I love to tell the story, it did so much for me; and that is just the reason I tell it now to thee. [Refrain] 3 I love to tell the story; 'tis pleasant to repeat what seems, each time I tell it, more wonderfully sweet. I love to tell the story, for some have never heard the message of salvation from God's own holy Word. [Refrain] 4 I love to tell the story, for those who know it best seem hungering and thirsting to hear it like the rest. And when in scenes of glory I sing the new, new song, 'twill be the old, old story that I have loved so long. [Refrain] Scripture: Psalm 66:16 Used With Tune: I LOVE TO TELL THE STORY

And is the gospel peace and love?

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 195 hymnals Topics: Christ Life and Ministry Lyrics: 1 And is the gospel peace and love? Such let our conversation be; The serpent blended with the dove, Wisdom and meek simplicity. 2 Whene'er the angry passions rise, And tempt our thoughts or tongues to strife: On Jesus let us fix our eyes, Bright pattern of the Christian life. 3 O how benevolent and kind! How mild! how ready to forgive! Be this the temper of our mind, And these the rules by which we live. 4 To do his heav'nly Father's will, Was his employment and delight: Humility and holy zeal Shone thro' his life divinely bright. 5 Dispensing good where'er he came, The labours of his life were love. If then we love the Saviour's name, Let his divine example move!

From Calv'ry's sacred mountain

Appears in 7 hymnals Topics: Church her ministry Lyrics: 1 From Calv'ry's sacred mountain Where hung the Son of God, Whilst from His heart's deep fountain Gush'd forth the crimson flood, The voice of mercy plighted, Bids us, in Jesus' name, Proclaim to the benighted The Lamb for sinners slain. 2 Come, brethren, whom, anointed With unction from on high, The Master has appointed To preach His kingdom nigh; We'll haste, o'er mount and river, Through city, town, and plain, The ruin'd to deliver From death and Satan's chain. 3 Soon will our race be ended, Our journey soon be o'er, By Jesus' arm defended, We'll reach fair Canaan's shore, Where grateful plaudits greet us, Throughout the heavenly dome, And blesséd spirits meet us, to shout us welcome home. 5 There may this congregation Unite to swell the theme Of blood-bought, free salvation, Through faith in Jesus' name: O Jesus! Rock of Ages! The God we all adore, Through earth's bewild'ring stages Guide us to Canaan's shore!

For Your Gift of God the Spirit

Author: Margaret Clarkson Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 12 hymnals Topics: Holy Spirit Ministry Lyrics: 1 For your gift of God the Spirit, power to make our lives anew, pledge of life and hope of glory, Savior, we would worship you. Crowning gift of resurrection sent from your ascended throne, fullness of the very Godhead, come to make your life our own. 2 He, who in creation's dawning brooded on the lifeless deep, still across our nature's darkness moves to wake our souls from sleep, moves to stir, to draw, to quicken, thrusts us through with sense of sin; brings to birth and seals and fills us-- saving Advocate within. 3 He, himself the living Author, wakes to life the sacred Word; reads with us its holy pages and reveals our risen Lord. He it is who works within us, teaching rebel hearts to pray, he whose holy intercessions rise for us both night and day. 4 He, the mighty God, indwells us; his to strengthen, help, empower; his to overcome the Tempter-- ours to call in danger's hour. In his strength we dare to battle all the raging hosts of sin, and by him alone we conquer foes without and foes within. 5 Father, grant your Holy Spirit in our hearts may rule today, grieved not, quenched not, but unhindered, work in us his sovereign way. Fill us with your holy fullness, God the Father, Spirit, Son; in us, through us, then, forever, shall your perfect will be done. Scripture: Genesis 1:2 Used With Tune: BLAENWERN
