Of him the sacred record saith

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Matching Instances: 1 Scripture: Acts 11:22-26 Lyrics: Of him the sacred record saith, He was a good man, full of faith, Who by the Holy Spirit led, Rejoiced to see the Gospel spread:-- Spread by the Saints where'r they went From martyrdom to banishment; The cross through every region bore, And more oppress'd, prevail'd the more. From doom'd Jerusalem cast forth, Eastward and westward, south and north! On fertile field, and barren clod, They sow'd the seed, the Word of God. To heathen Antioch, when they came, And first received their Master's name, They gloried in it, and bequeath'd The inheritance to all that breathed:-- To all that breathed by second birth, Children of God, though sons of earth, For "Christians," Christians such shall be Till time becomes eternity. 142 Well then might Barnabas rejoice, And aid the work with heart and voice, For though by earth and hell assail'd, The truth grew mighty and prevail'd. Ye faithful souls, from age to age, Transmit your heavenly heritage, Christ's easy yoke with meekness wear, And bear His cross whose name ye bear:-- That all the living, in that day, When Heaven and Earth must pass away, Redeemed from sin, through grace restored, May be caught up to meet the Lord.

Harlow Meter: 11.10.11.10.10 Appears in 242 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Scripture: Acts 11:23 First Line: I would be true, for there are those who trust me Lyrics: 1 I would be true, for there are those who trust me; I would be pure, for there are those who care; I would be strong, for there is much to suffer; I would be brave, for there is much to dare. 2 I would be friend of all—the foe, the friendless; I would be giving, and forget the gift; I would be humble, for I know my weakness; I would look up, and laugh, and love, and lift. 3 I would be faithful through each passing moment; I would be constantly in touch with God; I would be strong to follow where He leads me; I would have faith to keep the path Christ trod. 4 Who is so low that I am not his brother? Who is so high that I’ve no path to him? Who is so poor I may not feel his hunger? Who is so rich I may not pity him? 5 Who is so hurt I may not know his heartache? Who sings for joy my heart may never share? Who in God’s heav’n has passed beyond my vision? Who to hell’s depths where I may never fare? 6 May none, then, call on me for understanding, May none, then, turn to me for help in pain, And drain alone his bitter cup of sorrow, Or find he knocks upon my heart in vain. Used With Tune: [I would be true, for there are those who trust me] Text Sources: Timeless Truths (http://library.timelesstruths.org/music/I_Would_Be_True)
