Climb the steeps and cross the waves;
Onward! 'tis our Lord's command;

Echo back, ye ocean caves;
Earth shall keep her jubilee:

When the heart for mercy craves;
Sing in triumph o'er the tomb,
Jesus saves! Jesus saves!

Jesus saves! Jesus saves!
Let the nations now rejoice,
Jesus saves! Jesus saves!

Highest hills and deepest caves;

Why should the shadows come,
Why should my heart be lonely
And long for heaven and home,
When Jesus is my portion?
My constant friend is He:
His eye is on the sparrow,
And I know He watches me;
His eye is on the sparrow,
And I know He watches me.

I sing because I’m happy,
I sing because I’m free,
For His eye is on the sparrow,
And I know He watches me.
2 “Let not your heart be troubled,”
His tender word I hear,
And resting on His goodness,
I lose my doubts and fears;
Though by the path He leadeth,
But one step I may see:
His eye is on the sparrow,
And I know He watches me;
His eye is on the sparrow,
And I know He watches me. [Refrain]

Whenever clouds arise,
When songs give place to sighing,
When hope within me dies,
I draw the closer to Him,
From care He sets me free:
His eye is on the sparrow,
And I know He watches me;
His eye is on the sparrow,
And I know He watches me. [Refrain] Scripture: Matthew 10:29 Used With Tune: HIS EYE IS ON THE SPARROW

Thou Hidden Source of Calm Repose
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 166 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life Joy and Peace Lyrics: 1 Thou hidden source of calm repose,
Thou all sufficient love divine,
My help and refuge from my foes,
Secure I am while Thou art mine;
And lo! from sin, and grief, and shame,
I hide me, Jesus, in Thy name.
2 Thy mighty name salvation is,
And keeps my happy soul above.
Comfort it brings, and power, and peace,
And joy, and everlasting love.
To me, with Thy great name, are given
Pardon, and holiness and heaven.
3 Jesus, my all in all Thou art;
My rest in toil, my ease in pain;
The healing of my broken heart,
In war my peace, in loss my gain;
My smile beneath the tyrant’s frown;
In shame my glory and my crown.
4 In want my plentiful supply,
In weakness my almighty power;
In bonds my perfect liberty,
My light in Satan’s darkest hour;
In grief my joy unspeakable,
My life in death, my all-in-all.
Amen. Scripture: 1 Peter 1:8 Used With Tune: ST. PETERSBURG

As with gladness men of old
Appears in 637 hymnals Topics: Christian Joy 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 God, 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 heaven and earth adore:
So may we with willing feet
Ever seek Thy 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 dearest treasures bring,
Christ, to Thee our heavenly King.
4 Holy Jesus! every 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. Used With Tune: PEACE IN CHRIST

Shield us through our earthly strife;
Thou, the Life, the Truth, the Way,
Guide us to the realms of day.
3 Thine forever! Oh, how blest
They who find in Thee their rest;
Saviour, Guardian, heavenly Friend,
Oh, defend us to the end.
4 Thine forever! Thou our Guide,
All our wants by Thee supplied,
All our sins by Thee forgiven,
Lead us, Lord, from earth to heaven.

2 E’er since the world began to be,
How many a heart hath longed for Thee!
And Thou, O long expected Guest,
Hast come at last to make us blest!
3 Now art Thou here: we know Thee now;
In lowly manger liest Thou:
A child, yet makest all things great;
Poor, yet the earth Thy robe of state.
4 Now fearless I can look on Thee:
From sin and grief Thou set'st me free:
Thou bearest wrath, Thou conquerest death,
Fear turns to joy Thy glance beneath.
5 Thou art my Head, my Lord divine:
I am Thy member, wholly Thine;
And in Thy Spirit’s strength would still
Serve Thee according to Thy will.
6 Thus will I sing Thy praises here,
With joyful spirit year by year:
And they shall sound before Thy throne,
Where time nor number more is known. Used With Tune: THE OLD HUNDREDTH
