Since Jesus came into my heart;
And my sins which were many are all washed away,
Since Jesus came into my heart. [Chorus]

Since Jesus came into my heart;
And no dark clouds of doubt now my pathway obscure,
Since Jesus came into my heart. [Chorus]

Since Jesus came into my heart;
And the gates of the City beyond I can see,
Since Jesus came into my heart. [Chorus]

Since Jesus came into my heart;
And I'm happy, so happy, as onward I go,
Since Jesus came into my heart. [Chorus] Used With Tune: [What a wonderful change in my life has been wrought]

The promised land
Author: S. Stennett Appears in 1,336 hymnals Topics: Heaven Promised land First Line: On Jordan's stormy banks I stand Refrain First Line: We will rest in the fair and happy land Lyrics: 1 On Jordan's stormy banks I stand,
And cast a wishful eye,
To Canaan's fair and happy land,
Where my possessions lie.
2 O the transporting, rapturous scene,
That rises to my sight!
Sweet fields array'd in living green,
And rivers of delight!
3 There fruits that never fail,
On trees immortal grow:
There rocks and hills, and brooks and vales,
With milk and honey flow.
4 All o'er those wide extended plains
Shines one eternal day;
There God, the sun for ever reigns,
And scatters night away.
5 No chilling winds, or poisonous breath
Can reach that healthful shore;
Sickness and sorrow, pain and death,
Are felt and fear'd no more.
6 When shall I reach that happy place,
And be for ever blest?
When shall I see my father's face,
And in his bosom rest?
7 Fill'd with delight, my raptur'd soul
Can here no longer stay:
Tho' Jordan's waves around me roll,
Fearless I'd launch away.
The promised land

Author: John H. Yates Appears in 217 hymnals Topics: Promise First Line: Encamped along the hills of light Refrain First Line: Faith is the victory! Lyrics: 1 Encamped along the hills of light,
Ye Christian soldiers, rise,
And press the battle ere the night
Shall veil the glowing skies.
Against the foe in vales below
Let all our strength be hurled;
Faith is the victory, we know,
That overcomes the world.
Chorus:
Faith is the victory!
Faith is the victory!
Oh, glorious victory,
That overcomes the world.
2 His banner over us is love,
Our sword the Word of God;
We tread the road the saints above
With shouts of triumph trod.
By faith they, like a whirlwind's breath,
Swept on o'er ev'ry field;
The faith by which they conquered Death
Is still our shining shield. [Chorus]
3 On ev'ry hand the foe we find
Drawn up in dread array;
Let tents of ease be left behind,
And - onward to the fray.
Salvation's helmet on each head,
With truth all girt about,
The earth shall tremble 'neath our tread,
And echo with our shout. [Chorus]
4 To him that overcomes the foe
White raiment shall be giv'n;
Before the angels he shall know
His name confessed in heav'n.
Then onward from the hills of light,
Our hearts with love aflame,
We'll vanquish all the hosts of night,
In Jesus' conquering name. (Chorus] Used With Tune: [Encamped along the hills of light]

Before him goes the herald, forerunner in the way,
the prophet of salvation, the harbinger of day.

to guide the feet of pilgrims along the paths of peace;
