Joyfully, joyfully, onward I move
Author: William Hunter Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #619 (1886) Topics: The Christian Warfare and Pilgrimage Lyrics: 1 Joyfully, joyfully, onward I move,
Bound for the land of bright glory above;
Angelic choristers sing as I come,
"Joyfully, joyfully, haste to thy home."
Soon shall I pass from this dark vale of woe,
Home to the land of the righteous I'll go;
Pilgrim and stranger, no more shall I roam,
Joyfully, joyfully, resting at home.
2 Friends fondly cherished now sleep in the ground,
But they'll awake when the last trump shall sound,
Loosed from Death's fetters, and upward we'll soar,
Joyfully meeting to part nevermore.
Sounds of sweet melody fall on the ear;
Harps of the blessed, your voices I'll hear
Filling with harmony heaven's high dome,
"Joyfully, joyfully, haste to thy home."
3 Death with his weapons of war has laid low
Many a pilgrim who feared not the blow;
Jesus has broken the bars of the tomb;
Joyfully, joyfully, will they come home.
Bright will the morn of eternity dawn,
Death shall be banished, his scepter be gone;
Joyfully, then, shall I witness his doom,
Joyfully, joyfully, safely at home. Tune Title: HERE IS NO REST
Joyfully, joyfully, onward I move

When the day of toil is done
Forward! be our watchword
Author: Henry Alford, 1810-71 Hymnal: The Methodist Hymn-Book with Tunes #619 (1933) Topics: The Christian Life Pilgrimage, Guidance, Perseverance Languages: English Tune Title: FORWARD! BE OUR WATCHWORD
Forward! be our watchword
Lonely and weary, by sorrow oppressed
Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #620 (1886) Topics: The Christian Warfare and Pilgrimage Lyrics: 1 Lonely and weary, by sorrow oppressed,
Onward we hasten with longings for rest,
Bidding adieu to the world with its pride,
Longing to stand by Immanuel's side
Though we are pilgrims, before us now rise
Visions of glory rejoicing our eyes.
Bright are the crowns that we hope soon to wear,
Blessed the rest; O we long to be there.
2 There is the city in splendor sublime;
O, how its turrets and battlements shine!
Pearls are its portals, surpassingly bright,
Jasper its walls, and the Lamb is its light.
Pathways of gold that blest city adorn,
Glittering with glory far brighter than morn;
Angels stand beck'ning us onward to share
Glory unfading; we long to be there.
3 Rivers are gliding 'mid unfading trees,
Songs of the ransomed are borne on the breeze;
Glory-gilt mountains resplendent are seen,
Valleys and hills clad in Eden-like green;
There shall be glory of God ever be,
Filling the earth as the waves fill the sea;
There shall the ransomed, immortal and fair,
Evermore dwell; O, we long to be there. Tune Title: TRIUMPH
Lonely and weary, by sorrow oppressed
Who would true valour see
Author: John Bunyan, 1628-88 Hymnal: The Methodist Hymn-Book with Tunes #620 (1933) Meter: 6.5.6.5.6.6.6.5 Topics: The Christian Life Pilgrimage, Guidance, Perseverance Languages: English Tune Title: MONKS GATE
Who would true valour see
Through this dark valley of conflict and sin
Author: Annie R. Smith Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #621 (1886) Topics: The Christian Warfare and Pilgrimage Lyrics: 1 Through this dark valley of conflict and sin,
Trials without and temptations within,
Onward to glory, still urge thy lone way,
Joyful in hope of the long-promised day.
In every danger thou hast a sure Guide,
To every cloud there is yet a bright side;
Falter then not at the sternest behest,
Ever remember 'tis all for the best.
2 Just as the eagle, in teaching to fly,
Forceth her young from their covert so high;
Then if strength faileth, beneath them she flies,
On her wings beareth them safe to the skies;
So will the arm of Jehovah uphold:
In each affliction his mercies unfold;
Murmur then not that he stirreth thy nest,
Ever remember 'tis all for the best.
3 Never of Providence dare to complain,
Sunshine and storm both must ripen the grain;
Tried is the gold that the purest will shine,
Crushed is the vintage that yieldeth the wine.
He who the end from beginning can tell,
Works for thy good, for he doeth all well:
This, that prepares for the mansions of rest,
Ever remember 'tis all for the best. Tune Title: TRIUMPH
Through this dark valley of conflict and sin
Jesus the good Shepherd is
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-88 Hymnal: The Methodist Hymn-Book with Tunes #621 (1933) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Topics: The Christian Life Pilgrimage, Guidance, Perseverance Languages: English Tune Title: BREAD OF HEAVEN
Jesus the good Shepherd is
Cheer up, ye soldiers of the cross
Author: R. F. Cottrell Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #622 (1886) Topics: The Christian Warfare and Pilgrimage Lyrics: 1 Cheer up, ye soldiers of the cross;
The moment soon will come
When you shall lay your armor off,
And reach your blissful home.
The pearly gates will wide unfold
Before our conquering King,
And entering hosts, with harps of gold,
Triumphantly shall sing.
2 What though the warfare be severe,
And enemies be strong;
And painful watchings, dark and drear,
The tedious night prolong;
Our Captain passed this way before,
And felt each cruel sting:
Courage! the strife will soon be o'er,
And then with joy we'll sing.
3 Many a soldier in this strife,
Has nobly bled and died,
Counting it joy to give his life
For Him once crucified.
And when our Captain comes again,
Those from the dead he'll bring;
And they with us, and we with them,
Triumphantly will sing.
4 O, 'twill be joy, but to behold
That glad immortal throng
Enter and walk the streets of gold,
And sing the victor's song!
To see that host and hear that song,
Must joy ecstatic bring;
But those who will may join that throng,
With them you too may sing. Tune Title: COURAGE
Cheer up, ye soldiers of the cross
Show me the way, O Lord
Author: Jane Euphemia Saxby, 1811-98 Hymnal: The Methodist Hymn-Book with Tunes #622 (1933) Meter: 6.4.6.4.10.10 Topics: The Christian Life Pilgrimage, Guidance, Perseverance Languages: English Tune Title: CORDS OF LOVE
Show me the way, O Lord
As through this changing world we roam
Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #623 (1886) Topics: The Christian Warfare and Pilgrimage Lyrics: 1 As through this changing world we roam
From infancy to age,
Heaven is the Christian pilgrim's home,
His rest at every stage;
Thither his raptured thoughts ascend,
Eternal joys to share;
There his adoring spirit bends,
While here he kneels in prayer.
2 From earth his freed affections rise
To fix on things above,
Where all his hope of glory lies,
And love is perfect love;
Ah! there may we our treasure place,
There let our hearts be found,
That sill where sin abounded, grace
May more and more abound. Tune Title: COURAGE
As through this changing world we roam
