My Friends and Neighbors, Far and Near

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 My friends and neighbors, far and near Attention give and you shall hear The Gospel trumpet still proclaim Salvation in the Savior's name. 2 Many a seaman you have heard Inviting you to seek the Lord, Yet still the Gospel you disdain, And Jesus hath been preached in vain. 3 When in affliction you do mourn, In sickness promise to return, But when in health run on in sin, And drink and swear and dance again. 4 Beloved soul, sad is your case; You mock God's people to their face. Merry you live, but do not know God's wrath pursues where'er you go? 5 The wicked will be sent to hell, With devils must forever dwell. I pray you, now return to God, While mercy's offered in his Word. 6 Your life is short, 't is but a dream, An empty bubble on a stream. Swiftly your days are passing by; Your end's approaching, you must die. 7 Come then, dear friends, for ruin bound, Obey the Gospel's joyful sound; Fly, fly to Jesus, do n't delay, Come, seek salvation, seek to-day. 8 To-day the Gospel bids you come, To-day for sinners there is room. Prepare to meet your God in peace, Accept the offers of his grace. Scripture: Joel 2:15 Used With Tune: [My friends and neighbors, far and near] Text Sources: Selected

Booker Appears in 13 hymnals First Line: I saw a blood-washed traveler Refrain First Line: Then palms of victory, crowns of glory Lyrics: 1 I saw a blood-washed traveler, In garments white as snow, While traveling on the highway, Where heavenly breezes blow; His path was full of trials, And yet his face was bright; He shouted as he journeyed, "I'm glad the burden's light." Chorus: Then palms of victory, crowns of glory, Palms of victory I shall wear. 2 I saw him in the conflict, When all around was strife; When wicked men and devils Convened to take his life; I saw him cast in prison— A dungeon dark as night; And yet I heard him shouting, "I'm glad the burden's light." [Chorus] 3 I saw him led from prison, And chained unto the stake; I heard him shout triumphant, "'Tis all for Jesus' sake!" He saw the fires when kindled, The faggots blazing bright; He said "The yoke is easy— The burden is so light." [Chorus] 4 I saw the flames surround him, His body racked with pain; He shouted, "Jesus saves me! I know that death is gain!" Then casting his eyes upward, Before he took his flight, I heard him faintly whisper, "I'm glad the burden's light!" [Chorus] 5 I saw his soul departing, It seemed the veil was rent; And I could see the angels, Which Jesus Christ had sent; They bore him to the Savior, The ever-blessed Son, The brightest star in glory, And Jesus said, "Well done!" [Chorus] Scripture: Revelation 7:9 Used With Tune: [I saw a blood-washed traveler]
