My Surrender

Author: Gertrude E. Worthington Meter: 12.9.12.9 D Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: I have given up all to my Savior so dear Refrain First Line: He leads me each day in the heavenly way Lyrics: 1 I have given up all to my Savior so dear, And His praises I ever will sing; And though all of this world should forsake me while here, To my Savior I ever will cling. Refrain: He leads me each day in the heavenly way, So onward and upward I’ll climb; In the straight, narrow way, I’m determined to stay, Till I leave this old dark world behind. 2 I’ve received such great light, and its beams are so bright, That the past of my life’s way seems dim; I will walk in this light by day and by night, Still closer I’ll cling unto Him. Some think [Refrain] 3 I’ve done wrong by leaving the throng, Who abide in sectarian strife; But I’ve only come back where God’s people belong, From Babel I fled for my life. [Refrain] 4 I have a good home in the fold of my Lord, Where His sanctified children all dwell; I am glad that I heard the truth from His word, And now with my soul all is well. [Refrain] 5 Someday when my life and its labors are o’er, And my sheaves at His feet I lay down, I will meet all the saints on that beautiful shore, And receive a bright, glittering crown.

The Beautiful Land

Author: Frances Jane (Fanny) Crosby Meter: 12.9.12.9 D Appears in 8 hymnals First Line: We have heard of a land on whose blue, ether skies Lyrics: 1. We have heard of a land on whose blue, ether skies Not a cloud for a moment can stay; And it needs not the sun in his splendor to rise For the Lord is the light of its day; We have heard of that land, and its glory we seek, Where the faithful with Jesus shall dwell, Where the roses of youth never fade from the cheek, And the lips never murmur, Farewell.; 2. We have talked of that land, when our journey was long, And our hearts overburdened with care; We have talked of the blest at the river of song, And how oft we have sighed to be there; And our faith has gone up, like a bird on the wing, To that land on eternity’s shore, Where the joy bells of Eden forever shall ring, And the soul shall be weary no more. 3. We are nearing that land, we are nearing the gate, To the city of jasper and gold, Where the Savior to welcome His children doth wait, And will gather them into the fold; To the fold of His love, in the mansions above, Where forever with Him they shall dwell, And the eyes that were sad in His smile shall be glad, And the lips never murmur, Farewell.
