God of my life, through all my days
Author: Dr. Philip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #14 (1917) Lyrics: 1. God of my life, through all my days,
My grateful powers shall sound Thy praise;
My song shall wake with opening
And cheer the dark and silent night.
2. When anxious cares would break my rest,
And griefs would tear my throbbing breast,
Thy tuneful praises, raised on high,
Shall check the murmur and the sigh.
3. When death o'er nature shall prevail,
And all the powers of language fail,
Joy through my swimming eyes shall break
And mean the thanks I cannot speak.
4. But O, when that last conflict's o'er,
And I am chained to earth no more,
With what glad accents shall I rise
To join the music of the skies!
5. Soon shall I learn the exalted strains
Which echo through the heavenly plains;
And emulate, with joy unknown,
The glowing seraphs round the throne.
6. The cheerful tribute will I give,
Long as a deathless soul shall live;
A work so sweet, a theme so high,
Demands and crowns eternity.

Was it for Me?
Author: J. M. Whyte Hymnal: Redemption Songs #81b (1937) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Was it for me, for me alone Lyrics: 1 Was it for me, for me alone,
The Saviour left His glorious throne;
The dazzling splendours of the sky,
Was it for me He came to die?
2 Was it for me sweet angel strains
Came floating o'er Judea's plains?
That starlight night so long ago,
Was it for me God plann’d it so?
3 Was it for me the Saviour said,
'Pillow thy weary, aching head,
Trustingly on thy Saviour's breast?'
Was it for me, Can I thus rest? [Refrain]
4 Was it for me He wept and pray’d,
My load of sin before Him laid;
That night within Gethsemane,
Was it for me that agony?
5 Was it for me He bow’d His head
Upon the Cross, and freely shed
His precious blood—that crimson tide,
Was it for me the Saviour died?
6 It was for me, yes, all for me,
O love of God, so great so free!
O wondrous love, I'll shout and sing,
He died for me, my Lord and King! Topics: The Gospel Languages: English Tune Title: NICOMADUS
