"Let fall some handfuls"
Author: W. Gadsby Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: The Properties of Scripture First Line: When Ruth a gleaning went Lyrics: 1 [When Ruth a-gleaning went,
Jehovah was her guide;
To Boaz’ field he led her straight,
And she became his bride.]
2 Jesus my Boaz is;
My strength and portion too;
His word of grace the precious field,
Where I a-gleaning go.
3 O what a heavenly field!
What handfuls it contains!
What strength and comfort gleaners get,
To recompense their pains!
4 Rejoice, ye mourning souls;
Ye broken hearts, be strong;
The field is ripe for harvest now,
And ye shall glean ere long.
5 Ye gleaners, one and all,
Let Christ be all your song;
He is your strength and portion too,
And you to him belong.
6 [All blessings he contains;
He cannot let you starve;
The meanest gleaner in his field,
At length shall walk at large.]

And none can give me ease.

Can heal my lep'rous soul;

And that will make me whole. Scripture: Matthew 8:2-3

Elijah Bent and Touched the Earth
Author: Daniel Charles Damon Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Scripture-Based Lyrics: 1 Elijah bent and touched the earth,
his face between his knees.
He prayed to see a little cloud,
to feel a cooling breeze.
"I hear the sound of rushing rain,
the fragrance fills the air.
Go up now, look out toward the sea."
The boy saw nothing there.
2 "Why is Elijah sending me?
These seven times I go.
But wait! a cloud is forming there,
so small, so soft, so low,
no larger than a person's hand,
and rising from the sea.
As I looked out in my despair,
a cloud appeared to me."
3 "Go tell the wicked king to ride
his chariot back to town."
The sky turns black, the wind comes up,
the saving rain pours down.
Our lives and lands, both parched and dry,
are rich again with rain.
This land will blossom like a rose,
and joy may rise again. Scripture: 1 Kings 18:41-46 Used With Tune: RAIN SONG

The consequences of Election
Author: Beddome Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 18 hymnals Topics: Scripture Doctrines and Blessings God's Everlasting Love First Line: Who shall condemn to endless flames Lyrics: 1 Who shall condemn to endless flames
The chosen people of our God?
Since in the book of life their names
Are fairly writ in Jesu's blood.
2 He, for the sins of all the elect,
Hath a complete atonement made:
And justice never can expect
That the same debt should twice be paid.
3 Not tribulation, nakedness,
The famine, peril, or the sword;
Not persecution, or distress,
Can separate from Christ the Lord.
4 Nor life, nor death, nor depth, nor height,
Nor powers below, nor powers above;
Not present things, nor things to come,
Can change his purposes of love.
5 His sovereign mercy knows no end,
His faithfulness shall still endure:
And those who on his truth depend,
Shall find his word for ever sure. Scripture: Romans 8:33-39

Yet there is Room
Appears in 173 hymnals Topics: Scripture Invitations and Promises First Line: Ye dying sons of men Lyrics: 1 Ye dying sons of men,
Immerg'd in sin and woe,

In Jesus’ arms there yet is room.

Tho' poor, and blind, and lame:
All things are ready, sinners, come,
For every trembling soul there’s room.

His messengers proclaim;
He is a gracious Lord,
And faithful is his name:
Backsliding souls, return and come,
Cast off despair there yet is room.

Ye wand'ring sheep, draw near,
Christ calls you from above,
His charming accents hear!

Christians the Sons of God
Author: Dr. S. Stennett Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 84 hymnals Topics: Scripture Doctrines and Blessings Adoption First Line: Not all the nobles of the earth Lyrics: 1 Not all the nobles of the earth,
Who boast the honors of their birth,
Such real dignity can claim,
As those who bear the christian name.
2 To them the privilege is giv'n
To be the sons and heirs of heav'n;
Sons of the God who reigns on high,
And heirs of joys beyond the sky.
3 [On them, a happy chosen race,
Their father pours his riches grace:
To them his counsels he imparts,
And stamps his image on their hearts.
4 Their infant-cries, their tender age,
His pity and his love engage:
He clasps them in his arms, and there
Secures them with parental care.]
5 His will he makes them early know,
And teaches their young feet to go;
Whispers instruction to their minds,
And on their hearts his precepts binds.
6 When, thro' temptation they rebel,
His chast'ning rode ne makes them feel
Then, with a father's tender heart,
He sooths the pain, and heals the smart.
7 Their daily wants his hands supply,
Their steps he guards with watchful eye,
Leads them from earth to heaven above,
And crowns them with eternal love.
8 If I've the honor, Lord, to be
One of this num'rous family,
On me the gracious gift bestow,
To call thee Abba, father! too.
9 So may my conduct ever prove
My filial piety and love!
Whilst all my brethren clearly trace
Their father's likeness in my face.
Scripture: John 1:12
