"Watch"

Author: George Heath Hymnal: Laudes Domini #352 (1888) Topics: Christians Encouragements First Line: My soul, be on thy guard Lyrics: 1 My soul, be on thy guard, Ten thousand foes arise; And hosts of sin are pressing hard To draw thee from the skies. 2 Oh, watch, and fight, and pray! The battle ne'er give o'er; Renew it boldly every day, And help divine implore. 3 Ne'er think the victory won, Nor lay thine armor down; Thine arduous work will not be done, Till thou obtain thy crown, 4 Fight on, my soul, till death Shall bring thee to thy God! He'll take thee at thy parting breath, Up to his blest abode. Scripture: Mark 13:33 Languages: English Tune Title: LABAN

"All is well"

Author: Mrs. Mary B. Peters Hymnal: Laudes Domini #355 (1888) Topics: Christians Encouragements First Line: Through the love of God our Saviour Lyrics: 1 Through the love of God our Saviour, All will be well; Free and changeless is his favor; All, all is well. Precious is the blood that healed us; Perfect is the grace that sealed us; Strong the hand stretched out to shield us; All must be well. 2 Though we pass through tribulation, All will be well: Ours is such a full salvation; All, all is well. Happy still in God confiding, Fruitful, if in Christ abiding, Holy, through the Spirit's guiding, All must be well. 3 We expect a bright to-morrow; All will be well; Faith can sing through days of sorrow, All, all is well. On our Father's love relying, Jesus every need supplying, Or in living, or in dying, All must be well. Scripture: Job 37:21 Languages: English

Matthew 6:25-34

Author: William Cowper Hymnal: Laudes Domini #356 (1888) Topics: Christians Encouragements First Line: Sometimes a light surprises Lyrics: 1 Sometimes a light surprises The Christian while he sings; It is the Lord who rises With healing in his wings: When comforts are declining, He grants the soul again A season of clear shining, To cheer it after rain. 2 In holy contemplation, We sweetly then pursue The theme of God's salvation, And find it ever new: Set free from present sorrow, We cheerfully can say, Let the unknown to-morrow Bring with it what it may. 3 It can bring with it nothing, But he will bring us through; Who gives the lilies clothing, Will clothe his people too: Beneath the spreading heavens, No creature but is fed; And he who feeds the ravens, Will give his children bread. 4 Though vine nor fig-tree neither, Their wonted fruit should bear, Though all the fields should wither, Nor flocks, nor herds be there; Yet God the same abiding, His praise shall tune my voice, For while in him confiding, I cannot but rejoice.

Perfect peace

Author: Anna L. Waring Hymnal: Laudes Domini #357 (1888) Topics: Christians Encouragements First Line: In heavenly love abiding Lyrics: 1 In heavenly love abiding, No change my heart shall fear, And safe is such confiding, For nothing changes here: The storm may roar without me, My heart may low be laid, But God is round about me, And can I be dismayed? 2 Wherever he may guide me, No want shall turn me back; My Shepherd is beside me, And nothing can I lack: His wisdom ever waketh, His sight is never dim: He knows the way he taketh, And I will walk with him. 3 Green pastures are before me, Which yet I have not seen; Bright skies will soon be o'er me, Where darkest clouds have been: My hope I cannot measure; My path to life is free; My Saviour has my treasure, And he will walk with me.

"Having done all, stand"

Author: George Duffield Hymnal: Laudes Domini #358 (1888) Topics: Christians Encouragements First Line: Stand up!--stand up for Jesus! Lyrics: 1 Stand up!--stand up for Jesus! Ye soldiers of the cross; Lift high his royal banner, It must not suffer loss: From victory unto victory His army shall he lead, Till every foe is vanquished, And Christ is Lord indeed. 2 Stand up!--stand up for Jesus! The trumpet call obey; Forth to the mighty conflict, In this his glorious day: "Ye that are men, now serve him," Against unnumbered foes; Let courage rise with danger, And strength to strength oppose. 3 Stand up!--stand up for Jesus! Stand in his strength alone; The arm of flesh will fail you-- Ye dare not trust your own; Put on the gospel armor, And, watching unto prayer, Where duty calls, or danger, Be never wanting there. 4 Stand up!--stand up for Jesus! The strife will not be long; This day, the noise of battle, The next, the victor's song; To him that overcometh, A crown of life shall be; He with the King of glory Shall reign eternally!

"Peace, be still"

Author: Godfrey Thring Hymnal: Laudes Domini #359 (1888) Topics: Christians Encouragements First Line: Fierce raged the tempest o'er the deep Lyrics: 1 Fierce raged the tempest o'er the deep, Watch did thine anxious servants keep, But thou wast wrapped in guileless sleep, Calm and still. 2 "Save, Lord, we perish," was their cry, "Oh, save us in our agony!" Thy word above the storm rose high, "Peace, be still." 3 The wild winds hushed; the angry deep Sank, like a little child, to sleep; The sullen billows ceased to leap, At thy will. 4 So, when our life is clouded o'er, And storm-winds drift us from the shore, Say, lest we sink to rise no more, "Peace, be still."

Isaiah 40:28-31

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Laudes Domini #361 (1888) Topics: Christians Encouragements First Line: Awake, our souls! away, our fears! Lyrics: 1 Awake, our souls! away, our fears! Let every trembling thought be gone; Awake, and run the heavenly race, And put a cheerful courage on! 2 True, 'tis a strait and thorny road, And mortal spirits tire and faint; But they forget the mighty God, Who feeds the strength of every saint-- 3 The mighty God, whose matchless power Is ever new and ever young, And firm endures, while endless years Their everlasting circles run. 4 From thee, the overflowing spring, Our souls shall drink a fresh supply; While such as trust their native strength Shall melt away, and droop, and die. 5 Swift as an eagle cuts the air, We'll mount aloft to thine abode; On wings of love our souls shall fly, Nor tire amid the heavenly road! Scripture: Deuteronomy 32:11 Languages: English Tune Title: MISSIONARY CHANT
