry rejoices; Come forth, ye virgins, night is past; The Bridegroom comes, awake; Your lamps with gladness take; Alleluia! And for His marriage feast prepare For ye must go and meet Him there. Zion hears the watchmen singing, And all her heart with joy is springing; She wakes, she rises from her gloom; For her Lord comes down all glorious, The strong in grace, in truth victorious. Her Star is risen, her Light is come. Ah come, Thou blessèd One, God’s own belovèd Son: Alleluia! We follow till the halls we see Where Thou hast bid us sup with Thee. Now let all the heavens adore Thee, And saints and angels sing before Thee, With harp and cymbal’s clearest tone; Of one pearl each shining portal, Where we are with the choir immortal Of angels round Thy dazzling throne; Nor eye hath seen, nor ear hath yet attained to hear What there is ours, but we rejoice and sing to Thee Our hymn of joy eternally.

  Hark! A voice divides the sky, happy are the faithful dead! In the Lord who sweetly die, they from all their toils are freed; Them the Spirit hath declared blessed, unutterably blessed; Jesus is their great reward, Jesus is their endless rest. Followed by their works, they go where their Head has gone before; Reconciled by grace below, grace has opened mercy’s door; Justified through faith alone, here they knew their sins forgiven, Here they laid their burden down, hallowed, and made fit for heaven. Who can now lament the lot of a saint in Christ deceased? Let the world, who know us not, call us hopeless and unblessed: When from flesh the spirit freed hastens homeward to return, Mortals cry, “A man is dead!” Angels sing, “A child is born!” Born into the world above, they our happy brother greet, Bear him to the throne of love, place him at the Savior’s feet; Jesus smiles, and says, “Well done, good and faithful servant thou; Enter, and receive thy crown, reign with Me triumphant now.” Angels catch the approving sound, bow, and bless the just award; Hail the heir with glory crowned, now rejoicing with his Lord: Fuller joys ordained to know, waiting for the general doom, When the archangel’s trump shall blow, “Rise, ye dead, to judgment come!”

  “Servant of God, well done! Rest from thy loved employ; The battle fought, the victory won, Enter thy Master’s joy.” The voice at midnight came; He started up to hear; A mortal arrow pierced his frame: He fell, but felt no fear. Tranquil amid alarms, It found him on the field, A veteran, slumbering on his arms, Beneath his red cross shield. His sword was in his hand, Still warm with recent fight, Ready that moment, at command, Through rock and steel to smite. The pains of death are past, Labor and sorrow cease; And, life’s long warfare closed at last, His soul is found in peace. Soldier of Christ, well done! Praise be thy new employ; And while eternal ages run, Rest in thy Savior’s joy.

No time for rest, till glows the western sky, Till the long shadows o’er our pathway lie, And a glad sound comes with the setting sun, “Well done, well done!” Come, labor on!

• [Mat 25:40] Poor Wayfaring Man Of Grief, A

  A poor wayfaring Man of grief Hath often crossed me on my way, Who sued so humbly for relief That I could never answer nay. I had not power to ask his name, Whereto he went, or whence he came; Yet there was something in his eye That won my love; I knew not why. Once, when my scanty meal was spread, He entered; not a word he spake, Just perishing for want of bread. I gave him all; he blessed it, brake, And ate, but gave me part again. Mine was an angel’s portion then, For while I fed with eager haste, The crust was manna to my taste. I spied him where a fountain burst Clear from the rock; his strength was gone. The heedless water mocked his thirst; He heard it, saw it hurrying on. I ran and raised the suff’rer up; Thrice from the stream he drained my cup, Dipped and returned it running o’er; I drank and never thirsted more. ’Twas night; the floods were out; it blew A winter hurricane aloof. I heard his voice abroad and flew To bid him welcome to my roof. I warmed and clothed and cheered my guest And laid him on my couch to rest; Then made the earth my bed, and seemed In Eden’s garden while I dreamed. Stripped, wounded, beaten nigh to death, I found him by the highway side. I roused his pulse, brought back his breath, Revived his spirit, and supplied Wine, oil, refreshment—he was healed. I had myself a wound concealed, But from that hour forgot the smart, And peace bound up my broken heart. In pris’n I saw him next, condemned To meet a traitor’s doom at morn. The tide of lying tongues I stemmed, And honored him ’mid shame and scorn. My friendship’s utmost zeal to try, He asked if I for him would die. The flesh was weak; my blood ran chill, But my free spirit cried, “I will!” Then in a moment to my view The stranger started from disguise. The tokens in His hands I knew; The Savior stood before mine eyes. He spake, and my poor name He named, “Of Me thou hast not been ashamed. These deeds shall thy memorial be; Fear not, thou didst them unto Me.”

The deep, rolling river that flows to the sea Is made of the brooklet that sparkles so free. Refrain We all can do something for Jesus, Something, something, We all can do something for Jesus, Something for Jesus. A word to the erring, of kindness and love, May often remind them of Jesus; A song of our beautiful mansion above, May lead a poor wand’rer to Jesus; The acorn, when planted, though small it may be, How quickly it grows to a wide spreading tree; A lesson, dear children, for you and for me, We all can do something for Jesus. The acorn, when planted, though small it may be, How quickly it grows to a wide spreading tree. Refrain Oh! sweeter, far sweeter, than riches or fame, To feel we are working for Jesus; The cup of cold water we give in His Name, Will bring us the blessings of Jesus; The brook and the acorn, the leaf and the tree Are teaching a lesson to you and to me; No matter how simple the effort may be, We all can do something for Jesus. The brook and the acorn, the leaf and the tree Are teaching a lesson to you and to me. Refrain

When the harvest sheaves ingathered Fill thy barns with store, To thy God and to thy brother Give the more.

• [Mat 25:41] And Will The Judge Descend?

  And will the Judge descend, And must the dead arise And not a single soul escape His all discerning eyes? And from His righteous lips Shall this dread sentence sound And through the numerous guilty throng Spread black despair around: “Depart from Me, accursed, To everlasting flame, For rebel angels first prepared, Where mercy never came”? How will my heart endure The terrors of that day When earth and Heav’n before His face Astonished shrink away? But ere that trumpet shakes The mansions of the dead, Hark from the Gospel’s cheering sound What joyful tidings spread: Ye sinners, seek His grace Whose wrath ye cannot bear; Fly to the shelter of His cross And find salvation there. So shall that curse remove, By which the Savior bled; And the last awful day shall pour His blessings on your head.

  That awful day will surely come, Th’appointed hour makes haste, When I must stand before my Judge, And pass the solemn test. Thou lovely Chief of all my joys, Thou Sovereign of my heart! How could I bear to hear Thy voice Pronounce the sound, “Depart!” The thunder of that dismal word Would so torment my ear, ’Twould tear my soul asunder, Lord, With most tormenting fear. What! to be banished from my Life, And yet forbid to die! To linger in eternal pain, Yet death forever fly! O, wretched state of deep despair! To see my God remove, And fix my doleful station where I must not taste His love. Jesus, I throw my arms around, And hang upon Thy breast; Without a gracious smile from Thee My spirit cannot rest. O, tell me that my worthless name Is graven on Thy hands; Show me some promise in Thy book Where my salvation stands! Give me one kind assuring word To sink my fears again, And cheerfully my soul shall wait Her threescore years and ten.

  Woe to the men on earth who dwell, Nor dread the Almighty’s frown, When God doth all His wrath reveal, And shower His judgments down! Sinners, expect those heaviest showers, To meet your God prepare; For, lo! the seventh angel pours His phial in the air. Lo! from their seats the mountains leap, The mountains are not found; Transported far into the deep, And in the ocean drowned. Who then shall live, and face the throne, And face the Judge severe? When heaven and earth are fled and gone, O where shall I appear? Now, only now, against that hour We may a place provide; Beyond the grave, beyond the power Of hell, our spirits hide: Firm in the all destroying shock, May view the final scene; For, lo! the everlasting Rock Is cleft to take us in.

  O how can they look up to Heaven, And ask for mercy there, Who never soothed the poor man’s pang, Nor dried the orphan’s tear? The dread omnipotence of Heaven We every hour provoke; Yet still the mercy of our God Withholds the avenging stroke. And Christ was still the healing friend Of poverty and pain; And never did imploring soul His garment touch in vain. May we with humble effort take Example from above; And thence the active lesson learn Of charity and love! But chiefly be the labor ours To shade the early plant; To guard from ignorance and guilt The infancy of want; To graft the virtues, ere the bud The canker worm has gnawed, And teach the rescued child to lisp Its gratitude to God.

  The death of Jesus Christ, our Lord, We celebrate with one accord; It is our comfort in distress, Our heart’s sweet joy and happiness. He blotted out with His own blood The judgment that against us stood; He full atonement for us made, And all our debt He fully paid. That this is now and ever true He gives an earnest ever new: In this His holy supper here We taste His love so sweet, so near. His Word proclaims, and we believe, That in the supper we receive His very body, as He said, His very blood for sinners shed. A precious food is this indeed— It never fails us in our need— A heavenly manna for our soul. Until we safely reach our goal. Oh, blest is each believing guest Who in this promise finds his rest; For Jesus will in love abide With those who do in Him confide. The guest that comes with true intent To turn to God and to repent, To live for Christ, to die to sin, Will thus a holy life begin. They who His Word do not believe This food unworthily receive, Salvation here will never find— May we this warning keep in mind! Help us sincerely to believe That we may worthily receive Thy supper and in Thee find rest. Amen, he who believes is blest.

  When Peter boasted, soon he fell, Yet was by grace restored; His case should be regarded well By all who fear the Lord. A voice it has, and helping hand, Backsliders to recall; And cautions those who think they stand, Lest suddenly they fall. He said, “Whatever others do, With Jesus I’ll abide;” Yet soon amidst a murd’rous crew His suff’ring Lord denied. He who had been so bold before, Now trembled like a leaf; Not only lied, but cursed and swore, To gain the more belief. While he blasphemed he heard the cock, And Jesus looked in love; At once, as if by lightning struck, His tongue forbore to move. Delivered thus from Satan’s snare He starts, as from a sleep; His Savior’s look he could not bear, But hasted forth to weep. But sure the faithful cock had crowed A hundred times in vain; Had not the Lord that look bestowed, The meaning to explain. As I, like Peter, vows have made, Yet acted Peter’s part; So conscience, like the cock, upbraids My base, ungrateful heart. Lord Jesus, hear a sinner’s cry, My broken peace renew; And grant one pitying look, that I May weep with Peter too.

Yet, though despised and gory, I joy to call Thee mine. What Thou, my Lord, hast suffered, was all for sinners’ gain; Mine, mine was the transgression, but Thine the deadly pain. Lo, here I fall, my Savior! ’Tis I deserve Thy place; Look on me with Thy favor, vouchsafe to me Thy grace. Men mock and taunt and jeer Thee, Thou noble countenance, Though mighty worlds shall fear Thee and flee before Thy glance. How art thou pale with anguish, with sore abuse and scorn! How doth Thy visage languish that once was bright as morn! Now from Thy cheeks has vanished their color once so fair; From Thy red lips is banished the splendor that was there. Grim death, with cruel rigor, hath robbed Thee of Thy life; Thus Thou hast lost Thy vigor, Thy strength in this sad strife. My burden in Thy Passion, Lord, Thou hast borne for me, For it was my transgression which brought this woe on Thee. I cast me down before Thee, wrath were my rightful lot; Have mercy, I implore Thee; Redeemer, spurn me not! What language shall I borrow to thank Thee, dearest friend, For this Thy dying sorrow, Thy pity without end? O make me Thine forever, and should I fainting be, Lord, let me never, never outlive my love to Thee. My Shepherd, now receive me; my Guardian, own me Thine. Great blessings Thou didst give me, O source of gifts divine. Thy lips have often fed me with words of truth and love; Thy Spirit oft hath led me to heavenly joys above. Here I will stand beside Thee, from Thee I will not part; O Savior, do not chide me! When breaks Thy loving heart, When soul and body languish in death’s cold, cruel grasp, Then, in Thy deepest anguish, Thee in mine arms I’ll clasp. The joy can never be spoken, above all joys beside, When in Thy body broken I thus with safety hide. O Lord of Life, desiring Thy glory now to see, Beside Thy cross expiring, I’d breathe my soul to Thee. My Savior, be Thou near me when death is at my door; Then let Thy presence cheer me, forsake me nevermore! When soul and body languish, oh, leave me not alone, But take away mine anguish by virtue of Thine own! Be Thou my consolation, my shield when I must die; Remind me of Thy passion when my last hour draws nigh. Mine eyes shall then behold Thee, upon Thy cross shall dwell, My heart by faith enfolds Thee.

  Christ is risen from the dead! Darkness now no more shall reign; Thorns no more shall crown the head That was bowed with grief and pain: Christ the Lord, the mighty King, From our sin hath made us free.

Why should His people now be sad? None have such reason to be glad, Ad reconciled to God. Jesus, the mighty Savior, lives, To them eternal life He gives, The purchase of His blood.

  Come, see the place where Jesus lies: The last sad rite is done; With aching hearts, and weeping eyes, The faithful few are gone. They washed with tears each bloody trace, On those dear limbs that lay; Then spread the napkin o’er His face, And turned and went away. By the sealed stone with grounded spears, The guards their vigil keep: They wist not other eyes than theirs Watch o’er the Savior’s sleep. All Heaven above, all hell beneath— Bright hope, and blank dismay— Look on, to see if grisly death Can hold his mighty Prey. Now grisly death, thy powers combine! Now gird thee to the strife!

  Light’s glittering morn bedecks the sky; Heav’n thunders forth its victor cry; The glad earth shouts her triumph high, And groaning hell makes wild reply. While He, the King, the mighty King, Despoiling death of all its sting, And, trampling down the powers of night, Brings forth His ransomed saints to light. His tomb of late the threefold guard Of watch and stone and seal had barred; But now, in pomp and triumph high, He comes from death to victory. The pains of hell are loosed at last; The days of mourning now are past; An angel robed in light hath said, “The Lord is risen from the dead.” Th’Apostles’ hearts were full of pain For their dear Lord so lately slain, By rebel servants doomed to die A death of cruel agony. With gentle voice the angel gave The women tidings at the grave; “Fear not, your Master shall ye see; He goes before to Galilee.” Then, hastening on their eager way The joyful tidings to convey, Their Lord they met, their living Lord, And falling at His feet adored. Th’Eleven, when they hear, with speed To Galilee forthwith proceed, That there once more they may behold The Lord’s dear face, as He foretold.

  O sons and daughters, let us sing! The King of Heaven, the glorious King, Over death today rose triumphing. Alleluia! Alleluia! That Easter morn, at break of day, The faithful women went their way To seek the tomb where Jesus lay. Alleluia! Alleluia! An angel clad in white they see, Who sat, and spake unto the three, “Your Lord doth go to Galilee.” Alleluia! Alleluia! That night th’apostles met in fear; Amidst them came their Lord most dear, And said, “My peace be on all here.” Alleluia! Alleluia! When Thomas first the tidings heard, How they had seen the risen Lord, He doubted the disciples’ word. Alleluia! Alleluia! “My piercèd side, O Thomas, see; My hands, My feet, I show to thee; Not faithless but believing be.” Alleluia! Alleluia! No longer Thomas then denied; He saw the feet, the hands, the side; “Thou art my Lord and God,” he cried. Alleluia! Alleluia! How blessed are they who have not seen, And yet whose faith has constant been; For they eternal life shall win. Alleluia! Alleluia! On this most holy day of days Our hearts and voices, Lord, we raise To Thee, in jubilee and praise. Alleluia! Alleluia!

Come, no longer tarry, I your load will bear, Bring Me every burden, bring Me every care.” Refrain Come unto Me, I will give you rest; Take My yoke upon you, hear Me and be blessed.

  Come unto Me, when shadows darkly gather, When the sad heart is weary and distressed; Seeking for comfort from your heavenly Father, Come unto Me, and I will give you rest. Ye who have mourned when the spring flowers were taken When the ripe fruit fell richly to the ground, When the loved slept, in brighter homes to waken, Where their pale brows with spirit-wreaths are crowned, Large are the mansions in thy Father’s dwelling; Glad are the homes that sorrows never dim; Sweet are the harps in holy music swelling; Soft are the tones which raise the heavenly hymn. There, like an Eden blossoming in gladness, Bloom the fair flowers the earth too rudely pressed; Come unto Me, all ye who droop in sadness, Come unto Me, and I will give you rest.

It tells of benediction, of pardon, grace and peace, Of joy that hath no ending, of love which cannot cease. “Come unto Me, dear children, and I will give you light.” O loving voice of Jesus, which comes to cheer the night! Our hearts are filled with sadness, and we had lost our way; But He hath brought us gladness and songs at break of day. “Come unto Me, ye fainting, and I will give you life.” O cheering voice of Jesus, which comes to aid our strife! The foe is stern and eager, the fight is fierce and long; But Thou hast made us mighty and stronger than the strong. “And whosoever cometh I will not cast him out.” O welcome voice of Jesus, which drives away our doubt, Which calls us, very sinners, unworthy though we be Of love so free and boundless, to come, dear Lord, to Thee.

  I had wandered off from Heaven, On the mountains cold and gray, When I heard my Savior calling, To His lost sheep far away; How I listened as the tear drops Coursed adown like falling rain, While His tender words of promise, Made my spirit glad again. Refrain “Come, oh, come to Me,” said Jesus, Come and I will give you rest, I will take away the burden From the heavy laden breast. No matter who the wand’rer, Nor how far he’s gone astray, Behold, whosoever cometh, I will comfort him today. I was working in the temple With the Savior by my side, Where the multitude assembled, In its misery and pride; Glancing upward from my labor I just caught His distant smile, “You have placed your work between us, Come and talk with Me awhile.” Refrain Many early friends had left me, While the vacant room and chair, Were reminders of the prices I had paid down to be there; I was brooding o’er my losses When the Savior spoke to me, “You have let your sorrows settle, Like a cloud ’tween Me and thee.” Refrain Then I saw at once that Jesus Could be better far than all; He could lighten up the pathway, Could surround me like a wall; He could take the place of loved ones, Wipe the falling tears away, Turn my sorrows into laughter, Change the night-tide into day. Refrain So I heard the Savior calling, “Come thou weary one away,” And my answer quickly followed, “Lord, I’m coming home today”; Now His loving arms are round me, And my head is on His breast, While I catch His faintest whisper, And my spirit is at rest.

  With tearful eyes I look around; Life seems a dark and stormy sea; Yet, midst the gloom, I hear a sound, A heavenly whisper,“Come to Me.” It tells me of a place of rest; It tells me where my soul may flee: O to the weary, faint, oppressed, How sweet the bidding, “Come to Me.” When the poor heart with anguish learns That earthly props resigned must be, And from each broken cistern turns, It hears the accents, “Come to Me.” When against sin I strive in vain, And cannot from its yoke get free, Sinking beneath the heavy chain, The words arrest me, “Come to Me.” When nature shudders, loath to part From all I love, enjoy, and see; When a faint chill steals o’er my heart, A sweet voice utters, “Come to Me.” “Come, for all else must fall and die; Earth is no resting-place for thee; Heavenward direct thy weeping eye, I am thy Portion; come to Me.” O voice of mercy! voice of love! In conflict, grief, and agony, Support me, cheer me from above, And gently whisper, “Come to Me.”

• [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.”

  Speed Thy servants, Savior, speed them; Thou art Lord of winds and waves; They were bound, but Thou hast freed them; Now they go to free the slaves: Be Thou with them, ’tis Thine arm alone that saves. Be Thou with them, ’tis Thine arm alone that saves. Friends, and home, and all forsaking, Lord they go at Thy command, As their stay Thy promise taking, While they traverse sea and land: O be with them; lead them safely by the hand. O be with them; lead them safely by the hand. When they reach the land of strangers, And the prospect dark appears, Nothing seen but toils and dangers, Nothing felt but doubts and fears, Be Thou with them, hear their sighs and count their tears. Be Thou with them, hear their sighs and count their tears. When no fruit appears to cheer them, And they seem to toil in vain, Then in mercy, Lord, draw near them, Then their sinking hopes sustain: Thus supported, let their zeal revive again. Thus supported, let their zeal revive again. In the midst of opposition Let them trust, O Lord, in Thee; When success attends their mission, Let Thy servants humbler be: Never leave them till Thy face in Heav’n they see. Never leave them till Thy face in Heav’n they see. There to reap in joy forever, Fruit that grows from seed here sown; There to be with Him, who never Ceases to preserve His own; And with gladness give the praise to Him alone. And with gladness give the praise to Him alone.

  ’Twas the commission of our Lord, “Go teach the nations, and baptize:” The nations have received the word Since He ascended to the skies. He sits upon th’eternal hills, With grace and pardon in His hands; And sends His cov’nant with the seals, To bless the distant darkened lands. [originally …the distant British lands] “Repent, and be baptized,” He saith, “For the remission of your sins:” And thus our sense assists our faith, And shows us what His Gospel means. Our souls He washes in His blood, As water makes the body clean; And the good Spirit from our God Descends like purifying rain. Thus we engage ourselves to Thee, And seal our cov’nant with the Lord; O may the great eternal Three In Heav’n our solemn vows record!

Refrain Never a weakness that He doth not feel, Never a sickness that He cannot heal; Moment by moment, in woe or in weal, Jesus my Savior, abides with me still. Refrain

• [Mat 28:20] Never Alone

  I’ve seen the lightning flashing, I’ve heard the thunder roll. I’ve felt sin’s breakers dashing, which almost conquered my soul. I’ve heard the voice of my Savior, bidding me still to fight on. He promised never to leave me, never to leave me alone! Refrain No, never alone, no never alone, He promised never to leave me, He’ll claim me for His own; No, never alone, no never alone. He promised never to leave me, Never to leave me alone. The world’s fierce winds are blowing, temptation sharp and keen. I have a peace in knowing my Savior stands between— He stands to shield me from danger when my friends are all gone. He promised never to leave me, never to leave me alone! Refrain When in affliction’s valley I tread the road of care, My Savior helps me carry the cross so heavy to bear; Though all around me is darkness, earthly joys all flown; My Savior whispers His promise, never to leave me alone! Refrain He died on Calvary’s mountain, for me they piercèd His side. For me He opened that fountain, the crimson, cleansing tide. For me He waiteth in glory, seated upon His throne. He promised never to leave me, never to leave me alone! Refrain

• [Mat 28:20] No Distant Lord Have I

  No distant Lord have I, Loving afar to be; Made flesh for me, He cannot rest Until He rests in me. Brother in joy and pain, Bone of my bone was He; More intimate and closer still— He dwells Himself in me. I need not journey far This dearest Friend to see; Companionship is always mine; He makes His home with me.

• [Mat 28:20] O Let Him Whose Sorrow

  O let him whose sorrow no relief can find, Trust in God, and borrow ease for heart and mind. Where the mourner weeping sheds the secret tear, God His watch is keeping, though none else is near. God will never leave thee, all thy wants He knows, Feels the pains that grieve thee, sees thy cares and woes; Raise thine eyes to Heaven when thy spirits quail, When, by tempests driven, heart and courage fail. All thy woe and sadness, in this world below, Balance not the gladness thou in Heaven shalt know, When thy gracious Savior in the realms above Crowns thee with His favor, fills thee with His love.

• [Mat 28:20] O Lord, With Toil Our Days Are Filled

  O Lord, with toil our days are filled, They rarely leave us free; O give us space to seek for grace In happy thoughts of Thee. Yet hear us, little though we ask, O leave us not alone; In every thought, and word, and task, Be near us, though unknown. Still lead us, wandering in the dark, Still send us heavenly food, And mark, as none on earth can mark, Our struggle to be good.

• [Mat 28:20] Onward Will We Go

  With our Savior close beside us, Onward will we go; With His loving hand to guide us, Onward will we go. Since His truth abideth ever, And His love no power can sever, Since His promise faileth never— Onward will we go. In the strength of His salvation, Onward will we go; Heeding not the world’s temptation, Onward will we go. Though the clouds may gather o’er us, This our watchword and our chorus: “He has trod the way before us; Onward will we go.” Every trial meekly bearing, Onward will we go; Each another’s burden sharing, Onward will we go. By His mighty arm defended, By the heav’nly guards attended, Till our life work here is ended, Onward will we go.

  I must have the Savior with me, For I dare not go alone, I must feel His presence near me, And His arm around me thrown. Refrain Then my soul shall fear no ill, fear no ill, Let Him lead me where He will, where He will, I will go without a murmur, And His footsteps follow still. I must have the Savior with me, For my faith, at best, is weak; He can whisper words of comfort, That no other voice can speak. Refrain I must have the Savior with me, In the onward march of life, Thro’ the tempest and the sunshine, Thro’ the battle and the strife. Refrain I must have the Savior with me, And His eye the way must guide, Till I reach the vale of Jordan, Till I cross the rolling tide. Refrain

  To Thee, O dear, dear Savior! My spirit turns for rest, My peace is in Thy favor, My pillow on Thy breast! Though all the world deceive me, I know that I am Thine, And Thou wilt never leave me, O blessèd Savior mine. In Thee my trust abideth, On Thee my hope relies, O Thou Whose love provideth For all beneath the skies; O Thou Whose mercy found me, From bondage set me free, And then forever bound me With threefold cords to Thee. My grief is in the dullness With which this sluggish heart Doth open to the fullness Of all Thou wouldst impart; My joy is in Thy beauty Of holiness divine, My comfort in the duty That binds my life in Thine. Alas, that I should ever Have failed in love to Thee, The only one who never Forgot or slighted me! O for a heart to love Thee More truly as I ought, And nothing place above Thee In deed, or word, or thought. O for that choicest blessing Of living in Thy love, And thus on earth possessing The peace of Heav’n above; O for the bliss that by it The soul securely knows The holy calm and quiet Of faith’s serene repose!

  We bless the Triune God of Might, Our Sovereign and our Savior, Who puts our enemies to flight, And guards us with His favor! Our song goes up to Him, Above the seraphim, Where awestruck angels gaze At Him, Ancient of Days, On high He reigns, exalted. Majestic Father, ever supreme, Alone in light and glory, At Your command the heavens gleam And sing creation’s story. The wind and waves obey When Your Word bids them stay; All nature shows Your face Revealed in every place, To every heart and mind of man. Jesus, the Christ, Anointed One, Firstborn of all creation, In human flesh, yet God the Son, The Captain of Salvation! My Righteousness You are! ’Tis written in the scars That beautify Your face, Proclaiming holy grace. In You all truth and love abide. Great Spirit of the living Lord, Our Comforter and faithful Guide— You bring to us God’s out-breathed Word, Suffusing it with increate light. Convict us of our sin! Renew our hearts within! Restore salvation’s joy! Our hearts and minds employ In lives that flame with God-endued fire! Robed in pure light that knew no dawn, Three Persons, yet One Essence, Avenging sin with righteous sword drawn, Yet mercy fills Your presence! Your wrath is great, and just; But in Your grace we trust! Your lovingkindness sure Will hold our souls secure, ’Til we behold Your face at last!

• [Mat 28:20] We Leave Thy House, But Leave Not Thee

  We leave Thy house, but leave not Thee, For Thou wilt ever with us be; For time nor space can us divide, Or take us from our Shepherd’s side. Thy flock we are: Thy house our fold Where we together Thee behold; Yet, when we scatter o’er life’s fields, Thy presence sweet communion yields. The Upper Room has not decayed, Each stone has now a million made; In every land disciples meet, And see Thy wounded hands and feet. Though lamps go out, and home we turn, We feel our hearts within us burn; And, day far spent, the very street Rings, like Emmaus, with Thy feet.

  Wheresoe’er I roam thro’ valleys dreary, Over mountains, or in pathless wood, Ever with me is a Friend to cheer me, Warning, comforting as none else could. ’Tis the Shepherd, who once dying, bleeding, Still through all eternity shall live; Following His flock, protecting, feeding, He the tend’rest care doth give; Following His flock, protecting, feeding, He the tend’rest care doth give. All my needs eternally supplying, All in all to me that Friend shall be; Ev’rything for which my heart is sighing, He perceives, and helps me lovingly. Tho’ I often feel forsaken, lonely, He is ever near, for He did say: “I am with you alway,” and this only Gives me courage on my way; “I am with you alway,” and this only Gives me courage on my way. Piercèd Heart, with love o’erflowing, guide me, Help me through life’s desert find my way, Let my faith, no matter what betide me, Find assurance in Thy wounds for aye. To Thy bosom—for this life is fleeting— Take me, wash my garments in Thy blood, And arising may I, at Thy meeting, Cry with joy, “My Lord and God!” And arising may I, at Thy meeting, Cry with joy, “My Lord and God!”
