O Friend of Souls

Author: W. C. Dessler Hymnal: AoP1882 #117 (1882) Person Name: W. C. Dessler First Line: O Friend of souls, how blest the time Lyrics: 1 O Friend of souls! how blest the time When in thy love I rest, When from my weariness I climb E’en to thy tender breast! The night of sorrow endeth there, Thy rays outshine the sun, And in thy pardon and thy care The heaven of heavens is won. 2 The world may call itself my foe, Or flatter and allure: I care not for the world; I go To this tried Friend and sure. And when life’s fiercest storms are sent Upon life’s wildest sea, My little bark is confident Because it holdeth thee. 3 To others death seems dark and grim, But no, O Lord, to me: I know thou ne’er forsakest him Who puts his trust in thee. Nay, rather, with a joyful heart I welcome the release From this dark desert, and depart To thy eternal peace. Tune Title: ROCKWELL

Comfort He Hath Spoken

Author: George W. Doane Hymnal: AoP1882 #36 (1882) Person Name: George W. Doane First Line: Broken hearted, weep no more Lyrics: 1 Broken hearted, weep no more! Hear what comfort he hath spoken, Smoking flax who ne’er hath quench’d, Bruised reed, who ne’er hath broken:— Ye who wander here below, Heavy-laden as you go; Come, with grief and sin oppressed, Come to me and be at rest; Come, with grief and sin oppressed, Come to me and be at rest. 2 Lamb of Jesus’ blood-bought flock, Brought again from sin and straying, Hear the Shepherd’s gentle voice,— ‘Tis a true and faithful saying; Greater love how can there be, Than to yield up life for thee? Bought with pang, and tear and sigh, Turn and live; why will ye die? Bought with pang, and tear and sigh, Turn and live; why will ye die? 3 Broken hearted, weep no more; Far from consolation flying; He who calls hath felt thy wound, Seen thy weeping, heard thy sighing; Bring thy broken heart to me; Welcome off’ring it shall be; Streaming tears and bursting sighs, Mine accepted sacrifice; Streaming tears and bursting sighs, Mine accepted sacrifice. Tune Title: [Broken hearted, weep no more]

Ellsworth First Line: Not where the work is the lightest Refrain First Line: O then to hear when he calls Lyrics: 1 Not where the work is the lightest, Jesus may call thee to go, Not where the yield is the greatest, Jesus may ask thee to sow; But where the fields are so barren, Nought that is fruit can be found, Digging ‘mid weeds, and the briers, Painfully tilling the ground. Refrain: Oh, then, to hear when he calls thee! Listening, all shall be plain, Oh, then, to go where he bids thee! Little, or much be the gain. 2 Not by the side of the reapers Jesus may call thee today, Not where the workmen are busy Binding the sheaves far away; But with the gleaners so patient, Gath’ring the grains one by one, Bringing to Jesus the handful, Hearing the joyful “well done.” [Refrain] Tune Title: [Not where the work is the lightest]

[Refrain] 3 Tho’ here our tears will often flow; often flow; often flow; Bereft and sorrowing oft we go, Yet Jesus sweetly saves me. For whilst I know thou art so near, No danger can I ever fear, The charge is still, “be of good cheer,” For Jesus sweetly saves me. [Refrain] 4 E’en tho’ we weep, ‘tis not in vain, not in vain, not in vain, E’en tho’ we die, to die is gain, So sweetly Jesus saves me. Who would mount up must needs bow down; Who’ll bear the cross shall wear the crown; Whilst Jesus smiles the world may frown, So sweetly Jesus saves me.
