On The Shores of Galilee

Author: Alice T. Criss Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7891 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: Oh! I love to think of Jesus Lyrics: 1 Oh! I love to think of Jesus, When I read the story o’er, How the Savior, worn and weary, Trod the Galilean shore; How He taught His loved disciples, As they walked beside the sea, In the sunshine of His presence, On the shores of Galilee. 2 Oh! I love to think of Jesus, As He journeyed day by day, Hand in hand with those who loved Him, In that land so far away, And the waters murmured softly As the sunlight kissed the sea, Oh! how sweet to walk with Jesus, On the shores of Galilee. 3 Oh! I love to think of Jesus, When the twilight shadows fall, And the shining stars of heaven Smile in beauty over all. Then I hear a sweet voice saying, Come, My child, come unto Me; I will ever walk beside you, On the shores of Galilee. Languages: English Tune Title: TUNGUSKA

Song Of The Aged Christian

Author: A. M. Johnson Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7934 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: Weary, worn, sad and forsaken Lyrics: 1 Weary, worn, sad and forsaken, Lingering on this cheerless shore; All life’s sweetest ties are broken, And my loved ones come no more. All my early friends have left me, In this lonesome vale of tears; Sighing for their smiling faces, Where they know no griefs or fears. 2 Throngs of youthful faces ’round me But remind me of the past When I held my dear departed To my bosom fondly clasped. But a few more tears and sorrows, And the fountain will be dry; Then I shall embrace my kindred In the happy home on high. 3 Blessèd hope, sweet balm of comfort, To this withered heart of mine; Light my path a little longer, With Thy beams of light divine; God of mercy, grace and goodness, Hold me by Thy powerful hand; Till I greet my loving kindred In the glorious heav’nly land.

Not Far From Heaven's Gate

Author: John H. Luther Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7977 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: Waiting, while I travel onward Lyrics: 1 Waiting, while I travel onward, For the pilgrim’s promised rest, For the crown and joy eternal, In the city of the blest. Earth, with all its pleasant voices, Cannot stay my toil-worn feet; Love the purest—hope the brightest— Hath no promise half so sweet. 2 Waiting till each cross that meets us Doth its office work of love; Making every burden lighter, Turning every thought above. Waiting, after nights of waking; After days of toil and pain, Leaving all my doubts forever, Counting all my losses gain. 3 Waiting, till the Bridegroom cometh, When the bride arrayed in white, Shall behold the worlds of glory Fashioned for the sons of light. Oh, the loved ones that will meet us, When we reach the other shore, Oh, the bright ones that will greet us, When the pilgrimage is o’er. 4 In the light of that fair country Ever falling on my way, Sorrows cast but feeble shadows, Night is joyous as the day. Thus my waiting only seemeth Like love’s vigil, full of trust, For I know ere long He cometh— He the lovely and the just. 5 Let me wait, then, ’mid the tempest, For the voice that whispers peace, Wait within the home of sorrow For the struggling soul’s release. Waiting—this is all life’s mission On the Prince of Life to wait, He who toils with patient waiting, Is not far from Heaven’s gate. Languages: English Tune Title: LA JOLLA

Hearts To Heaven And Voices Raise

Author: Christopher Wordsworth Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7985 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: Alleluia, alleluia! Lyrics: 1 Alleluia, alleluia! Hearts to Heaven and voices raise: Sing to God a hymn of gladness, sing to God a hymn of praise. He, who on the cross a Victim, for the world’s salvation bled, Jesus Christ, the King of glory, now is risen from the dead. 2 Now the iron bars are broken, Christ from death to life is born, Glorious life, and life immortal, on the holy Easter morn. Christ has triumphed, and we conquer by His mighty enterprise: We with Him to life eternal by His resurrection rise. 3 Christ is risen, Christ, the first fruits of the holy harvest field, Which will all its full abundance at His second coming yield: Then the golden ears of harvest will their heads before Him wave, Ripened by His glorious sunshine from the furrows of the grave. 4 Christ is risen, we are risen! Shed upon us heavenly grace, Rain and dew and gleams of glory from the brightness of Thy face; That we, with our hearts in Heaven, here on earth may fruitful be, And by angel hands be gathered, and be ever, Lord, with Thee. 5 Alleluia, alleluia! Glory be to God on high; Alleluia! to the Savior who has gained the victory; Alleluia! to the Spirit, fount of love and sanctity: Alleluia, alleluia! to the Triune Majesty.

Almighty Lord, Whose Sovereign Right

Author: Evelyn R. Hassé Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7988 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Almighty Lord, whose sovereign right Extends o’er every nation, We bless Thee for the Gospel light That brought to us salvation. And unto Thee we raise our prayer For all in darkness dwelling, That they with us Thy light may share, With us Thy praise be telling. 2 O, hear us as we call on Thee For all the truth possessing; That they may ever ready be To share the heavenly blessing. To send to earth’s remotest shore The gladdening Gospel story, That all the heathen may adore Jesus, the King of Glory. 3 As with Thine eyes, Lord, may we see The world in darkness lying; And may Thy love the motive be To save the lost, the dying. The precious harvest waiting lies, But few the workers number— O Church of Christ! arise! arise! Arouse thee from thy slumber! 4 Lord, Lord, the impulse must be Thine, Forgive our sloth, our dullness; O quicken us with life divine, With all Thy Spirit’s fullness. So may our love and faith increase. Our fervor and devotion; To speed the messengers of peace O’er every land and ocean. 5 There evermore be with them, Lord, And evermore befriend them; Be Thou their shield and great reward To succor and defend them. Prosper their faithful ministry, Till, in the day appointed, The kingdoms of the world shall be The realm of Thine Anointed. Languages: English Tune Title: CONSTANCE (Sullivan)

The Perishing Millions

Author: P. M. Johnson Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7996 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: In the lands of pagan darkness Refrain First Line: Millions calling; brother, listen Lyrics: 1 In the lands of pagan darkness, Millions perishing today; Knowing naught of Jesus’ goodness, Naught of Christ, the living way. Refrain: Millions calling; brother, listen— Rushing, sweeping on to hell; O’er the ocean let us hasten, Christ’s redeeming love to tell. 2 Millions there in heathen blindness, Going down to endless woe; Knowing naught of Jesus’ kindness, How He died, He loved them so. [Refrain] 3 Millions there in darkness pleading, Calling now to you and me, Brother, are you even heeding? Calling now they are to thee. [Refrain] 4 Millions there in darkness dying, Christ unknown, without a hope; Brother, they to you are crying, As they thro’ their darkness grope. [Refrain] 5 Millions there, great temples thronging, Seeking help of wood and stone; Brother, they for help are longing, Help that can for sin atone.

Tell Jesus

Author: Georgiana M. Taylor Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8003 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: When thou wakest in the morning Lyrics: 1 When thou wakest in the morning, Ere thou tread the untried way Of the lot that lies before thee, Thro’ the coming busy day; Whether sunbeams promise brightness, Whether dim forebodings fall, Be thy dawning glad or gloomy, Go to Jesus—tell Him all! 2 In the calm of sweet communion, Ere thy daily work be done; In the peace of soul outpouring, Care be banished, patience won; And if earth with its enchantments Seek thy spirit to enthrall, Ere thou listen—ere thou answer, Turn to Jesus—tell Him all! 3 Then, as hour by hour glides by thee, Thou wilt blessèd guidance know; Thine own burdens being lightened, Thou can’st bear another’s woe; Thou can’st help the weak ones onward, Thou can’st raise up those that fall; But remember, while thou servest, Still tell Jesus—tell Him all!

The Burden Of The Bells

Author: Ida S. Taylor Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8012 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: Oh! the Christmas bells are ringing Lyrics: 1 Oh! the Christmas bells are ringing, All the world is wide awake, And the chorus as it echoes Makes the mighty steeples shake. Miles away its tide is swelling, As if it would never cease, And the burden of its music Is a rolling wave of peace. 2 All the leafless branches, swinging, In the cold December air, Soft are breathing forth its cadence Like the murmur of a prayer; And they bend above each other With their wintry robes of fleece In a gentle benediction Breathing forth a hymn of peace. 3 So the pastor to his people, On this blessèd Christmas day, Gives a lesson full of meaning For each one to take away; And he gently bids the mourner, Who from grief would seek release, At the cross to drop his burden, Where the Savior giveth peace. 4 Lo! the cross is full of healing, And the crown is lying near With its wealth of jewels, gleaming, Like the sunlight of a tear. And today our hearts will gladden— May the echo never cease As we sing our love of Jesus Who will crown us with His peace. 5 "Peace on earth!" How dear the blessing As it comes from Heaven and here Drops its tenderness upon us At the closing of the year. So abiding in God’s keeping With the bells, our hearts will chime "Peace on earth!" Oh, gracious promise! "Peace on earth, at Christmas time." Languages: English Tune Title: FABEN

Under His Wings

Author: Annie Winthrow Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8041 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: Covered with feathers of mercy Lyrics: 1 Covered with feathers of mercy, Covered with feathers of love, Covered from all that might harm me, Safe till God calls me above. Under His wings I am trusting, Under His wings do I hide; Safe in this beautiful shadow Let me forever abide. 2 Here is my refuge and covert, Under the wings of my God; Here am I peacefully resting, Trusting His love and His rod. Under the wings of His healing, Under the wings of His might, Keep me forever, dear Savior, Sheltered by day and and by night. Languages: English Tune Title: KAIBAB
