The Eternal Rock

Hymnal: HSS1889 #49 (1889) First Line: When wildly beat the storms of life Refrain First Line: Rock of Ages, cleft for me Lyrics: 1 When wildly beat the storms of life, And heavy is the chast’ning rod, The soul beyond the waves of strife, Views the Eternal Rock, her God. Refrain: “Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee;” My spirit rests in holy calm, The Rock doth shelter me. 2 What hope dispels the spirit’s gloom, When sinking ‘neath affliction’s shock? Faith, thro’ the vista of the tomb, Points to the everlasting Rock. [Refrain] 3 Hope, Grace, and Truth, with gentle hand, Shall lead a bleeding Saviour’s flock, And show them, in the promised land, The shelter of th’Eternal Rock. [Refrain] Tune Title: [When wildly beat the storms of life]

There Is a Friend We Often Miss

Hymnal: HSS1889 #50 (1889) Refrain First Line: Jesus, I would know Thee Lyrics: 1 There is a Friend we often miss, E’en ‘mid the light of day; And none so near ‘mid grief or bliss— Yet none so far away. We often look, yet do not see, And hear but will not heed; So stumble on in mystery, And wonder none doth lead. Refrain: Jesus, I would know Thee, Trust Thee more and more; Give me grace, and guard me Till life’s cares are o’er. 2 This Friend draws near, with loving stroke, His own sweet peace to give, To heal the heart which spurned His yoke, And bid its hope to live. The orphaned soul, like little bird, Begins to build its nest; ‘Mid God’s own glory, undisturbed, Finds its true home and rest. [Refrain] 3 This Friend once found, we find love’s store, And pure, unfailing light, When beauty blossoms evermore With ever fresh delight. True peace here shows her smiling face, And hope which never dies, Sweet sympathy, with tender grace, And joy while sorrow flies. [Refrain] 4 But ‘tis not art dispels this night, Our tongues in sorrow sings: Christ is not seen thro’ reason’s light, Or tears which genius brings; Upon the lowly, broken heart His face will only shine; The light and love of Heav’n impart; Thus show that all is Thine. [Refrain] Tune Title: [There is a Friend we often miss]

Jesus First and Last

Author: Thomas MacKellar Hymnal: HSS1889 #53 (1889) First Line: Jesus! when my soul is parting Lyrics: 1 Jesus! when my soul is parting From this body frail and weak, And the deathly dew is starting Down this pale and wasted cheek,— Thine, my Saviour, Be the name I last shall speak, Be the name I last shall speak. 2 Jesus! when my mem’ry wanders Far from loved ones at my side, And in fitful dreaming ponders Who are they that near me glide,— Last, my Saviour, Let my tho’ts on Thee abide, Let my tho’ts on Thee abide. 3 When the morn in all its glory Charms no more mine ear or eye, And the shadows closing o’er me Warn me of the time to die,— Last, my Saviour, Let me see Thee standing by, Let me see Thee standing by. 4 When my feet shall pass the river, And upon the farther shore I shall walk, redeem’d forever, Ne’er to sin—to die no more,— First, Lord Jesus! Let me see Thee, and adore, Let me see Thee, and adore. Tune Title: [Jesus! when my soul is parting]
