Waiting
Appears in 54 hymnals First Line: I am waiting by the river Lyrics: 1 I am waiting by the river,
And my heart has waited long;
Now I think I hear the chorus
Of the angel's welcome song:
Oh, I see the dawn is breaking
On the hilltops of the blest,
"Where the wicked cease from troubling,
And the weary are at rest."
2 Far away beyond the shadows,
Of this weary vale of tears;
There the tide of bliss is sweeping
Through the bright and changeless years.
Oh, I long to be with Jesus,
In the mansions of the blest,
"Where the wicked cease from troubling
And the weary are at rest."
3 They are launching on the river,
From the calm and quiet shore,
And they soon will bear my spirit,
Where the weary sigh no more;
For the tide is swiftly flowing,
And I long to greet the blest,
"Where the wicked cease from troubling.
And the weary are at rest. Used With Tune: WAITING

The Sweet Story
Appears in 863 hymnals First Line: I think, when I read that sweet story of old Lyrics: 1 I think, when I read that sweet story of old,
When Jesus was here among men,
How we called little children as lambs to his fold,
I should like to have been with them then.
2 I wish that his hands had been placed on my head,
That his arms had been thrown around me,
And that I might have seen his kind look, when he said,
"Let the little ones come unto me."
3 Yet still to his footstool in prayer I may go,
And ask for a share in his love;
And if I thus earnestly seek him below,
I shall seek him and hear him above--
4 In that beautiful place he has gone to prepare
For all who are washed and forgiv'n;
And many dear children are gathering there,
"For of such is the kingdom of heav'n."
4 I long for the joys of that glorious time,
The sweetest, and brightest, and best,
When the dear little children of every clime,
Shall crowd to his arms and be blest. Used With Tune: [I think, when I read that sweet story of old]

Of unseen things above,
Of Jesus and his glory,
Of Jesus and his; love;
Tell me the story simply,
As to a little child,
For I am weak and weary,
And helpless and defiled.
Chorus:
Tell me the old, old story,
Tell me the old, old story,
Tell me the old, old story,
Of Jesus and his love.
2 Tell me the story slowly,
That I may take it in--
That wonderful redemption,
God's remedy for sin.
Tell me the story often,
For I forget so soon;
The early dew of morning
Has passed away at noon. [Chorus]
3 Tell me the story softly,
With earnest tones, and grave;
Remember! I'm the sinner
Whom Jesus came to save.
Tell me that story always,
If you would really be,
In any time of trouble,
A comforter to me. [Chorus]
4 Tell me the same old story,
When you have cause to fear
That this world's empty glory
Is costing me too dear.
Yes, and when that world's glory
Is drawing on my soul,
Tell me the old, old story:
"Christ Jesus makes thee whole." [Chorus] Used With Tune: [Tell me the old, old story]
The old, old story
