Simply Trusting Christ My Lord

Author: F. A. B. Hymnal: GA1888 #131 (1888) Refrain First Line: Simply trusting, simply trusting Lyrics: 1. Simply trusting Christ my Lord, Simply trusting ev'ry day; Trusting Him whate'er betide, As I walk the narrow way. Chorus: Simply trusting, simply trusting, Trusting Jesus day by day; Thro' life's long and toilsome journey, Simply trusting all the way. 2. Trusting when the shades of night Hide each glim'ring, guiding ray; Trusting Him I yet can sing, As I onward press my way. [Chorus] 3. Trusting when the heart is light, Trusting 'neath a load of care; On the mountain, in the vale, Trusting Jesus ev'rywhere. [Chorus] 4. Simply trusting, even when Ev'ry cherished hope is gone, And each earthly prop removed, That my poor heart leaned upon. [Chorus] 5. Simply trusting to the end Of this earthly pilgrim way, When my faith shall end in sight, And my night in perfect day. [Chorus] Tune Title: [Simply trusting Christ my Lord]

Only Waiting

Author: Mrs. F. L. Mace Hymnal: GA1888 #133 (1888) First Line: Only waiting till the shadows Refrain First Line: Only waiting till the shadows Lyrics: 1. Only waiting till the shadows Are a little longer grown; Only waiting till the glimmer Of the day's last beam has flown; Till the night of earth is faded From the heart once full of day, Till the stars of heaven are breaking Thro' the twilight soft and gray. Chorus: Only waiting till the shadows Are a little longer grown; Only waiting till the glimmer Of the day's last beam is flown. 2. Only waiting till the angels Open wide the mystic gate, At whose feet I long have waited, Weary, poor, and desolate. Even now I hear their footsteps And their voices far away; If they call me, I am waiting, Only waiting to obey. [Chorus] 3. Only waiting till the reapers Shall the ripe sheaves gather home; For the summer time is faded, And the autumn leaves have come. Quickly, reapers, quickly gather Those who with expectant heart, For thy coming long have waited; They are eager to depart. [Chorus] 4. Waiting for a brighter dwelling Than I ever yet have seen, Where the Tree of Life is blooming, And the fields are ever green; Waiting for my full redemption, When my Saviour shall restore All that sin has caused to wither; Shall restore to change no more. [Chorus] Scripture: 1 Corinthians 1:7 Tune Title: [Only waiting till the shadows]

Ask Not to be Excused

Ask not to be excused, This answer may be giv'n: Thou hast my love abused, Thou art excused from heav'n. 2.
