He's Coming Back!

Author: Charles P. Jones Hymnal: His Fullness Songs #478 (1977) Tune Title: A CHRISTMAS MELODY Scripture: James 5:8 First Line: Hear, O hear the joyful bells a-ringing! Refrain First Line: Hear, O hear! He's coming back again! Lyrics: 1 Hear, O hear the joyful bells a-ringing! They tell us that this celebrates the day when Christ was born; When He came His great salvation bringing, Yet but a babe in Bethlehem that happy natal morn. Refrain: Hear, O hear! He's coming back again! Ring it out o'er valley hill and plain! Spread the news: He's coming back again! O hallelujah! Praise His name! He' coming back again! 2 Peal, ye bells of glorious revelations, Sound out the tidings full and clear o'er wooded land and main; Rouse, O rouse the slumb'ring, sinful nations, Awake them to the happy hope that Christ shall come again. [Refrain] 3 Hear, O hear the Christmas bells a-ringing; O shall the echo call the mem'ry back to Calvary? Shall they find us songs of glory singing, Or rolling in the muddy tide of self-debauchery? [Refrain] 4 Hear, O hear the echo of the morning: "Behold He comes,"the angels shout; ye faithful join the cry; Christ the Lord, God's glory Him adorning, Is coming to redeem His saints, behold Him, ev'ry eye.

Sun of my soul, thou Saviour dear

Author: John Keble, 1792-1866 Hymnal: Common Praise #21a (2000) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Tune Title: ABENDS Scripture: James 5:19-20 Lyrics: 1 Sun of my soul, thou Saviour dear, it is not night if thou be near: O may no earth-born cloud arise to hide thee from thy servant's eyes. 2 When the soft dews of kindly sleep my weary eyelids gently steep, be my last thought, how sweet to rest for ever on my Saviour's breast. 3 Abide with me from morn till eve, for without thee I cannot live; abide with me when night is nigh, for without thee I dare not die. 4 If some poor wandering child of thine have spurned to-day the voice divine, now, Lord, the gracious work begin; let him no more lie down in sin. 5 Watch by the sick; enrich the poor with blessings from thy boundless store; be every mourner's sleep to-night, like infant's slumbers, pure and light. 6 Come near and bless us when we wake, ere through the world our way we take; till in the ocean of thy love we lose ourselves in heaven above.

Author: Joseph M. Scriven, 1819-1866 Hymnal: One Lord, One Faith, One Baptism #541 (2018) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Tune Title: ANNIE LOWERY Scripture: James 5:13 Lyrics: 1 What a Friend we have in Jesus, All our sins and griefs to bear! What a privilege to carry Ev'rything to God in prayer! Oh, what peace we often forfeit, Oh, what needless pain we bear, All because we do not carry Ev'rything to God in prayer! 2 Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere? We should never be discouraged– Take it to the Lord in prayer! Can we find a friend so faithful, Who will all our sorrows share? Jesus knows our ev'ry weakness– Take it to the Lord in prayer! 3 Are we weak and heavy-laden, Cumbered with a load of care? Precious Savior, still our refuge– Take it to the Lord in prayer! Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer! In His arms He'll take and shield thee– Thou wilt find a solace there.
