My soul, be on thy guard

Author: George Heath Hymnal: LHTC1918 #A272 (1917) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 My soul, be on thy guard; Ten thousand foes arise, The hosts of sin are pressing hard To draw thee from the skies. 2 O watch, and fight, and pray, The battle ne’er give o’er; Renew it boldly every day, And help divine implore. 3 Ne’er think the victory won, Nor lay thine armor down; Thine arduous work will not be done Till thou receive thy crown. 4 Fight on, my soul, till death Shall bring thee to thy God; He’ll take thee at thy parting breath, To His divine abode.

Jesus, Lover of my soul

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: LHTC1918 #A371 (1917) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Lover of my soul, Let me to Thy bosom fly, While the nearer waters roll, While the tempest still is high; Hide me, O my Saviour, hide, Till the storm of life is past; Safe into the haven guide, O receive my soul at last. 2 Other refuge have I none; Hangs my helpless soul on Thee; Leave, ah, leave me not alone; Still support and comfort me. All my trust on Thee is stayed, All my help from Thee I bring; Cover my defenceless head With the shadow of Thy wing. 3 Thou, O Christ, art all I want, More than all in Thee I find. Raise the fallen, cheer the faint, Heal the sick, and lead the blind. Just and holy is Thy Name, I am all unrighteousness; False and full of sin I am, Thou art full of truth and grace. 4 Plenteous grace with Thee is found, Grace to cover all my sin; Let the healing streams abound; Make and keep me pure within. Thou of life the Fountain art, Freely let me take of Thee; Spring Thou up within my heart, Rise to all eternity. Amen.

There's a wideness in God's mercy

Author: Frederick William Faber, 1814-1863 Hymnal: LHTC1918 #A256 (1917) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 There's a wideness in God's mercy, Like the wideness of the sea; There's a kindness in His justice, Which is more than liberty. There is no place where earth's sorrows Are more felt than up in heaven; There is no place where earth's failings Have such kindly judgment given. 2 For the love of God is broader Than the measure of man's mind And the heart of the Eternal Is most wonderfully kind. There is plentiful redemption In the Blood that has been shed; There is joy for all the members In the sorrows of the Head. 3 'Tis not all we owe to Jesus; It is something more than all; Greater good because of evil, Larger mercy through the fall. If our love were but more simple, We should take Him at His word; And our lives would be all sunshine In the sweetness of our Lord. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ARMSTRONG
