Praise, o praise our God and king

Praise, O Praise Our God And King

1. Praise, O praise our God and King;
Hymns of adoration sing;
For His mercies still endure
Ever faithful, ever sure.

2. Praise Him that He made the sun
Day by day his course to run;
For His mercies, still endure
Ever faithful, ever sure.

3. And the silver moon by night,'
Shining with her gentle light;
For His mercies, still endure
Ever faithful, ever sure.

4. Praise Him that He gave the rain
To mature the swelling grain;
For His mercies, still endure
Ever faithful, ever sure.

5. And hath bid the fruitful field,
Crops of precious increase yield;
For His mercies, still endure
Ever faithful, ever sure.

6. Praise Him for our harvest-store;
He hath filled the garner floor:
For His mercies, still endure
Ever faithful, ever sure.

7. And for richer food than this,
Pledge of everlasting bliss,
For His mercies still endure
Ever faithful, ever sure.

8. Glory to our bounteous King;
Glory let creation sing;
Glory to the Father, Son,
And blest Spirit, Three in One.

O Christ, whose glory fills our days

O Christ, Whose Glory Fills Our Days

1. O Christ, whose glory fills our days,
Whose beauty shines from shore to shore;
Our gladdest songs on high we raise
To Thee whom earth and heav’n adore.

2. The glory Thou to us hast shown,
Thy name proclaimed by Thy
word;
Thy majesty is surely known,
Thy praise among all people
heard.

3. The drooping spirit lives again,
The fainting heart regains its
power,
The sick and lame, Thy promise claim
In this Thy great appointed hour.

4. With what a wealth- of faith and hope
Thy word is grasped, the weak made strong;
We stretch our hands to touch Thy robe
And healed and blessed, Thy praise prolong.

Name of JESUS highest name

Name Of Jesus! Highest Name

1. Name of Jesus! Highest Name!
Name that earth and heaven adore!
From the heart of God it came,
Leads me to God’s heart once more.

2. Name of Jesus! living tide!
Days of drought for me are past;
How much more than satisfied
Are the thirsty lips at last!

3. Name of Jesus! Dearest Name!
Bread of heaven, and balm of love
Oil of gladness, surest claim
To the treasures stored above.

4. Jesus gives forgiveness free,
Jesus cleanses all my stains;
Jesus gives His life to me,
Jesus always He remains.

5. Only Jesus! Fairest Name!
Life, and rest, and peace, and bliss
Jesus, evermore the same,
He is mine, and I am His.

Jesus now saves me from sin
In His heart I’ve place,

He is my Shepherd, my Keeper,
Joyfully now I can sing.

I have the witness within
Jesus now saves me from sin
In His heart I’ve place,
I am saved by His grace
And I have the witness within.

Now I am saved, Hallelujah,
Praise for the wonderful word.

In His heart I’ve place,
I am saved by His grace
And I have the witness within.

Praise the Saviour ye who know Him

Praise the Saviour ye who know Him

1. Praise the Saviour, ye who know Him;
Who can tell how much we owe Him?
Gladly let us render to Him
All we have and are.

2. "Jesus” is the name that charms us;
He for conflicts fits and arms us;
Nothing move and nothing harm us,
When we trust Him.

3. Trust in Him, ye saints forever;
He is faithful, changing never;
Neither force nor guile can sever
Those He love from Him.

4. Keep us, Lord, oh, keep us cleaving
To Thyself and still believing,
Till the hour of our receiving
Promised joys in heaven.

5. Then we shall be where would be;
Then we shall be what we should be;
Things which are not now, nor could be,
Then shall be our own.

Father hear the prayer we offer

Father hear the prayer we offer 

1. Father, hear the prayer we offer
not for ease our prayer shall be,
but for strength that we may ever
live our lives courageously.

2. Not for ever n green pastures
do we ask our way to be;
but the steep and rugged pathway
may we tread rejoicingly.

3. Not for ever by still waters
would we idly rest and stay;
but would strike the living fountains
from the rocks along our way.

4. Be our strength in hours of weakness,
in our wanderings be out guide;
through endeavour, failure, danger,
Father, be there at our side.

Jesus, i my cross have taken

JESUS I MY CROSS HAVE TAKEN

1. Jesus, I my cross have taken.
All to leave and follow Thee;
Destitute, despised, forsaken,
Thou from hence my all shalt be:
Perish every fond ambition,
All I've sought, and hoped and
known;
Yet how rich is my condition,
God and heav'n are still my own!

2. Let the world despise and leave me,
They have left my Saviour too;
Human hearts and looks deceive me;
Thou art not, like man, untrue;
And, while Thou shalt smile upon me,
God of wisdom, love, and might,
Foes may hate and friends may shun me;
Show Thy face, and all is bright.

3. Man may trouble and distress me.
“Twill but drive me to Thy breast;
Life with trials hard may press me,
Heav’n will bring me sweeter rest.
O ‘tis not in grief to harm me,
While Thy love is left to me;
O 'twere not in joy to charm me,
Were that joy unmixed with Thee

4. Hasten on from grace to glory,
Armed by faith and winged by prayer;
Heav’n’s eternal days before me,
God’s own hand shall guide me there.
Soon shall close my earthly mission,
Swift shall pass my pilgrim days,
Hope shall change to glad fruition,
Faith to sight, and prayer to praise.
