The Race

Author: Philip Doddridge Hymnal: Laudes Domini #334 (1888) Topics: Christians Encouragements First Line: Awake my soul, stretch every nerve Lyrics: 1 Awake, my soul, stretch every nerve, And press with vigor on; A heavenly race demands thy zeal, And an immortal crown. 2 A cloud of witnesses around Hold thee in full survey; Forget the steps already trod, And onward urge thy way. 3 'Tis God's all-animating voice, That calls thee from on high, 'Tis his own hand presents the prize To thine aspiring eye. 4 Blest Saviour, introduced by thee, Have I my race begun; And, crowned with victory, at thy feet, I'll lay my honors down.

The Warfare

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Laudes Domini #335 (1888) Topics: Christians Encouragements First Line: Am I a soldier of the cross Lyrics: 1 Am I a solider of the cross, A followers of the Lamb? And shall I fear to own his cause, Or blush to speak his name? 2 Must I be carried to the skies On flowery beds of ease? While others fought to win the prize, And sailed through bloody seas? 3 Are there no foes for me to face? Must I not stem the flood? Is this vile world a friend to grace, To help me on to God? 4 Sure I must fight, if I would reign; Increase my courage, Lord! I'll bear the toil, endure the pain, Supported by thy word. 5 Thy saints, in all this glorious war, Shall conquer, though they die; They view the triumph from afar, And seize it with their eye. 6 When that illustrious day shall rise, And all thine armies shine In robes of victory through the skies, The glory shall be thine. Scripture: 1 Timothy 6:12 Languages: English Tune Title: CHRISTMAS

"I'm not ashamed"

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Laudes Domini #336 (1888) Topics: Christians Encouragements First Line: I'm not ashamed to own my Lord Lyrics: 1 I'm not ashamed to own my Lord, Or to defend his cause; Maintain the honor of his word, The glory of his cross. 2 Jesus, my God!--I know his name-- His name is all my trust; Nor will he put my soul to shame, Nor let my hope be lost. 3 Firm as his throne his promise stands, And he can well secure What I've committed to his hands, Till the decisive hour. 4 Then will he own my worthless name Before his Father's face, And in the new Jerusalem Appoint my soul a place.

Our salvation near

Author: A. M. Toplady Hymnal: Laudes Domini #337 (1888) Topics: Christians Encouragements First Line: Your harps, ye trembling saints Lyrics: 1 Your harps, ye trembling saints, Down from the willows take: Loud to the praise of love divine Bid every string awake. 2 Though in a foreign land, We are not far from home; And nearer to our house above We every moment come. 3 His grace will to the end Stronger and brighter shine; Nor present things, nor things to come, Shall quench the spark divine. 4 When we in darkness walk, Nor feel the heavenly flame, Then is the time to trust our God, And rest upon his name. 5 Soon shall our doubts and fears Subside at his control; His loving-kindness shall break through The midnight of the soul. 6 Blest is the man, O God, Who stays himself on thee; Who waits for thy salvation, Lord, Shall thy salvation see.

"Be of good courage"

Author: John Wesley Hymnal: Laudes Domini #338 (1888) Topics: Christians Encouragements First Line: Give to the winds thy fears Lyrics: 1 Give to the winds thy fears; Hope, and be undismayed; God hears thy sighs and counts thy tears; God shall lift up thy head. 2 Through waves, and clouds, and storms, He gently clears thy way; Wait thou his time, so shall this night Soon end in joyous day. 3 What though thou rulest not! Yet heaven, and earth, and hell Proclaim, God sitteth on the throne, And ruleth all things well. 4 Far, far above thy thought His counsel shall appear, When fully he the work has wrought, That caused thy needless fear.

Author: Leonard Swain Hymnal: Laudes Domini #339 (1888) Topics: Christians Encouragements First Line: My soul, weigh not thy life Lyrics: 1 My soul, weigh not thy life Against thy heavenly crown; Nor suffer Satan's deadliest strife To beat thy courage down. 2 With prayer and crying strong, Hold on the fearful fight, And let the breaking day prolong The wrestling of the night. 3 The battle soon will yield, If thou thy part fulfill; For strong as is the hostile shield, Thy sword is stronger still. 4 Thine armor is divine, Thy feet with victory shod; And on thy head shall quickly shine The diadem of God.
