Happy Soul, That, Free from Harms

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 27 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Happy soul, that, free from harms, Rests within his Shepherd’s arms! Who his quiet shall molest? Who shall violate his rest? Jesus doth his spirit bear; Jesus takes his every care; He who found the wandering sheep, Jesus, still delights to keep. 2. O that I might so believe, Steadfastly to Jesus cleave; On His only love rely, Smile at the destroyer nigh; Free from sin and servile fear, Have my Jesus ever near; All His care rejoice to prove, All His paradise of love! 3. Jesus, seek Thy wandering sheep; Bring me back, and lead, and keep; Take on Thee my every care; Bear me, on Thy bosom bear; Let me know my Shepherd’s voice; More and more in Thee rejoice; More and more of Thee receive; Ever in Thy spirit live. 4. Live, till all Thy life I know, Perfect, through my Lord, below; Gladly then from earth remove, Gathered to the fold above; O that I at last may stand, With the sheep at Thy right hand; Take the crown so freely given, Enter in by Thee to Heaven!

Safely, safely gathered in

Author: Mrs. H. O. Dobree, 1831-1894 Appears in 33 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Safely, safely gathered in, No more sorrow, no more sin, No more childish griefs or fears, No more sadness, no more tears; For the life, so young and fair, Now hath passed from earthly care: God Himself the soul will keep, Giving His beloved sleep. 2 Safely, safely gathered in, Free from sorrow, free from sin, Passed beyond all grief and pain, Death, for thee, is truest gain: For our loss we must not weep, Nor our loved one long to keep From the home of rest and peace, Where all sin and sorrow cease. 3 Safely, safely gathered in, No more sorrow, no more sin; God has saved from weary strife, In its dawn, this young fresh life, Which awaits us now above, Resting in the Saviour's love. Jesus, grant that we may meet There, adoring at Thy feet.

"Not Your Own!" But His Ye Are

Author: F. R. Havergal Appears in 10 hymnals Lyrics: 1 “Not your own!” but His ye are, Who hath paid a price untold For your life, exceeding far All earth’s stores of gems and gold; With the precious blood of Christ, Ransom treasure all unpriced, Full redemption is procured, Full salvation is assured. 2 “Not your own!” but His by right, His peculiar treasure now; Fair and precious in His sight— Purchased jewels for His brow. He will keep what thus He sought, Safely guard the dearly bought Cherish that which He did choose, Always love and never lose. 3 “Not your own!” to Him ye owe All your life and all your love; Live, that ye His praise may show, Who is yet all praise above. Every day and every hour, Every gift and every power Consecrate to Him alone, Who hath claimed you for His own. 4 3 Teach us, Master, how to give All we have and are to Thee; Grant us, Saviour, while we live, Wholly, only Thine to be. Henceforth be our calling high— Thee to serve and glorify! Ours no longer, but Thine own, Thine for ever, Thine alone! Used With Tune: MAIDSTONE
