On Jordan's Stormy Banks I Stand

Author: Samuel Stennett Appears in 1,326 hymnals Matching Instances: 6 Lyrics: 1 On Jordan’s stormy banks I stand, And cast a wishful eye To Canaan’s fair and happy land, To Canaan’s fair and happy land, Where my possessions lie. 2 O the transporting, rapturous scene, That rises to my sight. Sweet fields array’d in living green, Sweet fields array’d in living green, And rivers of delight. 3 All o’er those wide extended plains Shines one eternal day; There God, the Son, forever reigns, There God, the Son, forever reigns, And scatters night away. 4 No chilling winds, nor poisonous breath Can reach that healthful shore; Sickness and sorrow, pain and death, Sickness and sorrow, pain and death, Are felt and feared no more. 5 When shall I reach that happy place, And be forever blest? When shall I see my Father’s face, When shall I see my Father’s face, And in His bosom rest? Topics: Heaven Used With Tune: TAPPAN

There is an hour of peaceful rest

Author: William Bingham Tappan Appears in 566 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 Lyrics: 1 There is an hour of peaceful rest, To mourning wand’rers giv'n: There is a joy for souls distressed, A balm for ev'ry wounded breast, ’Tis found above in heav'n. 2 There is a soft, a downy bed, 'Tis fair as breath of even; A couch for weary mortals spread, Where they may rest the aching head, And find repose in heaven. 3 There is a home for weary souls, By sin and sorrow driven; When tossed on life’s tempestuous shoals, Where storms arise and ocean rolls, And all is drear but heaven. 4 There, faith lifts up her cheerful eye, To brighter prospects given; And views the tempest passing by, The ev'ning shadows quickly fly, And all serene in heaven. 5 There fragrant flow'rs immortal bloom, And joys supreme are given; There, joys divine disperse the gloom: Beyond the confines of the tomb Appears the dawn of heaven.

Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 210 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 There is a house not made with hands, Eternal and on high; And here my spirit waiting stands, And here my spirit waiting stands, Till God shall bid it fly. 2 Shortly this prison of my clay Must be dissolved and fall, Then, O my soul! with joy obey Then, O my soul! with joy obey Thy Heavenly Father's call. 3 'Tis He, by His almighty grace, That forms thee fit for heaven, And as an earnest of the place, And as an earnest of the place, Has His own Spirit given. 4 We walk by faith of joys to come, Faith lives upon His word; But while the body is our home, But while the body is our home, We're absent from the Lord.

Help me, O Lord, to trust in Thee

Appears in 5 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Help me, O Lord, to trust in Thee, Whatever may betide; Though health should fail, and riches flee, Though friends, the dearest far to me, Be taken from my side. 2 I know that sickness, sorrow, death, Lie in the onward way; O help me, in true-hearted faith, To rest on Jesus' word, which saith, "Strength shall be as thy day." 3 In sickness passed, in dangers o'er, My Helper Thou hast been; Then should I, for each coming hour, Trust childlike that thy love and power Support will yield again. 4 Though in that last, that darksome glade, Ends all our earthly view, If but Thy voice, "Be not afraid," Be heard amid its deep'ning shade, I'll calmly journey through. 5 When this poor heart on Thee I stay, On earth is heaven begun; Then love leads on from day to day In duty's path and helps me say, "Thy will, not mine, be done." 6 Thus would I ever trust in Thee, My Comforter and Guide: For e'en though fears and sins prevail, Thy promises can never fail, Whatever may betide.

Appears in 26 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 See the kind Shepherd, Jesus, stands, With all-engaging charms; Hark, how he calls his tender lambs, Hark, how he calls his tender lambs, And folds them in his arms. 2 Permit them to approach, he cried, Nor scorn their humble name; For 'twas to bless such souls as these, For 'twas to bless such souls as these, The Lord of angels came. 3 He'll lead us to the heavenly streams Where living waters flow. And guide us to the fruitful fields Where trees of knowledge grow. 4 The feeblest lamb amid the flock Shall be its Shepherd's care; While folded in the Saviour's arms, We're safe from every snare.
