Not much further to go

Author: K. Shaw Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: 2 Timothy 4:6 First Line: The day is far spent, the night is at hand Refrain First Line: Journeying homeward, oh, how sweet Lyrics: 1 The day is far spent, the night is at hand, The wilderness nearly passed through; The sorrows of life will soon have an end, Not very much further to go. We'll talk of the past, what the Lord hath done, How Jesus hath saved us from woe, And rejoice that we're near the borderland, Not very much further to go. Chorus: Journeying homeward, oh, how sweet, Friends and kindred there to meet; Journeying homeward, is it so? We have not very much further to go. 2 The year of release is just now at hand, God's promises comfort us so; With the glorified throng we soon will stand, Not very much further to go. The friends of our youth have passed away, But Jesus is One that we know Will never forsake us though aged and gray, Not very much further to go. [Chorus] 3 A beautiful crown is waiting you there, Oh, why are you doubting Him so? His promise is sure, His glory you'll share, Not very much further to go. Dread not the cold waters, for Christ will be there, His grace all-sufficient bestow; Be ready and waiting, that crown you shall wear, Not very much further to go. [Chorus] Used With Tune: [The day is far spent, the night is at hand]

God of Jeremiah, grieving with an aching heart

Author: Brian Arthur Wren, 1936- Meter: 13.13.7.7.13 Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: 2 Timothy 4:1-5 Lyrics: 1 God of Jeremiah, grieving with an aching heart for an empire, unbelieving as it falls apart, when your thunder goes unheard, we will tend the prophet's word, and in season, out of season, we will sing your song. 2 When our wound is left to fester, though the pain goes deep, when we've sown a hundred whirlwinds, but have yet to reap, when the platitudes of peace only make our fears increase, with a poem and a story we will sing your song. 3 When the palace looks at poverty with scornful eyes, when the scroll of truth is shredded by a leader's lies, when the glory of the cross is a propaganda gloss, in the square and in the senate we will sing your song. 4 We will break the jar of plenty by the gates of gold, we will buy a field of promise when the farm is sold, at the ending of the dream, in the death of self esteem, at the bank and in the market we will sing your song. 5 We will praise the grainy granite of the Law's demands, and the Life-creating, Lover-God with wounded hands; we will spin your story-line to an empire in decline and in exile or in honour we will sing your song.

I'm Nearing the City

Author: Frances E. W. Harper Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: 2 Timothy 4:6-8 First Line: I'm nearing the city, so fair and bright Lyrics: 1 I'm nearing the city, so fair and bright, The beautiful city of love and light, The beautiful city long foretold, With gates of pearl and streets of gold. I'm nearing the land where the ransom'd meet To cast their crowns at our Saviour's feet, The restful land where tears ne'er fall, And God Himself shall be all in all. 2 The land where the living fountains flow, Where leaves for the healing of nations grow The land that shall never know a blight Where Christ is its joy and God its light. The past shall fade as a mournful dream When we bathe in life's celestial stream And harps of heav'n with sweet accord, Shall welcome us home to see our Lord. 3 Redeem'd from sin and freed from woes, We'll follow the Lamb wherever He goes, And spotless before His Father's throne His chosen ones will our Saviour own. Life's sorrow and pain, change and decay, In the light of heav'n shall fade away In the many mansions of the blest, Our heav'n shall be the Redeemers breast. 4 By the magnet of love, Christ yet shall draw A world astray to His holy law, And earth subdued by love divine, Into His Father's hands resign. The gates of life shall be opened wide, Shall ne'er be closed by hate or pride, Nor sorrow nor pain nor wild despair, Shall ever intrude or enter there.
