Will You Go?

Author: Anon. Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.8.8.6 Appears in 254 hymnals First Line: We're marching on to heav'n above Lyrics: 1 We’re marching on to heav’n above, Will you go? Will you go? To sing the Saviour’s dying love— Will you go? Will you go? Millions have reach'd that blissful shore, Their trials and their labours o'er, And yet there's room for millions more— Will you go? Will you go? 2 The way to heav'n is strait, but plain, Will you come? Will you come? Repent, believe, be born again, Will you come? Will you come? Christ offers pardon free to all, Who will accept His loving call, And at His feet repentant fall— Will you come? Will you come? 3 How blessed 'tis to serve Him here! Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord! Redeem'd from ev'ry doubt and fear, Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord! Tho' tribulation cross our way, Affliction or adversity, Yet Jesus saves us ev'ry day, Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord! 4 And when our day of fighting's o'er; Home at last! Home at last! We'll praise Him on the other shore, Home at last! Home at last! We'll join again in songs of praise With those who see the Master's face, And ever sing redeeming grace— Home at last! Home at last! Topics: The Gospel Used With Tune: BETTER WORLD

Pray what’s the order of the day? What’s the news? what’s the news? O! I have got good news to tell! My Savior hath done all things well, And triumphed over death and hell— That’s the news! that’s the news! 2. The Lamb was slain on Calvary! That’s the news! that’s the news! To set a world of sinners free, That’s the news! that’s the news! ’Twas there His precious blood was shed, ’Twas there He bowed His sacred head, But now He’s risen from the dead, That’s the news! that’s the news! 3. His work’s reviving all around, That’s the news! that’s the news! And many have redemption found— That’s the news! that’s the news! And since their souls have caught the flame, They shout hosanna to His name, And all around they spread His fame— That’s the news! that’s the news! 4. The Lord has pardoned all my sin— That’s the news! that’s the news! I feel the witness now within— That’s the news! that’s the news! And since He took my sins away, And taught me how to watch and pray, I’m happy now from day to day— That’s the news! that’s the news! 5. And Christ the Lord can save you now— That’s the news! that’s the news! Your sinful heart He can renew— That’s the news! that’s the news! This moment, if for sins you grieve, This moment, if you do believe, A full acquittal you’ll receive— That’s the news! that’s the news! 6. And now if any one should say, What’s the news! what’s the news? O tell them you’ve begun to pray— That’s the news! that’s the news! That you have joined the conquering band, And now, with joy, at God’s command, You’re marching to the better land— That’s the news! that’s the news! Used With Tune: NEWS

Why This Doleful Wail?

Author: Emma F. R. Campbell Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.8.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Why this doleful wail of sadness Lyrics: 1 Why this doleful wail of sadness, Every year, every year? Undertoning all our gladness, Every year, every year? Why at fleeting years so fretful, Of the dead past so regretful, Of the living now forgetful, Every year, every year? 2 Is not God in wisdom guiding Every year, every year? Though to us His purpose hiding, Every year, every year? Joy there is for every sorrow, For each night a bright tomorrow, From the past fresh strength we borrow, Every year, every year! 3 Faith and hope are growing stronger, Every year, every year. As the trodden way grows longer, Every year, every year. Left behind the paths most dreary, Passed the doubts that vex and weary, Brighter gleams the sunshine cheery, Every year, every year! 4 Fewer cares and lighter burdens, Every year, every year. Brighter hopes and truer guerdons, Every year, every year. Earthly joys may fade forever, Earthly ties to friends may sever, One there is more dear than ever, Every year, every year! 5 And the Father’s house is dearer, Every year, every year. And our lost ones coming nearer, Every year, every year. Less is there below to charm us, Less in growing old to harm us, Less do unknown days alarm us Every year, every year! 6 Let us cease then our repining, Every year, every year. And believe the Love o’ershining, Every year, every year. Nights behind us now forgetting, Onward press without regretting, To the morn that knows no setting, Blest New Year! Blest New Year!
