Away in the Kingdom

Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Come all oppressed and hear me tell Lyrics: 1. Come all oppressed and hear me tell Away in the Kingdom, That Jesus conquered death and hell, Away in the Kingdom. He bought my pardon on the Tree, Away in the Kingdom. I'm glad to tell you now I'm free, Away in the Kingdom. Chorus: There's plenty of room, Away in the Kingdom. There's plenty of room, my Jesus says, Away in the Kingdom. 2. Of glorious liberty I'll sing, Away in the Kingdom. And make the heavenly arches ring, Away in the Kingdom. He, all my prison bars did break, Away in the Kingdom. My yoke of bondage He did take, Away in the Kingdom. 3. I all my sins on Him did lay, Away in the Kingdom. And this to me my Lord did say, Away in the Kingdom: "If you my mandates will obey, Away in the Kingdom, I'll give you a home with me to stay," Away in the Kingdom. 4. Lord, I believe a rest remains, Away in the Kingdom. A rest where pure enjoyment reigns, Away in the Kingdom. A rest where all our soul's desire, Away in the Kingdom, Where fear and sin and grief expire, Away in the Kingdom.

Forever here my rest shall be

The Heavenly Union

Appears in 73 hymnals First Line: Come, saints and sinners, hear me tell Lyrics: 1. Come, saints and sinners hear me tell The wonders of Emmanuel, Who saved me from a burning hell And brought my soul with Him to dwell, And gave me Heavenly Union. 2. When Jesus saw me from on high, Beheld my soul in ruin lie, I grieved me so that I must die. I strove salvation for to buy, But still I found no Union. 3. But when I hated all my sins, My dear Redeemer took me in And with His blood He washed me clean, And, oh, what seasons I have seen Since first I found this Union. 4. I praised the Lord both night and day, I went from house to house to pray, And if I met one on the way, I always found something to say About the Heavenly Union. 5. I wonder why all saints don't sing And make the heavenly arches ring, And spread the news from pole to pole 'Till every nation has been told About the Heavenly Union.

I'll Be There

Appears in 1,406 hymnals First Line: There is a land of pure delight Refrain First Line: I'll be there, I'll be there Lyrics: 1. There is a land of pure delight, Where Saints immortal reign; Infinite day excludes the night, And pleasures banish Pain. Chorus: I'll be there, I'll be there, When the first trumpet sounds I'll be there. I'll be there, I'll be there, When the first trumpet sounds I'll be there. 2. There everlasting spring abides, And never-with'ring flow'rs; Death, like a narrow Sea, divides This heav'nly land from ours. 3 Sweet fields beyond the swelling flood, Stand dressed in living green; So to the Jews old Canaan stood, While Jordan rolled between. 4. Could we but stand where Moses stood And view the landscape o'er, Not Jordan's stream, nor death's cold flood, Should fright us from the shore.

I'm Going There

Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: Since I began to serve the Lord Refrain First Line: Although a pilgrim here below Lyrics: 1. Since I began to serve the Lord, And to love His blessed word, A child of heav’n I’ve tried to be, This world has been no friend to me. Chorus: Although a pilgrim here below, Where dangers are and sorrows grow, I have a home in heav’n above, I’m going there, I’m going there. 2. And often when I would do good, And keep the promise as I should, I miss the way, and coming short, It makes me mourn and grieves my heart. [Chorus] 3. Sometimes at best I hardly know Just what to do or where to go, And when I sing or try to pray, My Savior seems so far away. [Chorus] 4. And then I wait, it is not long Before He comes in pray'r and song, And when He speaks, O blessed voice, It always makes my heart rejoice. [Chorus] 5. When trials press upon my soul, And pierce my heart with grief untold, I look away to mansions fair, And often wish that I was there. [Chorus] 6. My friends and kindred who have gone, Are now among that heav’nly throng, Far, far above this world of tears, Its changing scenes and rolling years. [Chorus] Used With Tune: [Since I began to serve the Lord]

Hallelujah! The storm is passing over, Hallelujah! 2. Billows rolling high, and thunder shakes the ground, Lightnings flash, and tempest all around, Jesus walks the sea and calms the angry waves, And the storm is passing over, Hallelujah! [Chorus] 3. The stars have disappeared, and distant lights are dim, My soul is filled with fears, the seas are breaking in. I hear the Master cry, "Be not afraid, ’tis I," And the storm is passing over, Hallelujah! [Chorus] 4. Soon we shall reach the distant shining shore, Free from all the storms, we’ll rest forevermore. Safe within the veil, we’ll furl the riven sail, And the storm will all be over, Hallelujah! [Chorus] Used With Tune: [Courage my soul and let us journey on]

Chorus: I am trusting Lord, in Thee; Blessed Lamb of Calvary; Humbly at thy cross I bow; Jesus saves me--saves me now. 2. Long my heart has sighed for Thee; Long has evil dwelt within; Jesus sweetly speaks to me; "I will cleanse you from all sin." 3. Here I give my all to Thee, Friends, and time, and earthly store; Soul and body, thine to be-- Wholly thine forever more. 4. In the promises I trust, In the cleansing blood confide; I am prostrate in the dust, I with Christ am crucified. 5. Jesus comes, He fills my soul, Perfected in love I am. I am every whit made whole, Glory, glory to the Lamb!

Appears in 708 hymnals Lyrics: 1. O how happy are they, Who the Saviour obey, And laid up their treasure above! Tongue can never express The sweet comfort and peace Of a soul in its earliest love. 2. 'Twas a heaven below My Redeemer to know, And the angels could do nothing more, Than to fall at His feet, And the story repeat, And the love of sinners adore. 3. Jesus all the day long Was my joy and my song; O that all his salvation might see! "He hath loved me," I cried, "He hath suffered and died, To redeem even rebels like me."

O for a heart to praise my God

Appears in 1,165 hymnals Lyrics: 1. O for a heart to praise my God, A heart from sin set free; A heart that always feels Thy blood, So freely spilt for me. 2. A heart resigned, submissive, meek, My great Redeemer’s throne; Where only Christ is heard to speak, Where Jesus reigns alone. 3. O for a lowly, contrite heart, Believing, true and clean, Which neither life nor death can part From Him that dwells within! 4. A heart in every thought renewed, And full of love divine; Perfect and right, and pure, and good, A copy, Lord, of Thine.

There is a fountain filled with blood

Appears in 2,497 hymnals Lyrics: 1 There is a fountain filled with blood Drawn from Immanuel's vein; And sinners plunged beneath that flood Lose all their guilty stains. 2 The dying thief rejoiced to see That fountain in his day; And there may I, though vile as he, Wash all my sins away. 3 Thou dying Lamb! Thy precious blood Shall never lose its power, Till all the ransomed Church of God Are saved, to sin no more. 4 Ever since, by faith, I saw the stream Thy flowing wounds supply, Redeeming love has been my theme, And shall be till I die.
