Count Your Mercies

Author: Flora Kirkland Hymnal: CSR1908 #524 (1908) First Line: Are you heavy laden and with sorrow tried? Refrain First Line: Count your mercies, such a boundless store Lyrics: 1 Are you heavy laden and with sorrow tried? Look to faith to Christ, your Helper, Friend, and Guide; Think of all your mercies, such a boundless store, Tears will change to praises as you count them o'er. Chorus: Count your mercies, such a boundless store, Count your mercies, pressed and running o'er, All your mercies, count them o'er and o'er, Lost in love and wonder at the boundless store. 2 Think of hidden dangers He has bro't you thro', Of the cares and burdens He has borne for you, Of His words of comfort in your deepest need, Count the times when Jesus proved a Friend indeed. [Chorus] 3 Does your pathway darken when the clouds draw near? Count your many mercies, dry the flowing tear; Trust Him in the shadows dim and have no fear; "Heav'n will be the sweeter for the dark down here." [Chorus] 4 As He looks from heaven down on you and me, Know you not He chooseth what each day shall be? Trust His loving wisdom, tho' the hot tears start, Give to Him the incense of a grateful heart.

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: CSR1908 #123 (1908) First Line: Arise, my soul, arise Lyrics: 1 Arise, my soul, arise, Shake off thy guilty fears; The bleeding Sacrifice In my behalf appears; Before the throne my Surety stands, Before the throne my Surety stands; My name is written on his hands. 2 He ever lives above, For me to intercede; His all redeeming love, His precious blood to plead; His blood was shed for all our race, His blood was shed for all our race, And sprinkles now the throne of grace. 3 Five bleeding wounds he bears, Received on Calvary; They pour effectual pray'rs, They strongly speak for me: "Forgive him, O, forgive!" they cry, "Forgive him, O, forgive!" they cry, "Nor let the contrite sinner die!" 4 The Father hears him pray, His dear, anointed One; He would not turn away The presence of his Son: His Spirit answers to the blood, His Spirit answers to the blood, And tells me I am born of God.

Author: Amos R. Wells Hymnal: CSR1908 #473 (1908) First Line: Around the world the chorus rings Lyrics: 1 Around the world the chorus rings, And hands are joined with hands; A Brotherhood of Service sings In all the happy lands; United sounds the watchword still That ever has sufficed; "The will, the will, the blessed will! The will of Jesus Christ!" 2 In crowded town or lonely plain, 'Mid many friends or few, With man's applause or man's disdain, To one allegiance true, That sole desire their hearts could fill, Tho' all the earth enticed; The will, the will, the precious will! The will of Jesus Christ!" 3 When proud Ambition gilds her goal, When Ease to slumber calls, When silken Mammon lures the soul To rainbow-tinted halls, The Brotherhood of Service still Exalts the Pearl unpriced; The will, the will, the holy will! The will of Jesus Christ!" 4 And when at last the golden years Have brought the crowning day, When toil and trial, pain and fears, Forever pass away, Upon the summit of the hill Is One that keepeth tryst; 'Tis He, the Will, the living Will! Our Master, Jesus Christ!" Topics: Service and Dependence; Living His Life Consecration; Living His Life Consecration Languages: English Tune Title: [Around the world the chorus rings]

As Pants the Hart

Author: Anon. Hymnal: CSR1908 #710 (1908) First Line: As pants the wearied hart for cooling springs Lyrics: 1 As pants the wearied hart for cooling springs, That sinks exhausted in the summer's chase, So pants my soul for thee, great King of kings, So thirsts to reach thy sacred dwelling place. 2 Lord, thy sure mercies, ever in my sight, My heart shall gladden thro' the tedious day; And 'midst the dark and gloomy shades of night, To thee, my God, I'll tune the grateful lay. 3 Why faint my soul? why doubt Jehovah's aid? Thy God the God of mercy still shall prove; Within his courts thy thanks shall yet be paid; Unquestioned be his faithfulness and love.

So May We

Author: Wm. C. Dix Hymnal: CSR1908 #267 (1908) First Line: As with gladness men of old Lyrics: 1 As with gladness men of old Did the guiding star behold; As with joy they hailed its light, Leading onward, beaming bright; So, most gracious Lord, may we Evermore be led to Thee. 2 As with joyful steps they sped To that lowly manger bed, There to bend the knee before Him whom heav'n and earth adore; So may we with willing feet Ever seek the mercy-seat. 3 As they offered gifts most rare At that manger rude and bare; So may we with holy joy, Pure, and free from sin's alloy, All our costliest treasures bring, Christ, to Thee, our heav'nly King. 4 Holy Jesus, ev'ry day Keep us in the narrow way; And, when earthly things are past, Bring our ransomed souls at last Where they need no star to guide, Where no clouds Thy glory hide.
