Seeking the Lost
Author: W. A. O. Appears in 146 hymnals Topics: Living His Life Winning Souls; Living His Life Winning Souls; Living His Life Winning Souls First Line: Seeking the lost, yes, kindly entreating Refrain First Line: Going afar, upon the mountain Lyrics: 1 Seeking the lost, yes, kindly entreating
Wanderers on the mountains astray,
"Come unto me," his message repeating,
Words of the Master speaking today.
Chorus:
Going afar, afar upon the mountain,
Bringing the wand'rers, the wand'rers back again,
Into the fold, the fold of my Redeemer
Jesus the Lamb, the Lamb for sinners slain.
2 Seeking the lost, and pointing to Jesus
Souls that are weak and hearts that are sore,
Leading them forth in ways of salvation,
Showing the path to life evermore. [Chorus]

Him would I follow day unto day;
Care for the dying, raise up the fallen,
Pointing the lost to Jesus the way. [Chorus]

Coming down from the Father above;
Sweep over my spirit forever, I pray,
In fathomless billows of love.

Buried deep in my innermost soul;
So secure that no power can mine it away,
While the years of eternity roll! [Chorus]

Resting sweetly in Jesus' control;
I am kept from all danger by night and by day,
And his glory is flooding my soul. [Chorus]

Where the Author of peace I shall see,
That one strain of the song which the ransomed will sing,
In that heavenly kingdom will be, [Chorus]

Passing down the rough pathway of time!
Make the Saviour your friend ere the shadows grow dark;
O accept of this peace so sublime. [Chorus] Used With Tune: [Far away in the depths of my spirit tonight]

Or climbing the mountain way steep,
Or walking the shadowy vale. [Chorus]

Thy Life Within Me
Author: F. R. Havergal Appears in 16 hymnals Topics: Living His Life Consecration; Living His Life Consecration First Line: Live out Thy life within me Lyrics: 1 Live out Thy life within me,
O Jesus, King of kings!
Be Thou Thyself the answer
To all my questionings;
Live out Thy life within me,
In all things have Thy way!
I, the transparent medium
Thy glory to display.
2 The temple has been yielded,
And purified of sin;
Let Thy Shekinah glory
Now shine forth from within,
And all the earth keep silence,
The body henceforth be
Thy silent, gentle servant,
Moved only as by Thee,
3 Its members ev'ry moment
Held subject to Thy call,
Ready to have Thee use them,
Or not be used at all;
Held without restless longing,
Or strain, or stress, or fret,
Or chafings at Thy dealings,
Or tho'ts of vain regret;
4 But restful, calm and pliant,
From bend and bias free,
Awaiting Thy decision,
When thou hast need of me.
Live out Thy life within me,
O Jesus, King of kings!
Be Thou the glorious answer
To all my questionings.

Hiding rock and treach'rous shoal;

Thou canst calm the ocean wild;
Boist'rous waves obey thy will
When thou say'st to them, "Be still!"
Wond'rous Sov'reign of the sea,
Jesus, Saviour, pilot me.
3 When at last I near the shore,
And the fearful breakers roar
'Tween me and the peaceful rest,
Then, while leaning on thy breast,
May I hear thee say to me,
"Fear not, I will pilot thee." Used With Tune: GOULD

To wrestlers with the troubled sea. Used With Tune: CANONBURY

Passion and envy, lust and pride;
While justice, temp'rance, truth, and love,
Our inward piety approve.

Safe in the Arms of Jesus

Borne in a song to me,
Over the fields of glory,
Over the jasper sea.

Safe in the arms of Jesus,
Safe on his gentle breast,
Here by his love o'ershaded,
Sweetly my soul doth rest.

Safe from corroding care;
Safe from the world's temptations,
Sin cannot harm me there.
Free from the blight of sorrow,
Free from my doubts and fears;
Only a few more trials,
Only a few more tears. [Refrain]
3 Jesus, my heart's dear refuge,
Jesus, has died for me;
Firm on the Rock of Ages,
Ever my trust shall be.
Here let me wait with patience,
Wait till the night is o'er;
Wait till I see the morning
Break on the golden shore. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Safe in the arms of Jesus]
