Let Them Come to Me
Author: A. H. Adams Appears in 21 hymnals Person Name: A. H. Adams First Line: Hear the gentle Shepherd Used With Tune: [Hear the gentle Shepherd]
Let Them Come to Me
Whatsoever ye do, oh, hear it!
Author: Lilla M. Alexander Appears in 2 hymnals Person Name: Lilla M. Alexander First Line: It was only a little word Lyrics: 1 It was only a little word,
But God alone may know
How it saved a soul from the downward path,
And a life of shame and woe.
It was only a little word,
Yet is cruel, stinging smart
Estranged a dear friend who had loved us long,
And wounded a faithful heart.
Refrain:
Whatsoever ye do,
oh, heart it! hear it!
Whatsoever ye do,
Do all to the glory of God.
2 It was only a glance from an eye,
By sympathy filled with tears,
But its mem’ry clings like the perfume of flow’rs,
Whose fragrance grows sweeter with woe.
It was only a scornful look,
And a haughty, contemptuous air;
But it maddened a soul that was seeking for help,
And hurried it onto despair. [Refrain]
3 It was only the touch of a hand,
But it helped the fallen to rise;
And the Savior smiled as its record was made
In the book that before him lies.
It was only a little thing,
To pass on the other side;
But it gave into Satan’s power, a soul,
For whom Christ, the Lord, had died. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [It was only a little word]
Whatsoever ye do, oh, hear it!
My Goal is Christ
Author: Unknown Appears in 13 hymnals Person Name: Unknown First Line: Ah tell me not of gold or treasure Lyrics: 1 Ah, tell me not of gold or treasure,
Of pomp and beauty here on earth!
There's not a thing that gives me pleasure,
Of all this world displays for worth.
Each heart will seek and love its own;
Refrain:
My goal is Christ and Christ alone,
My goal is Christ and Christ alone.
2 The world and her pursuits will perish;
Her beauty's fading like a flower;
The brightest schemes the earth can cherish,
Are but the pastime of an hour.
Each heart will seek and love its own; [Refrain]
3 Against this tow’r there's no prevailing;
His kingdom passes not away;
His throne abides despite assailing,
From henceforth unto endless day.
Each heart will seek and love its own; [Refrain]
4 And though a pilgrim I must wander,
Still absent from the one I love,
He soon will have me with him yonder,
In his own glory-worlds above.
Triumphantly I therefore own; [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Ah tell me not of gold or treasure]

Anonymous
Person Name: Unknown Hymnal Number: 2 Author of "My Goal is Christ" in Triumphant Songs No.1 In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
