If Jesus should come today.

Jesus, my Lord, I soon shall see;
Glad day! Glad day! Is it the crowning day?

Hail to the radiant throng!
If I should go home today. [Refrain]

Glad day! Glad day!
And I will freely tell
Why I should love Him so well,
For He is my all today. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Jesus may come today]
Is It the Crowning Day?
I know whom I believe in
Author: Ernst Moritz Arndt Appears in 9 hymnals Topics: First Sunday after Easter Lyrics: 1 I know whom I believe in,
I know what firm abides,
When all around me fading
Away like vapor glides.
I know what lasts forever,
When all things shake and fall,
When wit the wise forsaketh,
And craft doth craft forestall.
2 It is the Light of Glory;
It is my Jesus, King;
It is the Rock I stand on;
It is of this I sing.
He never more shall fail me,
Deliv'rer, Shepherd mine,
He lighteth all my darkness,
He makes my path to shine.
3 He whom blood-stained they buried
In the still twilight hour,
He whom God waked from slumber,
He who arose in power:
He for my guilt atoneth,
To me His Spirit gives,
Me with His grace He crowneth:
I live because He lives.
4 I know what I believe in,
I know what standeth fast,
And what, when earth shall crumble,
Uncrumbled, still shall last;
Through sorrow it bides with me,
Mine when to death I bow,
In heaven it will assure me
A crown to deck my brow. Used With Tune: WEBB (Goodwin)
I know whom I believe in
In Christ There Is No East or West
Author: John Oxenham Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 332 hymnals Topics: Easter 5 Year B; Easter 5 Year C Lyrics: 1 In Christ there is no east or west,
in him no south or north,
but one great family of love
throughout the whole wide earth.
2 In him shall true hearts everywhere
their high communion find;
his service is the golden cord
close binding humankind.
3 Join hands, then, peoples of the faith,
whate'er your race may be;
all children of the living God
are surely kin to me.
4 In Christ now meet both east and west,
in him meet south and north:
all Christ-like souls are one in him
throughout the whole wide earth. Used With Tune: MCKEE

Is This a Day of New Beginnings
Author: Brian Wren, b. 1936 Meter: 9.8.9.8 Appears in 23 hymnals Topics: Easter Season Lyrics: 1 Is this a day of new beginnings,
Time to remember and move on,
Time to believe what love is bringing,
Laying to rest the pain that's gone?
2 How can the seasons of a planet
Mindlessly spinning 'round its sun
With just a human name and number
Say that some new thing has begun?
3 Yet thro' the life and death of Jesus
Love's mighty Spirit, now as then,
Can make for us a world of diff'rence,
As faith and hope are born again.
4 Then let us, with the Spirit's daring,
Step from the past and leave behind
Its disappointment, guilt, and grieving,
Seeking new paths, and sure to find.
5 So let us gather 'round the table
To taste and share what love can do.
This is the day of new beginnings--
Our God is making all things new. Used With Tune: STEEPLE BELLS

In vain would boasting reason find
Author: Anne Steele Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 42 hymnals Topics: Easter Season, Second Sunday Lyrics: 1 In vain would boating reason find
The path to happiness and God;
Her weak directions leave the mind
Bewildered in a doubtful road.
2 Jesus, Thy words alone impart
Eternal life; on these I live;
Here sweeter comforts cheer my heart,
Than all the powers of nature give.
3 Here let my constant feet abide;
Thou art the true, the living Way:
Let Thy good Spirit be my Guide
To the bright realms of endless day.
4 The various forms that men devise
To shake my faith with treacherous art,
I scorn as vanity and lies,
And bind Thy Gospel to my heart. Used With Tune: MELCOMBE
In vain would boasting reason find
I Lay my Sins on Jesus
Author: Horatius Bonar Appears in 560 hymnals Topics: Passion and Easter Lyrics: 1 I lay my sins on Jesus,
The spotless Lamb of God;
He bears them all, and frees us
From the accursed load.
I bring my guilt to Jesus,
To wash my crimson stains
White in His blood most precious,
Till not a spot remains.
2 I lay my wants on Jesus;
All fullness dwells in Him:
He heals all my diseases,
He doth my soul redeem.
I lay my griefs on Jesus,
My burdens and my cares:
He from them all releases,
He all my sorrows shares.
3 I long to be like Jesus,
Meek, loving, lowly, mild:
I long to be like Jesus,
The Father's holy Child.
I long to be with Jesus,
Amid the heav'nly throng,
To sing with saints His praises,
To learn the angels' song. Used With Tune: CRUCIFIX
