Never Alone!

Appears in 146 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 13:5 First Line: I've seen the lightning flashing Refrain First Line: No, never alone Lyrics: 1 I’ve seen the lightning flashing, And heard the thunder roll, I’ve felt sin’s breakers dashing, Trying to conquer my soul; I’ve heard the voice of my Savior, Telling me still to fight on; He promised never to leave me, Never to leave me alone! Chorus: No, never alone, No, never alone, He promised never to leave me, He'll claim me for His own. No, never alone, No, never alone, He promised never to leave me, Never to leave me alone. 2 The world’s fierce winds are blowing; Temptation’s sharp and keen; I have a peace in knowing My Savior stands between—- He stands to shield me from danger When earthly friends are gone; He promised never to leave me, Never to leave me alone. (Chorus) 3 When in affliction’s valley I tread the road of care, My Savior helps me to carry My cross so heavy to bear; Tho' all around me is darkness, Earthly joys all flown; My Savior whispers His promise, Never to leave me alone. (Chorus) 4 He died on Calv'ry's mountain, For me they pierced His side, For me He opened that fountain, The crimson, cleansing tide; For me He’s waiteth in glory, Seated upon His throne, He promised never to leave me, Never to leave me alone.

Jesu, priceless treasure

Author: Johann Franck, 1618-1677; Catherine Winkworth, 1827-1878 Meter: 6.6.5.6.6.5.7.8.6 Appears in 134 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 13:5-6 Lyrics: 1 Jesu, priceless treasure, source of purest pleasure, truest friend to me; ah! how long in anguish shall my spirit languish yearning, Lord, for thee? Thine I am, O spotless Lamb, I will suffer naught to hide thee, naught I ask beside thee. 2 In thine arms I rest me, foes who would molest me cannot reach me here. Though the earth be shaking, every heart be quaking, Jesus calms my fear; lightnings flash and thunders crash; yet, though sin and hell assail me, Jesus will not fail me. *3 Satan, I defy thee; death, I now decry thee; fear, I bid thee cease. World, thou shalt not harm me nor thy threats alarm me while I sing of peace. God's great power guards every hour; earth and all its depths adore him, silent bow before him. 4 Hence with earthly treasure! Thou art all my pleasure, Jesus, all my choice. Hence, thou empty glory! naught to me thy story, told with tempting voice. Pain or loss, or shame or cross, shall not from my Saviour move me, since he deigns to love me. 5 Hence, all fear and sadness! For the Lord of gladness, Jesus, enters in; they who love the Father, though the storms may gather, still have peace within; yea, whate'er I here must bear, thou art still my purest pleasure, Jesu, priceless treasure!

To the Name of Our Salvation

Author: John Mason Neale (1818-1866) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 119 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 13:1-16 Lyrics: 1 To the Name of our salvation laud and honour let us pay, which for many a generation hid in God's foreknowledge lay; but with holy exultation we may sing aloud today. 2 Jesus is the name we treasure, name beyond what words can tell; name of gladness, name of pleasure, ear and heart delighting well; name of sweetness passing measure, saving us from sin and hell. 3 'Tis the name that whoso preaches speaks like music to the ear; who in prayer this name beseeches finds its comfort ever near; who its perfect wisdom reaches, heavenly joy possesses here. 4 Jesus is the name exalted over every other name; in this name, whene'er assaulted, we can put our foes to shame: strength to them who else had halted, eyes to blind and feet to lame. 5 Therefore we in love adoring, this most blessed name revere, holy Jesus, thee imploring so to write it in us here that, hereafter heavenward soaring, we may sing with angels there.
