1-aCome to this shelter, safe retreat
1I can feel the hand of Satan, As the tempter press me sore
2I have heard about the great Redeemer
3I'm in the way, the bright and shining way
4Low in the grave He lay
5Once like a bird in prison I dwelt
6In Thy field I would wield sickles brave and true
7When Jesus came and found me, like mighty billows roll
8Have thy affections been nailed to the cross?
9We have left the land of Egypt
10There's a country far beyond the starry sky
11It won't be very long till this short life shall end
12O land of rest, for thee I sigh!
13It won't be long till Jesus comes
14I am going to a city Where the streets with gold are laid
15I will meet you in the morning, by the bright river side
16There's a happy land of promise over in the great beyond
17Years I spent in vanity and pride
18I have a feeling in my soul, Since the Savior made me whole
19My trials here on earth will cease
20We never know at the dawn of day
21'Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus, Just to take Him at His Word
22What can wash away my sin? Nothing but the blood of Jesus
23I can hear my Savior calling
24What a Friend we have in Jesus
25There's a land that is fairer than day
26Jesus is tenderly calling thee home
27Sing the wondrous love of Jesus, Sing His mercy and His grace
28I've heard of a land of joy and peace and wonderful light
29What a fellowship, what a joy divine
30I have left the land of bondage with its earthly treasures
31Precious mem'ries, unseen angels
32The love of God, God's wonderful love to me so wonderful
33As I journey along my pilgrimage here
34Just as I am, without one plea
35What have you done in the Master's dear name?
36Oh, do not let the word depart
37When the trumpet of the Lord shall sound
38Are you weary, are you heavy hearted?
39Once I wandered alone in blackness of night
40Come, ev'ry soul by sin oppressed
41There was a time on earth when in the book of heav'n
42Have you been to Jesus for the cleansing pow'r?
43What a wonderful, beautiful picture I have
44I'm not ashamed to own that Jesus came and died on calvary
45On Jordan's stormy banks I stand
46Once my soul was astray from the heavenly way
47As I journey thru the land singing as I go
48'Tis a sweet and glorious tho't that comes to me
49There's a great day coming, a great day coming
50Beautiful robes so white, Beautiful land of light
51Simply trusting ev'ry day, Trusting thru a stormy way
52Many years I've traveled on this weary road
53Safe in the arms of Jesus, Safe on His gentle breast
54Won't it be a happy, happy day
55Sowing in the morning, sowing seeds of kindness
56Here among the shadows (living) in a lonely land
57There is something in my soul which keeps the shadows all away
58Once I wandered in darkness unsaved
59When Jesus comes again to gather His own
60O blessed tho't sweet rest will come
61I once was lost in sin but Jesus took me in
62Once from my poor sin-sick soul Christ did ev'ry burden roll
63I am thinking of the rapture in our blessed home on high
64There are many storms that come along my pilgrim way
65I've a home prepared where the saints abide
66Somewhere the sun is shining, Somewhere the songbirds dwell
67What a happy time some glad tomorrow when we lay these heavy burdens down
68Makes me love ev'rybody, Makes me love ev'rybody
69O why will you wander so aimlessly on
70I am weak but Thou art strong
71When the hosts of Israel, led by God
72Softly and tenderly Jesus is calling
73As I go down life's pilgrim pathway
74We're oft made to wonder where loved ones have gone
75O there is a time when the message will come
76When you are lonely, clouds hide the blue
77I'm living with Jesus my Savior as I go on life's way
78My faith looks up to Thee, Thou Lamb of Calvary
79I would still be lost in sin with no peace and joy within
80Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
81Now there's a place in Christ our blessed Lord
82Storming, then sunshine, my lot it shall be
83Out on the perilous deep Where dangers silently creep
84Sometime when misgivings darken the day
85You may ask me where I'm headed, you may ask me where I'm bound
86Whenever a storm sweepeth o'er me
87He pardoned my transgressions, He sanctified my soul
88I've heard of a beautiful city above
89The cross that He gave may be heavy
90Christ, our Redeemer, died on the cross, Died for the sinner
91Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!
92No I am not weary, and I am not blue
93Missions of mercy, missions of love
94Some glad morning when this life is o'er
95I'd like to stay here longer than man's allotted days
96Search me, O Lord, and know my heart today
97I am so glad that our Father in heav'n Tells of His love
98Jesus loves me! this I know
99God calling yet! shall I not hear?
