Refrain: I am so glad that Jesus loves me, Jesus loves me, Jesus loves me; I am so glad that Jesus loves me, Jesus loves even me. 2 Though I forget him, and wander away, Still He doth love me wherever I stray; Back to his dear loving arms would I flee, When I remember that Jesus loves me. [Refrain] 3 O if there's only one song I can sing, When in his beauty I see the great King, This shall my song in eternity be, "O what a wonder that Jesus loves me." [Refrain] Amen.

Be still, my soul: thy best, thy heav'nly Friend Through thorny ways leads to a joyful end. 2 Be still, my soul: thy God doth undertake To guide the future as he has the past. Thy hope, thy confidence let nothing shake; All now mysterious shall be bright at last. Be still, my soul: the waves and winds still know His voice who ruled them while he dwelt below. 3 Be still, my soul: when dearest friends depart, And all is darkened in the vale of tears, Then shalt thou better know his love, his heart, Who comes to soothe thy sorrow and thy fears. Be still, my soul: thy Jesus can repay From his own fullness all he takes away. 4 Be still, my soul: the hour is hast'ning on When we shall be for ever with the Lord, When disappointment, grief, and fear are gone, Sorrow forgot, love's purest joys restored. Be still, my soul: when change and tears are past, All safe and blessed we shall meet at last. Amen.

Now Israel may say, and that in truth

Hymnal: TH1961 #514 (1961) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 Now Israel may say, and that in truth, If that the Lord had not our right maintained, If that the Lord had not with us remained, When cruel men against us rose to strive, We surely had been swallowed up alive. 2 Yea when their wrath against us fiercely rose, The swelling tide had o'er us spread its wave, The raging stream had then become our grave, The surging flood, in proudly swelling roll, Most surely then had overwhelmed our soul. 3 Blest be the Lord who made us not their prey: As from the snare a bird escapeth free, Their net us rent and so escaped are we: Our only help is in Jehovah's Name, Who made the earth and all the heav'nly frame.

Whitmore Hymnal: TH1961 #311 (1961) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 Father, again in Jesus' Name we meet, And bow in penitence beneath thy feet: Again to thee our feeble voices raise, To sue for mercy, and to sing thy praise. 2 O we would bless thee for thy ceaseless care, And all thy works from day to day declare: Is not our life with hourly mercies crowned? Does not thine arm encircle us around? 3 Alas, unworthy of thy boundless love, Too oft with careless feet from thee we rove; But now, encouraged by thy voice, we come, Returning sinners to a Father's home. 4 O by that Name in whom all fulness dwells, O by that love which ev'ry love excels, O by that blood so freely shed for sin, Open blest mercy's gate, and take us in.

Author: Henry F. Lyte Hymnal: TH1961 #335 (1961) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 Abide with me: fast falls the eventide; The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide: When other helpers fail, and comforts flee, Help of the helpless, O abide with me. 2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day; Earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away; Change and decay in all around I see; O thou who changest not, abide with me. 3 I need thy presence every passing hour; What but thy grace can foil the tempter's pow'r? Who like thyself my guide and stay can be? Through cloud and sunshine, O abide with me. 4 I fear no foe, with thee at hand to bless: Ills have no weight and tears no bitterness. Where is death's sting? where, grave, thy victory? I triumph still, if thou abide with me. 5 Hold thou thy cross before my closing eyes: Shine through the gloom, and point me to the skies: Heav'n's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee: In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me.

Not worthy, Lord! to gather up the crumbs

Author: Edward H. Bickersteth Hymnal: TH1961 #356 (1961) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 Not worthy, Lord! to gather up the crumbs With trembling hand that from thy table fall, A weary, heavy-laden sinner comes To plead thy promise and obey thy call. 2 I am not worthy to be thought thy child, Nor sit the last and lowest at thy board; Too long a wand'rer and too oft beguiled, I only ask one reconciling word. 3 One word from thee, my Lord, one smile, one look, And I could face the cold, rough world again; And with that treasure in my heart could brook The wrath of devils and the scorn of men. 4 I hear thy voice; thou bidd'st me come and rest; I come, I kneel, I clasp thy pierced feet; Thou bidd'st me take my place, a welcome guest Among thy saints, and of thy banquet eat. 5 My praise can only breathe itself in prayer, My prayer can only lose itself in thee; Dwell thou for ever in my heart, and there, Lord, let me sup with thee; sup thou with me.
