The Better Day

Mansfield Hymnal: CYBER #9091 First Line: Oh, the Lamb that was slain Refrain First Line: Oh, the better day is coming Lyrics: 1 Oh, the Lamb that was slain, Soon is coming again, Coming back in His kingly array; The bright glory light, As it breaks on our sight, Shines the curse of the earth all away. Refrain: Oh, the better day is coming, The day-star is shining, The better day is coming by and by; Oh, the better day is coming, In the dawning of the morning, The better day is coming by and by. 2 Then look up, weary saint, For thy mourning shall end, And the fountain of tears shall be dried: Sing, joyfully sing, Unto Jesus the King, Who will reign with His bride at His side.

Star Of Bethlehem

Author: Charles W. Ray Hymnal: CYBER #9092 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: Star of Bethlehem, thy glory Lyrics: 1 Star of Bethlehem, thy glory Long has been the lofty theme Of sublimest song and story Of our Lord and king supreme; Still thy radiance seems to linger In the eastern evening sky, And with bright prophetic finger Points to blissful realms on high. 2 Star of Bethlehem, blest emblem, Of the Prince of life and light, Seen of wise men, thou didst guide them Thro’ the long and cheerless night; Resting o’er the lowly manger, Where the Savior’s bed was made, Shepherd Jew and Gentile stranger, At His feet their offerings laid. 3 Star of Bethlehem! How glorious! Herald of the infant King, Who, o’er sin and death victorious, Shall His saints to glory bring; Star of hope for every nation, Let thy beams each soul inflame; Light and life, and full salvation, Dwell within thy sacred name.

Jesu, The Growing Work Is Thine

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: CYBER #9096 Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Jesu, the growing work is Thine, And who shall hinder its success? In vain the alien armies join Thy glorious Gospel to suppress, And vow, with Satan’s aid, to o’erthrow, The work Thy grace revives below. 2 The wary world, as Julian wise, Wise with the wisdom from beneath, A while its milder malice tries, And lets these mad enthusiasts breathe, Breathe to infect their purest air, And spread the plague of virtue there. 3 Wondering the calm despisers stand, And dream that they the respite give. Restrained by Thine o’erruling hand, They kindly suffer us to live, Live to defy their master’s frown, And turn his kingdom upside down. 4 Still the old dragon bites his chain, Not yet commissioned from on high; Rage the fierce Pharisees in vain; "Away with them," the zealots cry, And hoary Caiaphas exclaims, And Bonner dooms us to the flames. 5 But our great God, who reigns on high, Shall laugh their haughty rage to scorn, Scatter their evil with His eye, Or to His praise their fierceness turn; While all their efforts to remove His Church, shall stablish her in love. 6 Yes, Lord, Thy promise-word is true, Our sacred hairs are numbered all; Though earth and hell our lives pursue, Without Thy leave we cannot fall; And if Thou slack the murderer’s chain, We suffer but with Thee to reign. 7 Our sufferings shall advance Thy cause, And blunt the persecutor’s sword, Dispread the victory of Thy cross, And glorify our conquering Lord. Evil shall work for Sion’s good: Its seed is still the martyr’s blood. Languages: English Tune Title: BROWNWELL

Dear Dying Lamb

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: CYBER #9097 Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 First Line: Dear dying Lamb, for whom alone Lyrics: 1 Dear dying Lamb, for whom alone We suffer pain, and shame, and loss, Hear Thine afflicted people groan, Crushed by the burden of Thy cross, And bear our fainting spirits up, And bless the bitter, sacred cup. 2 Drunkards, and slaves of lewd excess, Bad, lawless men, Thou knowst, we lived: The world, and we were then at peace, No devil his own servants grieved; Evil we did, but suffered none: The world will always love its own. 3 But now we would Thy Word obey, And strive to escape the wrath divine, Exposed to all, a helpless prey, Bruised by our enemies, and Thine, As sheep midst ravening wolves we lie, And daily grieve, and daily die. 4 Smitten, we turn the other cheek, Our ease, and name, and goods forego, Help, or redress no longer seek In any child of man below; The powers Thou didst for us ordain, For us they bear the sword in vain. 5 But wilt Thou not at last appear, Into Thine hand the matter take? We look for no protection here, But Thee our only refuge make, To Thee, O righteous Judge, appeal, And wait Thy just and perfect will. 6 Thou wilt not shut Thy bowels up, Or justice to the oppressed deny; Thy mercy’s ears Thou cannot stop, Against the mournful prisoners’ cry, Who ever make our humble moan, And look for help to Thee alone. 7 Then help us meekly to sustain The cross of man’s oppressive power, To slight the shame, endure the pain, And calmly wait the welcome hour, That brings the fiery chariot down, And whirls us to our heav’nly crown.

Step By Step

Author: Josiah Carley Hymnal: CYBER #9098 First Line: Step by step, our Father leads us upward Lyrics: 1 Step by step, our Father leads us upward, Ever higher, to our home above; Step by step, forever going onward, In His hand, and trusting in His love. Though oft our hearts may ache with silent longing Which only He our Lord may know, One day we’ll understand the joy and blessing Which came from serving Him below. 2 Step by step, our characters are molded By our Savior’s loving, tender hands, Step by step, as ev’ry day unfolded, Brings us nearer right to where He stands. For through our deepest trials He is faithful; His love our emptiness will fill. And thus our Lord will make us to be joyful, Through faith and trust within Him still. 3 Step by step, He leads through sunny weather, In His arms, the storms we have withstood; And we know that all things work together, By His care, for all our highest good. For though we may not understand His workings, Or grasp the wisdom of His plans, One day we’ll see the beauty of His doings, And know the love of His commands. 4 Step by step, with each one drawing nearer To our everlasting home on high; Step by step, with each one He is dearer; For our sins, for us, He bled and died. Not long will pass before our journey’s ended, And this old life will be no more; For He who by all Heaven is attended, Shall lead us all to Canaan’s shore.

Step Into The Fountain
