Am I a soldier of the Cross

Hymnal: HPEC1871 #471 (1871) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Am I a soldier of the Cross, A follower of the Lamb? And shall I fear to own His cause, Or blush to speak His Name? 2 Must I be carried to the skies On flowery beds of ease, While others fought to win the prize, And sailed through bloody seas? 3 Are there no foes for me to face? Must I not stem the flood? Is this vile world a friend to grace, To help me on to God? 4 Sure I must fight if I would reign; Increase my courage, Lord; I'll bear the cross, endure the pain, Supported by Thy word. 5 Thy saints, in all this glorious war, Shall conquer, though they die; They view the triumph from afar, And seize it with their eye. 6 When that illustrious day shall rise, And all Thy armies shine In robes of victory through the skies, The glory shall be Thine.

Breast the wave Christian

Hymnal: HPEC1871 #472 (1871) Meter: Irregular Lyrics: 1 Breast the wave, Christian, When it is strongest; Watch for day, Christian, When the night's longest; Onward and onward still Be Thine endeavour; The rest that remaineth Will be for ever. 2 Fight the fight, Christian, Jesus is o'er thee; Run the race, Christian, Heaven is before thee; He Who hath promised Faltereth never; He Who hath loved so well, Loveth for ever. 3 Lift thine eye, Christian, Just as it closeth; Raise thy heart, Christian, Ere it reposeth; Thee from the love of Christ Nothing shall sever; And, when thy work is done, Praise Him for ever.

O God of Bethel, by Whose hand

Hymnal: HPEC1871 #473 (1871) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O God of Bethel, by Whose hand Thy people still are fed; Who through this weary pilgrimage Hast all our fathers led: 2 Our vows, our prayers, we now present Before Thy throne of grace: God of our fathers, be the God Of their succeeding race. 3 Through each perplexing path of life Our wandering footsteps guide; Give us each day our daily bread, And raiment fit provide. 4 O spread thy covering wings around, Till all our wanderings cease, And at our Father’s loved abode Our souls arrive in peace. 5 Such blessings from Thy gracious hand Our humble prayers implore; And Thou shalt be our chosen God, Our portion evermore.

A charge to keep I have

Hymnal: HPEC1871 #474 (1871) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 A charge to keep I have, A God to glorify! A never-dying soul to save, And fit it for the sky; 2 From youth to hoary age, My calling to fulfil; O may it all my powers engage To do my Master's will. 3 Arm me with jealous care, As in Thy sight to live; And, O Thy servant, Lord, prepare A strict account to give. 4 Help me to watch and pray, And on Thyself rely; Assured, if I my trust betray, I shall for ever die.

Supreme in wisdom as in power

Hymnal: HPEC1871 #475 (1871) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Supreme in wisdom as in power The Rock of Ages stands; Though canst not search His mind, nor trace The working of His hands. 2 He gives the conquest to the weak, Supports the fainting heart; And courage in the evil hour His heavenly aids impart. 3 Mere human energy shall faint, And youthful vigor cease; But those who wait upon the Lord In strength shall still increase. 4 They, with unwearied step, shall tread The path of life divine: With growing ardour onward move, With growing brightness shine. 5 On eagles' wings they mount, they soar On wings of faith and love; Till, past the sphere of earth and sin, They rise to heaven above.

Oft in danger, oft in woe

Hymnal: HPEC1871 #477 (1871) Lyrics: 1 Oft in danger, oft in woe, Onward, Christians, onward go: Fight the fight, maintain the strife, Strengthened with the bread of Life. 2 Onward, Christians, onward go. Join the war, and face the foe: Will ye flee in danger's hour? Know ye not your Captain's power? 3 Let your drooping hearts be glad: March in heavenly armor clad: Fight, nor think the battle long, Victory soon shall tune your song. 4 Let not sorrow dim your eye, Soon shall every tear be dry; Let not fears your course impede, Great your strength, if great your need. 5 Onward then to battle move, More than conquerors ye shall prove: Though opposed by many a foe, Christian soldiers, onward go.

Since I've known a Saviour's name

Hymnal: HPEC1871 #478 (1871) Meter: Irregular Lyrics: 1 Since I've known a Saviour's Name And sin's strong fetters broke, Careful without care I am, Nor feel my easy yoke: Joyful now my faith to show, I find His service my reward, All the work I do below Is light, for such a Lord. 2 To the desert or the cell Let others blindly fly, In this evil world I dwell, Nor fear its enmity; Here I find a house of prayer, To which I inwardly retire; Walking unconcerned in care, And unconsumed in fire. 3 O that all the world might know Of living, Lord, to Thee, Find their heaven begun below, And here Thy goodness see; Walk in all the works prepared By Thee to exercise their grace, Till they gain their full reward, And see Thee face to face!

Jesus, Thy blood and righteousness

Hymnal: HPEC1871 #480 (1871) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thy blood and righteousness My beauty are, my glorious dress, 'Midst flaming worlds, in these array'd, With joy shall I lift up my head. 2 Bold shall I stand in Thy great day, For who aught to my charge shall lay? Fully absolved through these I am, From sin and fear, from guilt and shame. 3 When from the dust of death I rise To claim my mansion in the skies, E'en then this shall be all my plea-- Jesus hath lived, hath died for me. 4 Thou God of power, Thou God of love, Let the whole world Thy mercy prove; Now let Thy word o'er all prevail; Now take the spoils of death and hell.
