Waiting for Us

Author: A. S. Doughty Hymnal: HSS1889 #70 (1889) First Line: Oft across life's pathway dreary Refrain First Line: Waiting for us there in the glorious summer land Lyrics: 1 Oft across life’s pathway dreary Bursts a heav’nly gleam, As some pilgrim lone and weary Nears the mystic stream; Then the sound of voices calling From a fairer clime, Cheers with echoes gently falling On the shores of time. Refrain: Waiting for us there in the glorious summer land, Gather’d with the saints, shouting vic’try on the strand; Waiting there to meet us, as Time’s ling’ring shadows flee; Waiting with songs to greet us, near the beautiful jasper sea. 2 Friends and lov’d ones gone before us To the Edenland, Sing the hallelujah chorus With the angel band; They upon our night of sorrow Ever looking down, Watch and wait the joyous morrow That shall bring the crown. [Refrain] 3 From the gift of inspiration Gleams a hallowed ray, Teaching heirs of Christ’s salvation— Angels guard their way— Waiting near the jeweled portal, Longing for the day, When we shall for crowns immortal Part with dying clay. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Oft across life's pathway dreary]

Refrain: I am coming, gracious Saviour, All to Thee I now resign; Wash me in the fount of cleansing, And seal me ever, ever Thine. 2 Wand’ring o’er a weary desert, Faint and sadden’d I have trod, Seeking rest where rest’s a stranger, Finding naught to ease my load.

Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah!

Hymnal: HSS1889 #74 (1889) Lyrics: 1 Guide me, O Thou great Jehovah! Pilgrim through this barren land; I am weak, but Thou art mighty; Hold me with Thy pow’rful hand. Open now the crystal fountain, Whence the healing stream doth flow; Let the fire and cloudy pillar, Lead me all my journey thro’, Lead me all my journey thro’. 2 Feed me with the Heav’nly manna, In this barren wilderness; Be my sword, and shield, and banner, Be the Lord my righteousness. When I tread the verge of Jordan, Bid my anxious fears subside; Death of deaths, and hell’s destruction, Land me safe on Canaan’s side, Land me safe on Canaan’s side. Tune Title: [Guide me, O Thou great Jehovah!]

No Place to Lay His Head

Author: Harvey Reynolds Hymnal: HSS1889 #78 (1889) First Line: O'er the dark wave of Galilee Refrain First Line: Beasts have their lairs Lyrics: 1 O’er the dark wave of Galilee The gloom of twilight gathers fast, And on the waters drearily Descends the fitful evening blast. Refrain: Beasts have their lairs, And birds their downy nests, But the Son of God Hath not where to lay His head. 2 The weary bird hath left the air And sunk into his shelter’d nest; The wand’ring beast has sought his lair And laid him down to welcome rest. [Refrain] 3 Still near the lake, with weary tread Lingers a form of human kind, And on His lone unshelter’d head Flows the chill night damp of the wind. [Refrain] 4 Why seeks He not a home of rest? Why seeks He not a pillow’d bed? Beasts have their dens, the bird its nest; He hath not where to lay His head. [Refrain] Tune Title: [O'er the dark wave of Galilee]

The Pilgrims’ Promise

Author: Albert Midlane Hymnal: HSS1889 #81 (1889) First Line: There's a Friend for friendless pilgrims Lyrics: 1 There’s a Friend for friendless pilgrims Above the bright blue sky, A Friend who never changes; Whose love will never die. Unlike our friends by nature, Who change with changing years This friend is always worthy The precious name he bears. This friend is always worthy The precious name he bears. 2 There’s a rest for weary pilgrims Above the bright blue sky, Who love the blessed Saviour, And to their Father cry; A rest from ev’ry trouble, From sin and hunger free. There ev’ry weary pilgrim Shall rest eternally. There ev’ry weary pilgrim Shall rest eternally. 3 There’s a home for homeless pilgrims Above the bright blue sky, Where Jesus reigns in glory, A home of peace and joy. No home on earth is like it, Nor can with it compare; For ev’ry one is happy, Nor can be happier there. For ev’ry one is happy, Nor can be happier there. 4 There’s a crown for faithful pilgrims Above the bright blue sky, And all who look to Jesus Shall wear it by and by; A crown of brightest glory, Which he shall sure bestow, On all who love the Saviour, And walk with him below. On all who love the Saviour, And walk with him below. Tune Title: [There's a Friend for friendless pilgrims]
