314 O Little Town Of Bethlehem

O Little Town Of Bethlehem
From Blue book - Melodies of Praise
page 314

O little town of Bethlehem, How still we see thee lie; Above thy deep and dreamless sleep The silent stars go by: Yet in thy dark streets shineth The everlasting Light; The hopes and fears of all the years Are met in thee tonight.c

For Christ is born of Mary; And gathered all above, While mortals sleep, the angels keep their watch of wond'ring love. O morning stars, together Proclaim the holy birth; And praises sing to God the KIng, and peace to men on earth.

How silently, how silently, The wondrous gift is giv'n! So God imparts to human hearts the blessings of His heav'n. No ear may hear His coming, But in this world of sin, Where meek souls will receive Him still, The dear Christ enters in.

O holy Child of Bethlehem, Descend on us, we pray; Cast out our sin and enter in, Be born in us today. We hear the Christmas angels The great glad tidings tell; O come to us, abide with us, Our Lord Emmanuel. A-men.

Silent Night! Holy Night! All is dark, save the light Yonder, where they sweet vigils keep, O'er the Babe who in silent sleep Rests in heavenly peace, Rests in heavenly peace.

Hark! the herald angels sing, "Glory to the newborn King; Peace on earth and mercy mild; God and sinners reconciled." Joyful, all ye nations, rise, Join the triumph of the skies; With angelic hosts proclaim, "Christ is born in Bethlehem."

!Hark! the herald angels sing, "Glory to the newborn King." Amen.

Hark! the herald angels sing, "Glory to the newborn King." Amen.

Hail the heav'n-born Prince of Peace, Hail the Sun of righteousness! Light and life to all he brings, Ris'n with healing in His wings: Mild He lays His glory by, Born that man no more may die; Born to raise the sons of earth, Born to give them second birth.

Hark! the herald angels sing, "Glory to the newborn King." Amen.

Come, Desire of nations, come! Fix in us thy humble home: Rise, the woman's conqu'ring seed, Bruise in us the serpent's head; Adam's likeness now efface, Stamp thine image in its place: Second Adam from above, Reinstate us in Thy love.

Hark! the herald angels sing, "Glory to the newborn King." Amen.

page 309

In the lands beyond the sea Countless million children be Who have never heard the gospel story told: Little ones for whom the Christ Died and bo't them with a price, Waiting to be gathered in the Savior's fold.

Jesus loves the little children, All the children are His care; Red and yellow, black and white, they are precious in his sight; Jesus loves the little children ev'ry-where.

Ev'ry-where we hear their cry, "Come and save us or we die:" Who will haste to these the blessed news to tell? They are precious to the King; Let us go these lambs to bring To the gracious arms of Him we love so well.

Jesus loves the little children, All the children are His care; Red and yellow, black and white, they are precious in his sight; Jesus loves the little children ev'ry-where.

From the east and from the west See them thronging to be blest, Precious jewels to adorn His diadem. If we thus obey the Lord We shall reap a sure reward When he comes again to gather us and them.

Jesus loves the little children, All the children are His care; Red and yellow, black and white, they are precious in his sight; Jesus loves the little children ev'ry-where.

308 Where Could I Go?

Where Could I Go?
From Blue book - Melodies of Praise
page 308

Living below in this old sinful world, Hardly a comfort can afford; Striving alone to face temptations sore, Where could I go but to the Lord?

Where could I go, O where could I go; Seeking a refuge for my soul? Needing a friend to help me in the end, Where could I go but to the Lord?

Neighbors are kind, I love them ev'ry one, We get along in sweet accord; But when my soul needs manna from above, Where could I go but to the Lord?

Where could I go, O where could I go; Seeking a refuge for my soul? Needing a friend to help me in the end, Where could I go but to the Lord?

Life here is grand with friends I love so dear, Comfort I get from God's own word; Yet when I face the chilling hand of death, Where could I go but to the Lord?

Where could I go, O where could I go; Seeking a refuge for my soul? Needing a friend to help me in the end, Where could I go but to the Lord?

Jesus, Lover of My Soul
From Blue book - Melodies of Praise
page 307

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 Savior, hide, Till the storm of life is past; Safe into the haven guide, O receive my soul at last!

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 defenseless head With the shadow of Thy wing.

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.

There's a land beyond the river, That we call the sweet forever, And we only reach that shore by faith's decree; One by one we'll gain the portals, There to dwell with the immortals, When they ring the golden bells for you and me.

Don't you hear the bells now ringing? Don't you hear the angels singing? 'Tis the glory hallelujah Jubilee. In that far-off sweet forever, Just beyond the shining river, When they ring the golden bells for you and me.

We shall know no sin nor sorrow, In that haven of tomorrow, When our barque shall sail beyond the silver sea; We shall only know the blessing Of our Father's sweet caressing, When they ring the golden bells for you and me.

Don't you hear the bells now ringing? Don't you hear the angels singing? 'Tis the glory hallelujah Jubilee. In that far-off sweet forever, Just beyond the shining river, When they ring the golden bells for you and me.

When our days shall know their number, When in death we sweetly slumber, When the King commands the spirit to be free; Nevermore with anguish laden, We shall reach that lovely Aiden, When they ring the golden bells for you and me.

Don't you hear the bells now ringing? Don't you hear the angels singing? 'Tis the glory hallelujah Jubilee. In that far-off sweet forever, Just beyond the shining river, When they ring the golden bells for you and me.

Sweet Hour of Prayer
From Blue book - Melodies of Praise
page 304

Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer, that calls me from a world of care, And bids me at my Father's throne Make all my wants and wishes known; In season's of distress and grief, My soul has often found relief, And oft escaped the tempter's snare, By thy return, sweet hour of prayer.

Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer, Thy wings shall my petition bear, To Him whose truth and faithfulness Engage the waiting soul to bless; And since He bids me seek His face, Believe His word and trust His grace, I'll cast on Him my ev'ry care, and wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer.

Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer, May I thy consolation share, Till, from Mount Pisgah's lofty height, I view my home, and take my flight: This robe of flesh I'll drop, and rise To seize the everlasting prize; And shout, while passing thro' the air, Farewell, farewell, sweet hour of prayer!

From Blue book - Melodies of Praise

Blest be the tie that binds our hearts in Christian love; The fellowship of kindred minds Is like to that above.

Before our Father's throne We pour our ardent prayers; Our fears, our hopes, our aims are one, Our comforts and our cares.

We share our mutual woes, Our mutual burdens bear; And often for each other flows The sympathizing tear.

When we asunder part It gives us inward pain; But we shall still be joined in heart, And hope to meet again

Follow Me
From Blue book - Melodies of Praise
page 301

I traveled down a lonely road And no one seemed to care, The burden on my weary back Had bowed me to despair, I oft complained to Jesus How folks were treating me, And then I heard Him say so tenderly, " My feet were also weary, Upon the Calv'ry road; The cross became so heavy, I fell beneath the load, Be faithful weary pilgrim The morning I can see, Just lift your cross and follow close to me.

"I work so hard for Jesus" I often boast and say, "I've sacrificed a lot of things to walk the narrow way, I gave up fame and fortune; I'm worth a lot to Thee," And then I hear Him gently say to me, "I left the throne of glory And counted it but loss, My hands were nailed in anger Upon a cruel cross, But now we'll make the journey With your hand safe in mine, So lift your cross and follow close to me.

Oh, Jesus if I die upon a foreign field some day,' Twould be no more than love demands No less could I repay, "No greater love hath mortal man Than for a friend to die" These are the words He gently spoke to me, "If just a cup of water I place within your hand Then just a cup of water Is all that I demand, But if by death to living They can thy glory see, I'll take my cross and follow close to thee.

Victory in Jesus
From Blue book - Melodies of Praise
page 294

I heard an old, old story, How a Savior came from glory, How He gave His life on Calvary To save a wretch like me; I heard about His groaning, Of His precious blood's atoning, Then I repented of my sins And won the victory.

 

O victory in Jesus, My Savior, forever, He sought me and bo't me With His redeeming blood; He loved me ere I knew Him And all my love is due Him, He plunged me to victory, Beneath the cleansing flood.

 

I heard about His healing, Of His cleansing pow'r revealing, How he made the lame to walk again And caused the blind to see; And then I cried "dear Jesus, Come and heal my broken spirit," And somehow Jesus came and bro't To me the victory.

 

O victory in Jesus, My Savior, forever, He sought me and bo't me With His redeeming blood; He loved me ere I knew Him And all my love is due Him, He plunged me to victory, Beneath the cleansing flood.

 

I heard about a mansion He has built for me in glory, And I heard about the streets of gold Beyond the crystal sea; About the angels singing, And the old redemption story, And some sweet day I'll sing up there The song of victory. 

 

O victory in Jesus, My Savior, forever, He sought me and bo't me With His redeeming blood; He loved me ere I knew Him And all my love is due Him, He plunged me to victory, Beneath the cleansing flood.

We Are Well Able
From Blue book - Melodies of Praise
page 292

"Twas the Lord of hosts that led us out of Egypt's sand; And He led us through the Red Sea by His mighty hand, Never halting in the wilderness, but His command Gave assurance we were able to possess the land.

We are able to go up and take the country, And possess the land from Jordan to the sea; And, tho' giants tall be there our way to hinder, God will surely give the victory.

When the spies brought back the message, this is what they said; " Against giants and walled cities, we cannot be led;" But a Caleb and a Joshua said, They'll be as bread; We are able to go up possess the land ahead.

We are able to go up and take the country, And possess the land from Jordan to the sea; And, tho' giants tall be there our way to hinder, God will surely give the victory.

When we crossed the river Jordan, in the land we found; Wine and oil, and milk and honey, richest fruits abound; Sparkling fountains, and the showers come upon the ground; We were able, Hallelujah! let God's praise resound.

We are able to go up and take the country, And possess the land from Jordan to the sea; And, tho' giants tall be there our way to hinder, God will surely give the victory.

There's no thirsting for old Egypt, since we're in this way, And we care not what the critics or the ten spies say; For the land abounds in plenty, and we're here to stay, Wont you come and join us, brother, enter in today?

We are able to go up and take the country, And possess the land from Jordan to the sea; And, tho' giants tall be there our way to hinder, God will surely give the victory.

page 290

Oh how sweet the glorious message, Simple faith may claim; Yesterday, today, forever, Jesus is the same. Still He loves to save the sinful, Heal the sick and lame; Cheer the mourner, still the tempest; Glory to His name!

Yesterday, today, forever, Jesus is the same. All may change, but Jesus never! Glory to His name, Glory
to His name; All may change, but Jesus never! Glory to His name.

He who was the friend of sinners, Seeks thee, lost one, now; Sinner, come, and at His footstool Penitently bow. He who said, "I'll not condemn thee, Go and sin no more;" Speaks to thee that word of pardon, As in days of yore.

Yesterday, today, forever, Jesus is the same. All may change, but Jesus never! Glory to His name, Glory
to His name; All may change, but Jesus never! Glory to His name.

Oft on earth He healed the suff'rer By His mighty hand; Still our sicknesses and sorrows Go at His command. He who gave His healing virtue To a woman's touch; To the faith that claims His fullness, Still will give as much.

Yesterday, today, forever, Jesus is the same. All may change, but Jesus never! Glory to His name, Glory
to His name; All may change, but Jesus never! Glory to His name.

As of old He walked to Emmaus, With them to abide; So through all life's way He walketh, Ever near our side Soon again we shall behold Him, Hasten, Lord, the day! But 'twill still be "this same Jesus," As He went away.

Yesterday, today, forever, Jesus is the same. All may change, but Jesus never! Glory to His name, Glory
to His name; All may change, but Jesus never! Glory to His name.

Stand up, stand up for Jesus, Ye soldiers of the cross, Lift high His royal banner, It must not suffer loss. From vict'ry unto vict'ry, His army shall He lead, Till ev'ry foe is vanquished And Christ is Lord indeed.

Stand up, stand up for Jesus, The trumpet call obey; Forth to the mighty conflict, In this His glorious day. "Ye that are men now serve Him," Against unnumbered foes; Let courage rise with danger, And strength to strength oppose.

Stand up, stand up for Jesus-Stand in His strength alone; The arm of flesh will fail you---Ye dare not trust your own; Put on the gospel armor, And, watching unto prayer, When duty calls, or danger, Be never wanting there.

The Old Account Settled
From Blue book - Melodies of Praise
page 288

There was a time on earth, When in the book of heav'n An old account was standing For sins yet unforgiv'n; My name was at the top, And many things below, I went unto the keeper, And settled long ago.

Long ago, Long ago, Yes, the old account was settled long ago; And the record's clear today, For He washed my sins away, When the old account was settled long ago.

The old account was large, And growing ev'ry day, For I was always sinning, And never tried to pay; But when I looked ahead, And saw such pain and woe, I said that I would settle, I settled long ago.

Long ago, Long ago, Yes, the old account was settled long ago; And the record's clear today, For He washed my sins away, When the old account was settled long ago.

When at the judgment bar, I stand before my King, And He the book will open, He cannot find a thing; Then will my heart be glad, While tears of joy will flow Because I had it settled, And settled long ago.

Long ago, Long ago, Yes, the old account was settled long ago; And the record's clear today, For He washed my sins away, When the old account was settled long ago.

When in that happy home, My Savior's home above, I'll sing redemption's story, And praise Him for His love; I'll not forget that book, With pages white as snow, Because I came and settled, And settled long ago.

Long ago, Long ago, Yes, the old account was settled long ago; And the record's clear today, For He washed my sins away, When the old account was settled long ago.

O sinner, seek the Lord, Repent of all your sin, For thus He hath commanded, If you would enter in; And then if you should live A hundred years below, Up there you'll not regret it, You settled long ago.

Long ago, Long ago, Yes, the old account was settled long ago; And the record's clear today, For He washed my sins away, When the old account was settled long ago.

The Great Physician
From Blue book - Melodies of Praise
page 286

The great Physician now is near, The sympathizing Jesus; He speaks the drooping heart to cheer, Oh, hear the voice of Jesus.

 

Sweetest note in seraph song, Sweetest name on mortal tongue; Sweetest carol ever sung, Jesus, blessed Jesus. 

 

Your many sins are all forgiv'n, Oh, hear the voice of Jesus; Go on your way in peace to heav'n And wear a crown with Jesus.

 

Sweetest note in seraph song, Sweetest name on mortal tongue; Sweetest carol ever sung, Jesus, blessed Jesus. 

 

All glory to the dying Lamb! I now believe in Jesus; I love the blessed Savior's name, I love the name of Jesus.

 

Sweetest note in seraph song, Sweetest name on mortal tongue; Sweetest carol ever sung, Jesus, blessed Jesus. 

 

And when to that bright world above We rise to be with Jesus, We'll sing around the throne of love, His name, the name of Jesus.

 

Sweetest note in seraph song, Sweetest name on mortal tongue; Sweetest carol ever sung, Jesus, blessed Jesus.

285 When I Survey the Wondrous Cross

When I Survey the Wondrous Cross
From Blue book - Melodies of Praise
page 285

When I survey the wondrous cross, On which the Prince of glory died, My richest gain I count but loss, And pour contempt on all my pride.

 

Forbid it Lord, that I should boast, Save in the death of Christ, my God; All the vain things that charm me most, I sacrifice them to His blood.  

 

See, from His head, His hands, His feet, Sorrow and love flow mingled down; Did e'er such love and sorrow meet, Or thorns compose so rich a crown?  , 

 

Were the whole realm of nature mine, That were a present far too small; Love so amazing, so divine, Demands my soul, my life, my all.

Lord I care not for riches, Neither silver nor gold; I would make sure of heaven, I would enter the fold. In the book of Thy kingdom, With its pages so fair, Tell me Jesus, my Saviour, Is my name written there? 

 

Is my name written there, On the page white and fair? In the book of Thy kingdom, Is my name written there?

 

Lord, my sins they are many, Like the sands of the sea, But Thy blood, O my Saviour, Is sufficient for me; For thy promise is written, In bright letters that glow, "Tho' your sins be as scarlet, I will make them like snow."

 

Is my name written there, On the page white and fair? In the book of Thy kingdom, Is my name written there?  

 

Oh! that beautiful city, With its mansions of light, With its glorified beings, In pure garments of white; Where no evil thing cometh To despoil what is fair; Where the angels are watching, Yes, my name's written there.

 

Is my name written there, On the page white and fair? In the book of Thy kingdom, Is my name written there?

95 Since Jesus Came Into My Heart

Since Jesus Came Into My Heart
From Blue book - Melodies of Praise
page 95

What a wonderful change in my life has been wrought, Since Jesus came into my heart;  I have light in my soul for which long I had sought, Since Jesus came into my heart.

Since Jesus came into my heart, Since Jesus came into my heart;  Floods of joy o'er my soul like the sea billow roll, Since Jesus came into my heart.

I have ceased from my wand 'ring and going a stray, Since Jesus came into my heart;  And my sins which were many are all washed away, Since Jesus came into my heart.

Since Jesus came into my heart, Since Jesus came into my heart;  Floods of joy o'er my soul like the sea billow roll, Since Jesus came into my heart.

I'm possessed of a hope that is steadfast and sure, Since Jesus came into my heart;  And no dark clouds of doubt now my pathway obscure, Since Jesus came into my heart.

Since Jesus came into my heart, Since Jesus came into my heart;  Floods of joy o'er my soul like the sea billow roll, Since Jesus came into my heart.

There's a light in the valley of death now for me, Since Jesus came into my heart; And the gates of the city beyond I can see, Since Jesus came into my heart.

Since Jesus came into my heart, Since Jesus came into my heart; Floods of joy o'er my soul like the sea billow roll, Since Jesus came into my heart.

I shall go there to dwell in that city I know, Since Jesus came into my heart;  And I'm happy, so happy, as onward I go, Since Jesus came into my heart.

Since Jesus came into my heart, Since Jesus came into my heart;  Floods of joy o'er my soul like the sea billow roll, Since Jesus came into my heart.

Then forward still, 'tis Jehovah's will, Tho' the billows dash and spray, With a conq'ring tread we will push ahead He'll roll the sea away.

Before me was a sea of sin, So great I feared to pray; My heart's dsire the Savior read, And rolled the sea away.

Then forward still, 'tis Jehovah's will, Tho' the billows dash and spray, With a conq'ring tread we will push ahead He'll roll the sea away.

When sorrows dark, like stormy waves, Were dashing o'er my way; Again the Lord in mercy came, And rolled the sea away.

Then forward still, 'tis Jehovah's will, Tho' the billows dash and spray, With a conq'ring tread we will push ahead He'll roll the sea away.

And when I reach the sea of death, For needed grace I'll pray; I know the Lord will quickly come, And roll the sea away.

Then forward still, 'tis Jehovah's will, Tho' the billows dash and spray, With a conq'ring tread we will push ahead He'll roll the sea away.

See if there be some wicked way in me: Cleanse me from ev'ry sin and set me free.

 

 I praise Thee, Lord, for cleansing me from sin: Fulfill Thy Word and make me pure within;

Fill me with fire, where once I burned wih shame: Grant my desire to magnify Thy name. 

 

Lord, take my life, and make it wholly Thine: Fill my poor heart with Thy great love devine;

Take all my will, my passion, self and pride; I now surrender: Lord, in me abide.

 

O Holy Ghost, revival comes from Thee: Send a revival all start the work in me:

Thy Word declares Thou wilt supply our need: For blessing now, O Lord, I humbly plead.

I was once a sinner, but I came Pardon to receive from my Lord:

This was freely given and I found That He always kept His word.

 

There's a new name written down in glory, And it's mine, O yes, it's mine!

And the white-robed angels sing the story, A sinner has come home.

For there's a new name written down in glory, And it's mine, O yes, it's mine!

With my sins forgiven I am bound for heaven, Never more to roam.

 

I was humbly kneeling at the cross, Fearing naught but God's angry frown;

When the heavens opened and I saw That my name was written down.

 

There's a new name written down in glory, And it's mine, O yes, it's mine!

And the white-robed angels sing the story, A sinner has come home.

For there's a new name written down in glory, And it's mine, O yes, it's mine!

With my sins forgiven I am bound for heaven, Never more to roam.

 

In the Book 'tis written, Saved by Grace, O the joy that came to my soul!

Now I am forgiven and I know By the blood I am made whole.

 

There's a new name written down in glory, And it's mine, O yes, it's mine!

And the white-robed angels sing the story, A sinner has come home.

For there's a new name written down in glory, And it's mine, O yes, it's mine!

With my sins forgiven I am bound for heaven, Never more to roam.

To receive us to mansions overthere,

Yet we know 'twill not be long before

He takes His loved ones home,

And we're caught up to meet Him in the air.

 

We'll be caught up to meet Him in the air,

We'll be caught up His blessedness to share;

Very soon He will come To take his people home

Caught up to meet Him in the air.

 

There are times when we are called to wade thro' waters deep and wide,

And the sorrows of Christ Himself to share;

We remember He has promised to be ever at our side,

Till we're caught up to meet Himin the air.

 

We'll be caught up to meet Him in the air,

We'll be caught up His blessedness to share;

Very soon He will come To take his people home

Caught up to meet Him in the air.

 

Then eternal years in glory with our Savior we will spend;

O we long for that morning bright and fair!

When the days of our sojourning and our pilbrimage shall end,

We'll be caught up to meet Him in the air.

 

We'll be caught up to meet Him in the air,

We'll be caught up His blessedness to share;

Very soon He will come To take his people home

Caught up to meet Him in the air.

And our sins, which were scarlet are cleans'd

For His blood washes whiter than snow.

For He spoke and sea was still.

All the halt and blind were made whole:

Evil spirits obyed His great will.

 Isn't He wonderful, wonderful, wonderful,

Eyes not seen, ears not heard,

When He left He the comforter gave,

Ev'ry promise He made is true.

And the pow'r that was His may be ours.

Greater works than all these shall ye do.

 

 Isn't He wonderful, wonderful, wonderful,

 Isn't He wonderful, wonderful, wonderful,

What's recorded in God's Word,

O, what wisdom and love sublime.

That we all may be one, let us pray.

One in spirit redeeming the time.

 

 Isn't He wonderful, wonderful, wonderful,

 Isn't He wonderful, wonderful, wonderful,

Though all the world forsake me, and Satan tempts me sore, Through Jesus I shall safely reach the goal;

He will never, never leave me, nor yet forsake me here, While I live by faith and do His blessed will; A wall of fire about me, I've nothing now to fear, With his manna He my hungry soul shall fill. Then sweeping up to glory, to see His blessed face, Where rivers of delight shall ever roll!

I shall not be, I shall not be moved; I shall not be, I shall not be moved; Just like a tree that's planted by the waters, Lord, I shall not be moved.

197 Never Alone

Never Alone
From Blue book - Melodies of Praise
page 197

I've seen the light'ning flashing, And heard the thunder roll; I've felt sin's breakers dashing, Trying to conquer my soul; I've heard the voice of my Savior, Telling me still to fight on; 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; No, never alone! No, never alone! He promised never to leave me, Never to leave me alone. 

 

The world's fierce winds are blowing Temptations sharp and keen; I feel a peace in knowing My Savior stands between; He stands to shield me from danger, When earthly friends are gone; 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; No, never alone! No, never alone! He promised never to leave me, Never to leave me alone. 

 

When in affliction's valley I'm treading the road of care; My Savior helps me to carry My cross when heavy to bear; My feet, entangled with briars Ready to cast me down, My Savior whispers His promise, "I never will leave thee alone." 

 

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. 

 

He died for me on the mountain, For me they pierced His side; For me He opened the fountain, The crimson, cleansing tide; For me He's waiting in glory, Seated upon His throne; 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; No, never alone! No, never alone! He promised never to leave me, Never to leave me alone.

When Jesus Returns for His Own
From Blue book - Melodies of Praise

There's coming a wonderful, wonderful day, Its glory has never been known; When free from our burdens we're going away, As Jesus returns for His own. 

 

When Jesus returns for His own, And carries us up to His throne; There'll be no more sadness, But all will be gladness, When Jesus returns for His own.

 

Then those who have suffered and toiled for His name, Tho' hated, rejected, unknown, No longer shall suffer the world's scorn and shame, When Jesus returns for His own.

 

When Jesus returns for His own, And carries us up to His throne; There'll be no more sadness, But all will be gladness, When Jesus returns for His own.

 

Triumphant they'll rise with their Lord in the air, And sit with Him soon on His throne, While those who once ridiculed weep in despair, When Jesus returns for His own.

 

When Jesus returns for His own, And carries us up to His throne; There'll be no more sadness, But all will be gladness, When Jesus returns for His own.

 

No longer we'll think of the trials down here, The days when we suffered alone, For God's loving hand wipes away ev'ry tear, When Jesus returns for His own.

 

When Jesus returns for His own, And carries us up to His throne; There'll be no more sadness, But all will be gladness, When Jesus returns for His own.

 

Then let us be faithful e'en down unto death, Nor ever our troubles bemoan, But render Him praise and rejoice full of faith, That we may be counted His own.

 

When Jesus returns for His own, And carries us up to His throne; There'll be no more sadness, But all will be gladness, When Jesus returns for His own.

There is a fountain filled with blood drawn from Immanuel's veins; and sinners plunged beneath that flood, Lose all their guilty stains, Lose all their guilty stains,Lose all their guilty stains;  And sinners, plunged beneath that flood, Lose all their guilty stains.

The dying thief rejoiced to see That fountain in his day;  And there may I, though vile as he, Wash all my sins away, Wash all my sins away, Wash all my sins away, And there may I, though vile as he, Wash all my sins away.

Thou dying Lamb, thy precious blood Shall never lose its pow'r, Till all the ransomed church of God Are saved, to sin no more, Are saved, to sin no more, Are saved, to sin no more, Till all the ransomed church of God Are saved, to sin no more.

For since by faith I saw the stream Thy flowing wounds supply, Redeeming love has been my theme, And shall be till I die, And shall be till I die, And shall be till I die;  Redeeming love has been my theme, And shall be till I die.

Then in a nobler, sweeter song, I'll sing The pow'rto save, When this poor lisping, stammring tongue Lies silent in the grave.  Lies silent in the grave,Lies silent in the grave;  When this poor lisping, stamm'ringtongue Lies silent in the grave.

I've anchored my soul in the Haven of Rest, I'll sail the wide seas no more; The Tempest May sweep o'er the wild stormy deep;  In Jesus I'm safe evermore.

I yielded myself to his tinder embrace, and faith taking hold of the word, my Fetters fell off, and I encounter my soul; The Haven of Rest is my Lord.

I've anchored my soul in the Haven of Rest, I'll sail the wide seas no more; The Tempest May sweep o'er the wild stormy deep;  In Jesus I'm safe evermore.

The song of My Soul, since the Lord made me whole, has been the old story so blest, of Jesus who will save whosoever will have a home in the Haven of Rest.

I've anchored my soul in the Haven of Rest, I'll sail the wide seas no more; The Tempest May sweep o'er the wild stormy deep;  In Jesus I'm safe evermore.

How precious the tho't that we all my recline, Like John the beloved and blest, On Jesus' strong arm, where no tempest can harm, Secure in the Haven of Rest.

I've anchored my soul in the Haven of Rest, I'll sail the wide seas no more; The Tempest May sweep o'er the wild stormy deep;  In Jesus I'm safe evermore.

O come to the Savior, He patiently waits To save by His power divine;  Come, anchor your soul in the Haven of Rest, And say, "My Beloved is mine."

I've anchored my soul in the Haven of Rest, I'll sail the wide seas no more; The Tempest May sweep o'er the wild stormy deep;  In Jesus I'm safe evermore.

Oh, what wanders peace and gladness fills and thrills the human heart, when the Holy Ghost abides; when the stream of salvation purity to us Imports, when the Holy Ghost abides.

When the Holy Ghost abides, when the Holy Ghost abides;  Streams of full salvation flow, and the heart is all a glow when the Holy Ghost abides.

No desires for worldly pleasure, no pursuit of earthly fame, Whe the Holy Ghost abides;  All the dross of sin's pollution purged a way with holy flame, When the Holy Ghost abides.

When the Holy Ghost abides, when the Holy Ghost abides;  Streams of full salvation flow, and the heart is all a glow when the Holy Ghost abides.

No more stumbling, no more falling, but established we will be When the Holy Ghost abides;  No more anger nor self seeking, from all sin we are made free, When the Holy Ghost abides.

When the Holy Ghost abides, when the Holy Ghost abides;  Streams of full salvation flow, and the heart is all a glow when the Holy Ghost abides.

Are there crosses too heavy to carry, And burdens too heavy to bear, Are there heart aches and tears and anguish And no one who seems to care?

Standing somewhere in the shadows you'll find Jesus, He's the Friend who always cares and understands.  Standing somewhere in the shadows you will find Him And you'll know Him by the nail prints in His hands.

Are there shadows of deep disappointment And trust that have proven untrue;  Has the darkness of night settled round you, Has your hope and your faith wavered too?

Standing somewhere in the shadows you'll find Jesus, He's the Friend who always cares and understands.  Standing somewhere in the shadows you will find Him And you'll know Him by the nail prints in His hands.

Has the storm overshadowed your sunshine, And life lost attraction for you, Have the dreams that you cherished been broken, Is your soul filled with bitterness too?

Standing somewhere in the shadows you'll find Jesus, He's the Friend who always cares and understands.  Standing somewhere in the shadows you will find Him And you'll know Him by the nail prints in His hands.

I've Pitched My Tent in Beulah
From Blue book - Melodies of Praise
page 189

I long ago left Egypt, for the promised land, I trusted in my Savior and to His guiding hand, He led me out to vict'ry thro' the great red sea, I sang a song of triumph, and shouted, "I am free."

 

You need not look for me, down in Egypt's sand, For I have pitched my tent far up in Beulah land; You need not look for me, down in Egypt's sand, For I have pitched my tent far up in Beulah land.   

 

I followed close beside Him and the land soon found, I did not halt or tremble, for Canaan I was bound, My Guide I fully trusted and He led me in, I shouted, "hallelujah, my heart is free from sin."

 

You need not look for me, down in Egypt's sand, For I have pitched my tent far up in Beulah land; You need not look for me, down in Egypt's sand, For I have pitched my tent far up in Beulah land.   

 

I started for the highlands where the fruits abound, I pitched my tent near Hebron, there grapes of eshcol found. With milk and honey flowing, and new wine so free, I have no love for Egypt, it has no charms for me,

 

You need not look for me, down in Egypt's sand, For I have pitched my tent far up in Beulah land; You need not look for me, down in Egypt's sand, For I have pitched my tent far up in Beulah land.   

 

My heart is so enraptured as I press along, Each day I find new blessings which fill my heart with song, I'm ever marching onward to that land on high, Some day I'll reach my mansion that's builded in the sky.

 

You need not look for me, down in Egypt's sand, For I have pitched my tent far up in Beulah land; You need not look for me, down in Egypt's sand, For I have pitched my tent far up in Beulah land.

Misunderstood, the Saviour of sinners, Hung on the cross; He was God's only Son; Oh! hear Him call His father in heaven, "Let not my will, but Thine be done."

 

Oh, when I come to the end of my journey, Weary of life and the battle is won; Car'ing the staff and the cross of redemption, He'll understand and say "Well done. "

 

If when this life of labor is ended, And the reward; of the race you have run; Oh! take the sweet rest prepared for faithful, Will be His blest, and final, "Well done."

 

Oh, when I come to the end of my journey, Weary of life and the battle is won; Car'ing the staff and the cross of redemption, He'll understand and say "Well done. "

 

But if you try and fail in your trying, Hands sore and scarred from the work you've begun; Take up your cross, run quickly to meet Him, He'll understand, He'll say, "Well done."

 

Oh, when I come to the end of my journey, Weary of life and the battle is won; Car'ing the staff and the cross of redemption, He'll understand and say "Well done. "

185 The Fire Is Burning

The Fire Is Burning
From Blue book - Melodies of Praise
page 185

I've been on Mount Pisgah's lofty height, And I've satisfied my longing heart's desire; For I caught a glimpse of glory bright, And my soul is burning with the fire.

 

O the fire is burning, yes, 'tis brightly burning, O 'tis, burning, burning in my soul; O the fire is burning, yes 'tis brightly burning , O 'tis burning, burning, in my soul.

 

I will walk with Jesus, bless His name, And to be like Him I ev'ry day aspire; For His love is like a heav'nly flame, And my soul is burning with the fire.

 

O the fire is burning, yes, 'tis brightly burning, O 'tis, burning, burning in my soul; O the fire is burning, yes 'tis brightly burning , O 'tis burning, burning, in my soul.

 

I my all upon the altar lay, As I to my closet lovingly retire; And the flame consumes while there I pray, And my soul is burning with the fire.

 

O the fire is burning, yes, 'tis brightly burning, O 'tis, burning, burning in my soul; O the fire is burning, yes 'tis brightly burning , O 'tis burning, burning, in my soul.

 

By faith's eye I scan the ocean's foam, And beyond I see the haven I desire; There I view the beacon lights of home, And my soul is burning with the fire.

 

O the fire is burning, yes, 'tis brightly burning, O 'tis, burning, burning in my soul; O the fire is burning, yes 'tis brightly burning , O 'tis burning, burning, in my soul.

He leadeth me, He leadeth me, By His own hand He leadeth me: His faithful follower I would be, For by His hand He leadeth me. 

 

Sometimes 'mid scenes of deepest gloom, Sometimes where Eden's bowers bloom, By waters still, o'er troubled sea, Still 'tis His hand that leadeth me!

 

He leadeth me, He leadeth me, By His own hand He leadeth me: His faithful follower I would be, For by His hand He leadeth me.

He leadeth me, He leadeth me, By His own hand He leadeth me: His faithful follower I would be, For by His hand He leadeth me. 

 

And when my task  on earth is done, When, by Thy grace, the victry's won, E'en death's cold wave I will not flee, Since God thro' Jordan leadeth me.

 

He leadeth me, He leadeth me, By His own hand He leadeth me: His faithful follower I would be, For by His hand He leadeth me.

When the trumpet of the Lord shall sound, and time shall be no more, And the morning breaks, eternal, bright and fair; When the saved of earth shall gather over on the other shore, And the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there. 

 

When the roll is called up yonder, When the roll is called up yonder, When the roll is called up yonder, When the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there. 

 

On that bright and cloudless morning when the dead in Christ shall rise, And the glory of His resurrection share; When His chosen ones shall gather to their home beyond the skies, And the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there.

 

When the roll is called up yonder, When the roll is called up yonder, When the roll is called up yonder, When the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there. 

 

Let us labor for the Master from the dawn till setting sun, Let us talk of all His wondrous love and care; Then when all of life is over, and our work on earth is done, And the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there. 

 

When the roll is called up yonder, When the roll is called up yonder, When the roll is called up yonder, When the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there.

The Healer
From Blue book - Melodies of Praise

On the Cross crucified, In great sorrow He died; The Giver of life was He, Yet my Lord was despised and rejected of men, This Jesus of Calvary.

 

He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; Surely He bore our sorrows, And by His stripes we are healed.

 

Price for healing was paid, As those cruel stripes were made, Within Pilate's judgment hall. Now His suff'ring affords perfect healing for all. This wonderful Healer's mine.

 

He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; Surely He bore our sorrows, And by His stripes we are healed.

 

Came the leper to Christ, Saying, "surely I know, That Thou, Lord, canst make me whole." When His great faith was seen Jesus said, "Yes I will." And touch'd him and made his clean.

 

He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; Surely He bore our sorrows, And by His stripes we are healed.

 

He has healed my sick soul, Made me ev'ry whit whole, And He'll do the same for you. He's the same yesterday and today and for aye, this Healer of men today. 

 

He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; Surely He bore our sorrows, And by His stripes we are healed.

When I've gone the last mile of the way, I will rest at the close of the day, And I know there are joys that await me When I've gone the last mile of the way.

 

If for Christ I proclaim the glad story, If I seek for His sheep gone astray; I am sure He will show me His glory When I've gone the last mile of the way.

 

When I've gone the last mile of the way, I will rest at the close of the day, And I know there are joys that await me When I've gone the last mile of the way.

 

Here the dearest of ties we must sever, Tears of sorrow are seen ev'ry day; But no sickness, no sighing forever When I've gone the last mile of the way.

 

When I've gone the last mile of the way, I will rest at the close of the day, And I know there are joys that await me When I've gone the last mile of the way.

 

And if here I have earnestly striven And have tried all His will to obey; "Twill enhance all the rapture of heaven When I've gone the last mile of the way.

Rescue the perishing, Care for the dying; Jesus is merciful, Jesus will save.

 

Tho' they are slighting Him, Still He is waiting, Waiting the penitent chid to receive; Plead with them earnestly, Plead with them gently; He will forgive if they only believe.

 

Rescue the perishing, Care for the dying; Jesus is merciful, Jesus will save.

 

Down in the human heart, Crushed by the tempter, Feelings lie buried that grace can restore; Touched by a loving heart, Wakened by kindness, Chords that were broken will vibrate once more.

 

Rescue the perishing, Care for the dying; Jesus is merciful, Jesus will save.

 

Rescue the perishing, Duty demands it; Strength for thy labor the Lord will provide; Back to dthe narrow way Patiently win them; Tell the poor wand'rer a Savior had died.

From Blue book - Melodies of Praise
page 176

I wonder, have I giv'n my best to Jesus Who died upon the cruel tree? To think of His great sacrifice at Calv'ry, I know my Lord expects the best from me.

 

How many are the lost that I have lifted? How many are the chained I've helped to free? I wonder, have I done my best for Jesus, When He has done so much for me?

 

The hours that I have wasted are so many, The hours I've spent for Christ so few. Because of all my lack of love for Jesus, I wonder if His heart is breaking too?

 

How many are the lost that I have lifted? How many are the chained I've helped to free? I wonder, have I done my best for Jesus, When He has done so much for me?

 

I wonder have I cared enough for others, Or have I let them die alone? I might have helped a wand'rer to the Saviour; The seed of precious Life I might have sown.

 

How many are the lost that I have lifted? How many are the chained I've helped to free? I wonder, have I done my best for Jesus, When He has done so much for me?

 

No longer will I stay within the valley, I'll climb to mountain heights above; The world is dying now for want of someone To tell them of the Saviour's matchless love.

 

How many are the lost that I have lifted? How many are the chained I've helped to free? I wonder, have I done my best for Jesus, When He has done so much for me?

The mercy of God is an ocean divine, A boundless and fathomless flood; Launch out in the deep, cut away the shoreline, And be lost in the fulless of God.

 

Launch out into the deep, Oh, let the shoreline go, Launch out, launch out in the ocean divine, Out where the full tides flow.

 

But many, alas! only stand on the shore  And gaze on the ocean so wide; They never have ventured its depths to explore, Or to launch on the fathomless tide.

 

Launch out into the deep, Oh, let the shoreline go, Launch out, launch out in the ocean divine, Out where the full tides flow.

 

And others just venture away from the land, And linger so near to the shore, That the surf and the slime that beat over the strand, Dash o'er them in floods evermore.

 

Launch out into the deep, Oh, let the shoreline go, Launch out, launch out in the ocean divine, Out where the full tides flow.

 

Oh, let us launch out on this ocean so broad, Where the floods of salvation o'erflow; Oh, let us be lost in the mercy of God, Till the depths of His fullness we know. 

 

Launch out into the deep, Oh, let the shoreline go, Launch out, launch out in the ocean divine, Out where the full tides flow.

I Need Thee Every Hour
From Blue book - Melodies of Praise
page 163

I need Thee ev'ry hour, Most gracious Lord; No tender voice like Thine Can peace afford.

 

I need Thee, O I need Thee; Ev'ry hour I need Thee! O bless me now, my Savior, I come to Thee! 

 

I need Thee ev'ry hour, Stay thou near by; Temptations lose their pow'r When Thou art nigh.

 

I need Thee, O I need Thee; Ev'ry hour I need Thee! O bless me now, my Savior, I come to Thee! 

 

I need Thee ev'ry hour, In joy or pain; Come quickly and abide, Or life is vain.

 

I need Thee, O I need Thee; Ev'ry hour I need Thee! O bless me now, my Savior, I come to Thee! 

 

I need Thee ev'ry hour, Most Holy One; O make me Thine indeed, Thou blessed Son.

162 Blessed Be the Fountain

Blessed Be the Fountain
From Blue book - Melodies of Praise
page 162

Blessed be the fountain of blood, To a world of sinners revealed; Blessed be the dear Son of God: Only by His stripes we are healed. Tho' I've wandered far from His fold, Bringing to my heart pain and woe, Wash me in the blood of the Lamb, And I shall be whiter than snow.

 

Whiter than the snow, Whiter than the snow; Wash me in the blood of Lamb, And I shall be whiter than snow.

 

Thorny was the crown that He wore, And the cross His body o'ercame; Grievous were the sorrows He bore, But He suffered thus not in vain. May I to that fountain be led, Made to cleanse my sins here below; Wash me in the blood that He shed, And I shall be whiter than snow. 

 

Whiter than the snow, Whiter than the snow; Wash me in the blood of Lamb, And I shall be whiter than snow.

 

Father, I have wandered from Thee, Often has my heart gone astray; Crimson do my sins seem to me---  water cannot wash them away. Jesus, to that fountain of Thine, Leaning on Thy promise, I go; Cleanse me by Thy washing divine, And I shall be whiter than snow.

 

Whiter than the snow, Whiter than the snow; Wash me in the blood of Lamb, And I shall be whiter than snow.

161 I Am Thine, O Lord

I Am Thine, O Lord
From Blue book - Melodies of Praise
page 161

I am thine O Lord, I have heard Thy voice, And it told Thy love to me; But I long to rise in the arms of faith, And be closer drawn to Thee.

 

Draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord, To the cross where Thou hast died; Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer, blessed Lord, To Thy precious, bleeding side.  

 

Consecrate me now to Thy service, Lord, By the pow'r of grace divine; Let my soul look up with a steadfast hope, And my will be lost in Thine.

 

Draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord, To the cross where Thou hast died; Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer, blessed Lord, To Thy precious, bleeding side.

 

O the pure delight of a single hour That before Thy throne I spend, When I kneel in prayer, and with Thee, my God, I commune as friend with friend!

 

Draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord, To the cross where Thou hast died; Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer, blessed Lord, To Thy precious, bleeding side.

 

There are depths of love that I cannot know Till I cross the narrow sea; There are heights of joy that  I may not reach Till I rest in peace with Thee.  

 

Draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord, To the cross where Thou hast died; Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer, blessed Lord, To Thy precious, bleeding side.

160 Worthy The Lamb

Worthy The Lamb
From Blue book - Melodies of Praise
page 160

"Worthy is the Lamb," the hosts of heaven sing, As before the throne they make His praises ring; "Worthy is the Lamb the book to open wide, Worthy is the Lamb who once was crucified."

 

Oh, this bleeding Lamb, oh, this bleeding Lamb, Oh, this dying Lamb, He was found worthy; Oh, this bleeding Lamb, oh this bleeding Lamb, Oh this dying Lamb, He was found worthy.

 

Worthy is the Lamb who shed His precious blood To restore a world to happiness and God; "When no eye could pity and no arm could save," Jesus, for our ransom, Himself freely gave.  

 

Oh, this bleeding Lamb, oh, this bleeding Lamb, Oh, this dying Lamb, He was found worthy; Oh, this bleeding Lamb, oh this bleeding Lamb, Oh this dying Lamb, He was found worthy.

 

Worthy is the Lamb, the bleeding sacrifice Who for Adam's race paid such a fearful price; Worthy is the Lamb, the Paschal Lamb of God, For the world received "Redemption thro' His blood."

 

Oh, this bleeding Lamb, oh, this bleeding Lamb, Oh, this dying Lamb, He was found worthy ; Oh, this bleeding Lamb, oh this bleeding Lamb, Oh this dying Lamb, He was found worthy.

 

"Worthy is the Lamb," let men and angels sing, "Worthy is the Lamb," let hallelujah's ring; And when life is past, upon the golden shore, "Worthy is the Lamb," we'll shout forevermore.

 

Oh, this bleeding Lamb, oh, this bleeding Lamb, Oh, this dying Lamb, He was found worthy; Oh, this bleeding Lamb, oh this bleeding Lamb, Oh this dying Lamb, He was found worthy.

159 Master, The Tempest Is Raging

Master, The Tempest Is Raging
From Blue book - Melodies of Praise
page 159

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 threatening A grave in the angry deep?

 

"The wind 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!

 

Master, with anguish of spirit I bow in my grief today; 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!

 

"The wind 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!

 

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.

 

"The wind 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!

158 Jesus Opened up the Way

Jesus Opened up the Way
From Blue book - Melodies of Praise
page 158

Jesus Christ the Lord opened up the way to glory When He died to save us from our ruined state, And He asks that we shall go tell the world the story, How His blood will save them from their awful fate.

 

Jesus opened up the way to heaven's gate When He died on the cross, To redeem all the lost; He prepared the road that leads To His abode, 'Tis a road marked by blood But it leads us home to God.

 

And the way is marked by the footprints of the Savior, With His blood He made it, made it plain and straight; If you walk that way, It will lead you into heaven, Lead you safely into glory's golden gate.

 

Jesus opened up the way to heaven's gate When He died on the cross, To redeem all the lost; He prepared the road that leads To His abode, 'Tis a road marked by blood But it leads us home to God.

 

Sinner, will you come and join in this heav'nly journey, Walk the bloody pathway that the Savior trod; Then when life is over and all the sheaves are garnered, You will meet the Savior and be not afraid.

 

Jesus opened up the way to heaven's gate When He died on the cross, To redeem all the lost; He prepared the road that leads To His abode, 'Tis a road marked by blood But it leads us home to God.

157 God Is Still on the Throne

God Is Still on the Throne
From Blue book - Melodies of Praise
page 157

Have you started for glory and heaven, Have you left this old world far behind; In your heart is the Comforter dwelling, Can you say "Praise the Lord, He is mine;" Have the ones that once walked on the highway, Gone back, and you seem all alone? Keep your eyes on the prize, for the home in the skies, God is still on the throne.

 

God is still on the throne, and He will remember His own; Tho' trials may press us and burdens distress us, He never will leave us alone; God is still on the throne, He never forsaketh His own; His promise is true, He will not forget you, God is still on the throne.

 

Burdened soul, is your heart growing weary With the toil and the heat of the day; Does it seem that your path is more thorny, As you journey along on life's way? Go away and in secret before Him Tell your grief to the Saviour alone; He will lighten your care, for He still answers pray'r, God is still on the throne.

 

God is still on the throne, and He will remember His own; Tho' trials may press us and burdens distress us, He never will leave us alone; God is still on the throne, He never forsaketh His own; His promise is true, He will not forget you, God is still on the throne. 

 

You may live in a tent or a cottage, Unnoticed by those who pass by; But a mansion for you He is building In that beautiful city on high; It will outshine the wealth and the splendor Of the richest on earth we have known; He's the Architect true, and He's building for you; God is still on the throne.

 

God is still on the throne, and He will remember His own; Tho' trials may press us and burdens distress us, He never will leave us alone; God is still on the throne, He never forsaketh His own; His promise is true, He will not forget you, God is still on the throne. 

 

He is coming again, is the promise To disciples when He went away; In like manner as He has gone from you, You will see Him returning some day; Does His tarrying cause you to wonder, Does it seem He's forgotten His own? His promise is true, He is coming for you; God is still on the throne.

 

God is still on the throne, and He will remember His own; Tho' trials may press us and burdens distress us, He never will leave us alone; God is still on the throne, He never forsaketh His own; His promise is true, He will not forget you, God is still on the throne.
