Praise the One Who Breaks the Darkness

Author: Rusty Edwards, b. 1955 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 19 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Praise the one who breaks the darkness With a liberating light; Praise the one who frees the pris'ners, Turning blindness into sight. Praise the one who preached the gospel, Healing ev'ry dread disease, Calming storms and feeding thousands With the Father's word of peace. 2 Praise the one who blessed the children With a strong, yet gentle, word; Praise the one who drove out demons With the piercing, two-edged sword. Praise the one who brings cool water To the desert's burning sand; From this well comes living water, Quenching thirst in ev'ry land. 3 Let us praise the Word incarnate, Christ, who suffered in our place; Jesus died and rose victorious That we may know God by grace. Let us sing for joy and gladness, Seeing what our God has done; Let us praise the true Redeemer, Praise the one who makes us one. Topics: Redeemer; Redeemer Used With Tune: BEACH SPRING

Pilgrim Song

Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: All the way my Savior leads me Lyrics: 1 All the way my Savior leads me, Cheers each winding path I tread, Gives me grace for every trial, Feeds me with the living bread, Whether good or ill betide me, Whether skies be dark or clear, Jesus stays so close beside me, That I know and feel Him near. 2 Not forever by still waters Would I idly, quiet stay, But would smite the living fountains From the rocks along the way. Though my weary steps may falter And my soul athirst may be, Gushing from the rock before me, Lo! a spring of joy I see. 3 Many friends were gathered round me In the bright days of the past, But the grave has closed above them, And I linger here the last. Loved ones gone to be with Jesus, In their robes of white arrayed, Now are waiting for my coming Where the roses never fade. 4 While I walk the pilgrim pathway, Clouds will over-spread the sky; But when trav'ling days are over, Not a shadow, not a sigh. When my journey is completed, If to God I have been true, Fair and bright the home in glory My enraptured soul will view. Used With Tune: BEACH SPRING

For Your Gift of God the Spirit

Author: E. Margaret Clarkson Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 12 hymnals Lyrics: 1. For your gift of God the Spirit, Power to make our lives anew, Pledge of life and hope of glory, Savior, we would worship you. Crowning gift of resurrection Sent from your ascended throne, Fullness of the very Godhead, Come to make your life our own. 2. He who in creation's dawning Brooded on the lifeless deep, Still across our nature's darkness Moves to wake our souls from sleep, Moves to stir, to draw, to quicken, Thrusts us through with sense of sin; Brings to birth and seals and fills us, Saving Advocate within. 3. He, himself the living Author, Wakes to life the sacred Word, Reads with us its holy pages And reveals our risen Lord. He it is who works within us, Teaching rebel hearts to pray, He whose holy intercessions Rise for us both night and day. 4. He, the mighty God, indwells us; His to strengthen, help, empower; His to overcome the Tempter-- Ours to call in danger's hour. In his strength we dare to battle All the raging hosts of sin; And by him alone we conquer Foes without and foes within. 5. Father, grant your Holy Spirit In our hearts may rule today; Grieved not, quenched not, but unhindered, Work in us his sovereign way. Fill us with your holy fullness, God the Father, Spirit, Son; In us, through us, then, forever, Shall your perfect will be done. Topics: Pentecost Scripture: Romans 8:26 Used With Tune: BEACH SPRING

Light of Those Whose Dreary Dwelling

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 359 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Light of those whose dreary dwelling borders on the shades of death, come, and by Thy love's revealing, dissipate the clouds beneath. The new heav'n and earth's Creator, in our deepest darkness rise, scatt'ring all the night of nature, pouring eye-sight on our eyes. 2 Still we wait for Thy appearing, life and joy Thy beams impart, chasing all our fears, and hearing ev'ry poor benighted heart. Come, and manifest the favor God hath for our ransom'd race, come, Thou universal Savior, come, and bring the gospel-grace. 3 Save us in Thy great compassion, O Thou mild pacific Prince! give the knowledge of salvation, give the pardon of our sins. By thine all-sufficient merit ev'ry burden'd soul release, ev'ry weary wand'ring spirit, guide into Thy perfect peace.
