They Walked with God

Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854 Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Acts 11:1-18 First Line: They walked with God in peace and love Lyrics: 1 They walked with God in peace and love but failed with one another; while sternly for the faith they strove, they fell out with each other. But he in whom they put their trust, who knew their frames, that they were dust, with pity healed their weakness. 2 He found them in his house of prayer with one accord assembled, and so revealed his presence there; they wept for joy and trembled. One cup they drank, one bread they broke, on baptism shared, one language spoke, forgiving and forgiven. 3 Then forth they went, with tongues of flame in one blessed theme delighting; the love of Jesus, and his name, God's children all uniting. That love our theme and watchword still; the law of love may we fulfill - give love as love we're given.

Of him the sacred record saith

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Acts 11:22-26 Lyrics: Of him the sacred record saith, He was a good man, full of faith, Who by the Holy Spirit led, Rejoiced to see the Gospel spread:-- Spread by the Saints where'r they went From martyrdom to banishment; The cross through every region bore, And more oppress'd, prevail'd the more. From doom'd Jerusalem cast forth, Eastward and westward, south and north! On fertile field, and barren clod, They sow'd the seed, the Word of God. To heathen Antioch, when they came, And first received their Master's name, They gloried in it, and bequeath'd The inheritance to all that breathed:-- To all that breathed by second birth, Children of God, though sons of earth, For "Christians," Christians such shall be Till time becomes eternity. 142 Well then might Barnabas rejoice, And aid the work with heart and voice, For though by earth and hell assail'd, The truth grew mighty and prevail'd. Ye faithful souls, from age to age, Transmit your heavenly heritage, Christ's easy yoke with meekness wear, And bear His cross whose name ye bear:-- That all the living, in that day, When Heaven and Earth must pass away, Redeemed from sin, through grace restored, May be caught up to meet the Lord.
