Hela vägen går han med mig

Author: Fanny J. Crosby Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Hela vägen går han med mig, O, hvad kan jag önska mer? Kan jag tvifla på hans godhet, När jag på hans ledning ser? Himmelsk frid, gudomlig trygghet Uti hanom har min själ, Ty jag vet, hvad helst mig möter, Jesus gör dock alltid väl, Ty jag vet, hvad helst mig möter, Jesus gör dock alltid väl. 2 Hela vägen går han med mig, Är på farlig stig mitt stöd, Styrker mig i hvarje pröfning, Mättar mig med lifvets bröd. Och om hjärtat ville törsta, Vägen kännas tung och lång, Fröjde källor strax ur klippan Springa fram som förr en gång. Fröjde källor strax ur klippan Springa fram som förr en gång. 3 Hela vägen går han med mig, Hvilken kärlek, hög och rik; Och till sist en evig hvila Skänkes mig i himmelrik'. När jag där får, fri, förklarad, Böja mig vid tronen ned, Skall jag ej den sången glömma: hela vägen gick han med, Skall jag ej den sången glömma: Hela vägen gick han med.

Sin No More

Author: Charles C. McCabe Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 10 hymnals First Line: When did ever words so tender Lyrics: 1 When did ever words so tender Fall on mortal ears before, As the blessed words of Jesus— "Go thy way, and sin no more." Pardoned! oh, that word of rapture! As I knelt at mercy’s door, Burdened with my sin and sorrow "Go thy way, and sin no more." 2 Jesus spake, and then the power Of His great salvation came; All the bonds of sin were broken; Glory! glory! to His name. "Rise, forgiv’n, O child of sorrow; Rise, for lo! thy light hath come; Put thy beauteous garments on thee; Take thy staff, and journey home." 3 "I will know the way thou takest Till thou stand on Canaan’s shore; Never, never will I leave thee; Go thy way, and sin no more. From the world I will not take thee Till the battle strife is o’er; From its evil I will keep thee; Go thy way, and sin no more." 4 Oh, the fight! I’ve learned to love it, For the victory is mine; In the cross of Christ I glory, Triumphing in love divine. O the dawn of Heaven’s glory! O the day that has no night! O the sun that finds no zenith! O the host in raiment bright! 5 O, the King who dwells among them In His beauty I shall see; Heav’n shall ring with loud hosannas Unto Him who died for me. But, ’mid all the joys of Heaven, I will ne’er forget the hour When my Savior said, "Forgiven! Go thy way, and sin no more!" Used With Tune: GIGGLESWICK Text Sources: The Ark of Praise by John R.

The Last Appeal

Author: John E. Gould Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 18 hymnals First Line: Listen, sinner, will you listen Lyrics: 1 Listen, sinner, will you listen, While I make one more appeal? Would with tears your eyes might glisten! Would to God your heart might feel! You will, too, ere long be dying; Soon we’ll miss you from the earth, And your cold form will be lying ’Neath the greensward and the turf. 2 But the grave is not the ending, Sin will kill beyond the tomb: Oh, what awful horrors pending In those words, the "sinner’s doom!" God has traced it with His finger, Jesus said it should be so, "He who lives and dies a sinner Must endure eternal woe." 3 You have had the Bible warning, You have had the Spirit, too, Ever since life’s early morning, He has strove and plead with you. Many times the teardrop glistened, Many times your heart did melt; To the story you have listened, Of the pangs your Savior felt. 4 But the Bible you have slighted, And the Spirit turned away, And refused, tho’ oft invited To improve your gracious day; Oh, how hard your heart is getting! Oh, how sad your state today! Friend, your star of hope is setting, Haste to Christ without delay! Used With Tune: KODIAK Text Sources: Gospel Melodies (Cleveland: William R. Smellie, 1885)

Beauty, beauty all around us! Jubilate! Sing for joy! Help us, God, preserve earth’s splendor for tomorrow’s world to see. 2 Pure the water freshly flowing toward its ocean destiny, clean the air of God’s creation, rich the soil, the mine, the sea. "Earth is good!" God’s word proclaimed it. Jubilate! Sing for joy! Save us, God, from wasteful living, from pollution’s tragedy. 3 Waving fields of wheat and barley, giant apples juicy red, cattle grazing in the pasture; by God’s bounty we are fed! Well supplied the world around us! Jubilate! Sing for joy! May no greed or warring madness scorch the earth or rob our bread. 4 Keep us faithful in the struggle to conserve earth’s threatened store as we fight to save the forest, clean the stream, protect the shore. God and humans work together, Jubilate! Sing for joy! Partners working till as stewards we can say, "Earth’s good!" once more.
