Have You Heard The Gospel Story?

Author: H. N. Lincoln Hymnal: GA1888 #145 (1888) First Line: Have you heard the gospel story Lyrics: 1. Have you heard the gospel story, How the great Redeemer came From His home in realms of glory, To this world of sin and shame. To be cradled in a manger, To be humbled, oh, so low, E'en to be a wand'ring stranger, As He journey'd to and fro? E'en to be a wand'ring stranger, As He journey'd to and fro? 2. How He scatter'd peace and blessing, To the needy, rich or poor? All who came His name confessing, Were of His acceptance sure. Wondrous being! loving Saviour! Dearer than each earthly friend; On His foes bestowing favor, How could He so condescend? On His foes bestowing favor, How could He so condescend? 3. How He languished in the garden, And to Pilate's hall was led, And at last to seal our pardon, On the cruel cross He bled? Now in Heav'n He's interceding, At the glory throne for thee, While the Spirit, gently pleading, Whispers, "Lost one, come to me." While the Spirit, gently pleading, Whispers, "Lost one, come to me." 4. Yes, the Lord of all creation Calls you now to be His son; Heed the precious invitation, Oh, accept the gracious One Who but waits to grant salvation Friendless soul, there's refuge nigh; Haste! escape thy condemnation, Why, O lost one, will you die? Haste! escape thy condemnation, Why, O lost one, will you die? Languages: English Tune Title: [Have you heard the gospel story]

The Blood-Washed Pilgrim

Temptations sore beset him, But nothing could affright, He said, "The yoke is easy, The burden, it is light." Chorus: Oh! palms of victory, crowns of glory, Palms of victory I shall wear. 2. His helmet was Salvation, A simple Faith his shield, And Righteousness his breast-plate; The Spirit's sword he'd wield. All fiery darts arrested, And quenched their blazing flight; He cried, "The yoke is easy, The burden, it is light." [Chorus] 3. I saw him in the furnace, He doubted not, nor feared, And in the flames beside him The Son of God appeared. Though seven times 'twas heated With all the tempter's might, He said, "The yoke is easy, The burden, it is light." [Chorus] 4. Mid storms, and clouds, and trials, In prison, at the stake, He leaped for joy, rejoicing, 'Twas all for Jesus' sake. That God should count him worthy, Was such supreme delight, He cried, "The yoke is easy, The burden is so light." [Chorus] 5. I saw him overcoming, Through all the swelling strife, Until he crossed the threshold Of God's Eternal Life. The Crown, the Throne, the Sceptre, The Name, the Stone so White, Were his, who found, in Jesus, The yoke and burden light. [Chorus] Tune Title: [I saw a blood-washed pilgrim]

A Little More Rough Tossing

Author: F. A. B. Hymnal: GA1888 #149 (1888) Lyrics: 1. A little more rough tossing, Life's boist'rous sea while crossing, And we shall land upon the strand, Where all is calm and fair; Beyond the breakers' power, Where tempests never lower; And all who gain that blest domain, Shall rest and glory share. 2. A few more days of sighing, Of sorrow and of crying, And ev'ry tear shall disappear From ev'ry weeping eye; No shade of earthly sorrow, Shall dim that fair tomorrow; O glory bright, beyond earth's night, My faith beholds Thee nigh! 3. A few more days to tarry, Life's burdens still to carry, Along the path, our Saviour hath Ordained that we should go, Oppressed by cares and dangers, As pilgrims and as strangers; And then the life with glory rife, That ne'er an ill shall know. Tune Title: [A little more rough tossing]
