Blaze On, O Cross of Glory
Author: Rev. L. F. Cole Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Galatians 6:14 First Line: Shadows deep across the world Refrain First Line: Blaze on, then, O Cross of Glory Lyrics: 1 Shadows deep across the world,
Hide the path I fain would go;
Oft in dang’rous paths I’m hurl’d,
Fill’d with doubt and fear and woe.
Refrain:
Blaze on, then, O Cross of Glory,
Flame out grandly thro’ the night;
Flame on, flame on in thy beauty,
Fill the darken’d world with light.
2 Bursting out upon the gloom,
Flames the cross in beauty bright;
I can shun my dreaded doom,
If I follow in its light. [Refrain]
3 As the moon marks all the night,
Silver paths across the sea,
Mark, O cross, a way of light,
Thro’ this world’s dark night for me. [Refrain]
4 When the morn breaks in the east,
I shall stand beneath thy arms,
Safe beside thee I shall rest,
Safe from all the world’s alarms. [Refrain]
5 Gate of Paradise thou art,
Ever open to my feet;
Shining thro’ thee to my heart,
Heaven’s beauteous light I greet. [Refrain]
6 So I hope at last to stand,
Where there shall be no more night;
One of heaven’s praising band,
Led there by thy blessed light. [Refrain]

Farewel, vain World, from thee I cease
Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Galatians 6:14 Lyrics: 1 Farewel, vain World, from thee I cease,
Having survey'd thee round;
Thy Honour, Wealth, thy Joy and Peace,
I've now a Bubble found.
2 Thou hast disosn'd and ahted me,
Whilst I to please thee strove;
Now I disown and flee from thee,
And from thy hated Love.
3 To my thy Rage, and cruel Hate,
In infant Years began;
Nor did it in the least abate,
When I grew up to Man.
4 Thro' Disappointments all my Days,
I've been by thee opprest:
Yea, curs'd and cross'd in all the Ways,
Where other Men were blest.
5 The Good I sought, was still deny'd
By thee, vain World, with Scorn,
Until my Soul, in Anguish cry'd,
O Lord, why was I born?
6 Then, lifting up my weeping Eye,
I saw my Saviour stand,
Array'd in glorious Majesty,
The Balance in his Hand.
7 This World, and all its Glories high,
He weigh'd with prudent Care,
Against the lightest Vanity,
And found it lighter far.
8 His Love-Designs he made me know:
Then that fictitious Dream,
This World, with all the painted Show,
Flew up and kick'd the Beam.
9 Now art thy crucify'd to me;
Yet I've sustain'd no Loss:
And I am crucify'd to thee,
Thanks to my Saviour's Cross!
10 No more deluded by thy Smiles,
Nor crush'd beneath thy Frown;
My Jesus blasts thy Cobweb Wiles,
And gives the glorious Crown.
Farewel, vain World, from thee I cease

Sing Praises Old and New
Author: Brian Wren (1936-) Meter: 6.7.6.7.6.6.6.7 Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Galatians 6:1-16 Lyrics: 1 Sing praises old and new,
past and present join in one.
Old covenants renew:
new commitments have begun.
God's soaring purpose spans
all ages, lives and lands.
Christ's open, wounded hands
past and present join in one.
2 Word, from the heart of God,
costly, unexpected grace;
Love, making all things good,
Light of all the human race;
hail, Wisdom, deep and vast,
shining in Israel's past,
raising the least and last:
costly, unexpected grace!
3 Great Spirit, make us wise,
doors of promise open wide.
Through evil's deadly lies
truth and goodness set aside,
faith never stands alone,
hope rolls away the stone,
love makes your presence known,
doors of promise open wide.
4 People of hope, be strong!
Love is making all things new.
Lift our united song,
show what faith can dream and do!
Come, Presence ever near,
revive us, year by year.
Sing through our joy and fear,
"Love is making all things new!" Topics: Christian Life; Covenant; Hope; Love; Wisdom Used With Tune: FONDREN

God Forbid That I Should Glory
Author: Charles P. Jones Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Galatians 6:14 First Line: God forbid that I should glory only in the cross of Christ Lyrics: 1 God forbid that I should glory only in the cross of Christ,
Only in the lowly Jesus by the high and proud despised;
Nor shall any fond ambition turn my heart from Him away,
I shall know no one but Jesus, Jesus, Jesus ev'ry day.
None but Jesus crucified, Jesus Christ Who for me died;
I shall know no one but Jesus, Jesus, Jesus ev'ry day.
2 God forbid that I should glory in a life of pleasure gay,
May my Saviour's face before me turn me e'er from such away.
If I lose today's vain pleasure, O my Saviour, all for Thee,
Thou, I know, wilt well repay me in Thy vast eternity.
None but Jesus crucified, Jesus Christ Who for me died;
I shall know no one but Jesus, Jesus, Jesus ev'ry day.
3 God forbid that I should glory only in the daily cross,
For the prize that's set before me I would count all else but loss.
Friends and kindred, earthly honor, wealth and ease I all would flee,
Take my cross and daily follow Thee, my Saviour, only Thee.
None but Jesus crucified, Jesus Christ Who for me died;
I shall know no one but Jesus, Jesus, Jesus ev'ry day.
