ALL FOR JESUS!

Author: Mary D. James Hymnal: G21873 #5 (1873) First Line: All for Jesus! all for Jesus! Lyrics: 1. All for Jesus! all for Jesus! All my being's ransom'd pow'rs; All my thoughts and words and doings, All my days and all my hours. All for Jesus! all for Jesus! All my days and all my hours. All for Jesus! all for Jesus! All my days and all my hours. 2. Let my hands perform his bidding; Let my feet run in his ways; Let my eyes see Jesus only; Let my lips speak forth his praise. All for Jesus! all for Jesus! Let my lips speak forth his praise. All for Jesus! all for Jesus! Let my lips speak forth his praise. 3. Worldlings prize their gems of beauty, Cling to gilded toys of dust, Boast of wealth, and fame, and pleasure; Only Jesus will I trust. Only Jesus! only Jesus! Only Jesus will I trust. Only Jesus! only Jesus! Only Jesus will I trust. 4. Since my eyes were fixed on Jesus, I've lost sight of all beside,— So enchained my spirit's vision, Looking at the crucified. All for Jesus! all for Jesus! All for Jesus, crucified! All for Jesus! all for Jesus! All for Jesus, crucified! 5. Oh, what wonder! how amazing! Jesus, glorious King of kings, Deigns to call me his beloved, Lets me rest beneath his wings. All for Jesus! all for Jesus! Resting now beneath his wings. All for Jesus! all for Jesus! Resting now beneath his wings. Languages: English Tune Title: [All for Jesus! all for Jesus!]

INFINITE GRACE

Hymnal: G21873 #7 (1873) First Line: And can it be that I should gain Lyrics: 1. And can it be that I should gain An int'rest in the Saviour's blood? Died he for me, who caus'd his pain? For me who him to death pursued? Amazing love! how can it be, That thou, my Lord, shouldst die for me? Amazing love! how can it be, That thou, my Lord, shouldst die for me? 2. 'Tis mist'ry all, th' Immortal dies! Who can explore his strange design? In vain the first-born seraph tries To sound the depths of love divine; 'Tis mercy all! let earth adore: Let angel minds inquire no more. 3. He left his Father's throne above; (So free, so infinite his grace!) Emptied himself of all but love, And bled for Adam's helpless race; 'Tis mercy all, immense and free, For, O my God, it found out me! 4. Long my imprisoned spirit lay Fast bound in sin and nature's night: Thine eye diffused a quick'ning ray; I woke: the dungeon flam'd with light; My chains fell off, my heart was free-- I rose, went forth, and followed thee. 5. No condemnation now I dread; Jesus, with all in him, is mine; Alive in Him my living Head, And clothed in righteousness divine, Bold I approach th' eternal throne And claim the crown, thro' Christ my own.

As a mother stills her child, Thou canst hush the ocean wild; Boist'rous waves obey thy will When thou say'st to them, "Be still," Wond'rous Sovereign of the sea, Jesus, Saviour, pilot me. 6. When at last I near the shore, And the fearful breakers roar,-- Thou canst calm my anxious breast, And conduct me to my rest. Then, dear Saviour, pilot me Over Death's tempestuous sea.

What tho' my joys and comforts die? The Lord my Saviour liveth; What tho' the darkness gather round? Songs in the night he giveth; No storm can shake my inmost calm, While to that refuge clinging; Since Christ is Lord of heaven and earth, How can I keep from singing? 3. I lift my eyes, the cloud grows thin; I see the blue above it; And day by day this path way smooths, Since first I learned to love it; The peace of Christ makes fresh my heart, A fountain ever springing; All things are mine since I am his-- How can I keep from singing?
