Lord Jesus, if the same you are
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-88 Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 56 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 13:8 Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus, if the same you are,
if all your promises are sure,
set up your kingdom in my heart
and make me rich, for I am poor;
to me be all your treasure given,
the kingdom of an inward heaven.
2 You have pronounced the mourners blest;
for loss of you I ever mourn:
I cannot, and I will not rest
till you, my only rest, return;
till you, the Prince of Peace, appear,
and I receive the Comforter.
3 Where is the blessedness bestowed
on all that hunger after you?
I hunger now, I thirst for God:
now this poor sinner's life renew,
and satisfy with endless peace,
and fill me with your righteousness.
4 Shine on your work, disperse the gloom,
light in your light I'll see anew:
say to my soul, 'Your light is come,
glory divine is risen on you,
your warfare's done, your mourning's past;
look up, your tears shall end at last!'

I'm Just a Poor, Wayfaring Stranger
Meter: Irregular Appears in 54 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 13:14 Lyrics: I'm just a poor, wayfaring stranger,
A trav'ling through this world of woe;
But there's no sickness, no toil or danger,
In that bright world to which I go.
I'm going there to see my mother,*(1)
I'm going there, no more to roam,
I'm just a-going over Jordan,
I'm just a-going over home.

God is our refuge and defense In trouble our unfailing aid
Author: Montgomery Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 53 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 13:6 Lyrics: 1 GOD is our refuge and defense,
In trouble our unfailing aid;
Secure in his omnipotence,
What does can make our souls afraid?
2 There is a river, pure and bright,
Whose streams make glad the heavenly plains;
There, in eternity of light,
The city of our God remains.
3 Not on a seraph's wing of fire--
But on the mightier wings of prayer,
We reach that home of pure desire,
And feel his cloudless presence there.
4 But soon, how soon! our spirits droop,
Unwont the air of heaven to breathe;
Yet God, in very deed, will stoop,
And dwell himself with men beneath.
5 Come to thy living temples, then;
As in the ancient times appear;
Let earth be Paradise again,
And man, O God, thine image here! Topics: Attributes of God Preserver; The Lord of Hosts is with us
God is our refuge and defense In trouble our unfailing aid

This World Is Not My Home
Author: Albert E. Brumley Appears in 51 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 13:14 Refrain First Line: O Lord, you know I have no friend like you Lyrics: 1 This world is not my home, I'm just a passing through
My treasures are laid up somewhere beyond the blue;
The angels beckon me from heaven's open door,
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore.
Chorus:
O Lord, you know I have no friend like you,
If heaven's not my home, then Lord what will I do?
The angels beckon me from heaven's open door,
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore.
2 They're all expecting me, and that's one thing I know,
My Savior pardoned me and now I onward go;
I know He'll take me thro' tho' I am weak and poor,
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore. [Chorus]
3 I have a loving Savior up in glory-land,
I don't expect to stop until I with Him stand,
He's waiting now for me in heaven's open door,
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore. [Chorus]
4 Just up in glory-land we'll live eternally,
The saints on every hand are shouting victory,
Their songs of sweetest praise drift back from heaven's shore,
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore. [Chorus]
