Persevere

Hymnal: JW1878 #201 (1879) First Line: Toil on, teachers! toil on, boldly Lyrics: 1 Toil on, teachers! toil on, boldly, Labor on, and watch and pray; Men may scoff and treat you coldly; Heed them not, go on your way. Jesus is a loving master; Cease not, then, this work to do; Cleave to him still closer, faster, He will own and honor you. 2 Toil on, teachers! earnest, steady, Sowing well the seeds of truth; Always willing, cheerful, ready, Watching, praying, for your youth. Patient, firm, and persevering, Leaning on the promise sure; Prayer will surely gain a hearing, Faithful to the end endure. Languages: English Tune Title: MEMORY

The Best Friend

Hymnal: JW1878 #202 (1879) First Line: One there is, above all others Lyrics: 1 One there is, above all others, Well deserves the name of Friend; His is love beyond a brother's, Costly, free, and knows no end. Which of all our friends to save us, Could, or would, have shed his blood? But our Jesus died to have us Reconciled, in him, to God. 2 When he lived on earth so lowly, Friend of sinners was his name; Now enthroned among the holy, He rejoices in the same. Oh, for grace our hearts to soften! Teach us, Lord, at length to love; We, alas! forget too often What a friend we have above. Languages: English Tune Title: MEMORY

Send Me

Fields are white and harvest waiting; Who will bear the sheaves away?" Loud and strong the Master calleth; Rich reward he offers thee; Who will answer, gladly saying, "Here am I; send me, send me!" 2 Let none hear you idly saying, "There is nothing I can do." While the souls of men are dying, And the Master calls for you. Take the task he gives you gladly; Let his work your pleasure be; Answer quickly when he calleth, "Here am I; send me, send me!"

There is a fountain filled with blood

Hymnal: JW1878 #206 (1879) Lyrics: 1 There is a fountain filled with blood, Drawn from Immanuel's veins, And sinners, plunged beneath that flood, Lose all their guilty stains. 2 Dear dying Lamb, thy precious blood Shall never lose its power, Till all the ransomed Church of God Are saved to sin no more. 3 E'er since, by faith, I saw the stream Thy flowing wounds supply, Redeeming love has been my theme, And shall be till I die. 4 Then in a nobler, sweeter song, I'll sing thy power to save, When this poor lisping, stammering tongue Lies silent in the grave.
