Beneath the Cross of Jesus

Author: Elizabeth C. Clephane Hymnal: RHC #560 (1970) Meter: 7.6.8.6.8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Beneath the cross of Jesus I fain would take my stand, The shadow of a mighty rock Within a weary land; A home within the wilderness, A rest upon the way, From the burning of the noontide heat, And the burden of the day. 2 Upon that cross of Jesus Mine eyes at times can see The very dying form of One Who suffered there for me; And from my smitten heart with tears These wonders I confess, - The wonders of His glorious love, And my own worthlessness. 3 I take, O cross, thy shadow For my abiding place; I ask no other sunshine than The sunshine of His face; Content to let the world go by, To know no gain nor loss, My sinful self my only shame, My glory all the cross.

Come with Contrite Heart

Author: John Morison, 1750-98 Hymnal: RHC #561 (1970) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Come, let us to the Lord our God Lyrics: 1 Come, let us to the Lord our God With contrite hearts return; Our God is gracious, nor will leave The desolate to mourn. 2 His voice commands the tempest forth, And stills the stormy wave; And though his arm be strong to smite, ’Tis also strong to save. 3 Long hath the night of sorrow reigned; The dawn shall bring us light; God shall appear, and we shall rise With gladness in his sight. 4 Our hearts, if God we seek to know, Shall know Him, and rejoice; His coming like the morn shall be, Like morning songs his voice. 5 As dew upon the tender herb, Diffusing fragrance round; As showers that usher in the spring, And cheer the thirsty ground: 6 So shall His presence bless our souls, And shed a joyful light; That hallowed morn shall chase away The sorrows of the night.

Amazing Grace

How sweet the sound Lyrics: 1 Amazing grace! how sweet the sound That sav'd a wretch like me; I once was lost, but now am found; Was blind, but now I see. 2 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, And grace my fears relieved; How precious did that grace appear The hour I first believed! 3 Through many dangers, toils and snares, I have already come; 'Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far, And grace will lead me home. 4 The Lord has promised good to me, His word my hope secures; He will my shield and portion be As long as life endures. 5 Yes, when this heart and flesh shall fail, And mortal life shall cease, I shall possess within the veil, A life of joy and peace. 6 When we've been there a thousand years, Bright shining as the sun, We've no less days to sing God's praise Than when we first begun.

Calling for me! For me! Gently and long did He plead with my soul, Calling for me, for me! 4 Jesus, my Saviour, shall come from on high,— Sweet is the promise as weary years fly; Oh, I shall see Him descending the sky, Coming for me, for me!

Have You Counted the Cost?

Author: A. J. H. Hymnal: RHC #565 (1970) First Line: There's a line that is drawn by rejecting our Lord Refrain First Line: Have you counted the cost Lyrics: 1 There's a line that is drawn by rejecting our Lord, Where the call of His Spirit is lost, And you hurry along with the pleasure-mad throng - Have you counted, have you counted the cost? Chorus: Have you counted the cost, if your soul should be lost Tho' you gain the whole world for your own? Even now it may be that the line you have crossed, Have you counted, have you counted the cost? 2 You may barter your hope of eternity's morn, For a moment of joy at the most, For the glitter of sin and the things it will win - Have you counted, have you counted the cost? [Chorus] 3 While the door of His mercy is open to you, Ere the depth of His love you exhaust, Won't you come and be healed, won't you whisper, I yield - I have counted, I have counted the cost.

Is Not This the Land of Beulah?

Author: Anonymous Hymnal: RHC #566 (1970) First Line: I am dwelling on the mountain Refrain First Line: Is not this the land of Beulah Lyrics: 1 I am dwelling on a mountain, Where the golden sunlight gleams O’er a land whose wondrous beauty Far exceeds my fondest dreams; Where the air is pure, ethereal, Laden with the breath of flowers, That are blooming by the fountain, ’Neath the amaranthine bowers. Chorus: Is not this the land of Beulah? Blessed, blessed land of light; Where the flowers bloom forever, And the sun is always bright? 2 I can see far down the mountain, Where I wandered weary years, Often hindered in my journey, By the ghosts of doubt and fears; Broken vows and disappointments Thickly scattered all the way; But the spirit led unerring to the land I hold today. [Chorus] 3 I am drinking at the fountain, Where I ever would abide, For I’ve tasted life’s pure river, And my soul is satisfied; There’s no thirst for earthly pleasures, Nor adorning rich and gay, For I’ve found a richer treasure, One that fadeth not away. [Chorus] 4 Tell me not of heavy crosses, Nor the burdens hard to bear, For I've found this great salvation Makes each burden light appear; And I love to follow Jesus, Gladly counting all but dross, Worldly honors all forsaking For the glory of the cross. [Chorus] 5 Oh! the cross has wondrous glory! Oft I’ve proved this to be true, When I’m in the way so narrow, I can see a pathway through; And how sweetly Jesus whispers, “Take the cross, thou need’st not fear, For I've trod the way before thee, And the glory lingers near.” [Chorus] Topics: Comfort; Heaven and Eternity Languages: English Tune Title: [I am dwelling on the mountain]
