Far Off I See the Goal

Author: Robert R. Roberts Meter: 11.11.12.11 Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: Far off I see the goal--O Savior, guide me Lyrics: 1. Far off I see the goal—O Savior, guide me; I feel my strength is small—be Thou beside me; With vision ever clear, with love that conquers fear, And grace to persevere, O Lord, provide me. 2. Whene’er Thy way seems strange, go Thou before me; And, lest my heart should change, O Lord, watch o’er me; But, should my faith prove frail, and I through blindness fail, O let Thy grace prevail, and still restore me. 3. Should earthly pleasures wane, and joy forsake me; And lonely hours of pain at length o’ertake me, My hand in Thine hold fast till sorrow be o’erpast, And gentle death at last for Heav’n awake me. 4. There, with the ransomed throng who praise forever The love that made them strong to serve forever, I, too, would seek Thy face, Thy finished work retrace, And magnify Thy grace, redeemed forever.

What Heavenly Music

Meter: 11.11.12.11 Appears in 6 hymnals First Line: What heavenly music steals over the sea Lyrics: 1. What heavenly music steals over the sea! Entrancing the senses like sweet melody! ’Tis the voice of the angels, borne soft on the air; For me they are singing; their welcome I hear. 2. On the banks of old Jordan, here gazing I stand, And earnestly longing, I stretch forth my hand; Send a convoy of angels, dear Jesus, I pray! Let me join that sweet music; come, take me away. 3. Though dark are the waters and rough is the wave, If Jesus permit, the wild surges I’ll brave; For that heavenly music hath ravished me so, I must join in that chorus! I’ll go! Let me go.

There's no discouragement shall make him once relent his first avowed intent to be a pilgrim. 2 Who so beset him round with dismal stories do but themselves confound, his strength the more is. No foes shall stay his might, though he with giants fight; he will make good his right to be a pilgrim. 3 Since, Lord, thou dost defend us with thy Spirit, we know we at the end shall life inherit. Then fancies flee away; I'll fear not what men say, I'll labor night and day to be a pilgrim. Used With Tune: MONK'S GATE
