It Is Well With My Soul

Author: Horatio G. Spafford Appears in 496 hymnals First Line: When peace like a river attendeth my way Lyrics: 1 When peace like a river attendeth my way,When sorrows like sea billows roll;Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say,"It is well, it is well with my soul."Refrain:It is well with my soul,it is well, it is well with my soul.2 Though Satan should buffet, tho' trials should come,Let this blest assurance control,That Christ has regarded my helpless estate,And hath shed His own blood for my soul. [Refrain]3 My sin, O, the bliss of this glorious thought,My sin not in part but the whole,Is nailed to the cross and I bear it no more,Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul!

It Came upon the Midnight Clear

Author: Edmund H. Sears Appears in 892 hymnals Lyrics: 1 It came upon the midnight clear,That glorious song of old,From angels bending near the earthTo touch their harps of gold:"Peace on the earth, good will to men,From heav'n's all-gracious King!" The world in solemn stillness layTo hear the angels sing.2 Still thru the cloven skies they comeWith peaceful wings unfurled,And still their heav'nly music floatsO'er all the weary world:Above its sad and lowly plainsThey bend on hov'ring wing,And ever o'er its Babel soundsThe blessed angels sing.3 All ye, beneath life's crushing load,Whose forms are bending low, Who toil along the climbing wayWith painful steps and slow,Look now! For glad and golden hoursCome swiftly on the wing:O rest beside the weary roadAnd hear the angels sing!4 For lo, the days are hast'ning on,By prophet bards foretold,When with the ever circling yearsComes round the age of gold;When peace shall over all the earthIts ancient splendors fling,And the whole world give back the songWhich now the angels sing.

Come, Thou Fount

Author: Robert Robinson Appears in 2,225 hymnals First Line: Come, Thou Fount of ev'ry blessing Lyrics: 1 Come, Thou Fount of ev'ry blessing,Tune my heart to sing Thy grace;Streams of mercy, never ceasing,Call for songs of loudest praise.Teach me some melodious sonnet,Sung by flaming tongues above;Praise His name! I'm fixed upon it!Name of God's redeeming love.2 Hitherto Thy love has blest me;Thou hast bro't me to this place;And I know Thy hand will bring meSafely home by Thy good grace.Jesus sought me when a stranger,Wandering from the fold of God;He, to rescue me from danger,Bought me with his precious blood.3 O to grace how great a debtorDaily I'm constrained to be!Let Thy goodness, like a fetter,Bind my wandering heart to Thee:Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it,Wandering from the God I love;Here's my heart, O take and seal it;Seal it for Thy courts above.

A Mighty Fortress Is Our God

Author: Martin Luther; Frederick H. Hedge Appears in 685 hymnals Lyrics: 1 A mighty Fortress is our God,A Bulwark never failing;Our Helper He, amid the floodOf mortal ills prevailing:For still our ancient foeDoth seek to work us woe;His craft and power are great,And armed with cruel hate,On earth is not His equal.2 Did we in our own strength confide,Our striving would be losing,Were not the right Man on our side,The Man of God's own choosing:Dost ask who that may be?Christ Jesus, it is He;Lord Sabaoth His name,From age to age the same,And He must win the battle.3 And tho this world, with devils filled,Should threaten to undo us,We will not fear, for God has willedHis truth to triumph through us:The Prince of Darkness grim,We tremble not for him;His rage we can endure,For lo, his doom is sure;One little word shall fell him.4 That word above all earthly powers,No thanks to them, abideth;The Spirit and the gifts are oursThro him who with us sideth;Let goods and kindred go,This mortal life also;The body they may kill:God's truth abideth still;His Kingdom is forever.Amen.
