Old rugged cross.

It pays to serve Jesus, I speak from my heart,
He'll always be with us, if we do our part,
There's naught in this wide world can pleasure afford;
There's peace and contentment in serving the Lord.
Chorus:
I love Him for better than in days of yore,
I'll serve Him more truly than ever before,
I'll do as He bids me whatever the cost,
I'll be a good soldier, I'll die at my post.
And oft when I'm tempted to turn from the track,
I think of my Savior, my mind wanders back
To the place where there nailed Him on Calvary's tree.
I heard a voice saying, "I suffered for thee."
[Chorus]
A place I remember where I was set free,
T'was where I found pardon, a heaven for me;
There Jesus spoke sweetly to my soul,
My sins are forgiven, He made my heart whole.
[Chorus]
How rich is the blessing the world cannot give,
I'm satisfied fully for Jesus to live;
Though friends may forsake me and trial arise,
I am trusting Jesus, His love never dies.
[Chorus]
There is no one like Jesus can cheer me today,
His love and His kindness can ne'er fade away;
In winter and summer, In sunshine and rain,
His love and affection are always the same.
[Chorus]
Will you have this blessing that Jesus bestows,
A free full salvation from sin's bitter throes?
O come to the Savior, to Calvary flee,
The fountain is opened, is flowing for thee.
[Chorus]

What a friend we have in Jesus

I am so glad that Jesus loves me. Rock of ages.

Christian seek not yet repose

I soooo love this song, I sing it everyday it's nice. I'm happy someone likes it too.

I’ve found a friend in Jesus, He’s everything
to me,
He’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul;
The Lily of the Valley, in Him alone I see
All I need to cleanse and make me fully
whole.
In sorrow He’s my comfort, in trouble He’s
my stay;
He tells me every care on Him to roll.
Refrain:
He’s the Lily of the Valley, the Bright
and Morning Star,
He’s the fairest of ten thousand to my
soul.
He all my grief has taken, and all my
sorrows borne;
In temptation He’s my strong and mighty
tow’r;
I’ve all for Him forsaken, and all my idols
torn
From my heart and now He keeps me by His
pow’r.
Though all the world forsake me, and Satan
tempt me sore,
Through Jesus I shall safely reach the goal.
He’ll never, never leave me, nor yet forsake
me here,
While I live by faith and do His blessed will;
A wall of fire about me, I’ve nothing now to
fear,
From His manna He my hungry soul shall
fill.
Then sweeping up to glory to see His
blessed face,
Where rivers of delight shall ever roll.

Trust and obey...

Your SCREEN NAME baffles me but I guess you are Methodist, Presby or most Likely ANGLICANA

Oh what a wonderful wonderful day

Oh what a wonderful wonderful day
Oh what a wonderful wonderful day Day I will never forget After I'd wandered in darkness away Jesus my saviour I met..

My hope is built on nothing less

Oh worship thy King
Most glorious above.

One reason why I love Methodism is because of the amazing hymns tradition inherited from John and Charles Wesley.. One of my favourites is

My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus Christ, my righteousness;
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
But wholly lean on Jesus’ name.

On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand,
All other ground is sinking sand.


Then the DOXOLOGY

Praise God, from Whom all blessings flow;
Praise Him, all creatures here below;
Praise Him above, ye heavenly host;
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost

Worthy is the Lamb!!!!

I Need Thee Every Hour

I love this one from my secondary school boarding days in the early 80s



New every morning is the love
Our wakening and uprising prove;
Through sleep and darkness safely brought,
Restored to life and power and thought.

New mercies, each returning day,
Hover around us while we pray;
New perils past, new sins forgiven,
New thoughts of God, new hopes of heaven.

If, on our daily course, our mind
Be set to hallow all we find,
New treasures still, of countless price,
God will provide for sacrifice.

Old friends, old scenes, will lovelier be,
As more of heaven in each we see;
Some softening gleam of love and prayer
Shall dawn on every cross and care.

We need not bid, for cloistered cell,
Our neighbor and our words farewell,
Nor strive to find ourselves too high
For sinful man beneath the sky.

The trivial round, the common task,
Will furnish all we ought to ask;
Room to deny ourselves, a road
To bring us daily nearer God.

Seek we no more; content with these,
Let present rapture, comfort, ease—
As heaven shall bid them, come and go:
The secret this of rest below.

Only, O Lord, in Thy dear love,
Fit us for perfect rest above,
And help us, this and every day,
To live more nearly as we pray.

YOU ARE GREAT BY STEVE CROWN. #EPIC#INSPIRING

According to my church's major SEASONS

LENTEN: Christians seek ye not repose,
Forty days and forty night

EASTER: Lo in the grave He lay
Man of sorrows
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

XMAS: once in a royal David's city
While shepherds watched their flock

GENERAL: thou whose almighty word
King of Glory King of peace
Stand up, stand up for Jesus
Onward christian soldiers
Eternal father strong to save
The church's one foundation

Christian seek not yet repose Hear thy guardian angel say Thou art in the midst of foes Watch and pray

HILLSONG. "Desert Song" [Verse 1:] This is my prayer in the desert When all that's within me feels dry This is my prayer in my hunger and need My God is the God who provides [Verse 2:] And this is my prayer in the fire In weakness or trial or pain There is a faith proved Of more worth than gold So refine me, Lord, through the flame [Chorus:] And I will bring praise I will bring praise No weapon formed against me shall remain I will rejoice I will declare God is my victory and He is here [Verse 3:] And this is my prayer in the battle When triumph is still on its way I am a conqueror and co-heir with Christ So firm on His promise I'll stand [Chorus:] And I will bring praise I will bring praise No weapon formed against me shall remain I will rejoice I will declare God is my victory and He is here [Bridge 4x:] All of my life In every season You are still God I have a reason to sing I have a reason to worship [Chorus 2x:] And I will bring praise I will bring praise No weapon formed against me shall remain I will rejoice I will declare God is my victory and He is here [Verse 4:] This is my prayer in the harvest When favour and providence flow I know I'm filled to be emptied again The seed I've received I will sow

We sang this hymn a lot in primary school and the lyrics stuck like glue to my memory for over a decade now. It was much later that I got to understand and appreciate the message in it.

Be thou my guardian and my guide
And hear me when I call
Let not my slippery foot step slide
And hold me lest I fall

The world of flesh and satan dwell
Around the path I thread
O save me from the snares of he'll
The quickner of the dead

And if I'm tempted I'm to sin
And outward things are strong
Do thou O Lord keep worship him
And save my soul from wrong

Still let me ever watch and pray
And feel that I am frail
That's if thy tempt accross my way
Yet it may not prevail

Infact I can sing all the verses offhand.

What a friend we have in Jesus
All our sins and grieves to bear....

As the deer panteth for the water
So my soul long after thee....

Abide with me

Spirit Divine attend our prayers and make this house thy home, descend with thy gracious power, oh come, great spirit come
