Savior! I Follow On

Author: Charles S. Robinson Meter: 10.10.12.10 Appears in 126 hymnals First Line: Savior! I follow on, guided by Thee Lyrics: 1. Savior! I follow on, guided by Thee, Seeing not yet the hand that leadeth me; Hushed be my heart and still, fear I no further ill; Only to meet Thy will my will shall be. 2. Riven the rock for me thirst to relieve, Manna from Heaven falls fresh every eve; Never a want severe causeth my eye a tear, But Thou dost whisper near, Only believe! 3. Often to Marah’s brink have I been brought; Shrinking the cup to drink, help I have sought; And with the prayer’s ascent, Jesus the branch hath rent— Quickly relief hath sent, sweetening the draught. 4. Savior! I long to walk closer with Thee; Led by Thy guiding hand ever to be; Constantly near Thy side, quickened and purified, Living for Him who died freely for me!

Tears of repentant grief, silently fall; Help Thou my unbelief, hear Thou my call; Oh, how I pine for Thee! ’Tis all my hope and plea: Jesus has died for me, Jesus, my all. 3. Still at Thy mercy seat, Savior, I fall; Trusting Thy promise sweet, heard is my call; Faith wings my soul to Thee; this all my song shall be, Jesus has died for me, Jesus my all.

Nearer, my God, to Thee

Author: Sarah F. Adams Meter: 6.4.6.4.6.6.6.4 Appears in 2,484 hymnals Lyrics: Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee, E'en though it be a cross That raiseth me; Still all my song would be, Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee. 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 to Thee. There let the way appear Steps unto heaven; All that Thou sendest me In mercy given; Angels to beckon me Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee. Then with my waking thoughts 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 to Thee. 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 to Thee. Amen.

The Pilgrim's Home

Author: Fanny Crosby Meter: 10.10.12.10 Appears in 12 hymnals First Line: Jesus, I long for Thee Lyrics: 1 Jesus, I long for Thee, friendless I roam, Earth has no joy for me, Heaven is my home; When shall my soul arise, joyful with glad surprise, Up to its native skies? Heaven is my home. 2 Grant me a light divine, while here I roam, O’er my dark path to shine, Heaven is my home; O, my sad heart, be still, patient in every ill, Thine be a Father’s will; Heaven is my home. 3 There shall I see His face, no more to roam, Clasped in His dear embrace, Heaven is my home; Soon shall my spirit rise, joyful with glad surprise, Up to its native skies, Heaven is my home.

When Shall I See The Day?

Author: S. Hubbard Meter: 10.10.12.10 Appears in 38 hymnals First Line: When shall I see the day that ends my woes? Lyrics: 1 When shall I see the day that ends my woes? When shall I victory gain over all my foes? When shall the trumpet sound that calls the exile home? The grand Sabbatic year, when will it come? 2 A crown of glory bright by faith I see, In yonder realms of light, prepared for me; O, may I faithful prove, and keep the prize in view, And thro’ the storms of life my way pursue. 3 Jesus, be Thou my guide, my steps attend; O, keep me near Thy side; be Thou my friend; Be Thou my shield and sun, my Savior and my guard, And, when my work is done, my great reward. 4 O, how I long to see that happy day, When sorrow, sin, and pain shall flee away; When all the heav’nly tribes shall find their long sought home— The Jubilee of Heav’n, when will it come?

Fade, fade, each earthly joy

Author: Mrs. Horatius Bonar Appears in 526 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Fade, fade, each earthly joy; Jesus is mine; Break, every tender tie; Jesus is mine. Dark is the wilderness; Earth has no resting-place; Jesus alone can bless; Jesus is mine. 2 Tempt not my soul away; Jesus is mine; Here would I ever stay; Jesus is mine. Perishing things of clay, Born but for one brief day, Pass from my heart away; Jesus is mine. 3 Farewell, ye dreams of night; Jesus is mine; Lost in this dawning bright, Jesus is mine. All that my soul has tried Left but a dismal void; Jesus has satisfied; Jesus is mine. 4 Farewell, mortality; Jesus is mine; Hail! immortality; Jesus is mine. Welcome, O loved and blest! Welcome, sweet scenes of rest; Welcome, my Saviour's breast; Jesus is mine! Topics: The Christian Godly Life Used With Tune: BETHANY
