Jesus, I My Cross Have Taken
"Looking unto Jesus"
Author: John N. Darby Appears in 153 hymnals Topics: Hope Under Afflictions; Hope Under Afflictions First Line: O eyes that are weary, and hearts that are sore! Lyrics: 1 O eyes that are weary, and hearts that are sore!
Look off unto Jesus, now sorrow no more!
The light of his countenance shineth so bright,
That here, as in heaven, there need be no night.
2 While looking to Jesus, my heart cannot fear;
I tremble no more when I see Jesus near;
I know that his presence my safeguard will be,
For, "Why are you troubled," he saith unto me.
3 Still looking to Jesus, oh, may I be found,
When Jordan's dark waters encompass me round;
They bear me away in his presence to be:
I see him still nearer whom always I see.
4 Then, then, shall I know the full beauty and grace
Of Jesus, my Lord, when I stand face to face;
Shall know how his love went before me each day,
And wonder that ever my eyes turned away. Used With Tune: GOSHEN
"Looking unto Jesus"
"He knoweth the way"
Author: Horatius Bonar Appears in 401 hymnals Topics: Afflictions; Christians Afflictions First Line: Thy way, not mine, O Lord Lyrics: 1 Thy way, not mine, O Lord!
However dark it be!
Lead me by thine own hand;
Choose out my path for me.
I dare not choose my lot:
I would not, if I might;
Choose thou for me, my God,
So shall I walk aright.
2 The kingdom that I seek
Is thine: so let the way
That leads to it be thine,
Else I must surely stray.
Take thou my cup, and it
With joy or sorrow fill,
As best to thee may seem;
Choose thou my good and ill.
3 Choose thou for me my friends,
My sickness or my health;
Choose thou my cares for me,
My poverty or wealth.
Not mine, not mine the choice,
In things or great or small;
Be thou my Guide, my Strength,
My Wisdom and my All. Used With Tune: JEWETT
"He knoweth the way"
The Homeland
Author: Henry W. Baker Appears in 191 hymnals Topics: Afflictions; Christians Afflictions First Line: There is a blessed home Lyrics: 1 There is a blessed home
Beyond this land of woe,
Where trials never come,
Nor tears of sorrow flow;
Where faith is lost in sight,
And patient hope is crowned,
And everlasting light
Its glory throws around.
2 There is a land of peace;
Good angels know it well;
Glad songs that never cease
Within its portals swell;
Around its glorious throne
Ten thousand saints adore
Christ, with the Father one,
And Spirit, evermore.
3 Look up, ye saints of God!
Nor fear to tread below
The path your Saviour trod
Of daily toil and woe;
Wait but a little while
In uncomplaining love;
His own most gracious smile
Shall welcome you above.

Thou Lamb of God, Thou Prince of Peace
Author: J. Wesley, 1703-1791; C. H. Richter, 1676-1711 Appears in 77 hymnals Topics: Afflictions Prayer in Lyrics: 1 Thou Lamb of God, Thou Prince of Peace,
For Thee my thirsty soul doth pine;
My longing heart implores Thy grace;
O make me in Thy likeness shine!
2 With fraudless, even, humble mind,
Thy will in all things may I see;
In love be every wish resigned,
And hallowed my whole heart to Thee.
3 When pain o'er my weak flesh prevails,
With lamb-like patience arm my breast;
When grief my wounded soul assails,
In lowly meekness may I rest.
4 Close by Thy side still may I keep,
Howe'er life's various current flow;
With steadfast eye mark every step,
And follow Thee where'er Thou go.
5 Thou, Lord, the dreadful fight hast won;
Alone Thou hast the winepress trod;
In me Thy strengthening grace be shown;
O may I conquer through Thy blood!
6 So, when on Zion Thou shalt stand,
And all heaven's host adore their King,
Shall I be found at Thy right hand,
And free from pain Thy glories sing. Used With Tune: MASON
Thou Lamb of God, Thou Prince of Peace
When gathering clouds around I view
Author: Sir R. Grant, 1735-1838 Appears in 276 hymnals Topics: Afflictions Christ with us in Lyrics: 1 When gathering clouds around I view,
And days are dark, and friends are few,
On Him I lean, who not in vain
Experienced every human pain;
He knows my wants, allays my fears,
And counts and treasures all my tears.
2 If aught should tempt my soul to stray
From heavenly wisdom's narrow way,
To fly the good I would pursue,
Or do the thing I would not do;
Still He, who felt temptation's power,
Shall guard me in that dangerous hour.
3 If wounded love my bosom swell,
Deceived by those I prized too well,
He shall His pitying aid bestow,
Who felt on earth severer woe
At once betrayed, denied, or fled,
By those who shared His daily bread.
4 And oh! when I have safely passed
Through every conflict but the last,
Still, still unchanging, watch beside
My dying bed for Thou hast died;
Then point to realms of cloudless day,
And wipe the latest tear away. Used With Tune: ATTOLLE PAULUM
