Never Alone

Author: Anonymous Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.8.7 Appears in 149 hymnals First Line: I've seen the lightning flashing Refrain First Line: No, never alone Lyrics: 1 I’ve seen the lightning flashing, And heard the thunder roll, I’ve felt sin’s breakers dashing, Trying to conquer my soul; I’ve heard the voice of Jesus Telling me still to fight on: He promised never to leave me, Never to leave me alone. Refrain: No, never alone, No, never alone - He promised never to leave me, Never to leave me alone; No, never alone, No, never alone - He promised never to leave me, Never to leave me alone. 2 The world’s fierce winds are blowing - Temptation’s sharp and keen; I have a peace in knowing My Savior stands between; He stands to shield me from danger When all my friends are gone: He promised never to leave me, Never to leave me alone. [Refrain] 3 When in affliction’s valley I tread the road of care, My Savior helps me to carry My cross so heavy to bear; Though all around me is darkness And earthly joys are flown, My Savior whispers His promise: Never to leave me alone. [Refrain] 4 He died on Calv'ry's mountain, For me they pierced His side, For me He opened that fountain, The crimson, cleansing tide; For me He’s waiting in glory, Upon His heavenly throne: He promised never to leave me, Never to leave me alone. [Refrain] Topics: Cross of the believer; Jesus Christ His Cross Scripture: John 14:18 Used With Tune: NEVER ALONE

Rejoice, All Ye Believers

Author: Laurentius Laurenti (1666-1722) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 333 hymnals First Line: Rejoice, all ye believers! Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, all ye believers! And let your lights appear; The evening is advancing, And darker night is near. The Bridegroom is arising, And soon He will draw nigh; Up! pray, and watch, and wrestle! At midnight comes the cry. 2 See that your lamps are burning; Replenish them with oil; And wait for your salvation, The end of earthly toil. The watchers on the mountain Proclaim the Bridegroom near, Go meet Him as He cometh, With Alleluias clear. 3 Ye saints, who here in patience Your cross and suff'rings bore, Shall live and reign forever, When sorrow is no more: Around the throne of glory The Lamb ye shall behold, In triumph cast before Him Your diadems of gold. 4 Our hope and expectation, O Jesus, now appear; Arise, Thou Sun so longed for, O'er this benighted sphere. With hearts and hands uplifted, We plead, O Lord, to see The day of earth's redemption That brings us unto Thee. Topics: Book One: Hymns, Songs, Chorales; Warning Message Expectation and Hope of Christ's Coming Scripture: Matthew 25:4 Used With Tune: NEVER ALONE

Author of "Never Alone" in African American Heritage Hymnal In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
