Breast the wave, Christian, when it is strongest

Author: Joseph Stammers Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #617 (1886) Topics: The Christian Warfare and Pilgrimage Lyrics: 1 Breast the wave, Christian, when it is strongest; Watch for day, Christian, when night is longest; Onward and upward still be thine endeavor; The rest that remaineth endureth forever. 2 Fight the fight, Christian, Jesus is o'er thee; Run the race, Christian, heaven is before thee; He who hath promised will falter, no, never; O trust in the love that endureth forever. 3 Lift the eye, Christian, just as it closeth; Raise the heart, Christian, ere it reposeth: Nothing thy soul from the Saviour can sever; And soon shalt thou see him and praise him forever.

Here o'er the earth as a stranger I roam

Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #618 (1886) Topics: The Christian Warfare and Pilgrimage Lyrics: 1 Here o'er the earth as a stranger I roam; Here is no rest, is no rest; Here as a pilgrim I wander alone; Yet I am blest, I am blest. For I look forward to that glorious day When sin and sorrow will vanish away. My heart doth leap while I hear Jesus say, There, there is rest, there is rest. 2 Here fierce temptations beset me around; Here is no rest, is no rest; Here I am grieved while my foes me surround; Yet I am blest, I am blest. Let them revile me, and scoff at my name, Laugh at my weeping endeavor to shame; I will go forward, for this is my theme, There, there is rest, there is rest. 3 Here are afflictions and trials severe; Here is no rest, is no rest; Here I must part with the friends I hold dear; Yet I am blest, I am blest. Sweet is the promise I read in his word, Blessed are they who have died in the Lord; They will be called to receive their reward; Then there is rest, there is rest. 4 This world of cares is a wilderness state, Here is no rest, is no rest; Here I must bear from the world all its hate, Yet I am blest, I am blest, Soon shall I be from the wicked released, Soon shall the weary forever be blest, Soon shall I lean upon Jesus' breast; Then there is rest, there is rest.

I am weak, but you are mighty; hold me with your pow'rful hand. Bread of heaven, bread of heaven, feed me now and evermore, feed me now and evermore. 2 Open now the crystal fountain where the healing waters flow; let the fire and cloudy pillar lead me all my journey through. Strong deliv'rer, strong deliv'rer, shield me with your mighty arm, shield me with your mighty arm. 3 When I tread the verge of Jordan, bid my anxious fears subside; death of death and hell's destruction, land me safe on Canaan's side. Songs and praises, songs and praises I will raise forevermore, I will raise forevermore. Languages: English Tune Title: CWM RHONDDA

Joyfully, joyfully, onward I move

Author: William Hunter Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #619 (1886) Topics: The Christian Warfare and Pilgrimage Lyrics: 1 Joyfully, joyfully, onward I move, Bound for the land of bright glory above; Angelic choristers sing as I come, "Joyfully, joyfully, haste to thy home." Soon shall I pass from this dark vale of woe, Home to the land of the righteous I'll go; Pilgrim and stranger, no more shall I roam, Joyfully, joyfully, resting at home. 2 Friends fondly cherished now sleep in the ground, But they'll awake when the last trump shall sound, Loosed from Death's fetters, and upward we'll soar, Joyfully meeting to part nevermore. Sounds of sweet melody fall on the ear; Harps of the blessed, your voices I'll hear Filling with harmony heaven's high dome, "Joyfully, joyfully, haste to thy home." 3 Death with his weapons of war has laid low Many a pilgrim who feared not the blow; Jesus has broken the bars of the tomb; Joyfully, joyfully, will they come home. Bright will the morn of eternity dawn, Death shall be banished, his scepter be gone; Joyfully, then, shall I witness his doom, Joyfully, joyfully, safely at home. Tune Title: HERE IS NO REST

Lonely and weary, by sorrow oppressed

Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #620 (1886) Topics: The Christian Warfare and Pilgrimage Lyrics: 1 Lonely and weary, by sorrow oppressed, Onward we hasten with longings for rest, Bidding adieu to the world with its pride, Longing to stand by Immanuel's side Though we are pilgrims, before us now rise Visions of glory rejoicing our eyes. Bright are the crowns that we hope soon to wear, Blessed the rest; O we long to be there. 2 There is the city in splendor sublime; O, how its turrets and battlements shine! Pearls are its portals, surpassingly bright, Jasper its walls, and the Lamb is its light. Pathways of gold that blest city adorn, Glittering with glory far brighter than morn; Angels stand beck'ning us onward to share Glory unfading; we long to be there. 3 Rivers are gliding 'mid unfading trees, Songs of the ransomed are borne on the breeze; Glory-gilt mountains resplendent are seen, Valleys and hills clad in Eden-like green; There shall be glory of God ever be, Filling the earth as the waves fill the sea; There shall the ransomed, immortal and fair, Evermore dwell; O, we long to be there. Tune Title: TRIUMPH
