Brethren We Have Met To Worship

George Atkins, 1819

Verse 1
Brethren we have met to worship,
And adore the Lord our God;
Will you pray with all your power,
While we try to preach the Word?
All is vain unless the Spirit
Of the Holy One comes down
Brethren, pray, & holy manna
Will be showered all around.

Verse 2
[Sisters]
Brethren see poor sinners round you
Slumbering on the brink of woe;
Death is coming, hell is moving,
Can you bear to let them go?
See our fathers and our mothers
And our children sinking down!
Brethren, pray and holy manna
will be showered all around.

Verse 3
[Brothers]
Sisters, will you join and help us?
Moses’ sister aided him;
Will you help the trembling mourners
Who are struggling hard with sin?
Tell them all about the Savior
Tell them that He will be found!
Sisters, pray, and holy manna
Will be showered all around.

Verse 4
Let us love our God supremely,
Let us love each other, too;
Let us love and pray for sinners,
‘Till our God makes all things new.
Then He’ll call us home to Heaven
At His table we’ll sit down.
Christ will gird Himself and serve us
With sweet manna all around.

Begone Unbelief

John Newton and Kevin Twit

Verse 1
Begone, unbelief, my Savior is near
And for my relief will surely appear;
By prayer let me wrestle, and He will perform;
With Christ in the vessel, I smile at the storm
With Christ in the vessel, I smile at the storm

Verse 2

Though dark be my way, since He is my Guide,
‘Tis mine to obey, ’tis His to provide;
Though cisterns be broken, and creatures all fail,
The Word He hath spoken shall surely prevail.
The Word He hath spoken shall surely prevail.

Chorus
[Men]————————-[Ladies]
Begone unbelief,———-the Savior is here;
Begone unbelief,———the Savior is here;
Begone unbelief,———the Savior is here;

[Altogether]
Though cisterns be broken and creatures all fail,
The Word He has spoken will surely prevail;
The Word He has spoken will surely prevail.

Verse 3
His love in time past forbids me to think
He’ll leave me at last in trouble to sink:
Each sweet Ebenezer I have in review
Confirms His good pleasure to help me quite through.
Confirms His good pleasure to help me quite through.

Verse 4

Why should I complain of want or distress,
Temptation or pain? He told me no less;
The heirs of salvation, I know from His Word
Through much tribulation must follow their Lord.
Through much tribulation must follow their Lord.

Chorus
[Men]————————-[Ladies]
Begone unbelief,———-the Savior is here;
Begone unbelief,———the Savior is here;
Begone unbelief,———the Savior is here;

[Altogether]
Though cisterns be broken and creatures all fail,
The Word He has spoken will surely prevail;
The Word He has spoken will surely prevail.

Verse 5
How bitter that cup no heart can conceive,
Which He drank quite up, that sinners might live!
His way was much rougher and darker than mine;
Did Christ, my Lord, suffer and shall I repine?
Did Christ, my Lord, suffer and shall I repine?

Verse 6

Since all that I meet shall work for my good,
The bitter is sweet, the medicine,food;
Though painful at present, ’twill cease before long,
And then, oh, how pleasant the conqueror’s song!
And then, oh, how pleasant the conqueror’s song!

Chorus
[Men]————————-[Ladies]
Begone unbelief,———-the Savior is here;
Begone unbelief,———the Savior is here;
Begone unbelief,———the Savior is here;

[Altogether]
Though cisterns be broken and creatures all fail,
The Word He has spoken will surely prevail;
The Word He has spoken will surely prevail.
