praising my Saviour all the day long.

visions of rapture burst on my sight;
angels descending bring from above
echoes of mercy, whispers of love: [Refrain]

I in my Saviour am happy and blest —
watching and waiting, looking above,
filled with his goodness, lost in his love: [Refrain]

while millions join the theme I will sing, I will sing;
while millions join the theme I will sing.
4 And when from death I’m free, I’ll sing on, I’ll sing on,
and when from death I’m free, I’ll sing on;
and when from death I’m free, I’ll sing and joyful be,
and through eternity I’ll sing on, I’ll sing on,
and through eternity I’ll sing on.

What Wondrous Love Is This
From east to west, from shore to shore
Author: C. Sedulius Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 40 hymnals Topics: The Church Year Sixth Sunday in Lent; The Church Year Sixth Sunday in Lent: Palm Sunday Lyrics: 1 From east to west, from shore to shore,
Let every heart awake and sing
The Holy Child whom Mary bore,
The Christ, the everlasting King.
2 Behold! the world's Creator wears
The form and fashion of our frame;
Our very flesh our Maker shares,
To save a fallen world He came.
3 For this how wondrously He wrought!
A maiden, in her lowly place,
Became, in ways beyond all thought,
The chosen vessel of His grace.
4 She bowed her to the angel's word,
Declaring what the Father willed,
And suddenly the promised Lord
That pure and hallowed temple filled.
5 He shrank not from the oxen's stall,
He lay within the manger bed,
And He whose bounty feedeth all
At Mary's breast Himself was fed.
6 And while the angels in the sky
Sang praise above the silent field,
To shepherds poor the Lord most high,
The one great Shepherd, was revealed.
7 All glory for this blessed morn
To God the Father ever be;
All praise to Thee, O Virgin-born,
All praise, O Holy Ghost, to Thee. Used With Tune: [From east to west, from shore to shore]
From east to west, from shore to shore
The Old Rugged Cross
Author: George Bennard, 1873-1958 Meter: Irregular Appears in 345 hymnals Topics: Lent First Line: On a hill far away, stood an old rugged cross Refrain First Line: So I'll cherish the old rugged cross Lyrics: 1 On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross,
the emblem of suffering and shame;
and I love that old cross, where the dearest and best
for a world of lost sinners was slain.
Refrain:
So I'll cherish the old rugged cross,
till my trophies at last I lay down;
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
and exchange it some day for a crown.
2 O that old rugged cross, so despised by the world,
has a wondrous attraction for me;
for the dear Lamb of God left his glory above
to bear it to dark Calvary. [Refrain]
3 In the old rugged cross, stained with blood so divine,
a wondrous beauty I see;
for 'twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died
to pardon and sanctify me. [Refrain]
4 To the old rugged cross I will ever be true,
its shame and reproach gladly bear;
then he'll call me some day to my home far away,
where his glory forever I'll share. [Refrain]

The Lord's My Shepherd
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 570 hymnals Topics: Christian Year Lent First Line: The Lord's my Shepherd, I'll not want Lyrics: 1 The Lord's my Shepherd, I'll not want;
He makes me down to lie
In pastures green; He leadeth me
The quiet waters by.
2 My soul he doth restore again;
And me to walk doth make
Within the paths of righteousness,
E'en for his own name's sake.
3 Yea, though I walk in death's dark vale,
Yet will I fear none ill;
For thou art with me; and thy rod
And staff me comfort still.
4 My table thou hast furnished
In presence of my foes;
My head thou dost with oil anoint,
And my cup overflows.
5 Goodness and mercy all my life
Shall surely follow me;
And in God's house forevermore
My dwelling place shall be.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 23 Used With Tune: CRIMOND Text Sources: Para. in the Scottish Psalter, 1650

“Come unto me and rest;
Lay down, O weary one, lay down
your head upon my breast.”
2 I came to Jesus as I was,
so weary, worn, and sad,
And there I found a resting place,
where Jesus made me glad!
3 I heard the voice of Jesus say,
“Behold, I freely give
The living water; thirsty one,
draw near, and drink, and live.”
4 I came to Jesus, and I drank
of that life-giving stream;
My thirst was quenched, my soul revived,
and now I am redeemed.
5 I heard the voice of Jesus say,
“I am this lost world’s Light,
Look unto me; your morn shall rise,
and all your day be bright.”
6 I looked to Jesus, and I found
my guiding Star, my Sun;
And in that light of life I’ll go
till traveling days are done. Scripture: Matthew 11:28-30 Used With Tune: EVAN
