In the hour of trial

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: HPAG1933 #255b (1950) Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Lyrics: 1 In the hour of trial, Jesus, plead for me; Lest by base denial I depart from Thee; When Thou seest me waver, With a look recall, Nor for fear or favor Suffer me to fall. 2 With its witching pleasures Would this vain world charm, Or its sordid treasures Spread to work me harm, Bring to my remembrance Sad Gethsemane, Or, in darker semblance, Cross-crowned Calvary. 3 When in dust and ashes To the grave I sink, While heaven's glory flashes O'er the shelving brink, On Thy truth relying Through that mortal strife, Lord, receive me, dying, To eternal life. Amen. Topics: The Life in Christ Prayer and Intercession; Christ Advocate; Conflict With Sin; Intercession; Prayer and Intercession Tune Title: PENITENCE (LANE)

Christian, dost thou see them

Author: Rev. John M. Neale; St. Andrew of Crete (660-732) Hymnal: HPAG1933 #275 (1950) Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Lyrics: 1 Christian, dost thou see them On the holy ground, How the powers of darkness Rage thy steps around? Christian, up and smite them, Counting gain but loss, In the strength that cometh By the holy cross. 2 Christian, dost thou feel them, How they work within, Striving, tempting, luring, Goading into sin? Christian, never tremble; Never be downcast; Gird thee for the battle; Thou shalt win at last. 3 Christian, dost thou hear them, How they speak thee fair? "Always fast and vigil? Always watch and prayer?" Christian, answer boldly, "While I breathe I pray!" Peace shall follow battle, Night shall end in day. 4 "Well I know thy trouble, O My servant true, Thou art very weary— I was weary too; But that toil shall make thee Someday all Mine own, And the end of sorrow Shall be near My throne." Amen.

Far off I see the goal

Author: Rev. Robert Rowland Roberts Hymnal: HPAG1933 #183 (1950) Meter: 6.5.6.5.6.6.6.5 Lyrics: 1 Far off I see the goal— O Saviour, guide me; I feel my strength is small— Be Thou beside me; With vision ever clear, With love that conquers fear, And grace to persevere, O Lord, provide me. 2 Whene’er Thy way seems strange, Go Thou before me; And, lest my heart should change, O Lord, watch o’er me; But, should my faith prove frail, And I through blindness fail, O let Thy grace prevail, And still restore me. 3 Should earthly pleasures wane, And joy forsake me, And lonely hours of pain At length o’ertake me; My hand in Thine hold fast Till sorrow be o’erpast, And gentle death at last For heaven awake me. 4 There, with the ransomed throng Who praise forever The love that made them strong To serve forever, I, too, would seek Thy face, Thy finished work retrace, And magnify Thy grace, Redeemed forever.
