Nothing Between

Author: C.A. Tindley Appears in 121 hymnals First Line: Nothing between my soul and the Saviour Refrain First Line: Nothing between my soul and the Saviour Lyrics: 1. Nothing between my soul and the Saviour, Naught of this world's delusive dream; I have renounced all sinful pleasure, Jesus is mine; there's nothing between. Chorus: Nothing between my soul and the Saviour, So that His blessed face may be seen; Nothing preventing the least of His favor, Keep the way clear! let nothing between. 2. Nothing between, like worldly pleasure, Habits of life, though harmless they seem, Must not my heart from Him ever sever, He is my all, there's nothing between. (Chorus) 3. Nothing between, like pride or station; Self or friends shall not intervene, Though it may cost me much tribulation, I am resolved; there's nothing between. (Chorus) 4. Nothing between, e'en many hard trials, Though the whole world against me convene; Watching with pray'r and much self-denial, I'll triumph at last, with nothing between. (Chorus) Used With Tune: [Nothing between my soul and the Savior]

He, all my prison bars did break, Away in the Kingdom. My yoke of bondage He did take, Away in the Kingdom. 3. I all my sins on Him did lay, Away in the Kingdom. And this to me my Lord did say, Away in the Kingdom: "If you my mandates will obey, Away in the Kingdom, I'll give you a home with me to stay," Away in the Kingdom. 4. Lord, I believe a rest remains, Away in the Kingdom. A rest where pure enjoyment reigns, Away in the Kingdom. A rest where all our soul's desire, Away in the Kingdom, Where fear and sin and grief expire, Away in the Kingdom.

Some Day

Beams of heaven, as I go, Thro' this wilderness below, Guide my feet in peaceful ways, Turn my midnights into days; When in the darkness I would grope, Faith always sees a star of hope, And soon from all life's grief and danger, I shall be free someday. Chorus: I do not know how long 'twill be, nor what the future holds for me, but this I know, if Jesus leads me, I shall get home some day. 2. Oftentimes my sky is clear, Joy abounds without a tear, Though a day so bright begun, Clouds may hide tomorrow's sun. There'll be a day that's always bright, A day that never yields to night, And in its light the streets of glory I shall behold someday. 3. Harder yet may be the fight, Right may often yield to might, Wickedness awhile may reign, Satan's cause may seem to gain, There is a God that rules above, With hand of pow'r and heart of love; If I am right, He'll fight my battle, I shall have peace some day. 4. Burdens now may crush me down, Disappointments all around, Troubles speak in mournful sigh, Sorrow through a tear-stain'd eye. There is a world where pleasure reigns, No mourning soul shall roam its plains, And to that land of peace and glory I want to go some day. Used With Tune: [Beams of heaven, as I go]
