I Was a Wandering Sheep

Author: Rev. Horatius Bonar Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #419 (1934) Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Topics: Profession of Faith Lyrics: 1 I was a wandering sheep, I did not love the fold; I did not love my Shepherd’s voice, I would not be controlled. I was a wayward child, I did not love my home, I did not love my Father’s voice, I loved afar to roam. 2 The Shepherd sought His sheep, The Father sought His child; They followed me o’er vale and hill, O’er deserts waste and wild. They found me nigh to death, Famished and faint and lone; They bound me with the bands of love, They saved the wandering one. 3 Jesus my Shepherd is; ’Twas He that loved my soul, ’Twas He that washed me in His blood, ’Twas He that made me whole. ’Twas He that sought the lost, That found the wandering sheep; ’Twas He that brought me to the fold, ’Tis He that still doth keep. 4 No more a wandering sheep! I love to be controlled, I love my tender Shepherd’s voice, I love the peaceful fold. No more a wayward child! I seek no more to roam; I love my heavenly Father’s voice, I love, I love His home.

I love Thee for wearing the thorns on Thy brow; If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now. 3 I'll love Thee in life, I will love Thee in death, And praise Thee as long as Thou lendest me breath; And say, when the death-dew lies cold on my brow: If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now. 4 In mansions of glory and endless delight, I'll ever adore Thee in heaven so bright; I'll sing with the glittering crown on my brow: If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now.

Jesus, I My Cross Have Taken

Author: Rev. Henry F. Lyte Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #440 (1934) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Profession of Faith Lyrics: 1 Jesus, I my cross have taken, All to leave, and follow Thee; Destitute, despised, forsaken, Thou, from hence, my all shalt be. Perish every fond ambition, All I've sought and hoped and known; Yet how rich is my condition: God and heaven are still my own. 2 Let the world despise and leave me, They have left my Savior, too; Human hearts and looks deceive me; Thou art not, like man, untrue; And, while Thou shalt smile upon me, God of wisdom, love, and might, Foes may hate, and friends may shun me; Show Thy face, and all is bright. 3 Man may trouble and distress me, 'Twill but drive me to Thy breast; Life with trials hard may press me, Heaven will bring me sweeter rest. O 'tis not in grief to harm me, While Thy love is left to me; O 'twere not in joy to charm me, Were that joy unmixed with Thee. 4 Haste, then, on from grace to glory, Armed by faith, and winged by prayer; Heaven's eternal day's before thee, God's own hand shall guide thee there. Soon shall close thy earthly mission; Swift shall pass thy pilgrim days; Hope shall change to glad fruition, Faith to sight, and prayer to praise. Languages: English Tune Title: GREENVILLE

Ashamed of Thee, whom angels praise, Whose glories shine through endless days? 2 Ashamed of Jesus! sooner far Let evening blush to own a star; He sheds the beams of light divine O'er this benighted soul of mine. 3 Ashamed of Jesus! just as soon Let midnight be ashamed of noon; 'Tis midnight with my soul till He, Bright, Morning Star, bid darkness flee. 4 Ashamed of Jesus! that dear Friend On whom my hopes of heaven depend! No; when I blush, be this my shame, That I no more revere His Name. Languages: English Tune Title: FEDERAL STREET
