FOREWARD
The first place, if you want Scripture, the people are supposed to come to the house of God for one purpose, that is, to worship, to sing songs, and to worship God. Thats the way God expects it. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS, January 3, 1954, paragraph 111. Theres something about those old-fashioned songs, the old-time hymns. Id rather have them than all these new worldly songs put in, that is in Christian churches. HEBREWS, CHAPTER SIX, September 8, 1957, paragraph 449. I tell you, I really like singing. DOOR TO THE HEART, November 25, 1959. Oh, my! Dont you feel good? Think, friends, this is Pentecost, worship. This is Pentecost. Lets clap our hands and sing it. Pentecostal people, everybody, try to loosen up, get that old Methodist formality out of you. Now come on, lets sing it! THE SEVENTY WEEKS OF DANIEL, August 6, 1961, paragraph 230. Oh. I just love those good, old songs, theres something about them songs that I like. You can have all of your little, chopped up songs you want to. Give me that, I like that, Past The Riven Veil, all these other pretty songs like that. I like them songs. I think singing is part of worship (yes sir), singing the praises to the Lord. All right, for our dismissing now, song, is Take The Name Of Jesus With You. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS, August 30, 1964 P.M., pages 270 and 271 Now lets close our eyes and raise our hands, and sing to Him. WHY IT HAD TO BE SHEPHERDS, December 21, 1964, paragraph 272. Does that make you feel good? How many likes to sing them old songs? I_I just love them. Dont you? . . . Doesnt that make you feel wonderful? My, my! Oh. Lets just raise our hands and just praise Him in our own way. A MAN RUNNING FROM THE PRESENCE OF THE LORD. February 17, 1965, pages 35 and 36 William Marrion Branham

When weve been there ten thousand years, Bright shining as the sun; Weve no less days to sing Gods praise Than when we first begun.
3 THEY COME (Eb)
Fear not, little flock, from the cross to the throne, From death into life He went for His own; All power in earth, all power above, Is given to Him for the flock of His love. CHORUS Only believe, only believe, All things are possible, only believe; Only believe, only believe, All things are possible, only believe. (Lord, I believe . . . ) (Lord, I receive . . .) (Jesus is here . . . ) Fear not, little flock, He goeth ahead, Your Shepherd selecteth the path you must tread; The waters of Marah Hell sweeten for thee, He drank all the bitter in Gethsemane. Fear not, little flock, whatever your lot, He enters all rooms, the doors being shut; He never forsakes, He never is gone, So count on His presence in darkness and dawn.
2 AMAZING GRACE (Ab)
They come from the East and West, They come from the lands afar, To feast with the King, to done as His guest; How blessed these pilgrims are! Beholding His hallowed face, Aglow with light divine; Blest partakers of His grace, As gems in His crown to shine. CHORUS Since Jesus has set me free, Im happy as heart can be; No longer I bear the burden of care, His yoke is so sweet to me. My soul was as black as night. But darkness has taken flight; Now I shout the victory, For Jesus has set me free. I look on the great white throne, Before it the ransomd stand; No longer are tears, no sorrow is known Nor death in that goodly land. My Saviour has gone before, Preparing the way for me; Soon well meet to part no more Thru time or eternity. The gates of that holy place Stand open by night and day; O look to the Lord who giveth more grace, Whose love has prepared the way. A home in those mansions fair His hand hath reserve for all. For the wedding feast prepare, Obeying the gracious call.
4 I LOVE HIM (C)
Amazing grace! How sweet the sound, That saved a wretch like me! I once was lost, but now am found, Was blind, but now I see. Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, And grace my fears relieved; How precious did that grace appear The hour I first believe! Through many dangers, toils and snares, I have already come; Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far, And grace will lead me home.
Gone from my heart the world and all its charms; Now, through the blood,

Im saved from all alarms; Down at the cross my heart is bending low; The precious blood of Jesus cleanses white as snow. CHORUS I love Him, I love Him Because He first loved me And purchased my salvation On Calvarys tree. Once I was lost, and way down deep in sin; Once was a slave to passions fierce within, Once was afraid to trust a loving God; But now Im cleansed from every stain through Jesus blood. Once I was bound, but now I am set free; Once I was blind, but now the light I see; Once I was dead, but now in Christ I live, To tell the world around the peace that he doth give.
5 SWEET HOUR OF PRAYER (Eb)
bless; And since He bids me seek His face, Believe His Word and trust His grace, Ill cast on Him my every care, And wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer.
6 OH, HOW I LOVE JESUS (Ab)
There is a name I love to hear, I love to sing its worth; It sounds like music in mine ear, The sweetest name on earth. CHORUS Oh, how I love Jesus, Oh, how I love Jesus, Oh, how I love Jesus, Because He first love me. (Ill never forsake Him . . . It tells me of a Saviours love, Who died to set me free; It tells me of His precious blood; The sinners perfect plea. It tells me what my Father hath in store for every day, And though I tread a darksome path, yields sunshine all the way. It tells of One whose loving heart Can feel my deepest woe, Who in each sorrow bears a part, That none can bear below.
7 WHEN THE REDEEMED GATHER (G)
Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer, That calls me from a world of care, And bids me, at my Fathers throne, Make all my wants and wishes known; In seasons of distress and grief, My soul has often found relief, And oft escaped the tempters snare, By thy return, sweet hour of prayer. Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer, The joy I feel, the bliss I share, Of those whose anxious spirits burn With strong desires for thy return! With such I hasten to the place Where God, my Saviour, shows His face, And gladly take my station there, And wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer. Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer, Thy wings shall my petition bear To Him whose truth and faithfulness Engage the waiting soul to

Washed like the snow, and free from all sin; How we will shout, and how we will sing, When the redeemed are gathering in. There will be a great procession over on the streets of gold, When the redeemed are gathering in; O what music, O what singing, oer the city will be rolled. When the redeemed are gathering in. Saints will sing redemptions story with their voices clear and strong, When the redeemed are gathering in; Then the angels all will listen, For they cannot join that song, When the redeemed are gathering in. Then the Saviour will give orders to prepare the banquet board, When the redeemed are gathering in; And well hear His invitation, Come, ye blessed of the Lord, When the redeemed are gathering in.
8 OH, I WANT TO SEE HIM (Ab)
When in service for my Lord, dark may be the night. But Ill cling more close to Him, He will give me light; Satans snares may vex my soul, turn my thoughts aside; But my Lord goes ahead, leads whateer betide. When in valleys low I look toward the mountain height, And behold my Saviour there, leading in the fight. With a tender hand outstretched toward the valley low; Guiding me, I can see, as I onward go. When before me billows rise from the mighty deep. Then my Lord directs my bark, He doth safely keep. And He leads me gently on through this world below; Hes a real Friend to me, O I love Him so.
9 FEELING SO MUCH BETTER (F)
Feeling so much better talking about this food old Way, Feeling so much better talking about the Lord; Lets go on, lets go on talking about this good old Way, Lets go on, lets go on talking about the Lord. The devil he dont like it, talking about this good old Way. The devil he dont like it, talking about the Lord; So, lets go on, lets go on talking bout this good old Way, Lets go on, lets go on talking about the Lord.
10 TEACH ME, LORD, TO WAIT (F)
As I journey through the land, singing as I go, Pointing souls to Calvary, to the crimson flow, Many arrows pierce my soul from without, within; But my Lord leads me on, through Him I must win. CHORUS Oh. I want to see Him, look upon His face. There to sing forever of His saving grace; On the streets of Glory let me lift my voice. Cares all past, home at last, ever to rejoice.
Teach me, Lord, to wait down on my knees. Till in Your own good time You answer my pleas; Teach me not to rely on what others do, But to wait in prayer for an answer from You. CHORUS They that wait upon the Lord, shall renew their strength,

11 HALLELUJAH, WE SHALL RISE (Bb)
In the resurrection morning, We shall meet Him in the air, We shall rise, ( Hallelujah! ) we shall rise! And be carried up to glory, To our home so bright and fair, We shall rise, ( Hallelujah! ) we shall rise.
12 WEAR A CROWN (Ab)
Am I a soldier of the cross, A follower of the Lamb, And shall I fear to won His cause, Or blush to speak His Name? CHORUS And when the battles over, we shall wear a crown! Yes, we shall wear a crown! Yes, we shall wear a crown In the new Jerusalem. Wear a crown, wear a crown. And when the battles over, we shall wear a crown In the new Jerusalem. Must I be carried to the skies On flowry beds of ease, While others fought to win the prize, And sailed through bloody seas? Are there no foes for me to face? Must I not stem the flood? Is this vile world a friend to grace To help me on to God? Sure I must fight if I would reign, Increase my courage, Lord; Ill bear the toil, endure the pain, Supported by Thy Word.
13 MARVELOUS GRACE (F)
In the resurrection morning, When the trump of God shall sound, We shall rise, ( Hallelujah! ) we shall rise! Then the saints will come rejoicing And no tears will eer be found, We shall rise, ( Hallelujah!) we shall rise. CHORUS We shall rise, ( Hallelujah! ) We shall rise! ( Amen! ) We shall rise! ( Hallelujah! ) In the resurrection morning, When deaths prison bars are broken, We shall rise. ( Hallelujah! ) we shall rise. In the resurrection morning, What a meeting it will be, We shall rise, ( Hallelujah! ) we shall rise! When our fathers and our mothers, And our loved ones we shall see, We shall rise, ( Hallelujah! ) we shall rise. In the resurrection morning, Blessed thought it is to me, We shall rise, ( Hallelujah! ) we shall rise! I shall see my blessed Saviour, Who so freely died for me, We shall rise, ( Hallelujah! ) we shall rise.

CHORUS Grace, grace, Gods grace, Grace that will pardon and cleanse within; Grace, grace, Gods grace, Grace that is greater than all our sin. Sin and despair like the sea waves cold, Threaten the soul with infinite loss; Grace that is greater, yes, grace untold, Points to the Refuge, the Mighty Cross. Dark is the stain that we cannot hide, What can avail to wash it away? Look! There is flowing a crimson tide; Whiter than snow you may be today. Marvelous, infinite, matchless grace, Freely bestowed on all who believe; You that are longing to see His face, Will you this moment His grace receive?
14 ZIONS HILL (Ab)
While saints are singing, Home, sweet Home. Some day my labors will be ended, and all my wandrings will be oer, And all earths broken ties be mended, And I shall sigh and weep no more. Some day the dark clouds will be rifted, And all the night of gloom be past; And all lifes burdens will be lifted, The day of rest shall dawn at last.
15 WERE MARCHING TO ZION (G)
Come, we that love the Lord, And let our joys be known, Join in a song with sweet accord, Join in a song with sweet accord, and thus surround the throne, And thus surround the throne. CHORUS Were marching to Zion, Beautiful, beautiful Zion; Were marching upward to Zion, The beautiful city of God. Let those refuse to sing Who never knew our God; But children of the heavenly King, But children of the heavenly King, May speak their joys abroad, May speak their joys abroad. The hill of Zion yields A thousand sacred sweets Before we reach the heavenly fields, Before we reach the heavenly fields, Or walk the golden streets, Or walk the golden streets. Then let our songs abound, And every tear be dry; Were marching thru Immanuels ground, Were marching thru Immanuels ground, To fairer worlds on high, To fairer worlds on high.
There waits for me a glad tomorrow, Where gates of pearl swing open wide, And when Ive passed this vale of sorrow, Ill camp upon the other side. CHORUS Some day beyond the reach of mortal ken, Some day, God only knows just where and when, The wheels of mortal life shall all stand still. And I shall go to dwell on Zions hill. Some day Ill hear the angels singing, Beyond the shadows of the tomb; And all the bells of heaven ringing,

16 CLEANSE ME (F)
Search me, O God, and know my heart today; Try me, O Saviour, know my thoughts, I pray; See if there be some wicked way in me, Cleanse me from every sin, and set me free. I praise Thee, Lord, for cleansing me from sin; Fulfill Thy Word, and make me pure within; Fill me with fire, where once I burned with shame; Grant my desire to magnify Thy Name. Lord, take my life, and make it wholly Thine; Fill my poor heart with Thy great love divine; Take all my will, my passion, self and pride; I now surrender; Lord, in me abide. O Holy Ghost, revival comes from Thee; Send a revival, start the work in me; Thy Word declares Thou wilt supply our need; For blessing now, O Lord, I humbly plead.
For My sheep know My voice. My sheep know My voice, And the pastures of green, Where I lead them so often to feed; My sheep know My voice, And the cool sparkling stream, Where beside its still waters I lead. My sheep know My voice, And the valley of death, Thru which I shall lead them some day; But no danger nor harm Can touch one of them, For I will be with them always.
18 ONWARD, CHRISTIAN SOLDIER (Eb)
Onward Christian soldiers! Marching as to war, With the cross of Jesus Going on before; Christ, the royal Master, Leads against the foe; Forward into battle, See, His banners go! CHORUS Onward, Christian soldiers! Marching as to war, With the cross of Jesus Going on before. Like a mighty army Moves the Church of God; Brothers, we are treading Where the saints have trod; We are not divided, All one body we: One in hope and doctrine, One in charity. Crowns and thrones may perish, Kingdoms rise and wane; But the Church of Jesus Constant will remain; Gates of hell can never Gainst that church prevail; We have Christs own promise, Which can never fail. At the sign of triumph, Satans host doth flee; Oh, then Christian soldiers, On to victory! Hells foundations quiver At the shout of praise;
My sheep know My voice, And the path that I take, They follow wherever I go; My sheep know My voice And come at My call, But a strangers voice do they not know.
CHORUS My sheep know My voice, And day by day, They abide in the fold, And go not astray; They love Me because I have made them My choice, And they follow My call,

21 THE FIGHT IS ON (C)
The fight is on, the trumpet sound is ringing out, The cry To arms is heard afar and near; The Lord of hosts is marching on to victory, The triumph of the right will soon appear. CHORUS The fight is on, O Christian soldiers, And face to face in stern array, With armor gleaming, and colors streaming, The right and wrong engage today; The fight is on, but be not weary, Be strong and in his might hold fast; If God be for us, his banner oer us, Well sing the victors song at last. The fight is on, arouse ye soldiers brave and true, Jehovah leads, and victry will assure; Go buckle on the armor God has given you. And in his strength unto the end endure. The Lord is leading on to certain victory, The bow of promise spans the eastern sky; His glorious name in every land shall honored be, The morn will break, the dawn of peace is nigh.

CHORUS Therell be singing, Therell be shouting, Therell be sorrow, therell be pain, Therell be weeping, therell be praying, When our Lord shall come again. 2 Will his coming bring rejoicing? Or will it bring tears and pain? Are you ready to receive Him. When our Lord shall come again? 3 Will you join in lamentation? Or the angels glad refrain? Will you help His people crown Him, When our Lord shall come again? 4 Work and pray till Jesus calls you. Help to gather in the grain then with
I heard an old, old story, How a Saviour came from glory, how he gave His life on Calvary To save a wretch like me; I heard about His groaning, Of His precious bloods atoning, Then I repented of my sins And won the victory.

CHORUS O victory in Jesus. My Saviour, forever, He sought me and bought me With His redeeming blood; He loved me ere I knew Him And all my love is due Him, He plunged me to victory, Beneath the cleansing flood. I heard about His healing, Of His cleansing powr revealing, how he made the lame to walk again And caused the blind to see; And then I cried, Dear Jesus, Come and heal my broken spirit, And somehow Jesus came and brought To me the victory. I hard about a mansion He has built for me in glory, And I heard about the streets of gold Beyond the crystal sea; About the angels singing, And the old redemption story, And some sweet day Ill sing up there The song of victory.
23 MY FAITH LOOKS UP TO THEE (Eb)
I care not today what the morrow may bring, If shadow or sunshine or rain, The Lord I know ruleth oer everything, And all of my worry is vain. CHORUS Living by faith, in Jesus above, Trusting, confiding in His great love; From all harm safe in His sheltering arm, Im living by faith and feel no alarm. Though tempest may blow and the storm clouds arise, Obscuring the brightness of life. Im never alarmed at the overcast skies, The Master looks on at the strife. I know that he safely will carry me through, No matter what evils betide, Why should I then care, though the tempest may blow, If Jesus walks close to my side. Our lord will return to this earth some sweet day, Our troubles will then all be oer. The Master so gently will lead us away, beyond that blest heavenly shore.
25 I SURRENDER ALL (Eb)
My faith looks up to Thee, Thou Lamb of Calvary, Saviour divine; Now hear me while I pray, Take all my sin away, O let me from this day Be wholly Thine! May Thy rich grace impart Strength to my fainting heart, My zeal inspire; As Thou hast died for me, O may my love to Thee, Pure, warm, and changeless be, A living fire! While lifes dark maze I tread, And griefs around me spread, Be Thou my Guide; Bid darkness turn to day, Wipe sorrows tears away, Nor let me ever stray From Thee aside.
All to Jesus I surrender, All to Him I freely give; I will ever love and trust Him, In His presence daily live. CHORUS I surrender all, I surrender all, All to Thee, my blessed Saviour, I surrender all. All to Jesus I surrender, Humbly at His feet I bow, Worldly pleasures all

All to Jesus I surrender, make me, Saviour, wholly Thine; Let me feel the Holy Spirit, Truly know that Thou art mine. All to Jesus I surrender, Lord, I give myself to Thee; Fill me with Thy love and power, Let Thy blessing fall on me. All to Jesus I surrender, Now I feel the sacred flame; Oh, the joy of full salvation! Glory, glory to His name!
26 WHEN I REACH THAT CITY (Ab)
Tempted and tried were oft made to wonder, Why it should be thus all the day long, While there are others living about us, Never molested though in the wrong. CHORUS Farther along well know all about it. Farther along well understand why; Cheer up, my brother, live in the sunshine, Well understand it all by and by. When death has come and taken our loved ones, It leaves our home so lonely and drear; Then do we wonder why others prosper, Living so wicked year after year. Faithful till death said our loving Master, A few more days to labor and wait Toils of the road will then seem as nothing, As we sweep through the beautiful gate. When we see Jesus coming in glory, When He comes from His home in the sky; then we shall meet Him in that bright mansion, Well understand it all by and by.
28 FILL MY WAY WITH LOVE (Ab)
On the top of Mount Zion is a city And the earth with glory it doth fill; I shall look on its beauty in the morning When I reach that city on the hill. CHORUS Oh, that city on Mount Zion, Tho a pilgrim, yet I love thee still; Ill not leave thee, through the ages, When I reach that city on the hill. Im invited to come home to that city, For the Word says, Whosoever will, And Ill find there a mansion for me waiting When I reach that city on the hill. Death will never molest me in that city, Never leave me lying cold and chill; And Ill enter to live up there forever When I reach that city on the hill. So Ill stay here until my Saviour calls me, Trying daily to perform his will, Then Hell say unto me, Well done,
Let me walk, blessed Lord, in the way Thou hast gone, Leading straight to the land above; Giving cheer everywhere, to the sad and the lone, Fill my way every day with love. CHORUS Fill my way every day with love,

Soon the race will be oer, and Ill travel no more, But abide in my home above; Let me sing, blessed King, all the way to the shore, Fill my way every day with love.
29 I AM RESOLVED (Bb)
Taught by the Bible, led by the Spirit, Well walk the heavenly way.
30 HIGHER GROUND (G)
Im pressing on the upward way, New heights Im gaining every day; Still praying as Im onward bound, Lord, plant my feet on higher ground. CHORUS Lord, lift me up and let me stand, By faith, on heavens table land, A higher plane than I have found; Lord, plant my feet on higher ground. My heart has no desire to stay, Where doubts arise and fears dismay; Tho some may dwell where these abound, My prayer, my aim, is higher ground. I want to scale the utmost height, And catch a gleam of glory bright; But still Ill pray till heavn Ive found, Lord, lead me on to higher ground.
31 STANDING ON THE PROMISES (Bb)
I am resolved no longer to linger, Charmed by the worlds delight; Things that are higher, things that are nobler, These have allured my sight. CHORUS I will hasten to Him, Hasten so glad and free, Jesus, greatest, highest, I will come to Thee. I am resolved to go to the Saviour, Leaving my sin and strife; He is the true one, He is the just one, He hath the words of life. I am resolved to follow the Saviour, Faithful and true each day; Heed what He sayeth, do what He willeth, He is the living way. I am resolved to enter the kingdom, Leaving the paths of sin; Friends may oppose me, foes may beset me, Still will I enter in. I am resolved, and who will go with me? Come, friends, without delay,
Standing on the promises of Christ my King, Through eternal ages let His praises ring; Glory in the highest I will shout and sing, Standing on the promises of God. CHORUS Standing, standing, Standing on the promises of God my Saviour, Standing, standing, Im standing on the promises of God. Standing on the promises that cannot fail, When the howling storms of doubt and fear assail, By the living

Standing on the promises of Christ the Lord, Bound to Him eternally by loves strong cord, Overcoming daily with the Spirits sword, Standing on the promises of God. Standing on the promises I cannot fall, Listning every moment to the Spirits call, Resting in my Saviour, as my all in all, Standing on the promises of God.
32 BY AND BY, MORNING COMES (F)
Trials dark on every hand, and we cannot understand, All the ways that God would lead us to that blessed Promised Land; But He guides us with His eye and well follow till we die, For well understand it better by and by. Temptations, hidden snares often take us unawares, And our hearts are made to bleed for many a thoughtless word or deed, And we wonder why the test when we try to do our best, But well understand it better by and by.
33 ROCK OF AGES (Bb)
Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee; Let the water and the blood, From Thy wounded side which flowed, Be of sin the double cure, Save from wrath and make me pure. Could my tears forever flow, Could my zeal no languor know, These for sin could not atone; Thou must save, and Thou alone; In my hand no price I bring, Simply to Thy cross I cling. While I draw this fleeting breath, When my eyes shall close in death, When I rise to worlds unknown, And behold Thee on Thy throne, Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee.
34 WHEN I SEE THE BLOOD ( C )
We are often tossed and driven on the restless sea of time, Somber skies and howling tempests oft succeed a bright sunshine; In that land of perfect day, when the mists have rolled away, We will understand it better by and by. CHORUS By and by when the morning comes, When all the saints of God are gathered home, We will tell the story how we overcome, For well understand it better by and by. We are often destitute of the things that life demands, Want of food and want of shelter, thirsty hills and barren lands; But were trusting in the Lord, and according to His Word, We will understand it better by and by.
Christ our redeemer died on the cross, Died for the sinner, paid all His due; Sprinkle your soul with the blood of the Lamb, And I will pass, will pass over you. Chiefest of sinners, Jesus will save; All He has promised, that will He do; Wash in the fountain opened for sin, And I will pass, will pass over you.

35 LOVE LIFTED ME (Bb)
CHORUS Showers of blessing, Showers of blessing we need; Mercy drops round us are falling, But for the showers we plead. There shall be showers of blessing, Precious reviving again; Over the hills and the valleys, Sound of abundance of rain. There shall be showers of blessing, Send them upon us, O Lord; Grant to us now a refreshing, Come, and now honor Thy Word. There shall be showers of blessing, Oh, that today they might fall, Now as to God were confessing, Now as on Jesus we call!
37 HAVE THINE OWN WAY, LORD (Eb)
I was sinking deep in sin, Far from the peaceful shore, Very deeply stained within, Sinking to rise no more; But the Master of the sea, Heard my despairing cry, From the waters lifted me, Now safe am I. CHORUS Love lifted me! Love lifted me! When nothing else could help, love lifted me. Love lifted me! Love lifted me! When nothing else could help, love lifted me. All my heart to Him I give, Ever to Him Ill cling, In His blessed presence live, Ever His praises sing. Love so mighty and so true, Merits my souls best songs; Faithful, loving service, too, To Him belongs. Souls in danger, look above, Jesus completely saves; He will lift you by His love, Out of the angry waves, Hes the Master of the sea, Billows His will obey; He your Saviour wants to be; Be saved today.
36 SHOWERS OF BLESSING (Bb)
Have Thine own way, Lord! Have Thine own way! Thou art the Potter; I am the clay. Mould me and make me After Thy will, While I am waiting, Yielded and still. Have Thine own way Lord! Have Thine own way! Search me and try me, Master, today! Whiter than snow, Lord, Wash me just now, As in Thy presence Humbly I bow. Have Thine own way, Lord! Have Thine own way! Wounded and weary, Help me, I pray! Power, all power, Surely is Thine! Touch me and heal me, Saviour divine! Have Thine own way, Lord! Have Thine own way! Hold oer my being, Absolute sway! Fill with Thy Spirit, Till all shall see, Christ only, always, Living in me!
There shall be showers of blessing, This is the promise of love; There shall be seasons refreshing, Sent from the Saviour above.

I am Thine, O Lord, I have heard Thy voice, And it told Thy love to me; But I ling to rise in the arms of faith, And be closer drawn to Thee. CHORUS Draw me nearer, nearer, blessed Lord, To the cross where Thou hast died; Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer, blessed Lord, To Thy precious bleeding side. Consecrate me now to Thy service, Lord, By the powr of grace divine; Let my soul look up with a steadfast hope, And my will be lost in Thine. Oh, the pure delight of a single hour That before Thy throne I spend, When I kneel in prayer, and with Thee, my God, I commune as friend with friend. There are depths of love that I cannot know, Till I cross the narrow sea, There are heights of joy that I may not reach, Till I rest in peace with Thee.
39 I AM MARKED (Ab)
I am sealed, sealed, sealed, I am sealed by His Spirit Divine; O glory to God! Hallelujah! Amen! I am His, and I know He is mine. Well, they say my life is ruined, and my talent thrown away, And they cannot understand it, for I had such plans one day; But I know what I surrendered when I promised Id go through; And I gained far more glory since God made me over new.
40 WONT IT BE WONDERFUL? (Bb)
When with the Saviour we enter the gloryland, Wont it be wonderful there? Ended the troubles and cares of the stroyland, Wont it be wonderful there? CHORUS Wont it be wonderful there. Having no burdens to bear? Joyously singing with heart-bells all ringing, O wont it be wonderful there? Walking and talking with Christ, the supernal One, Wont it be wonderful there? Praising, adoring the matchless eternal One, Wont it be wonderful there? There where the tempest will never be sweeping us, Wont it be wonderful there? Sure that forever the Lord will be keeping us, Wont it be wonderful there?
41 WINGS OF A DOVE (Eb)
I have lost my reputation since I turned my back on sin, And a lot of friends went from me, since I let my Saviour in; Now they pass me by unknown, when they once passed with a smile; Now they say Im very foolish, and they say Im out of style. CHORUS I am marked, marked, marked, I am marked now wherever I go; I am marked, marked, marked, Just what I am everyone seems to know.

Jesus has a table spread where the saints of God are fed, He invites His chosen people Come and dine; With His manna He doth feed and supplies our every need; O, tis sweet to sup with Jesus all the time! CHORUS Come and dine, the Master calleth, Come and dine; You may feast at Jesus table all the time; He who fed the multitude, turned the water into wine, To the hungry calleth now, come and dine. The disciples came to land, thus obeying Christs command, For the Master called to them, Come and dine; there they found their hearts desire, bread and fish upon the fire; Thus He satisfies the hungry every time. Soon the Lamb will take His bride to be ever at His side, All the host of heaven will assembled be; O, twill be a glorious sight, all the saints in spotless white; And with Jesus they will feast eternally.

Though clouds may gather in the sky, And billows round me roll. However dark the world may be, Ive sunlight in m soul. While walking in the light of God, I sweet communion find; I press with holy vigor on, And leave the world behind. I cross the wide extended fields, I journey oer the plains, And in the sunlight of His love I reap the golden grain. Soon I shall see Him as He is, The light that came to me; Behold the brightness of His face, Throughout eternity.

Oh, how sweet to walk in this pilgrim way, Leaning on the everlasting arms; Oh, how bright the path grows from day to day, Leaning on the everlasting arms. What have I to dread, what have I to fear, Leaning on the everlasting arms; I have blessed peace with my Lord so near, Leaning on the everlasting arms.

My heart was distressed neath Jehovahs dread frown, And low in the pit where my sins dragged me down; I cried to the Lord from the deep miry clay, Who tenderly brought me out to golden day. CHORUS He brought me out of the miry clay, He set my feet on the Rock to stay; He puts a song in my soul today, A song of praise, hallelujah! He placed me upon the strong Rock by His side, My steps were established and here Ill abide; No danger of falling while here I remain, But stand by His grace until the crown I gain. He gave me a song, twas a new song of praise, By day and by night its sweet notes I will raise; My hearts overflowing, Im happy and free, Ill praise my Redeemer, who has rescued me. Ill sing of his wonderful mercy to me, Ill praise him till all men his goodness shall see; Ill sing of salvation at home
Down at the cross where my Saviour died, Down where for cleansing from sin I cried; There to my heart was the blood applied; Glory to His name! CHORUS Glory to His name! Glory to His name!

Lose all their guilty stains, Lose all their guilty stains; And sinners plunged beneath that flood, Lose all their guilty stains. The dying thief rejoiced to see That fountain in his day; And there may I, though vile as he, Wash all my sins away. Wash all my sins away, Wash all my sins away; And there may I, though vile as he, Wash all my sins away. Thou dying Lamb, Thy precious blood Shall never lose its power, Till all the ransomed Church of God Be saved,

He preached the coming judgment of fire and brimstone; And a glorious, endless Heaven of the justified alone, As he rode across the mountains you could hear him sing this song, As he went riding on. There is power, power, wonderworking power, In the blood of the Lamb; There is power, power, wonder-working power, In the precious blood of the Lamb. His rifles old and rusty, and its hanging on the wall; His Bibles worn and dusty, and its seldom touched at all: But his Message from this Bible will meet us at Judgment Day, For Gods Truth keeps marching on.

CHORUS I shall not be, I shall not be moved. I shall not be, I shall not be moved; Just like a tree thats planted by the waters, I shall not be moved. In my Christ abiding, I shall not be moved; In His love Im hiding, I shall not be moved; Just like a tree thats planted by the waters, I shall not be moved. If I trust Him ever, I shall not be moved; He will fail me never, I shall not be moved; Just like a tree thats planted by the waters, I shall not be moved. On His word Im feeding, I shall not be moved; Hes the One thats leading, I shall not be moved, Just like a tree thats planted by the waters, I shall not be moved. Glory hallelujah, I shall not be moved; Anchored in Jehovah, I shall not be moved; Just like a tree thats planted by the waters, I shall not be moved. In His love abiding, I shall not be moved; And in Him confiding, I shall not be moved; Just like a tree thats
Oh, how sweet the glorious message, Simple faith may claim; Yesterday, today, forever, Jesus is the same. Still He loves to save the sinful, Heal the sick and lame; Cheer the mourner, still the tempest; Glory to His name! CHORUS Yesterday, today, forever, Jesus is the same; All may change, but Jesus never! Glory to His name. Glory to His name, Glory to His name; All may change, but Jesus never! Glory to His name. He who was the friend of sinners, Seeks thee, lost one, now; Sinner, come, and at His footstool Penitently bow. He who said, Ill not condemn thee, Go and sin no more; Speaks to thee that word of pardon, As in days of yore. Oft on earth He healed the suffrer By His mighty hand; Still our sicknesses and sorrows Go at His command. He who gave His healing virtue, To a

womans touch; To the faith that claims His fullness, Still will give as much. He who pardoned erring Peter, Never needst thou fear; He that came to faithless Thomas, All thy doubt will clear. He who let the loved disciple On His bosom rest, Bids thee still, with love as tender, Lean upon His breast. He who mid the raging billows, Walked upon the sea; Still can hush our wildest tempest, As on Galilee. He who wept and prayed in anguish, In Gethsemane, Drinks with us each cup of trembling, In our agony. As of old He walked to Emmaus, With them to abide; So through all lifes way He walketh, Ever near our side. Soon again we shall behold Him, Hasten, Lord, the day! But twill still be this same Jesus, As He went away.

65 ON THE OTHER SHORE (Ab)
Ive got a Father over yonder, Ive got a Father over yonder, Ive got a Father over yonder, On the other shore. Some bright day Ill go and see Him, Some bright day Ill go and see Him, Some bright day Ill go and see Him, On the other shore. Wont that be a happy meeting! Wont that be a happy meeting! Wont that be a happy meeting! On the other shore. That bright day may be tomorrow, That bright day may be tomorrow, That bright day may be tomorrow, On the other shore.
66 SHINE ON ME (Ab)
Its the old-time Holy Spirit, And the devil wont go near It, Thats the reason people fear It; But Its good enough for me. It will make you stop your lying; It will save you when youre dying; It will start the devil flying; And its good enough for me. Its so good I want no other, For It makes me love my brother; And It brings things from under cover, And Its good enough for me. (It was good in the fiery furnace . . .) (It was good for Paul and Silas . . . )
Shine on me, Lord, shine on me, Let the Light from the lighthouse shine on me; Shine on me, Lord, shine on me, Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me.

A friend when sickness lays me low, A friend when death draws near, A friend as through the vale I go, A friend to help and cheer. A friend when lifes short race is oer, A friend when earth is past, A friend to meet on heavens shore, A friend when home at last.

When the day is dark before you, And the clouds are hanging low, There is One who watches oer you, Everywhere that you may go. CHORUS Jesus is the one, yes, Hes the only one, Let Him have His way until the day is done; When He speaks, you know the clouds will have to go, Just because He loves you so.

Hes the Lily of the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star, Hes the fairest of ten thousand to my soul. Hell never, never leave me, nor yet forsake me here, While I live by faith and do His blessed will; A wall of fire about me, Ive nothing now to fear; With His manna He my hungry soul shall fill.

Hes the fairest of ten thousand to my soul.
The sands have been washed in the footprints Of the Stranger on Galilees shore, And the voice that subdued the rough billows, Will be heard in Judea no more. But the path of that lone Galilean With joy I will follow today, And the toils of the road will seem nothing, When I get to the end of the way, And the toils of the road will seem nothing, When I get to the end of the way. There are so many hills to climb upward, I often am longing for rest,

And the toils of the road will seem nothing, When I get to the end of the way, And the toils of the road will seem nothing, When I get to the end of the way. He loves me too well to forsake me Or give me one trial too much, All His people have been dearly purchased, And Satan can never claim such. By and by I shall see Him and praise Him, In the city of unending day. And the toils of the road will seem nothing, When I get to the end of the way, And the toils of the road will seem nothing, When I get to the end of the way. When the last feeble step has been taken, And the gates of that city appear, And the beautiful songs of the angels Float out on my listening ear. When all that now seems so mysterious Will be bright and as clear as the day. Then the toils of the road will seem nothing. When I get to the end of the way, Then the toils of the road will seem nothing, When I get to the end of the way.
86 ROOM AT THE CROSS (Ab)
Yes, theres room at the cross for you. Though millions have found Him a friend And have turned from the sins they have sinned.

Through sunshine or rain, through loss or in gain, The blood flows from Calvry to cleanse every stain.
87 WHEN THE ROLL IS CALLED (Ab)
When the trumpet of the Lord shall sound, and time shall be no more. And the morning breaks eternal, bright and fair; When the saved of earth shall gather over on the other shore, And the roll is called up yonder, Ill be there. CHORUS When the roll is called up yonder, When the roll is called up yonder, When the roll is called up yonder, When the roll is called up yonder, Ill be there. On that bright and cloudless morning when the dead in Christ shall rise, And the glory of His resurrection share; When His chosen ones shall gather to their home beyond the skies, And the roll is called up yonder, Ill be there. Let us labor for the Master from the dawn till setting sun. Let us talk of all His wondrous love and care; then when all of life is over, and our work on earth is done, And the roll is called up yonder, Ill be there.
The cross upon which Jesus died Is a shelter in which we can hide, And its grace so free is sufficient for me, And deep is its fountain; as wide as the sea. CHORUS Theres room at the cross for you. Theres room at the cross for you. Though millions have come, theres still room for one,

My soul in sad exile was out on lifes sea, So burdened with sin and distressed, Till I heard a sweet voice saying, :Make Me your choice; And I entered the haven of Rest! CHORUS Ive anchored my soul in the haven of rest, Ill sail the wild seas no more; The tempest may sweep oer the wild, stormy deep, In Jesus Im safe evermore. I yielded myself to His tender embrace, And faith taking hold of the Word, My fetters fell off, and I anchored my soul; The Haven of Rest is my Lord. The song of my soul, since the Lord made me whole, Has been the old story, so blest, Of Jesus, wholl save whosoever will have A home in the Haven of Rest! How precious the thought that we all may recline, Like John, the beloved and blest, On Jesus strong arm, where no tempest can harm. Secure in the Haven of Rest! O come to the Saviour, He patiently waits To save by His power divine; Come, anchor your soul in the haven of rest, And say, My Beloved is mine.
89 MUST JESUS BEAR ALONE? (Ab)
The consecrated cross Ill bear, Till death shall set me free, And then go home my crown to wear, For theres a crown for me. Upon the crystal pavement, down At Jesus pierced feet, With joy Ill cast my golden crown, And His dear name repeat. O precious cross! O glorious crown! O resurrection day! Ye angels from the stars come down and bear my soul away.

All praise to him who reigns above In majesty supreme; Who gave his Son for man to die, That he might man redeem.

(Jesus is the Name . . . ) (Magnify His Name . . . ) His name above all names shall stand, Exalted more and more, At God the Fathers own right hand, Where angel hosts adore. Redeemer, Savior, Friend of men Once ruined by the fall; Thou hast devised salvations plan, For thou hast died for all. His name shall be the Counselor, The mighty Prince of Peace, Of all earths kingdoms Conqueror, Whose reign shall never cease.
Must Jesus bear the cross alone, And all the world go free? No, theres a cross for every one, And theres a cross for me.

Lord, I have started to walk in the light. Shining upon me from heaven so bright; I bade the world and its follies adieu, Ive started in Jesus and Im going through. CHORUS Im going through, yes, Im going through. Ill pay the price whatever others do, Ill take the way with the Lords despised few, Im going through, Jesus, Im going through. O there are many who start in the race, But with the light refuse to keep pace; Others accept it because it is new, But not very many expect to go through. Id rather walk with Jesus alone, Have for a pillow, like Jacob, a stone; Living each moment with His face in view, Than shrink from my pathway and fail to go through. O brother, now will you take up the cross? Give up the world and count it as dross; Sell all thou hast and give to the poor, Then go through with Jesus and those who endure.

Speak, and Ill be quick to answer Thee; Speak, my Lord, speak, my Lord, Speak, and I will answer, Lord, send me. When the coal of fire touched the prophet, Making him as pure as pure can be. When the voice of God, said Wholl go for us? The he answered, Here I am , send me. Millions now in sin and shame are dying; Listen to their sad and bitter cry; Hasten, brother, hasten to the rescue; Quickly answer, Master, here am I. Soon the time for reaping will be over; Soon well gather for the harvest home; May the Lord of harvest smile upon us, May we hear His blessed, Child, well done.

The love of God is greater far Than tongue or pen can ever tell; It goes beyond the highest star, And reaches to the lowest hell. The guilty pair, bowed down with care, God gave His son to win; His erring child He reconciled, And pardoned from his sin. CHORUS Oh, love God, how rich and pure! How measureless and strong! It shall forevermore endure, The saints and angels song. When hoary time shall pass away, And earthly thrones and kingdoms fall; When men who here refuse to pray, On rocks and hill and mountains call; Gods love, so sure, shall still endure, All measureless and strong;
hear the Lord of harvest sweetly calling. Who will go and work for Me today? Who will bring to Me the lost and dying? Who will point them to the narrow way? CHORUS Speak, my Lord, speak my Lord,

There the doubters will be missing altogether, All the skeptics will be absent on that day; There will be no grumblers present to disturb us, And the Achans will be busy far away. There the saints will have His seal upon their foreheads, Dressed in raiment none but ransomed ones can wear; All who have the wedding garments will be present At the meeting in the air.

CHORUS There is going to be a meeting in the air, In the sweet, sweet by and by; I am going to meet you, meet you there In that home beyond the sky; Such singing you will hear, never heard by mortal ear, Twill be glorious, I do declare! And Gods own Son will be the leading one At the meeting in the air. Many things will there be missing, in that meeting; For the mourners bench will have no place at all; There will never be a sermon preached to sinners, For the sinner had refused to heed the call. There will be no mourning over wayward loved ones, There will be no

The blood of disciples who died for the Truth, This Holy Ghost Gospel is dripping with blood. There was Peter and Paul, and John the divine, They gave up their lives so this Gospel could shine; They mingled their blood, like the prophets of old, So the true Word of God could honest be told. Then they stoned Stephen, he preached against sin, He made them so angry, they dashed his head in; But he died in the Spirit, and gave up the

When Jesus comes the tempters powr is broken; When Jesus comes the tears are wiped away. He takes the gloom and fills the life with glory, For all is changed when Jesus comes to stay. From home and friends the evil spirits drove him, Among the tombs he dwelt in misery; He cut himself as demon powrs possessed him. Then Jesus came and set the captive free. Unclean! Unclean! The leper cried in torment, The deaf, the dumb, in helplessness stood near; The fever raged, disease had gripped its victim, Then Jesus came and cast out every fear. So men today have found the Saviour able, They could not conquer passion, lust and sin; Their broken hearts had left them sad and lonely, Then Jesus came and dwelt Himself within.

Long ago the maids drew water In the evening time, they say, One day Isaac sent his servant To stop Rebekah on her way, My master sent me here to tell thee; See these jewels rich and rare; Wouldst thou not his lovely bride be In that country over there? CHORUS It will be light in the evening time, The path to glory you will surely find; Thru the water way, It is the light today, Buried in the precious Name of Jesus Christ. Young and old, repent of all your sin, The Holy Ghost will surely enter in; The evening Light has come, It is a fact that God and Christ are one. So Gods servants come to tell you Of a Bridegroom in the sky, Looking for a holy people To be His bride soon, by and by; He sends to us refreshing water In this wondrous latter day; They who really will be raptured Must go thru the water way. Are you on your way to ruin, Cumbered with a load of care? See the quick work God is doing That so His glory you may share, At last the faith
When I survey the wondrous cross On which the Prince of glory died, My richest gain I count but loss, And pour contempt on all my pride. Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast, Save in the death of Christ, my God; All the vain things that charm me most, I sacrifice them to His blood. See, from his head, his hands, his feet, Sorrow and love flow mingled down; Did eer such love and sorrow meet, Or thorns compose so rich a crown?

Nicodemus came by night, to know the way of right, He asked the Son of man what must he do. These words He said to him, Ye must be born again, By the Spirit of that Man from Galilee.

Here so many are taking vacation, To the mountains, the lakes or the sea; Where they rest from their cares and their worries, What a wonderful time that must be! But it seems not my lot to be like them, I must toil thru the heat and the cold, Seeking out the lost sheep on the mountains, Bringing wanderers back to the fold. CHORUS When I take my vacation in heaven, What a wonderful time that will be; Hearing concerts by the heavenly Chorus, And the face of my Savior Ill see; Sitting down by the banks of the river; Neath the shade of the ever green tree, I shall rest from my burdens forever, Wont you spend your vacation with me. Now some day I shall take my vacation To the city John tells us about; With its foundation walls all so precious, Where from gladness of heart I shall shout! O no sights ever witnessed by mortals, Can compare with the glories up there I shall spend my vacation with Jesus, In the place He went on to prepare. There the weather will always be perfect. Not a cloud shall sweep over the sky; and no earthquakes or cyclones shall threaten, In the land of the Sweet by and by; Soon theres
Im so glad Jesus set me free, Im so glad Jesus set me free, Im so glad Jesus set me free, Glory, hallelujah, Jesus set me free. (Im so glad Jesus lifted me . . . ) (Im on my way to Heaven, shouting victory . . . )

going to be an excursion, I am booked for a ride in the air. Youre invited to share my vacation, And the feast with our Bridegroom to share. Here on earth when we take our vacation, We return to our homes by and by; When I take my vacation in heaven, In those mansions of gold in the sky. I shall dwell with my Savior forever, With Him sit on His Heavenly Throne; All the days will be one, long vacation, When my Savior takes me to His home.
110 OH, IT IS JESUS (C)
closed on the altar and the pews are all empty of folks, And each one stands facing his record and the great Book is opened What Then? When the actors have played their last drama and the mimic has made his last fun, When the film has flashed its last film and the billboard displayed its last run, When the crowds seeking pleasure have vanished and all the liquor stores and beer joints have been closed, And the salesman sold his last drink and gone out in the darkness, When the trumpet of ages is sounded and we stand before Him What Then? When the bugle call sinks into silence and the long marching columns stand still, And the captain repeats his last orders, And the flag has been hauled from the mast. And the wounded afield checked in and a world that rejects its Saviour is asked for a reason What Then?
112 FAITH IN JEHOVAH (F)
Oh, it is Jesus! Yes, it is Jesus! It is Jesus in my soul; For I have touched the hem of His garment, And His blood has made me whole.
111 WHAT THEN? (F)
When the great plants of our cities have turned out their last finished work, When our merchants have sold their last yard of goods and dismissed the last tired clerk, When our banks have raked in their last dollar and paid the last dividends, When the Judge of the earth say, closed for the night, and asks for a balance What Then? CHORUS What then? What then? When the great Book is opened, what then? When the ones thats rejecting this Message tonight, Will be asked to give a reason What Then? When the choir has sung its last song and the preacher has said his last prayer, When the people have heard their last sermon and the sound has died out in the air, When the Bible lies
Faith in the Father, faith in the Son, Faith in the Holy Ghost, these three are One; Demons will tremble, and sinners awake; Faith in Jehovah makes anything shake.
113 LEAVE IT THERE (G)
If the world from you withhold of its silver and its gold, And you have to get along with meager fare, Just remember, in His Word, how he feeds the little bird; Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there. CHORUS Leave it there, leave it there, Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there;

If you trust and never doubt, He will surely bring you out; Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there. If your body suffers pain and your health you cant regain, And your soul is almost sinking in despair, Jesus knows the pain you feel, He can save and He can heal; Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there. When your enemies assail and your heart begins to fail, Dont forget that God in heaven answers prayer; He will make a way for you and will lead you safely through; Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there. When your youthful days are gone and old age is stealing on, And your body bends beneath the weight of care; He will never leave you then, Hell go with you to the end; Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there.
114 I CAN, I WILL, I DO BELIEVE (Ab)
courage, For were not left alone; The lifeboat soon is coming To gather the Jewels home. CHORUS Then cheer, my brother, cheer, Our trials will soon be oer, Our loved ones we shall meet, shall meet, Upon the golden shore. Were pilgrims and were strangers here, Were seeking a city to come, The lifeboat soon is coming, To gather the Jewels home. Sometimes the Devil tempts me, And says its all in vain To try to live a Christian life And walk in Jesus name; But then we hear the Master say, Ill lend you a helping hand, And if youll only trust Me, Ill guide you to that land. The lifeboat soon is coming, By eyes of faith I see As she sweeps through the waters To rescue you and me. And land us safely in the port With friends we love so dear. Get ready, cries the Captain; Oh, look, shes almost here. Oh, nows the time to get on board, While she is passing by; But if you stand and wait too long, You shall forever die; The fare is paid for one and all, The Captain bids you come, And get on board the lifeboat, Shell carry you safely home.

118 THE GREAT JUDGEMENT (C)
the drunkard, And the man that had sold them the drink, With the people who gave him the license, Together in hell they did sink. The moral man came to the judgment, But his self-righteous rags would not do; The men who had crucified Jesus Had passed off as moral men, too; The soul that had put off salvation, Not tonight; Ill get saved by and by, No time now to think of religion! At last they had found time to die.
119 I HAVE CROSSED RIVEN VEIL (Ab)
I dreamed that the great judgment morning Had dawned, and the trumpet had blown; I dreamed that the nations had gathered To judgment before the white throne; From the throne came a bright shining angel, And stood on the land and the sea, And swore with his hand raised to heaven, That time was no longer to be. CHORUS And O, what a weeping and wailing, As the lost were told of their fate; They cried for the rocks and the mountains, They prayed, but their prayers were too late. The rich man was there, but his money Had melted and vanished away; A pauper he stood in the judgment, His debts were too heavy to pay; The great man was there, but his greatness, When death came, was left far behind. The angel that opened the records, Not a trace of his greatness could find. The widow was there with the orphans, God heard and remembered their cries; No sorrow in heaven forever. God wiped all the tears from their eyes; The gambler was there and

CHORUS Room, room yes, there is room, Room at the fountain for thee; Room, room, yes, there is room, Theres room at the fountain for thee. I came to Him, my sins confessed, There was room at the fountain for me; When I gave up, my heart was blest, Theres room at the fountain for thee. I plunged beneath the crimson tide, There was room at the fountain for me; And now by faith am sanctified, Theres room at the fountain for thee.

Ill praise Him while He gives me breath, There was room at the fountain for me; He saved me from an awful death. Theres room at the fountain for thee. His blood was shed but once for all, There was room at the fountain for me; Oh, dont reject sweet Mercys call, Theres room at the fountain for thee. Well sing with all the saints above, There was room at the fountain for me; And praise Him for redeeming love, Theres room at the fountain for thee.
121 COME AND GO WITH ME (Ab)
Theres a holy and beautiful city, Whose builder and ruler is God. John saw it descending from heaven When Patmos, in exile, he trod; Its high, massive wall is of jasper, The city itself is pure gold; And when my frail tent here is folded, Mine eyes shall its glory behold. CHORUS In that bright city, pearly white city, I have a mansion, a harp, and a crown; Now I am watching, waiting and longing, For the white city John saw coming down. No sin is allowed in that city, And nothing defiling nor mean; No pain and no sickness can enter, No crape on the doorknob is seen; Earths sorrows and cares are forgotten, No tempter is there to annoy; No parting words ever are spoken, Theres nothing to hurt and destroy. No heartaches are known in that city, No tears ever moisten the eye, Theres no disappointment in heaven, No envy and strife in the sky; The saints are all sanctified wholly, They live in sweet harmony there; My heart is now set on that city, And some day its blessings Ill share. My loved ones are gathering yonder, My friends, too, are passing away; And soon I shall join their bright number, And dwell in eternitys day; Theyre safe now in glory with Jesus, Their trials and battles are past; They
Come and go with me to my Fathers House, To my Fathers House, to my Fathers House. Come and go with me to my Fathers House, Where theres peace, peace, peace.

I am weak but Thou art strong, Jesus keep me from all wrong; Ill be satisfied as long, As I walk let me walk close to Thee. CHORUS Just a closer walk with Thee, Grant it, Jesus, is my plea; Daily walking close to Thee, Let it be, dear Lord, let it be. Thru this world of toil and snares, If I falter, Lord, who cares? Who with me my burden shares? None but Thee, dear Lord, none but Thee. When my feeble life is oer, Time for me will be no more; Guide me gently, safely oer, To Thy kingdom shore, to Thy shore.
125 THE MESSAGE OF HIS COMING (C)
Were longing for the glory that awaits the faithful, Who shall overcome, and every conflict win; Press ever bravely onward, the prize is life eternal To all who win the fight over sin. Were praying for the advent of our blessed Saviour, Who has promised life to all who trust His grace; His coming now is pending, the message being given. And soon well see our Lord face to face. We see the signs appearing of His blessed coming, Lo, behold the fig leaves now becoming green; The gospel of His kingdom has gone to every nation; that we are near the end can be seen.
126 THE SHEEP OF HIS PASTURE (F)
Were looking for His coming, in the clouds of heaven, Coming back to earth to catch away His own; Then may we all be ready, when midnight cry is given, To go and reign with Christ on His throne. CHORUS Gladly may we herald the message of His blessed appearing, Soon Hes coming in glory, tell to one and all; Then awake, ye saints of the Lord, why slumber when the end is nearing, But get ready for the final call.
The sheep of His pasture have gathered To hear what the Shepherd would say, His voice like the sound of slow waters, Came rippling through vessels of clay. Tis the voice that brought forth creation And set all the stars in array, And speaks words of Life and of wisdom, In the midst of His people today. Through prophets, by precious blood purchased, Cleansed and surrendered and filled. And set in the Body for service, As the Head of the Body hath willed.

Are your garments spotless? Are they white as snow? Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb? Are you walking daily by the Saviors side? Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb? Do you rest each moment in the Crucified? Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb? When the Bridegroom cometh, will your robes be white, Pure and white in the blood of the Lamb? Will your soul be ready for the mansions bright And be washed in the blood of the Lamb? Lay aside the garments that are stained with sin, And be washed in the blood of the Lamb, Theres a fountain flowing for the soul unclean, Oh, be washed in the blood of the Lamb.

129 BAPTIZED INTO THE BODY (G)
Have you been baptized into the Body? Baptized with the Holy Ghost; There is but one way to enter in it, Just as they did on Pentecost. CHORUS Are you in the Church triumphant? Are you in the Saviours Bride? Come and be baptized into the Body, And forevermore abide. There is but one Church, Bride or Body, And into it were all baptized; By the one, true, promised Holy Spirit; Though by the world were all despised. Every creed has claimed to be the Body, But the plumb line proved untrue All their dreams, for God has so determined To bring His Sons true Bride to view. Many thought that they were in the Body, Till the Holy Ghost had come; When the Word of God was opened to them, They entered in, and yet theres room. Those who died before the Holy Spirit Came upon us from on high, May, by faith with Saints of old departed, Arise to meet Him in the sky.
Jesus loves me! This I know, For the Bible tells me so; Little ones to Him belong, They are weak but He is strong. CHORUS Yes, Jesus loves me, Yes, Jesus loves me, Yes, Jesus loves me, The Bible tells me so. Jesus loves me! He who died, Heavens gates to open wide; He will

Mercy is calling you, wont you give heed? Must the dear Saviour still tenderly plead? Risk not your soul, it is precious indeed; What would you give in exchange for your soul? More than the silver and gold of the earth, More than all jewels thy spirit is worth! God, the Creator, has given it birth! What would you give in exchange for your soul? If, when you stand at the bar by and by, When you are weighed in the balance on high, You should be sentenced forever to die. What would you give in exchange for your soul?

Yes, this is like Heaven to me; Ive crossed over Jordan to Canaans fair land, And this is like Heaven to me. Oh, when I get happy, I sing and I shout, The devil dont believe It, I see; But Im filled with the Spirit, there isnt a doubt, And thats whats the matter with me.
A wonderful time is just ahead, The Lord Whom we love and own Will open the gates of gloryland Revealing His glory throne. CHORUS A wonderful time for you, A wonderful time for me; If we are prepared to meet Jesus the King, A wonderful time it will be. A wonderful time is just ahead, Our conflicts and trials passed; Our wilderness journey at an end, Safe home everyone at last. A wonderful time is just ahead, The groans of creation cease; And all that is held in bondage now The Lord will that day release.

Once my soul was astray from the heavenly way, And was wretched and vile as could be; But my Saviour above, gave me peace, joy and love, When He reached down His hand for me, for me. CHORUS When He reached down His hand for me, When He reached down His hand for me; I was lost and undone, without God or His Son, When He reached down His hand for me, for me. I was nearing despair, when He came to me there, And He showed me that I could be free; Then He lifted my feet, gave me glory complete, When He reached down His hand for me, for me. How my heart doth rejoice since I made Him my choice, From the tempest to Him now I flee; Now I lean on His arm Im secure from all harm, Since he reached down His hand for me, for me. Since the Lord gave me peace, heavenly joys never cease; Lord, I give all my life unto Thee; Guide my feet, hold my hand, grant with Thee I may stand, For you reached down your hand for me, for me.
134 BRING THEM IN (Ab)
Bring them in, bring them in, Bring them in from the fields of sin; Bring them in, bring them in, Bring the wandring ones to Jesus. Wholl go and help this Shepherd kind, Help Him the wandring ones to find? Wholl bring the lost ones to the fold. Where theyll be sheltered from the cold? Out in the desert hear their cry, Out on the mountains wild and high; Hark! tis the Master speaks to thee, Go find My sheep whereer they be.
135 HOW GREAT THOU ART (Bb)
O Lord my God! When I in awesome wonder. Consider all the worlds Thy hands have made; I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder, Thy powr throughout the universe displayed. CHORUS Then sings my soul, my Saviour God to Thee; How great Thou art, how great Thou art! Then sings my soul, my Saviour God to Thee; How great Thou art, how great Thou art! When through the woods and forest glades I wander And hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees; When I look down from lofty mountain grandeur And hear the brook and feel the gentle breeze. And when I think that God, His Son not sparing. Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in; That on the cross, my burden gladly bearing, He bled and died to take away my sin.
Hark! tis the Shepherds voice I hear, Out in the desert dark and drear, Calling the sheep whove gone astray, Far from the Shepherds fold away. CHORUS

CHORUS O Lord, send the power just now, O Lord, send the power just now; O Lord, send the power just now And baptize every one.

Would you be whiter, much whiter than snow? Theres power in the blood, power in the blood; Sins stains are lost in its life-giving flow, Theres wonderful power in the blood. Would you do service for Jesus your King? Theres power in the blood, power in the blood; Would you live daily, His praises to sing? Theres wonderful power in the blood.

My hope is built on nothing less Than Jesus blood and righteousness; I dare not trust the sweetest frame, But wholly lean on Jesus name. CHORUS On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand; All other ground is sinking sand, All other ground is sinking sand. When darkness seems to hide His face, I rest on his unchanging grace; In every high and stormy gale, My anchor holds within the veil. His oath, His covenant, His blood, Support me in the whelming flood; When all around my soul gives way, He then is all my hope and stay. When He shall come with trumpet sound, Oh, may I then in Him be found; Dressed in His righteousness alone, Faultless to stand before the throne.
Would you be free from your burden of sin? Theres power in the blood, power in the blood; Would you oer evil a victory win? Theres wonderful power in the blood. CHORUS There is power, power, wonderworking power In the blood of the Lamb, There is power, power, wonderworking power, In the precious blood of the Lamb.

CHORUS He abides, He abides, Hallelujah, He abides with me! Im rejoicing night and day, As I walk the narrow way, For the Comforter abides with me. Once my heart was full of sin. Once I had no peace within, Till I heard how Jesus died upon the tree; Then I fell down at His feet, And there came a peace so sweet, Now the Comforter abides with me. He is with me everywhere, And He knows my every care, Im as happy as a bird and just as free; For the Spirit has control, Jesus satisfies my soul, Since the Comforter abides with me!

Hear the Saviors earnest call, Jesus, the light of the world; Send the Gospel truth to all, Jesus, the light of the world. Why not seek Him then today, Jesus, the light of the world; Go with truth the narrow way, Jesus, the light of the world. Come, confess Him as your King, Jesus, the light of the world; Then the bells of heaven will ring, Jesus, the light of the world.

CHORUS It will be worth it all, when we see Jesus; Lifes trials will seem so small, when we see Christ; One glimpse of His dear face, all sorrow will erase, So bravely run the race till we see Christ. Sometimes the sky looks dark, with not a ray of light; Were tossed and driven on, no human help in sight; But there is One in heaven, who knows our deepest care, Let Jesus solve your problem, just go to Him in prayer. Lifes day will soon be oer, all storms forever past; Well cross the great divide, to glory safe at last; Well share the joys of heaven, a harp, a home, a crown; The tempter will be banished, well lay our burden down.

Wash me in the blood of the Lamb, And I shall be whiter than snow. Father, I have wandered from Thee, Often has my heart gone astray; Crimson do my sins seem to me Water cannot wash them away. Jesus,
Oft times the day seems long, our trials hard to bear; Were tempted to complain, to murmur and despair; But Christ will soon appear, to catch His bride away, All tears forever over, in Gods eternal day.

At the cross, at the cross where I first saw the light, And the burden of my heart rolled away, It was there by faith I received my sight, And now I am happy all the day! Was it for crimes that I have done, He groaned upon the tree? Amazing pity, grace unknown, And love beyond degree! Well might the sun in darkness hide, And shut his glories in. When Christ, the mighty Maker, died For man, the creatures sin. But drops of grief can neer repay The debt of love I owe; Here, Lord, I give myself away, Tis all that I can do!

Well never be hungry nor thirsty, Nor languish in poverty there. For all the rich bounties of heaven His sanctified children will share. Therell never be crape on the doorknob, No funeral train in the sky; No graves on the hillsides of glory. For there we shall nevermore die. The old will be young there forever. Transformed in a moment of time; Immortal well stand in His likeness. The stars and the sun to outshine.
150 HAPPY DAY (G)
Almost persuaded now to believe; Almost persuaded Christ to receive; Seems now some soul to say, Go, Spirit, go Thy way; Some more convenient day, on Thee Ill call. Almost persuaded, come, come today; Almost persuaded, turn not away; Jesus invites you here, Angels are lingring near, Prayers rise from hearts so dear; O wandrer, come. Almost persuaded, harvest is past! Almost persuaded, doom comes at last! Almost cannot avail; Almost is but to fail! Sad, sad, that bitter wail: Almost but lost!
149 NO DISAPPOINTMENT (Eb)
Theres no disappointment in heaven, No weariness, sorrow or pain; No hearts that are bleeding and broken, No song with a minor refrain. The clouds of our earthly horizon Will never appear in the sky, For all will be sunshine and gladness, With never a sob nor a sigh. CHORUS Im bound for that beautiful city My Lord has prepared for His own; Where all the redeemed of all ages
O happy day, that fixed my choice On Thee, my Saviour and my God! Well may this glowing heart rejoice, And tell its raptures all abroad. CHORUS Happy day, happy day, When Jesus washed my sins away! He taught me how to watch and pray, And live rejoicing every day. Happy day, happy day, When Jesus washed my sins away! O happy bond, that seals my vows To Him who merits all my love! Let

151 ONE OF THEM (Ab)
There are people almost everywhere, Whose hearts are all aflame With the fire that fell at Pentecost, Which cleansed and made them clean; It is burning now within my heart, All glory to His name! Im so glad that I can say Im one of them. CHORUS One of them, one of them. I am glad that I can say Im one of them; One of them, one of them, Im so glad that I can say Im one of them. Though these people may not learned be, Nor boast of Worldly fame, They have all received their Pentecost, Baptized in Jesus name; And are telling now, both far and wide, His power is yet the same, Im so glad that I can say Im one of them. They were gathered in the upper room, All praying in His name, They were baptized with the Holy Ghost, And powr for service came; Now what He did for them that day Hell do for you the same, Im so glad that I can say Im one of them. Come, my brother, seek this blessing That will cleanse your heart from sin, That will start the joy-bells ringing And will keep the soul aflame: It is burning now within my heart, All

If my heart is right when He calls me, If my heart is right I will hear; If my heart is right when He calls me, Ill be somewhere listning for my name. If my robe is white when He calls me, if my robe is white I will hear; If my robe is white when He calls me, Ill be somewhere listning for my name.
153 THE HOMECOMING WEEK (G)
Upon our journey here below we meet with pain and loss; Sometimes there is a crown of thorns, sometimes the heavy cross. The dreary road to Calvary, the bitter goad and sting, But whats inside those gates of pearl will be worth everything. CHORUS When were inside the gates of pearl, Well learn a lot of things, Well have a harp thats made of gold, Perhaps a thousand strings;

The shadows now begin to fall, the time is drawing nigh, When Christ our Lord shall come again like lightning from the sky. And while we wait and suffer here, praise God, well shout and sing. For one glimpse through those gates of pearl will be worth everything. The precious blood of Gods own Son has saved and sanctified. A wondrous people for His name and they are called the bride. Though here neglected and despised, one day the Lord will bring His chosen ones within the gates, and thats worth everything.
154 JUST AS I AM (Eb)
Well, Im tired and so weary, but I must go along; Till the Lord comes and calls me away, oh, yes; Well the morning is bright, and the Lamb is the Light; And the night, night is as fair as the day, oh, yes. CHORUS There will be peace in the valley for me some day; There will be peace in the valley for me, oh, Lord, I pray; Therell be no sadness, no sorrow, no trouble Ill see; There will be peace in the valley for me. There the flowrs will be blooming, and the grass will be green; And the skies will be clear and serene, oh, yes; Well the sun ever beams, in this valley of dreams; And no clouds there will ever be seen, oh, yes. Well, the bear will be gentle, and the wolf will be tame; And the lion shall lay down by the lamb, oh, yes; Well the beast from the wild, shall be led by a litle child; And Ill be changed, changed from this creature that I am, oh, yes.

Just as I am, without one plea, But that Thy blood was shed for me, And that Thou biddst me come to Thee, O Lamb of God, I come! I come! Just as I am, and waiting not To rid my soul of one dark blot, To Thee, whose blood can cleanse each spot, O Lamb of God, I come! I come! Just as I am, Thou wilt received, Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve; Because Thy promise I believe, O Lamb of God, I come! I come! Just as I am, Thy love unknown Hath broken every barrier down; Now to be Thine, yea, Thine alone, O Lamb of God, I come! I come!

O day of gladness, O day unending; Beyond the sunset, eternal joy. Beyond the sunset, a hand will guide me To God, the Father, whom I adore; His glorious presence, His words of welcome, Will be my portion on that fair shore. Beyond the sunset, O glad reunion, With our dear loved ones whove gone before. In that fair homeland well know no parting, Beyond the sunset forevermore.
159 A CHILD OF THE KING (F)
Upon lifes boundless ocean where mighty billows roll, Ive fixed my hope in Jesus, blest anchor of my soul; When trials fierce assail me as storms are gathring oer, I rest upon His mercy and trust Him more. CHORUS Ive anchored in Jesus, the storms of life Ill brave. Ive anchored in Jesus, I fear no wind or wave; Ive anchored in Jesus, for He hath powr to save, Ive anchored in the Rock of Ages. He keeps my soul from evil and gives me blessed peace; His voice has stilled the waters and bid their tumult cease. My pilot and delivrer to Him I all confide, For always when I need Him, Hes at my side. He is my Friend and Savior, in Him my anchors cast, He drives away my sorrows and shields me from the blast; By faith Im looking upward beyond lifes troubled sea, There I behold a haven prepared for me.

CHORUS Im a child of the King! A child of the King! With Jesus my Savior, Im a child of the King! My Fathers own Son, the Savior of men, Once wandered oer earth as the poorest of them; But now He is reigning forever on high, And will give me a home in heavn by and by. I once was an outcast, stranger on earth, A sinner by choice, an alien by birth! But Ive been adopted, my names written down, An heir to a mansion, a robe, and a crown!

Look up! Your redemption is near. The fig tree is growing; Jerusalems restoring Her national life, long dethroned; Today she is calling, her latter rains falling. Return, O dispersed, to your own. Heavens powers are shaking, and many are mistaking Gods meaning to be of the sky; Gods Church is the power thats shaking this hour; The day of redemption is nigh. False prophets are lying. Gods Truth theyre denying, That Jesus the Christ is our God; Though this generation spurns Gods revelation, Well walk where the apostles have trod.
162 ONLY TRUST HIM (Ab)
Time is filled with swift transition. Naught of earth unmoved can stand, Build your hopes on things eternal. Hold to Gods unchanging hand! CHORUS Hold to Gods unchanging hand! Hold to Gods unchanging hand! Build your hopes on things eternal, Hold to Gods unchanging hand! Trust in Him who will not leave you, Whatsoever years may bring, If by earthly friends forsaken, Still more closely to Him cling! Covet not this worlds vain riches, That so rapidly decay, Seek to gain the heavenly treasures. They will never pass away!

For Jesus shed His precious blood Rich blessings to bestow; Plunge now into the crimson flood That washes white as snow. Yes, Jesus is the Truth, the Way, That leads you into rest; Believe in Him without delay, And you are fully blest. Come, then, and join this holy band, And on to glory go, To dwell in that celestial land, Where joys immortal flow.
Nations are breaking, Israels awaking, The signs that the prophets foretold; The Gentile days numbered, with horrors encumbered; Eternity soon will unfold. CHORUS The day of redemption is near, Mens hearts are failing for fear; Be filled with the Spirit, your lamps trimmed and clear,

One day when heaven was filled with His praises, One day when sin was as black as could be, Jesus came forth to be born of a virgin Dwelt amongst men, my example is He! CHORUS Living, He loved me; dying, He saved me; Buried, He carried my sins far away; Rising, He justified freely forever: One day Hes coming oh, glorious day! One day they led Him up Calvarys mountain, One day they nailed Him to die on the tree; Suffering anguish, despised and rejected: Bearing our sins, my Redeemer is He! One day they left Him alone in the garden, One day He rested, from suffering free; Angels came down oer His tomb to keep vigil; Hope of the hopeless, my Saviour is He! One day the grave could conceal Him no longer, One day the stone rolled away from the door; Then He arose, over death He had conquered; Now is ascended, my Lord evermore! One day the trumpet will sound for His coming, One day the skies with His glories will shine; Wonderful day, my beloved ones bringing; Glorious Saviour, this Jesus is mine!

Theres a land beyond the river, That we call the sweet forever, And we only reach that shore by faiths decree; One by one well gain the portals, there to dwell with the immortals, When thy ring the golden bells for you and me. CHORUS Dont you hear the bells now ringing? Dont you hear the angels singing? Tis the glory hallelujah Jubilee. In that far-off sweet forever, Just beyond the shining river, When they ring the golden bells for you and me. We shall know no sin or sorrow, In the haven of tomorrow. When our barque shall sail beyond the silver sea; We shall only know the blessing Of our Fathers sweet caressing, When they ring the golden bells for you and me. When our days shall know their number, When in death we sweetly slumber, When the King commands the spirit to be free; Nevermore with anguish laden. We shall reach that lovely aiden, When they ring the golden bells for you and me.
I looked over Jordan and what did I see Coming for to carry me home; A band of angels coming after me, Coming for to carry me home.

While we walk the pilgrim pathway, Clouds will overspread the sky; But when travling days are over, Not a shadow, not a sigh. Let us then be true and faithful, Trusting, serving, every day; Just one glimpse of him in glory Will the toils of life repay. Onward to the prize before us! Soon his beauty well behold; Soon the pearly gates will open, We shall tread the streets of gold.
167 THE OLD RUGGED CROSS (Bb)
Oh, that old rugged cross, so despised by the world, Has a wondrous attraction for me; For the dear Lamb of God left His glory above, To bear it to dark Calvary. In the old rugged cross, stained with blood so divine, A wondrous beauty I see. For twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died, To pardon and sanctify me. To the old rugged cross I will ever be true, Its shame and reproach gladly bear; Then Hell call me some day to my home far away, Where His glory forever Ill share.

I can hear my Saviour calling, I can hear my Saviour calling, I can hear my Saviour calling, Take thy cross, and follow, follow Me.

Ill go with Him through the garden, Ill go with Him through the garden, Ill go with Him through the garden, Ill go with Him, with Him all the way. Ill go with Him through the judgment, Ill go with Him through the judgment, Ill go with Him through the judgment, Ill go with Him, with Him all the way. He will give me grace and glory, He will give me grace and glory, He will give me grace and glory, And go with me, with me all the way.
On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross, The emblem of suffring and shame, And I love that old cross where the Dearest and Best, For a world of lost sinners was slain. CHORUS So Ill cherish the old rugged cross, Till my trophies at last I lay down; I will cling to the old rugged cross, And exchange it some day for a crown.

CHORUS Wonderful, wonderful, Jesus is to me, Counselor, Prince of Peace, Mighty God is He, Saving me, keeping me from all sin and shame, Wonderful is my Redeemer, praise His name! Once a slave, now Im free, free from condemnation, Jesus gives liberty and a full salvation; Now the sins of the past have been all forgiven, And my name is inscribed on the book of heaven. Living here with my Lord in a holy union, Day by day, all the way holding sweet communion; O what change grace hath wrought in my lowly station! Since my soul has received full and free salvation.

Neighbors are kind, I love them every one, We get along in sweet accord; But when my soul needs manna from above, Where could I go but to the Lord?

171 WONDERFUL PEACE (Ab)
Far away in the depth of my spirit tonight Rolls a melody sweeter than psalm; In celestial-like strains it unceasingly falls Oer my soul like an infinite calm. CHORUS Peace! Peace! Wonderful peace, Coming down from the Father above; Sweep over my spirit forever, I pray, In fathomless billows of love. What a treasure I have in this wonderful peace, Buried deep in the heart of my soul; So secure that no power can mine it away, While the years of eternity roll. I am resting tonight in this wonderful peace, Resting sweetly in Jesus control; For Im kept from all danger by night and by day, And His glory is flooding my soul. And methinks when I rise to that City of peace, Where the Author of peace I shall see. That one strain of the song which the ransomed will sing, In that heavenly kingdom shall be.
Living below in this old sinful world, Hardly a comfort can afford; Striving alone to face temptations sore, Where could I go but to the Lord? CHORUS Where could I go, O where could I go? Seeking a refuge for my soul? Needing a friend to help me in the end, Where could I go but to the Lord?

When we gather round the Throne And the gates are closed within, Ill be shouting Glory, Glory When the Saints go marching in. Im waiting for the chariot To swing low and Ill step in, On the clouds Ill ride to Heaven When the Saints go marching in.

CHORUS Then I bowed on my knees and cried, Holy, Holy, Holy, I clapped my hands and sang, Glory, Glory to the Son of God. I thought when I entered that city, My friends knew me well.

There are many things Id like to be As my journey I pursue, I have longed to be a leader Like a mortal man would do; I would like to be a millionaire, With a million to bestow, But Id rather be an old-time Christian Than anything I know. All the world is bright since I got right. Now I sing and pray and shout, All my burdens have been lifted Since the Saviour brought me out; I will tell the world both far and near As I travel here below.

This is my story, this is my song, Praising my Savior all the day long. Perfect submission, perfect delight, Visions of rapture now burst on my sight; Angels descending, bring from above Echoes of mercy, whispers of love. Perfect submission, all is at rest, I in my Savior am happy and blest; Watching and waiting, looking above, Filled with His goodness, lost in His love.

As of old, when the hosts of Israel Were compelled in the wilderness to dwell, Trusting they in their God to lead the way To the light of perfect day. CHORUS So the sign of the fire by night, And the sign of the cloud by day, Hovering oer, just before, As they journey on their way, Shall a guide and a leader be, Till the wilderness be past. For the Lord, our God, in His own good time Shall lead to the light at last. To and fro, as a ship without a sail, Not a compass to guide them through the vale, But the sign of their God was ever near, Thus their fainting hearts to cheer. All the days of their wandrings they were fed. To the land of the promise they were led; By the hand of the Lord in guidance sure, They were brought to Canaans shore.
Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine! Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine! Heir of salvation, purchased of God. Born of His Spirit, washed in His Blood. CHORUS This is my story, this is my song, Praising my Savior all the day long;

Not for ease or worldly pleasure, Nor for fame my prayer shall be; Gladly will I toil and suffer, Only let me walk with Thee, Close to Thee, close to Thee, Close to Thee, close to Thee; Gladly will I toil and suffer, Only let me walk with Thee. Lead me through the vale of shadows, Bear me oer lifes fitful sea; Then the gate of life eternal May I enter, Lord, with Thee.

God is the same and His Word is dependable, Hell make a way through the waters for you; Lifes situations by Him are amendable. Mountains and hills He will part for you too.

How to reach the masses, men of every birth? For an answer Jesus gave a key, And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, Will draw all men unto me. CHORUS Lift Him up, lift Him up, Still He speaks from eternity, And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, Will draw all men unto me. O the world is hungry for the living bread, Lift the Saviour up for them to see; Trust Him, and do not doubt the words that He said, Ill draw all men unto me. Dont exalt the preacher, dont exalt the pew, Preach the Gospel simple, full and free; Prove Him and you will find that promise is true, Ill draw all men unto me. Lift Him up by living as a Christian ought, Let the world in you the Saviour see, Then men will gladly follow Him who once taught, Ill draw all men unto me.

In that beautiful home where well nevermore roam, We shall be in the sweet by and by; Happy praise to the King, through eternity sing, Tis a land where we never shall die.

A sweet perfume upon the breeze Is borne from ever vernal trees, And flowrs, that never fading grow, Where streams of life forever flow.

That God should love a sinner such as I, How wonderful is love like this! That Christ should join so freely in the scheme, Although it meant His death on Calvary, Did ever human tongue find nobler theme Than Love divine that ransomed me? That for a willful outcast such as I, The Father planned, the Saviour bled and died; Redemption for a worthless slave to buy, Who long had law and grace defied. And now He takes me to His heart, a son, He asks me not to fill a servants place; The far-off country wandrings all are done, Wide open are His arms of grace.

I will meet you in the morning, by the bright river side, When all sorrow has drifted away; Ill be standing at the portals, when the gates open wide, At the close of lifes long, dreary day. CHORUS Ill meet you in the morning with a How do you do, And well sit down by the river and with rapture auld acquaintance renew, Youll know me in the morning, by the smiles that I wear, When I meet you in the morning, in the city that is built foursquare. I will meet you in the morning, in the sweet by and by, And exchange the old cross for a crown; There will be no disappointments and nobody shall die, In that land, eer the sun goeth down. I will meet you in the morning, at the end of the way, On the streets of that city of gold; Where we all can be together and be happy for aye, While the years and the ages shall roll.
190 WATCHING YOU (F)
Down from His glory, ever living story, My God and Saviour came, and Jesus was His Name. Born in a manger, to His own a stranger, A Man of sorrows, tears and agony. CHORUS Oh how I love Him! How I adore Him! My breath, my sunshine, my all in all! The great Creator became my Saviour, And all Gods fullness dwelleth in Him. What condescension, bringing us redemption; That in the dead of night, not one faint hope in sight; God, gracious, tender, laid aside His splender, Stooping to woo, to win, to save my soul.
All along on the road to the souls true abode, Theres an Eye watching you; Every step that you take, this great Eye is awake, Theres an Eye watching you. CHORUS Watching you, watching you,

The signs around, in earth and air, Or painted on the starlit sky, Gods faithful witnesses declare That the coming of the Saviour draweth nigh. The dead in Christ who neath us lie, In countless numbers, all shall rise When through the portals of the sky He shall come to prepare our Paradise.

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.

On Jordans stormy banks I stand, And cast a wishful eye, Toward Canaans fair and happy land, Where my possessions lie. CHORUS I am bound for the promised land, I am bound for the promised land; O who will come and go with me? I am bound for the promised land. Oer all those wide extended plains Shines one eternal day; There God the Son forever reigns, And scatters night away.

When shall I see my Fathers face, And in His bosom rest?

I must tell Jesus all of my troubles; He is a kind, compassionate Friend; If I but ask Him, He will deliver, Make of my troubles quickly and end. Tempted and tried I need a great Saviour, One who can help my burdens to bear; I must tell Jesus, I must tell Jesus; He all my cares and sorrows will share.

Nothing between like worldly pleasure; Habits of life, though harmless they seem, Must not my heart from Him ever sever; He is my all, theres nothing between. Nothing between, like pride or station; Self or friends shall not intervene; Though it may cost me much tribulation, I am resolved, theres nothing between. Nothing between, een many hard trials. Though the whole world against me convene; Watching with prayer and much self-denial, Ill triumph at last, with nothing between.

Near the cross, a trembling soul, Love and mercy found me; There the Bright and Morning Star Sheds its beams around me. Near the cross! O lamb of God, Bring its scenes before me; Help me walk from day to day, With its shadows oer me. Near the cross Ill watch and wait, Hoping, trusting, ever. Till I reach the golden strand, Just beyond the river.
There is coming a day when no heartaches shall come, No more clouds in the sky, no more tears to dim the eye; All is peace forevermore on

On Calvarys hill of sorrow Where sins demands were paid, And rays of hope for tomorrow Across our path were laid. CHORUS I see a crimson stream of blood. It flows from Calvary, Its waves which reach the throne of God, Are sweeping over me. Today no condemnation Abides to turn away My soul from His salvation, Hes in my heart to stay. When gloom and sadness whisper Youve sinned, no use to pray; I look away to Jesus And He tells me to say:
Ive wandered far away from God, Now Im coming home; The paths of sin too long Ive trod, Lord, Im coming home. CHORUS Coming home, coming home, Nevermore to roam; Open wide Thine arms of love, Lord, Im coming home.

As I travel on lifes pathway, Know not what the years may hold; As I
I look and see earths sorrowing picture, The hoarding mobs for selfish gain; Their toil of hand for ease and comfort, Can they not see, their doom is sealed, its all in vain. CHORUS The end is here, its now at hand, The Bride is gathering; the world is failing; Israels awakning; nations are breaking Our prophet taught us, we believe the end is here.

In every church age a star did shine, To help Gods people a Truth to find; In this last church age a star shines bright, So friend receive It, walk in the Light. Do not be fearful or filled with dread, Your prophet sleepeth, he is not dead; The Bride is waiting now for that Voice, And in this hope we can now rejoice.
