Beneath the Cross of Jesus

Author: Elizabeth C. Clephane Hymnal: The New National Baptist Hymnal (21st Century Edition) #106 (2001) Topics: Commitment Lyrics: 1 Beneath the cross of Jesus I fain would take my stand, The shadow of a mighty Rock Within a weary land; A home within the wilderness, A rest upon the way From the burning of the noonday heat And the burden of the day. 2 Upon that cross of Jesus Mine eye at times can see The very dying form of One Who suffered there for me; And from my smitten heart with tears Two wonders I confess-- The wonders of His glorious love And my own worthlessness. 3 I take, O cross, thy shadow For my abiding place-- I ask no other sunshine than The sunshine of His face; Content to let the world go by, To know no gain nor loss, My sinful self my only shame, My glory all the cross.

No lion can him fright, I'll with a giant fight, but I shall have a right to be a pilgrim. 3 No word of foe or friend can daunt my spirit; I know I at the end will life inherit. Then fancies fly away; I'll fear not what they say; I'll labor night and day to be a pilgrim. Languages: English Tune Title: MONK'S GATE

Have faith in God's great power, And bravely trusting it, still climb on. 3 Help to each other give along the pathway leading above.

While the hope of endless glory fills my heart with joy and love, teach me ever to adore thee; may I still thy goodness prove. 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 Oh, 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, oh, take and seal it; seal it for thy courts above.

My Life Flows On in Endless Song

Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #108 (1993) Topics: Words and Deeds of Prophetic Women and Men Commitment and Action Lyrics: 1 My life flows on in endless song above earth’s lamentation. I hear the real though far-off hymn that hails a new creation. Through all the tumult and the strife, I hear the music ringing. It sounds an echo in my soul. How can I keep from singing? 2 What though the tempest 'round me roars, I know the truth, it liveth. What though the darkness 'round me close, songs in the night it giveth. No storm can shake my inmost calm while to that rock I'm clinging. Since love prevails in heav'n and earth, how can I keep from singing? 3 When tyrants tremble as they hear the bells of freedom ringing, when friends rejoice both far and near, how can I keep from singing! To prison cell and dungeon vile our thoughts to them are winging; when friends by shame are undefiled, how can I keep from singing? Languages: English Tune Title: SINGING
