I've Found a Friend

Author: James G. Small Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #3136 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal First Line: I've found a Friend, O such a friend! Lyrics: 1. I’ve found a Friend, O such a friend! He loved me ere I knew Him; He drew me with the cords of love, and thus He bound me to Him; And round my heart still closely twine those ties which naught can sever, For I am His, and He is mine, forever and forever. 2. I’ve found a Friend, O such a friend! He bled, He died to save me; And not alone the gift of life, but His own Self He gave me! Naught that I have mine own I call, I’ll hold it for the Giver, My heart, my strength, my life, my all are His, and His forever. 3. I’ve found a Friend, O such a friend! All pow’r to Him is given, To guard me on my onward course, and bring me safe to heaven. The eternal glories gleam afar, to nerve my faint endeavor; So now to watch, to work, to war, and then to rest forever. 4. I’ve found a Friend, O such a friend! So kind and true and tender, So wise a Counselor and Guide, so mighty a Defender! From Him who loves me now so well what power my soul can sever? Shall life or death, shall earth or hell? No! I am His forever. Languages: English Tune Title: CONSTANCE (Sullivan)

My Grandfather's Bible

Author: Philip P. Bliss, 1838-1876 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #4418 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal First Line: The Sabbath day--sweet day of rest-- Lyrics: 1. The Sabbath day—sweet day of rest— Was drawing to a close; The summer breeze went murmuring by, To lull me to repose; I took my father’s Bible down— His father’s gift to him— A treasure rare, beyond compare, Though soiled the page, and dim. 2. Old friend, I said, if thou couldst tell, What would thy memories be? And from the Book there seemed to come This evening reverie: “Good will to men, Peace be to thee! My mission aye hath been, To tell the love of Him who died To save a world from sin. 3. “A hundred years ago I sailed, With those who sail no more, Through perils dread; by land and sea, I reached New England’s shore; There, on a soul-worn, faithful band This soothing psalm did fall: Lord, Thou hast been our dwelling place, In generations all. 4. “Year after year, in temples rude, Upon the desk I lay, To teach of Him, the great High Priest; The Life, the Truth, the Way. And multitudes who listened there To God’s life-giving word, Are resting from their labors now, ‘For ever with the Lord.’ 5. “Anon a lowly home I found, But love and peace were there… The children with the father read, And knelt with him in prayer; And through the valley, as one passed, I heard her sweetly sing: ‘O Grave, where is thy victory? O Death, where is thy sting?’ 6. Hold fast the faith, the old Book said; Thy father’s God adore…; And on the Rock of Ages rest The soul forever more. Amen, said I, by grace I will, Till at His feet we fall, And join the everlasting song, And crown Him Lord of all. We’ll join the everlasting song, And crown Him Lord of all.

Almighty Lord, Whose Sovereign Right

Author: Evelyn R. Hassé Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7988 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal Lyrics: 1 Almighty Lord, whose sovereign right Extends o’er every nation, We bless Thee for the Gospel light That brought to us salvation. And unto Thee we raise our prayer For all in darkness dwelling, That they with us Thy light may share, With us Thy praise be telling. 2 O, hear us as we call on Thee For all the truth possessing; That they may ever ready be To share the heavenly blessing. To send to earth’s remotest shore The gladdening Gospel story, That all the heathen may adore Jesus, the King of Glory. 3 As with Thine eyes, Lord, may we see The world in darkness lying; And may Thy love the motive be To save the lost, the dying. The precious harvest waiting lies, But few the workers number— O Church of Christ! arise! arise! Arouse thee from thy slumber! 4 Lord, Lord, the impulse must be Thine, Forgive our sloth, our dullness; O quicken us with life divine, With all Thy Spirit’s fullness. So may our love and faith increase. Our fervor and devotion; To speed the messengers of peace O’er every land and ocean. 5 There evermore be with them, Lord, And evermore befriend them; Be Thou their shield and great reward To succor and defend them. Prosper their faithful ministry, Till, in the day appointed, The kingdoms of the world shall be The realm of Thine Anointed. Languages: English Tune Title: CONSTANCE (Sullivan)
