Lord, it belongs not to my care

Author: R. Baxter Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #552 (1920) Topics: General Home and Personal Use Lyrics: 1 Lord, it belongs not to my care Whether I die or live; To love and serve Thee is my share, And this Thy grace must give. 2 If life be long, O make me glad The longer to obey; If short, no labourer is sad To end his toilsome day. 3 Christ leads me thro' no darker rooms Than He went through before; And he that to God's kingdom comes Must enter by this door. 4 Come, Lord, when grace hath made me meet Thy blessed face to see: For if Thy work on earth be sweet, What will Thy glory be? 5 Then I shall end my sad complaints And weary, sinful days, And join with the triumphant saints That sing my Saviour's praise. 6 My knowledge of that life is small, The eye of faith is dim; But 'tis enough that Christ knows all, And I shall be with Him.

On Jesus' bosom naught but calm is found. 4 Peace, perfect peace, with loved ones far away? In Jesus' keeping we are safe, and they. 5 Peace, perfect peace, our future all unknown? Jesus we know, and He is on the throne. 6 Peace, perfect peace, death shadowing us and ours? Jesus has vanquished death and all its powers. 7 It is enough: earth's struggles soon shall cease, And Jesus call us to heaven's perfect peace. Languages: English Tune Title: PAX TECUM

Come, ye disconsolate, where'er ye languish

Author: T. Moore Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #555 (1920) Topics: General Home and Personal Use Lyrics: 1 Come, ye disconsolate, where'er ye languish; Come to the mercy-seat, fervently kneel: Here bring your wounded hearts, here tell your anguish; Earth has no sorrow that heav'n cannot heal. 2 Joy of the desolate, light of the straying, Hope of the penitent, fadeless and pure, Here speaks the Comforter, tenderly saying, Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot cure. 3 Here see the Bread of life; see waters flowing Forth from the throne of God, pure from above; Come to the feast of love; come ever knowing Earth has no sorrow but heaven can remove.

For the day is passing by; See! the shades of evening gather, And the night is drawing nigh. 2 Deeper, deeper grow the shadows, Paler now the glowing west, Swift the night of death advances; Shall it be the night of rest? 3 Lonely seems the vale of shadow; Sinks my heart with troubled fear; Give me faith for clearer vision, Speak Thou, Lord, in words of cheer. 4 Let me hear Thy voice behind me, Calming all these wild alarms; Let me, underneath my weakness, Feel the everlasting arms. 5 Feeble, trembling, fainting, dying, Lord, I cast myself on Thee; Tarry with me through the darkness; While I sleep, still watch by me. 6 Tarry with me, O my Saviour! Lay my head upon Thy breast Till the morning; then awake me! Morning of eternal rest. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: [Tarry with me, O my Saviour]
