Have no fear, he is near!

Soon his call you shall hear.
Then follow on, fresh courage take,
Till in His presence they shall dwell!
All is well! All is well!

Round His throne, for his own,
Where they may rest forever in His love,
Toil and tears all unknown.
There they shall sing eternal praise
To Him who saved them by His grace;
Through heaven's courts the song shall swell,
All is well! All is well!

When the trump we shall hear,
That summons us from earthly cares away,
At His side to appear!
But until then we'll labor on
In patience till our course is run,
Although the hour we may not tell,
All is well, All is well! Scripture: Romans 8:28 Languages: English Tune Title: ALL IS WELL
Come, Come, Ye Saints
My Heart Is Resting, O My God
Author: Anna Laetitia Waring Hymnal: The Hymnbook #406 (1955) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Contentment Lyrics: 1 My heart is resting, O my God,
I will give thanks and sing;
My heart is at the secret source
Of every precious thing.
I thirst for springs of heavenly life,
And here all day they rise;
I seek the treasure of Thy love,
And close at hand it lies.
2 I have a heritage of joy,
That yet I must not see;
But the hand that bled to make it mine
Is keeping it for me.
And a new song is in my mouth,
To long-loved music set:
"Glory to Thee for all the grace
I have not tasted yet."
3 My heart is resting, O my God,
My heart is in Thy care;
I hear the voice of joy and health
Resounding everywhere.
"Thou art my portion, saith my soul,"
Ten thousand voices say,
And the music of their glad Amen
Will never die away.
Amen. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 2:9 Tune Title: PENTATONE

Joy to abound;
So many gentle thoughts and deeds
Circling us round,
That in the darkest spot of earth
Some love is found.

The best in store;
We have enough, yet not too much
To long for more;
A yearning for a deeper peace
Not known before.

In Heavenly Love Abiding
Author: Anna Laetitia Waring Hymnal: The Hymnbook #417 (1955) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Contentment Lyrics: 1 In heavenly love abiding,
No change my heart shall fear,
And safe is such confiding,
For nothing changes here.
The storm may roar without me,
My heart may low be laid;
But God is round about me,
And can I be dismayed?
2 Wherever He may guide me,
No want shall turn me back;
My shepherd is beside me,
And nothing can I lack.
His wisdom ever waketh,
His sight is never dim;
He knows the way He taketh,
And I will walk with Him.
3 Green pastures are before me,
Which yet I have not seen;
Bright skies will soon be o'er me,
Where darkest clouds have been.
My hope I cannot measure,
The path to life is free;
My Saviour has my treasure,
And He will walk with me.
Amen. Scripture: Job 23:10 Tune Title: NYLAND

On the restless sea of time,
Somber skies and howling tempests
oft succeed a bright sunshine.

We will understand it better by and by.
Refrain:
By and by when the morning comes,
When the saints of God are gathered home,
We will tell the story how we've overcome;
For we'll understand it better by and by.

Of the things that life demands,
Want of food and want of shelter,
thirsty hills and barren lands.
We are trusting in the Lord,
And according to His Word,
We will understand it better by and by. [Refrain]
3 Trials dark on ev'ry hand,
And we cannot understand,
All the ways that God would lead us
to that blessed Promised Land.
But He guides us with His eye
And we'll follow till we die.
For we'll understand it better by and by. [Refrain]
4 Temptations, hidden snares
Often take us unawares,
And our hearts are made to bleed
for some thoughtless word or deed,
And we wonder why the test,
When we try to do our best,
But we'll understand it better by and by. [Refrain] Scripture: Matthew 19:6 Languages: English Tune Title: BY AND BY

Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing
Author: Robert Robinson Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #429 (2018) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Contentment First Line: Come, thou fount of ev'ry blessing Lyrics: 1 Come, thou fount of ev'ry blessing,
tune my heart to sing thy grace;
streams of mercy, never ceasing,
call for songs of loudest praise.
Teach me some melodious sonnet,
sung by flaming tongues above;
praise the mount! I'm fixed upon it,
mount of God's unchanging love.
2 Here I raise my Ebenezer;
hither by thy help I'm come;
and I hope, by thy good pleasure,
safely to arrive at home.
Jesus sought me when a stranger,
wand'ring from the fold of God:
he, to rescue me from danger,
interposed his precious blood.
3 O to grace how great a debtor
daily I'm constrained to be;
let that grace now, like a fetter,
bind my wand'ring heart to thee.
Prone to wander--Lord, I feel it--
prone to leave the God I love:
here's my heart, O take and seal it,
seal it for thy courts above. Scripture: 1 Samuel 7:12 Languages: English Tune Title: NETTLETON
Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing
Psalm 131
Author: John Newton Hymnal: Laudes Domini #432 (1888) Topics: Contentment First Line: Quiet, Lord, my froward heart Lyrics: 1 Quiet, Lord, my froward heart,
Make me teachable and mild,
Upright, simple, free from art,
Make me as a weaned child:
From distrust and envy free,
Pleased with all that pleased thee.
2 What thou shalt to-day provide,
Let me as a child receive;
What to-morrow may betide,
Calmly to thy wisdom leave:
'Tis enough that thou wilt care;
Why should I the burden bear?
3 As a little child relies
On a care beyond his own,
Knows he's neither strong nor wise,
Fears to stir a step alone;--
Let me thus with thee abide,
As my Father, Guard, and Guide. Scripture: Psalm 131:1 Languages: English Tune Title: GUIDE
Psalm 131
