Keep Step

Author: Fanny J. Crosby Appears in 6 hymnals First Line: In the struggle of life there's a conquest to win Refrain First Line: Keep step! step! ever Lyrics: 1 In the struggle of life there's a conquest to win; Would you break from the fetters that bind you to sin? Would you vanquish the foe to the cause of the Right? You must gird on your armor bright. Persevere in all you do; Looking up, your way pursue; Toiling on till life is over, With the faithful gone before. Refrain: Keep step! step! ever, Keep step, keep step forever, And the blessing of God will be yours to the end. He will leave his children never. 2 Would you cast in your lot with the people of God, Would you follow the path which the righteous have trod? You must ever be fervent and watch unto pray'r, And the cross daily learn to bear. Live for Christ, yourselves deny, Seek your treasures in the sky; Marching on till life is over, With the faithful gone before. [Refrain] 3 Would you strive for the prize at the end of the race? You must go to the Lord for his wisdom and grace; Unto him that o'ercometh, the promise is giv'n Of a home and a crown in heav'n Would you dwell forever there? On the Saviour cast your care; Pressing on till life is over, With the faithful gone before. [Refrain] Topics: Living His Life Loyalty to Christ Used With Tune: [In the struggle of life there's a conquest to win]

Just a Ray of Sunshine

Author: Ada Blenkhorn Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Just a ray of sunshine Breaking thro' the gloom, Makes the earth rejoice again, And the flow'rs to bloom: Makes the earth rejoice again And makes the flow'rs to bloom. 2 Just a little kindness, Bright and sunny smile, Makes the sad heart sing again, All its cares beguile, Makes the sad heart sing again And all its cares beguile. 3 Words and smiles so kindly Like the sunshine fall, Let your presence ever be Blessings unto all; Let your presence ever be Rich blessings unto all.

Perfect

Appears in 133 hymnals First Line: Let all the heathen writers join Lyrics: 1 Let all the heathen writers join To form one perfect book; Great God, if once compared with thine, How mean their writings look! How mean their writings look! 2 Not the most perfect rules they gave Could show one sin forgiv'n, Nor lead one step beyond the grave; But thine conducts to heaven. But thine conducts to heaven. 3 Yet men would fain be just with God By works their hands have wrought; But thy commands, exceeding broad, Extend to every thought. Extend to every thought. 4 Our faith, and love, and every grace, Fall far below thy word; But perfect truth and righteousness Dwell only in the Lord. Dwell only in the Lord.

Choose Some Heralds Here

Appears in 10 hymnals First Line: Our Saviour's voice is soft and sweet Lyrics: 1 Our Saviour's voice is soft and sweet, When, bending from above, He bids us gather round His feet, And calls us by His love. 2 He leads to heav'n where angels dwell, He saves from endless woe; Our lips, our lives, can never tell How much to Christ we owe. 3 But while our youthful hearts rejoice, That thus He bids us come, Jesus, we cry with pleading voice, Bring heathen wand'rers home. 4 They never heard the Saviour's name, They have not learnt His way, They do not know His grace who came To take their sins away. 5 Dear Saviour, let the joyful sound, In distant lands be heard; And oh, wherever sin is found, Send forth Thy pard'ning word. 6 And if our lips may breathe the pray'r, Tho' raised in trembling fear, Oh, let Thy pow'r our hearts prepare, And choose some heralds here.

We bless Thee for Thy peace, O God, Deep as th' unfathomed sea, Which falls like sunshine on the road Of those who trust in Thee. 2. We ask not, Father, for repose Which comes from outward rest, If we may have thro' all life's woes Thy peace within our breast, 3. That peace which suffers and is strong Trusts where it cannot see, Deems not the trial way too long, But leaves the end with Thee. 4. That peace which flows serene and deep A river in the soul Whose banks a living verdure keep, God's sunshine o'er the whole. 5. O Father, give our hearts this peace, Whate'er the outward be, Till all life's discipline shall cease, And we go home to Thee.

As Thou Wilt

Author: B. Schmolke Appears in 617 hymnals First Line: My Jesus, as thou wilt Lyrics: 1 My Jesus, as thou wilt: O may thy will be mine! Into thy hand of love I would, my all resign. Thro' sorrow or thro' joy, Conduct me as thine own, And help me still to say, "My Lord, thy will be done." 2 My Jesus, as thou wilt: Tho' seen thro' many a tear, Let not my star of hope Grow dim or disappear. Since thou on earth hast wept And sorrowed oft alone, If I must weep with thee, "My Lord, thy will be done." 3 My Jesus, as thou wilt: All shall be well for me; Each changing future scene I gladly trust with thee. Straight to my home above, I travel calmly on, And sing in life or death, "My Lord, thy will be done." Topics: Living His Life Consecration Used With Tune: JEWETT

The Lord hath made known his salvation: his righteousness hath he openly showed in the sight of the heathen. He hath remembered his mercy and his truth toward the house of Israel. All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God. Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all the earth, make a loud noise and rejoice and sing praise.

Let the floods clap their hands; let the hills be joyful together before the Lord; for he cometh to judge the earth: with righteousness shall he judge the world, and the people with equity.

Can I doubt His tender mercy, Who thro' life has been my guide? Heav'nly peace, divinest comfort, Here by faith in Him to dwell! For I know whate'er befall me, Jesus doeth all things well; For I know whate'er befall me, Jesus doeth all things well. 2 All the way my Saviour leads me; Cheers each winding path I tread; Gives me grace for every trial, Feeds me with the living bread; Tho' my weary steps may falter, And my soul athirst may be, Gushing from the Rock before me, Lo! a spring of joy I see; Gushing from the rock before me, Lo! a spring of joy I see. 3 All the way my Saviour leads me; Oh, the fullness of His love! Perfect rest to me is promised In my Father's house above; When I wake to life immortal, Wing my flight to realms of day, This my song thro' endless ages Jesus led me all the way; This my song thro' endless ages Jesus led me all the way.
