sammieguze: Are you weary, are you heavy hearted?
Tell it to Jesus, tell it to Jesus.

Tell it to Jesus alone.

Tell it to Jesus, tell it to Jesus,
He is a Friend that’s well known.
You’ve no other such a friend or brother,
Tell it to Jesus alone

mine would definitely be

I KNOW NOT WHY GOD'S TO ME HE DID MAKE KNOWN
NOR WHY BELEIVING CHRIST IN ME
BROUGHT PEACE WITHIN MY HEART

BUT I KNOW WHOM I HAVE BELIED
AND AM PERSUADED THAT HE IS ABLE
TO KEEP THAT WHICH I'VE COMMITED UNTO HIM AGAINST THAT DAY

OduntanGabriel: Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!
That calls me from a world of care,
And bids me at my Father’s throne
Make all my wants and wishes known.
In seasons of distress and grief,
My soul has often found relief,
And oft escaped the tempter’s snare,
By thy return, sweet hour of prayer!
Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!
The joys I feel, the bliss I share,
Of those whose anxious spirits burn
With strong desires for thy return!
With such I hasten to the place
Where God my Savior shows His face,
And gladly take my station there,
And wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer!
Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!
Thy wings shall my petition bear
To Him whose truth and faithfulness
Engage the waiting soul to bless.
And since He bids me seek His face,
Believe His Word and trust His grace,
I’ll cast on Him my every care,
And wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer!
Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!
May I thy consolation share,
Till, from Mount Pisgah’s lofty height,
I view my home and take my flight.
This robe of flesh I’ll drop, and rise
To seize the everlasting prize,
And shout, while passing through the air,
“Farewell, farewell, sweet hour of prayer!
I love d lyrics so much infact I'm singing along smiley

Oh Lord, my God! When i'm in awesome wonder,
Consider all the works thy hands hath made,
I see the stars, i hear the rolling thunders,
Thy powers through all the universe displayed.

CHORUS: Then sings my soul, my saviour God to thee...
How great thou art, how great thou art...
Then sings my soul, my saviour God to thee...
How great thou art, how great thou art...!

When through the woods and forest glades i wonder,
And hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees,
When i look down, from lofty mountain grandeur,
And hear the brook, and feel the gentle breeze!

And when i think, that God his son not sparing,
Sent Him to die, i scarce can take it in...,
That on the cross, my burden gladly bearing,
He bled and died to take away my sins!

When Christ shall come with shouts of acclamation,
And take me home, what joy shall fill my heart..,
Then i shall bow in humble adoration,
And there proclaim, My God, how great thou art!!!


BLESS THE LORD, OH MY SOUL!
Bless the Lord, oh my soul.
Oh my soul! Worship His holy name...
Sing like never before, oh my soul!
Worship His holy name!!!!

So, I am an anglican.; In my church, we do a lot of hymn singing. Every first and last sunday of the month, we usually have the eucharistic service ( a service wherein communion is served ) .; and wenever the communion is going on, hymns re always being sung.; I always do enjoy singing hymn 399 of the ancient and modern...;It goes thus -
Alleluia! Sing to Jesus!
He's the sceptre, He's the throne;
Alleluia! He's the triumph,
He's the victory alone;
Hark the songs of peaceful sion
Thunder like a mighty flood;
Jesus out of every nation
Hath redeemed us by His blood.

I'm in love with his character o but the movies didn't do justice to him being a revolutionary at all cry.
you ain't alone dear. I had given an arm and a leg to get the flick. But sadly, it turned out to be an utter flimflam, a far cry from the original arresting novel. Not just the Odenigbo character as played by Chiwetal Ejiofor; the flick in its entirety came up short. And to think it got so much publicity before hitting the cinema. Some things are better left undone. The half of a yellow sun is one movie that never should have been directed and produced.

1 Out of my bondage, sorrow, and night,
Jesus, I come! Jesus, I come!
Into Thy freedom, gladness, and light,
Jesus, I come to Thee!
Out of my sickness into Thy health,
Out of my want and into Thy wealth,
Out of my sin and into Thyself,
Jesus, I come to Thee!

2 Out of my shameful failure and loss,
Jesus, I come! Jesus, I come!
Into the glorious gain of Thy cross,
Jesus, I come to Thee!
Out of earth’s sorrows into Thy balm,
Out of life’s storm and into Thy calm,
Out of distress to jubilant psalm,
Jesus, I come to Thee!

3 Out of unrest and arrogant pride,
Jesus, I come! Jesus, I come!
Into Thy blessed will to abide,
Jesus, I come to Thee!
Out of myself to dwell in Thy love,
Out of despair into raptures above,
Upward for aye on wings like a dove,
Jesus, I come to Thee!

4 Out of the fear and dread of the tomb,
Jesus, I come! Jesus, I come!
Into the joy and pleasure, Thine own,
Jesus, I come to Thee!
Out of the depths of ruin untold,
Into the flock Thy love doth enfold,
Ever Thy glorious face to behold,
Jesus, I come to Thee!

YET I BELIEVE

Refrain

I believe God lay sleeping in the tomb

Waiting until the day should break.

I believe my Father has care of me

And someday, He'll say, "My child awake

1. I believe man was born to die

Over and over again.

I believe that man was meant to cry

"Amen, my Lord, Amen."



2. I believe that the stars are mine.

Love lifts the stars from the night,

I believe there's always sun to shine,

Though sometimes it's hidden from sight.



3. I believe man must go alone.

Tossed like a wave on the sea.

Yet I believe that man must have a home.

God holds a mansion for me.



4. I believe man was born for joy.

Some men must find it in pain.

Some rivers run through caves beneath the ground.

Sometimes there's sun in the rain.

I luv dis hymn to pieces,∂ yoruba verse is 'OKAN MI YIN OBA ORUN' uote author=benzion72]
Praise, my soul, the King of Heaven;
To His feet thy tribute bring.
Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven,
Evermore His praises sing:
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Praise the everlasting King.

Praise Him for His grace and favor
To our fathers in distress.
Praise Him still the same as ever,
Slow to chide, and swift to bless.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Glorious in His faithfulness.

Fatherlike He tends and spares us;
Well our feeble frame He knows.
In His hands He gently bears us,
Rescues us from all our foes.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Widely yet His mercy flows.

Frail as summer’s flower we flourish,
Blows the wind and it is gone;
But while mortals rise and perish
Our God lives unchanging on,
Praise Him, Praise Him, Hallelujah
Praise the High Eternal One!

Angels, help us to adore Him;
Ye behold Him face to face;
Sun and moon, bow down before Him,
Dwellers all in time and space.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Praise with us the God of grace.

charleff512: Hymn singing is a solemn way of worshipping God during Christian services.The Hymns are read from different worship song books or hymnals during the course of the service.While some are sung to worship God,others affirm one's love for God, pledge commitment to God's work on earth and remind Us of our home above etc.
The First line of my favourite Christian Hymn reads 'Guide me Oh thou Great Jehovah Pilgrim Through This Barren Land'


Master the tempest is raging!
The bilows are tossing high!
The sky is o'ershadowed with blackness,
No shelter or help is nigh:
"Carest Thou not that we perish?"
How canst Thou lie asleep,
When each moment so madly is threatening
A grave in the angry deep?
"The winds and the waves shall obey my will
Peace.... Be still!
Whether the wrath of the storm-tossed sea or demons, or men, or whatever it be.
No waters can swallow the ship where lies
The master of ocean, And earth, and skies,
THEY ALL SHALL SWEETLY OBEY MY WILL
PEACE BE STILL! PEACE BE STILL
THEY ALL SHALL SWEETLY OBEY MY WILL
PEACE, PEACE, BE STILL!

Can you write some lines?

Once I wondered alone, in blackness of night.
Once I thought I was lost, far from God and right.
And I saw I was lost, and in my distress
I fell upon my knees in prayer.

Chorus : And I bent down on my knees, weigh down on my knees praying
to my Lord everyday. I was praying to my Lord Jesus, hear me please take all my worries away. Satan, tried to say the bible was a lie, that Jesus did not care and I would die... And so on..

I might not have gotten some places right cause I am kinda forgetting the actual words sometimes.
