Onward, Christian soldiers

Appears in 1,849 hymnals Topics: The Christian Graces Lyrics: 1 Onward, Christian soldiers, Marching as to war, With the cross of Jesus Going on before. Christ, the royal Master, Leads against the foe; Forward into battle, See His banners go! Onward, Christian soldiers, Marching as to war, With the cross of Jesus Going on before. 2 At the sign of triumph Satan's armies flee; On, then, Christian soldiers, On to victory! Hell's foundations quiver, At the shout of praise; Brothers, lift your voices, Loud your anthems raise! Onward, Christian soldiers, Marching as to war, With the cross of Jesus Going on before. 3 Like a mighty army Moves the church of God: Brothers, we are treading Where the saints have trod. We are not divided, All one body we, One in hope, in doctrine, One in charity. Onward, Christian soldiers, Marching as to war, With the cross of Jesus Going on before. 4 Crowns and thrones may perish Kingdoms rise and wane, But the church of Jesus Constant will remain. Gates of hell can never 'Gainst that church prevail; We have Christ's own promise, And that cannot fail. Onward, Christian soldiers, Marching as to war, With the cross of Jesus Going on before. 5 Onward, then, ye faithful, Join our happy throng, Blend with ours yours voices, In the triumph-song! Glory, laud, and honor Unto Christ, the King: This through countless ages, Men and angels sing. Onward, Christian soldiers, Marching as to war, With the cross of Jesus Going on before.

Jesus, when a little Child

Appears in 34 hymnals Topics: The Christian Graces Lyrics: 1 Jesus, when a little Child, Taught us what we ought to be; Holy, harmless, undefiled. Was the Saviour's infancy; All the Father's glory shone In the person of the Son. 2 As in age and strength He grew, Heavenly wisdom filled His breast; Crowds attentive round Him drew, Wondering at their Infant Guest; Gazed upon His lovely face, Saw Him full of truth and grace. 3 In His heavenly Father's house Jesus spent His early days; There He paid His solemn vows, There proclaimed His Father's praise; Thus it was His lot to gain Favor both with God and man. 4 Father, guide our steps aright In the way that Jesus trod; May it be our great delight To obey Thy will, O God! Then to us shall soon be given Endless bliss with Christ in heaven.

Come with faith, bow down to God who gives us breath: God is our shepherd, God alone; we are his people, all his own. 5 But if you hear his voice today do not reject what he will say; when Israel wandered from God's path they suffered forty years of wrath. 6 That generation went astray; they did not want to know his way: they put their Saviour to the test, and saw his power, but lost their rest.

Contentment

Author: William Cowper Appears in 53 hymnals Topics: Christians Graces First Line: O Lord, how full of sweet content Lyrics: 1 O Lord, how full of sweet content Our years of pilgrimage are spent! Where'er we dwell, we dwell with thee, In heaven, in earth, or on the sea. 2 To us remains nor place nor time: Our country is in every clime: We can be calm and free from care On any shore, since God is there. 3 While place we seek, or place we shun, The soul finds happiness in none; But with our God to guide our way, 'Tis equal joy to go or stay. 4 Could we be cast where thou art not, That were indeed a dreadful lot; But regions none remote we call, Secure of finding God in all.
