Martyr-faith

Author: Moravian Hymnal: Laudes Domini #325 (1890) Topics: Christian Experience First Line: Glory to God! whose witness-train Lyrics: 1 Glory to God! whose witness-train, Those heroes bold in faith, Could smile on poverty and pain, And triumph ev'n in death. 2 Oh, may that faith our hearts sustain, Wherein they fearless stood, When, in the power of cruel men, They poured their willing blood. 3 God whom we serve, our God, can save, Can damp the scorching flame, Can build an ark, can smooth the wave, For such as love his name. 4 Lord! if thine arm support us still With its eternal strength, We shall o'ercome the mightiest ill, And conquerors prove at length.

Our salvation near

Author: A. M. Toplady Hymnal: Laudes Domini #329 (1890) Topics: Christian Experience First Line: Your harps, ye trembling saints Lyrics: 1 Your harps, ye trembling saints, Down from the willows take: Loud to the praise of love divine Bid every string awake. 2 Though in a foreign land, We are not far from home; And nearer to our house above We every moment come. 3 His grace will to the end Stronger and brighter shine; Nor present things, nor things to come, Shall quench the spark divine. 4 When we in darkness walk, Nor feel the heavenly flame, Then is the time to trust our God, And rest upon his name. 5 Soon shall our doubts and fears Subside at his control; His loving-kindness shall break through The midnight of the soul. 6 Blest is the man, O God, Who stays himself on thee; Who waits for thy salvation, Lord, Shall thy salvation see.

"Fear Not"

Author: George Keith Hymnal: Laudes Domini #335 (1890) Topics: Christian Experience First Line: How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord! Lyrics: 1 How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord! Is laid for your faith in his excellent word! What more can he say, than to you he hath said, To you, who for refuge to Jesus have fled? 2 "Fear not, I am with thee, oh, be not dismayed, For I am thy God, I will still give thee aid; I'll strengthen thee, help thee, and cause thee to stand, Upheld by my gracious, omnipotent hand. 3 "When through the deep waters I call thee to go, The rivers of sorrow shall not overflow; For I will be with thee thy trouble to bless, And sanctify to thee thy deepest distress. 4 "When through fiery trials thy pathway shall lie, My grace, all-sufficient, shall be thy supply; The flame shall not hurt thee; I only design Thy dross to consume, and thy gold to refine. 5 "Ev'n down to old age all my people Shall prove My sovereign, eternal unchangeable love; And then, when gray hairs shall their temples adorn, Like lambs they shall still in my bosom be borne. 6 "The soul that on Jesus hath leaned for repose, I will not--I will not desert to his foes; That soul--though all hell should endeavor to shake, I'll never no never no never forsake!"

Our Master

"In his feet and hands are wound-prints, And his side." 3 Is there diadem, as Monarch, That his brow adorns? "Yes, a crown, in very surety; But of thorns." 4 If I find him, if I follow, What his guerdon here? "Many a sorrow, many a labor, Many a tear." 5 If I still hold closely to him, What hath he at last? "Sorrow vanquished, labor ended, Jordan passed." 6 If I ask him to receive me, Will he say me nay? "Not till earth, and not till heaven Pass away." 7 Finding, following, keeping, struggling, Is he sure to bless? "Saints, apostles, prophets, martyrs, Answer, Yes."

Never let me fear or shrink; Hold me, Father, lest I sink: Lead me on! 7 When the victory is won, And eternal life begun, Up to glory lead me on! Lead me on, lead me on!

Perfect peace

Author: Anna L. Waring Hymnal: Laudes Domini #347 (1890) Topics: Christian Experience First Line: In heavenly love abiding Lyrics: 1 In heavenly love abiding, No change my heart shall fear, And safe is such confiding, For nothing changes here: The storm may roar without me, My heart may low be laid, But God is round about me, And can I be dismayed? 2 Wherever he may guide me, No want shall turn me back; My Shepherd is beside me, And nothing can I lack: His wisdom ever waketh, His sight is never dim: He knows the way he taketh, And I will walk with him. 3 Green pastures are before me, Which yet I have not seen; Bright skies will soon be o'er me, Where darkest clouds have been: My hope I cannot measure; My path to life is free; My Saviour has my treasure, And he will walk with me.
