O Jesus, I have promised
Author: John Ernest Bode (1816-1874) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #644a (2005) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Scripture: Colossians 3:4 Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, I have promised
to serve you to the end;
be now and always near me,
my master and my friend:
I shall not fear the battle
if you are by my side,
not wander from the pathway
if you will be my guide.
2 Oh, let me feel you near me:
the world is ever near;
I see the sights that dazzle,
the tempting sounds I hear;
my foes are ever near me,
around me, and within;
but, Jesus, draw still nearer,
and shield my soul from sin.
3 Oh, let me hear you speaking
in accents clear and still,
above the storms of passion,
the murmurs of self-will;
Oh, speak to reassure me,
to hasten or control;
O speak, and make me listen,
true guardian of my soul.
4 O Jesus, you have promised
to all who follow you,
that where you are in glory
your servant shall be too;
and, Jesus, I have promised
to serve you to the end:
now give me grace to follow,
my master and my friend. Topics: The Holy Spirit The Church Celebrates - Confirmation; Conflict; Discipleship Languages: English Tune Title: THORNBURY

O Jesus, I have promised
Nearer home, nearer home
Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #1358 (1886) Scripture: Colossians 3:4 First Line: "Forever with the Lord!" Lyrics: 1 "Forever with the Lord!"
Amen, so let it be;
Life for the dead is in that word:
'Tis immortality.
Here in this body pent,
Absent from him I roam;
Yet nightly pitch my moving tent
A day's march nearer home.
Chorus:
Nearer home, nearer home,
A day's march nearer home.
2 My Father's house on high,
Home of my soul, how near
At times to faith's aspiring eye,
Thy gold gates appear!
Ah, then my spirit faints
To reach the land I love;
The bright inheritance of saints,
Jerusalem above. [Chorus]
3 And when the morn shall come
That ends earth's night of pain,
Thro' grace I shall escape the tomb,
And life eternal gain;
Then knowing "as I'm known,"
How shall I love that word,
And oft repeat before the throne,
"Forever with the Lord!" [Chorus]
4 "Forever with the Lord!"
Father, if 'tis thy will,
The promise of that faithful word
E'en now to me fulfill.
Be thou at my right hand,
Then I can never fail;
Uphold thou me, and I shall stand,
And in thy strength prevail. [Chorus] Topics: Bible Songs Reward of Saints Tune Title: FOREVER WITH THE LORD

bearer of our sin and shame!
By thy merit we find favour;
life is given through thy name.

all our sins on thee were laid;
by almighty love anointed,
thou hast full atonement made.
All thy people are forgiven
through the virtue of thy blood;
opened is the gate of heaven;
reconciled are we with God.
3 Jesus, hail! Enthroned in glory,
there for ever to abide;
all the heavenly host adore thee,
seated at thy Father's side.

to his throne above the skies; Alleluia,
Christ, the Lamb for sinners given, Alleluia,
enters now the highest heaven. Alleluia!
2 There for him high triumph waits;
lift your heads, eternal gates.
He hath conquered death and sin;
take the King of Glory in.
3 Lo, the heaven its Lord receives,
yet he loves the earth he leaves;
though returning to his throne,
still he calls mankind his own.
4 See, he lifts his hands above;
see, he shews the prints of love;
hark, his gracious lips bestow
blessings on his church below.
5 Still for us he intercedes,
his prevailing death he pleads;
near himself prepares our place,
he the first-fruits of our race.
6 Lord, though parted from our sight,
far above the starry height,
grant our hearts may thither rise,
seeking thee above the skies. Topics: Ascension; Ascension Day Languages: English Tune Title: LLANFAIR

from death’s dread sting thy servants free,
that we may live and sing to thee.
