Nearer, My God, to Thee
Author: Sarah F. Adams Hymnal: TH41952 #242 (1960) Person Name: Sarah F. Adams Lyrics: 1 Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee!
E'en though it be a cross
That raiseth me;
Still all my song shall be,
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee!
2 Though like the wanderer,
The sun gone down,
Darkness be over me,
My rest a stone;
Yet in my dreams I'd be
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee!
3 There let the way appear,
Steps unto Heav'n;
All that Thou sendest me,
In mercy giv'n;
Angels to beckon me,
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee!
4 Then, with my waking tho'ts
Bright with Thy praise,
Out of my stony griefs
Bethel I'll raise;
So by my woes to be
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee!
5 Or if on joyful wing,
Cleaving the sky,
Sun, moon, and stars forgot,
Upwards I fly,
Still all my song shall be,
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee!

There Is a Green Hill Far Away
Author: Cecil F. Alexander Hymnal: TH41952 #241 (1960) Person Name: Cecil F. Alexander Refrain First Line: Oh, dearly, dearly has He loved Lyrics: 1 There is a green hill far away,
Without a city wall,
Where the dear Lord was crucified,
Who died to save us all.
Chorus:
Oh, dearly, dearly has He loved,
And we must love Him, too;
And trust in His redeeming blood,
And try His works to do.
2 We may not know, we cannot tell
What pains He had to bear;
But we believe it was for us
He hung and suffered there. [Chorus]
3 He died that we might be forgiv'n,
He died to make us good,
That we might go at last to Heav'n,
Saved by His precious blood. [Chorus]
4 There was no other good enough,
To pay the price of sin;
He only could unlock the gate
Of Heav'n and let us in.

Days of toil and hours of ease,
Still He calls, in cares and pleasures,
"Christian, love Me more than these."

Savior, may we hear Thy call,
Give our hearts to Thy obedience,
Serve and love Thee best of all. Topics: Consecration; Opening; Worship Languages: English Tune Title: [Jesus calls us' o'er the tumult]

Never Alone!
Author: Anon. Hymnal: TH41952 #68 (1960) Person Name: Anon. 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,
Which almost conquered my soul;
I’ve heard the voice of my Savior
Biding me still to fight on;
He promised never to leave me,
Never to leave me alone!
Chorus:
No, never alone,
No, never alone,
He promised never to leave me,
He'll claim me for His own.
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 my friends are all gone;
He promised never to leave me,
Never to leave me alone! [Chorus]
3 When in affliction’s valley
I tread the road of care,
My Savior helps me to carry
My cross so heavy to bear;
Tho' all around me is darkness,
Earthly joys all flown;
My Savior whispers His promise,
Never to leave me alone! [Chorus]
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 waiteth in glory,
Seated upon His throne;
He promised never to leave me,
Never to leave me alone! [Chorus]

Or will you scorn from His foes to fly,
Daring for Jesus to live or die?

Gladly obeying Thee!” will you say:

Peace! Be Still!
Author: Mary A. Baker Hymnal: TH41952 #339 (1960) Person Name: Mary A. Baker First Line: Master, the tempest is raging! Refrain First Line: The winds and the waves obey My will Lyrics: 1 Master, the tempest is raging!
The billows are tossing high!
The sky is o'ershadowed with blackness,
No shelter or help is nigh;
"Carest Thou not that we perish?"
How canst Thou lie asleep,
When each moment so madly is threat'ning
A grave in the angry deep?
Chorus:
"The winds and the waves shall obey My will,
Peace, be still!
Whether the wrath of the storm-tossed sea,
Or demons, or men, or whatever it be,
No water can swallow the ship where lies
The Master of ocean and earth and skies;
They all shall sweetly obey My will,
Peace, be still! Peace, be still!
They all shall sweetly obey My will,
Peace, peace, be still!"
2 Master, with anguish of spirit
I bow in my grief to-day;
The depths of my sad heart are troubled;
O waken and save, I pray!
Torrents of sin and of anguish
Sweep o’er my sinking soul!
And I perish! I perish, dear Master;
O hasten, and take control! [Chorus]
3 Master, the terror is over,
The elements sweetly rest;
Earth’s sun in the calm lake is mirrored,
And heaven’s within my breast.
Linger, O blessed Redeemer,
Leave me alone no more;
And with joy I shall make the blest harbor,
And rest on the blissful shore. [Chorus]

Jesus, the Very Thought of Thee

And in Thy presence rest.

Nor can the memory find
A sweeter sound than Thy blest name,

O joy of all the meek,
To those who fall, how kind Thou art!
How good to those who seek!
4 But what to those who find? Ah! this
Nor tongue nor pen can show,
The love of Jesus--what it is
None but His loved ones know.
