Lord Jesus, think on me

Author: Rev. A. W. Chatfield; Synesius Hymnal: HRGC1892 #614 (1894) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus, think on me, And purge away my sin: From earth-born passions set me free, And make me pure within. 2 Lord Jesus, think on me, With care and woe opprest, Let me Thy loving servant be, And taste Thy promised rest. 3 Lord Jesus, think on me, Nor let me go astray; Through darkness and perplexity Point Thou the heavenly way. 4 Lord Jesus, think on me, That, when the flood is past, I may the eternal brightness see, And share Thy joy at last.

O Jesus, I have promised

Author: Rev. J. E. Bode Hymnal: HRGC1892 #615 (1894) Meter: 7.6 D Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, I have promised To serve Thee to the end; Be Thou forever near me, My Master and my Friend! I shall not fear the battle If Thou art by my side, Nor wander from the pathway If Thou wilt be my guide. 2 Oh, let me feel Thee near me! The world is ever near; I see the sights that dazzle, The tempting sounds I hear; My foes are ever near me, Around me and within; But, Jesus, draw Thou nearer, And shield my soul from sin. 3 Oh, let me hear Thee speaking In accents clear and still, Above the storms of passion, The murmurs of self-will! Oh, speak to re-assure me, To hasten or control! Oh, speak, and make me listen, Thou guardian of my soul! 4 O Jesus, Thou hast promised To all who follow Thee, That where Thou art in glory There shall Thy servant be; And, Jesus, I have promised To serve Thee to the end; Oh, give me grace to follow, My Master and my Friend! 5 Oh, let me see Thy foot-marks, And in them plant my own! My hope to follow duly Is in thy strength alone, Oh, guide me, call me, draw me, Uphold me to the end! At last in heaven receive me, My Saviour and my Friend! Amen.

Call them in! the poor, the wretched

Author: Anna Shipton Hymnal: HRGC1892 #619 (1894) Meter: 8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Call them in! the poor, the wretched, Sin-stained wanderers from the fold; Peace and pardon freely offer! Can you weigh their worth with gold? Call them in! the weak, the weary, Laden with the doom of sin; Bid them come and rest in Jesus! He is waiting: call them in! 2 Call them in! the Jew, the Gentile; Bid the stranger to the feast! Call them in! the rich, the noble, From the highest to the least. Forth the Father runs to meet them, He hath all their sorrows seen; Robe, and ring, and kiss of pardon, Wait the lost ones: call them in! 3 Call them in! the broken-hearted, Cowering 'neath the brand of shame; Speak love's message low and tender! 'Twas for sinners Jesus came. See the shadows lengthen round us, Soon the day-dawn will begin; Call them in! the lost and lonely; Christ is coming: call them in! Amen.

Onward, Christian! though the region

Author: Samuel Johnson Hymnal: HRGC1892 #620 (1894) Meter: 8.7 Lyrics: 1 Onward, Christian! though the region Where thou art be drear and lone; God has set a guardian legion Very near thee; press thou on! 2 Listen, Christian! their hosanna Rolleth o'er thee: "God is love;" Write upon thy red-cross banner, "Upward ever; heaven's above." 3 By the thorn-road, and none other, Is the mount of vision won; Tread it without shrinking, brother! Jesus trod it; press thou on! 4 Be this world the wiser, stronger, For thy life of pain and peace, While it needs thee; oh, no longer Pray thou for thy quick release! 5 Pray thou, Christian, daily rather, That thou be a faithful son; By the prayer of Jesus, "Father, Not my will, but Thine, be done." Amen. Topics: Parochial Missions; Progress Languages: English Tune Title: [Onward, Christian! though the region]

Days and moments quickly flying

Author: Rev. E. Caswall Hymnal: HRGC1892 #621 (1894) Meter: Irregular Lyrics: 1 Days and moments quickly flying Speed us onward to the dead: OH, how soon shall we be lying Each within his narrow bed! 2 Jesus, merciful Redeemer, Rouse dead souls to hear Thy voice; Wake, oh, wake, each idle dreamer Now to make the eternal choice! 3 Mark me whither we are wending; Ponder how we soon must go To inherit bliss unending Or eternity of woe. Life passeth soon; Death draweth near; Keep us, good Lord, Till Thou appear; With Thee to live, With Thee to die, With Thee to reign Through eternity! 4 As a shadow life is fleeting; As a vapor so it flies; For the bygone years retreating Pardon grant, and make us wise; 5 Wise that we our days may number, Strive and wrestle with our sin; Stay not in our work, nor slumber Till Thy holy rest we win. 6 Soon before the Judge all glorious We with all the dead shall stand: Saviour, over death victorious, Place us then on Thy right hand. Life passeth soon; Death draweth near; Keep us, good Lord, Till Thou appear; With Thee to live, With Thee to die, With Thee to reign Through eternity! Amen.

My hope is built on nothing less

Author: Rev. Edward Mote Hymnal: HRGC1892 #622 (1894) Lyrics: 1 My hope is built on nothing less Than Jesus' blood and righteousness; I dare not trust the sweetest frame, But wholly lean on Jesus' Name. On Christ, the solid rock I stand; All other ground is shifting sand. 2 When clouds and darkness veil His face, I rest on His unchanging grace; In every high and stormy gale My anchor holds within the veil. On Christ, the solid rock I stand; All other ground is shifting sand. 3 His word, His covenant, His blood, Support me in the 'whelming flood; When all around my soul gives way, He then is all my hope and stay. On Christ, the solid rock I stand; All other ground is shifting sand. 4 When He shall come, with trumpet sound, Oh, may I then in Him be found! Dressed in His righteousness alone, Faultless to stand before the throne. On Christ, the solid rock I stand; All other ground is shifting sand. Amen.

And time's wild wintry blast Soon shall be over-past; I shall reach home at last, Heaven is my home. 3 Therefore I murmur not, Heaven is my home; Whate'er my earthly lot, Heaven is my home. And I shall surely stand There at my Lord's right hand; Heaven is my fatherland, Heaven is my home. Amen.
