Just As I Am Written By Charlotte Elliott

Jan

A beloved invitation hymn expressing honest surrender and trust in the mercy of Christ.

Just as I am without one plea
But that Thy blood was shed for me
And that Thou biddst me come to Thee
O Lamb of God I come I come

Just as I am and waiting not
To rid my soul of one dark blot
To Thee whose blood can cleanse each spot
O Lamb of God I come I come

Just as I am though tossed about
With many a conflict many a doubt
Fightings and fears within without
O Lamb of God I come I come

Just as I am Thou wilt receive
Wilt welcome pardon cleanse relieve
Because Thy promise I believe
O Lamb of God I come I come

Jan

A triumphant hymn celebrating the kingship resurrection and eternal reign of Christ.

Crown Him with many crowns
The Lamb upon His throne
Hark how the heavenly anthem drowns
All music but its own

Awake my soul and sing
Of Him who died for thee
And hail Him as thy matchless King
Through all eternity

Crown Him the Lord of love
Behold His hands and side
Rich wounds yet visible above
In beauty glorified

Crown Him the Lord of life
Who triumphed oer the grave
Who rose victorious in the strife
For those He came to save

Jan

A devotional hymn offering every part of life to the service and glory of God.

Take my life and let it be
Consecrated Lord to Thee
Take my moments and my days
Let them flow in ceaseless praise

Take my hands and let them move
At the impulse of Thy love
Take my feet and let them be
Swift and beautiful for Thee

Take my voice and let me sing
Always only for my King
Take my lips and let them be
Filled with messages from Thee

Take my silver and my gold
Not a mite would I withhold
Take my intellect and use
Every power as Thou shalt choose

Take my will and make it Thine
It shall be no longer mine
Take my heart it is Thine own
It shall be Thy royal throne

Pure and spotless let us be
Let us see Thy great salvation
Perfectly restored in Thee

Guide Me O Thou Great Jehovah Written By William Williams
29
Jan

A powerful Welsh hymn expressing trust in God as guide protector and provider.

Guide me O Thou great Jehovah
Pilgrim through this barren land
I am weak but Thou art mighty
Hold me with Thy powerful hand

Bread of heaven bread of heaven
Feed me till I want no more
Feed me till I want no more

Open now the crystal fountain
Whence the healing stream doth flow
Let the fire and cloudy pillar
Lead me all my journey through

Strong Deliverer strong Deliverer
Be Thou still my strength and shield
Be Thou still my strength and shield

When I tread the verge of Jordan
Bid my anxious fears subside
Death of deaths and hells destruction
Land me safe on Canaans side

Songs of praises songs of praises
I will ever give to Thee
I will ever give to Thee

Fairest Lord Jesus Ruler of all nature
O Thou of God and man the Son
Thee will I cherish Thee will I honor
Thou my souls glory joy and crown

Fair are the meadows fairer still the woodlands
Robed in the blooming garb of spring
Jesus is fairer Jesus is purer
Who makes the woeful heart to sing

Fair is the sunshine fairer still the moonlight
And all the twinkling starry host
Jesus shines brighter Jesus shines purer
Than all the angels heaven can boast

Abide With Me Written By Henry Francis Lyte

Jan

A gentle evening hymn asking for Gods abiding presence through change, sorrow, and death.

Abide with me fast falls the eventide
The darkness deepens Lord with me abide
When other helpers fail and comforts flee
Help of the helpless O abide with me

Swift to its close ebbs out lifes little day
Earths joys grow dim its glories pass away
Change and decay in all around I see
O Thou who changest not abide with me

I need Thy presence every passing hour
What but Thy grace can foil the tempters power
Who like Thyself my guide and stay can be
Through cloud and sunshine O abide with me

I fear no foe with Thee at hand to bless
Ills have no weight and tears no bitterness
Where is deaths sting where grave thy victory
I triumph still if Thou abide with me

Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer to Thee
Een though it be a cross
That raiseth me
Still all my song shall be
Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer to Thee

Though like the wanderer
The sun gone down
Darkness be over me
My rest a stone
Yet in my dreams Id be
Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer to Thee

There let the way appear
Steps unto heaven
All that Thou sendest me
In mercy given
Angels to beckon me
Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer to Thee

Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow
Blessings all mine with ten thousand beside

It Is Well With My Soul Written By Horatio Spafford
29
Jan

A powerful hymn written in grief yet overflowing with confidence in Christ and eternal hope.

When peace like a river attendeth my way
When sorrows like sea billows roll
Whatever my lot Thou hast taught me to say
It is well it is well with my soul

It is well with my soul
It is well it is well with my soul

Though Satan should buffet though trials should come
Let this blest assurance control
That Christ hath regarded my helpless estate
And hath shed His own blood for my soul

My sin O the bliss of this glorious thought
My sin not in part but the whole
Is nailed to the cross and I bear it no more
Praise the Lord praise the Lord O my soul

And Lord haste the day when the faith shall be sight
The clouds be rolled back as a scroll
The trump shall resound and the Lord shall descend
Even so it is well with my soul
