"Fear Not"

Author: George Keith Hymnal: Laudes Domini #343 (1888) Topics: Christians Encouragements First Line: How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord! Lyrics: 1 How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord! Is laid for your faith in his excellent word! What more can he say, than to you he hath said,-- To you, who for refuge to Jesus have fled? 2 "Fear not, I am with thee, oh, be not dismayed, For I am thy God, I will still give thee aid; I'll strengthen thee, help thee, and cause thee to stand, Upheld by my gracious, omnipotent hand. 3 "When through the deep waters I call thee to go, The rivers of sorrow shall not overflow; For I will be with thee thy trouble to bless, And sanctify, to thee thy deepest distress. 4 "When through fiery trials thy pathway shall lie, My grace, all-sufficient, shall be thy supply; The flame shall not hurt thee; I only design Thy dross to consume, and thy gold to refine. 5 "Ev'n down to old age all my people shall prove My sovereign, eternal, unchangeable love; And then, when gray hairs shall their temples adorn, Like lambs they shall still in my bosom be borne. 6 "The soul that on Jesus hath leaned for repose, I will not--I will not desert to his foes; That soul--though all hell should endeavor to shake, I'll never--no never--no never forsake!" Scripture: Psalm 37:25 Languages: English Tune Title: PORTUGUESE HYMN

"Looking unto Jesus"

Author: John N. Darby Hymnal: Laudes Domini #344 (1888) Topics: Christians Encouragements First Line: O eyes that are weary, and hearts that are sore! Lyrics: 1 O eyes that are weary, and hearts that are sore! Look off unto Jesus, now sorrow no more! The light of his countenance shineth so bright, That here, as in heaven, there need be no night. 2 While looking to Jesus, my heart cannot fear; I tremble no more when I see Jesus near; I know that his presence my safeguard will be, For, "Why are you troubled," he saith unto me. 3 Still looking to Jesus, oh, may I be found, When Jordan's dark waters encompass me round; They bear me away in his presence to be: I see him still nearer whom always I see. 4 Then, then shall I know the full beauty and grace Of Jesus, my Lord, when I stand face to face; Shall know how his love went before me each day, And wonder that ever my eyes turned away.

Psalm 23

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Laudes Domini #345 (1888) Topics: Christians Encouragements First Line: The Lord is my Shepherd, no want shall I know Lyrics: 1 The Lord is my Shepherd, no want shall I know; I feed in green pastures, safe-folded I rest; He leadeth my soul where the still waters flow, Restores me when wandering, redeems when oppressed. 2 Through the valley and shadow of death though I stray, Since thou art my Guardian, no evil I fear; Thy rod shall defend me, thy staff be my stay; No harm can befall, with my Comforter near. 3 In the midst of affliction, my table is spread; With blessings unmeasured my cup runneth o'er; With perfume and oil thou anointest my head; Oh, what shall I ask of thy providence more? 4 Let goodness and mercy, my bountiful God! Still follow my steps till I meet thee above; I seek, by the path which my forefathers trod Through the land of their sojourn, thy kingdom of love.

"Faint, yet pursuing"

Author: John N. Darby Hymnal: Laudes Domini #346 (1888) Topics: Christians Encouragements First Line: Though faint, yet pursuing, we go on our way Lyrics: 1 Though faint, yet pursuing, we go on our way; The Lord is our Leader, his word is our stay; Tho' suffering, and sorrow, and trial be near, The Lord is our Refuge, and whom can we fear? 2 He raiseth the fallen, he cheereth the faint; The weak, and oppressed--he will hear their complaint; The way may be weary, and thorny the road, But how can we falter?--our help is in God! 3 And to his green pastures our footsteps he leads; His flock in the desert how kindly he feeds! The lambs in his bosom he tenderly bears, And brings back the wanderers all safe from the snares. 4 Though clouds may surround us, our God is our light; Though storms rage around us, our God is our might; So, faint yet pursuing, still onward we come; The Lord is our Leader, and heaven is our home!

Watch and pray

Author: Charlotte Eliott Hymnal: Laudes Domini #348 (1888) Topics: Christians Encouragements First Line: Christian, seek not yet repose Lyrics: 1 Christian, seek not yet repose, Cast thy dreams of ease away; Thou art in the midst of foes; Watch and pray. 2 Principalities and power, Mustering their unseen array, Wait for their unguarded hours: Watch and pray. 3 Gird thy heavenly armor on, Wear it ever night and day; Ambushed lies the evil one: Watch and pray. 4 Hear the victors who o'ercame; Still they mark each warrior's way; All with warning voice exclaim,-- Watch and pray. 5 Hear, above all, hear thy Lord; Him thou lovest to obey; Hide within thy heart his word, Watch and pray. 5 Watch, as if on that alone Hung the issue of the day; Pray that help may be sent down; Watch and pray.
