There Is a Friend We Often Miss

Hymnal: HSS1889 #50 (1889) Person Name: Frank L. Armstrong 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]

Christ, of all my hopes the ground

Hymnal: HSS1889 #105 (1889) Person Name: Frank L. Armstrong Lyrics: 1 Christ, of all my hopes the ground, Christ, the spring of all my joy! Still in Thee may I be found; Still for Thee my pray’rs employ. 2 Fountain of overflowing grace! Freely from Thy fullness give; Till I close my earthly race, Be it “Christ for me to live.” 3 Firmly trusting in Thy blood, Nothing shall my heart confound; Safely I shall pass the flood, Safely reach Emmanuel’s ground. 4 Thus, oh, thus an entrance give To the land of cloudless sky; Having known it “Christ to live,” Let me know it “gain to die.” Tune Title: JEWEL

Blest Jesus, Plead for Me

Armstrong First Line: When by sin and guilt o'ertaken Refrain First Line: Saviour, Thou wilt hear my cry Lyrics: 1 When by sin and guilt o’ertaken, Sinks my heart, of all forsaken; When no lips my cause is pleading, And my soul lies pierc’d and bleeding. Refrain: Saviour, Thou wilt hear my cry, Thou my help shalt be; For Thou wilt not my pray’r deny, Blest Jesus, plead for me. 2 When the way is rough and dreary, And my feet are worn and weary; When the tempter mocks my sorrow, Whispers I shall fall tomorrow. [Refrain] 3 When the pulse of life is failing, Human aid all unavailing; Till I pass thro’ heav’n’s own portal, Reach the joys which are immortal. [Refrain] Tune Title: [When by sin and guilt o'ertaken]

We Won't Give Up the Bible

Hymnal: HSS1889 #137 (1889) Person Name: F. L. Armstrong Lyrics: 1 We won’t give up the Bible, God’s holy Book of Truth; The blessed staff of hoary age, The guide of early youth. The sun that sheds a glorious light O’er ev’ry dreary road; The book that shows a Saviour’s love, And guides us home to God. 2 We won’t give up the Bible For pleasure or for pain; We’ll buy the truth, and sell it not, For all that we might gain. Though men should try to take our prize, By guilt or cruel might, We’d suffer all that man could do,— And God defend the right! 3 We won’t give up the Bible, But spread it far and wide, Until its saving voice be heard Beyond the rolling tide; Till all shall know its gracious pow’r; We, with one voice and heart, Resolve, that from God’s holy Word, We’ll never, never part. Tune Title: [We won't give up the Bible]
