Lead On, O King Eternal

Author: Ernest W. Shurtleff Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 402 hymnals Topics: Commitment, Dedication, Consecration, Devotion Lyrics: 1 Lead on, O King Eternal, The day of march has come; Henceforth in fields of conquest Thy tents shall be our home: Through days of preparation Thy grace has made us strong, And now, O King Eternal, We lift our battle song. 2 Lead on, O King Eternal, Till sin's fierce war shall cease, And holiness shall whisper The sweet amen of peace; For not with swords' loud clashing, Or roll of stirring drums; With deeds of love and mercy The heav'nly kingdom comes. 3 Lead on, O King Eternal, We follow not with fears; For gladness breaks like morning Where'er Thy face appears. Thy cross is lifted o'er us; We journey in its light: The crown awaits the conquest; Lead on, O God of might. Used With Tune: LANCASHIRE

Where is the soul-refreshing view of Jesus and his Word? 3 What peaceful hours I once enjoyed! How sweet their memory still! But they have left an aching void the world can never fill. 4 The dearest idol I have known, whate'er that idol be, help me to tear it from thy throne and worship only thee. 5 So shall my walk be close with God, calm and serene my frame; so purer light shall mark the road that leads me to the Lamb.

When I Survey the Wondrous Cross

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2,018 hymnals Topics: Commitment Lyrics: 1. When I survey the wondrous cross on which the Prince of Glory died, my richest gain I count but loss, and pour contempt on all my pride. 2. Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast, save in the death of Christ, my God; all the vain things that charm me most, I sacrifice them to his blood. 3. See, from his head, his hands, his feet, sorrow and love flow mingled down. Did e'er such love and sorrow meet, or thorns compose so rich a crown? 4. Were the whole realm of nature mine, that were an offering far too small; love so amazing, so divine, demands my soul, my life, my all. Scripture: Galatians 6:14 Used With Tune: HAMBURG

For I am your God and will still give you aid; I'll strengthen and help you, and cause you to stand, upheld by my righteous omnipotent hand. 3 "When through the deep waters I call you to go, the rivers of sorrow shall not overflow; for I will be with you, your troubles to bless, and sanctify to you your deepest distress. 4 "When through fiery trials your pathway shall lie, my grace, all-sufficient, shall be your supply: the flame shall not hurt you, I only design your dross to consume, and your gold to refine. 5 "The soul that on Jesus has leaned for repose I will not -- I will not desert to his foes; that soul, though all hell should endeavour to shake, I'll never -- no, never -- no, never forsake!"
