Oh Rejoice In The Lord

Download
1937

By Ron Hamilton

Verse 1
God never moves without purpose or plan
When trying His servant and molding a man.
Give thanks to the LORD though your testing seems long;
In darkness He giveth a song.

Chorus
O Rejoice in the LORD
He makes no mistake,
He knoweth the end of each path that I take,
For when I am tried and purified,
I shall come forth as gold.

Verse 2
I could not see through the shadows ahead;
So I looked at the cross of my Savior instead.
I bowed to the will of the Master that day;
Then peace came and tears fled away.

Chorus
O Rejoice in the LORD
He makes no mistake,
He knoweth the end of each path that I take,
For when I am tried and purified,
I shall come forth as gold.

Verse 3
Now I can see testing comes from above;
God strengthens His children and purges in love.
My Father knows best, and I trust in His care;
Through purging more fruit I will bear.

Chorus
O Rejoice in the LORD
He makes no mistake,
He knoweth the end of each path that I take,
For when I am tried and purified,
I shall come forth as gold.

I Sought The Lord and Afterward I Knew

Download
658

Jean Ingelow, 1878

Verse 1
I sought the Lord, and afterward I knew
He moved my soul to seek him, seeking me.
It was not I that found, O Savior true,
No, I was found of thee.

Verse 2
Thou didst reach forth thy hand and mine enfold,
I walked and sank not on the storm-vexed sea.
‘Twas not so much that I on thee took hold
As thou, dear Lord, on me.

Verse 3
I find, I walk, I love, but, oh, the whole
Of love is but my answer, Lord, to thee!
For thou wert long beforehand with my soul,
Always thou lovedst me.

King of my life I crown thee now —
Thine shall the glory be;
Lest I forget thy thorn-crowned brow,
Lead me to Calvary.

Chorus
Lest I forget Gethsemane,
Lest I forget thine agony,
Lest I forget thy love for me,
Lead me to Calvary.

Show me the tomb where thou wast laid,
Tenderly mourned and wept;
Angels in robes of light arrayed
Guarded thee whilst thou slept.

Lest I forget Gethsemane,
Lest I forget thine agony,
Lest I forget thy love for me,
Lead me to Calvary.

Verse 3
Let me like Mary, thru the gloom,
Come with a gift to thee;
Show to me now the empty tomb —
Lead me to Calvary.

Lest I forget thine agony,
Lest I forget thy love for me,
Lead me to Calvary.

Verse 4
May I be willing, Lord, to bear
Daily my cross for thee;
Even thy cup of grief to share —
Thou hast borne all for me.

Chorus
Lest I forget Gethsemane,
Lest I forget thine agony,
Lest I forget thy love for me,
Lead me to Calvary.

Psalm 130 (From The Depths of Woe)

Download
602

Words: Martin Luther
Music: Christopher Miner

Verse 1
From the depths of woe I raise to Thee
The voice of lamentation;
Lord, turn a gracious ear to me
And hear my supplication;
If Thou iniquities dost mark,
Our secret sins and misdeeds dark,

Chorus
(Men:) O who shall stand before Thee?
     (Women:) Who shall stand before Thee?
(Men:) O who shall stand before Thee?
    (Women:) Who shall stand before Thee?

Verse 2
To wash away the crimson stain,
Grace, grace alone availeth;
Our works, alas! Are all in vain;
In much the best life faileth;
No man can glory in Thy sight,
All must alike confess Thy might,

Chorus
(Men:) And live alone by mercy
    (women:) Live alone by mercy
(Men:) And live alone by mercy
    (Women:) Live alone by mercy

Verse 3
Therefore my trust is in the Lord,
And not in mine own merit;
On Him my soul shall rest, His word
Upholds my fainting spirit;
His promised mercy is my fort,
My comfort and my sweet support;

Chorus
(Men:) I wait for it with patience
    (Women:) Wait for it with patience
(Men:) I wait for it with patience
    (Women:) Wait for it with patience

Verse 4
What though I wait the live-long night,
Until the dawn appeareth,
My heart still trusteth in His might;
It doubteth not nor feareth;
Do thus, O ye of Israel’s seed,
Ye of the Spirit born indeed;

Chorus
(Men:) And wait ’til God appeareth
    (Women:) Wait ’til God appeareth
(Men:) And wait ’til God appeareth
    (Women) Wait ’til God appeareth

Verse 5
Though great our sins and sore our woes
His grace much more aboundeth;
His helping love no limit knows,
Our upmost need it soundeth.
Our Shepherd good and true is He,
Who will at last His children free

Chorus
(Men:) From all their sin and sorrow
    (Women:) All their sin and sorrow
(Men:) From all their sin and sorrow
    (Women:) All their sin and sorrow

And have sorrow in my heart all the day?

Because He has dealt bountifully with me!

In Heavenly Love Abiding

Download
775

Words: Anna L. Waring 1850

Verse 1
In heav’nly love abiding,
No change my heart shall fear;
And safe is such confiding,
For nothing changes here.
For nothing changes here.
The storm may roar about me,
My heart may low be laid,
But God is round about me,
And can I be dismayed?
And can I be dismayed?

Verse 2
Wherever He may guide me,
No want shall turn me back;
My Shepherd is beside me,
And nothing can I lack.
And nothing can I lack.
His wisdom ever waketh,
His sight is never dim;
He knows the way He taketh,
And I will walk with Him.
And I will walk with Him.

Verse 3
Green pastures are before me,
Which I have yet not seen;
Bright skies will soon be o’er me,
Where darkest clouds have been.
Where darkest clouds have been.
My hope I cannot measure,
My path to life is free;
My Savior is my treasure,
And He will walk with me.
And He will walk with me.
