The risen Saviour stands

Author: Rev. John P. Hobson Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 The risen Saviour stands With wounded brow and hands, In loving tone demands; O tell Me, dost thou love? 2 Thy question, Saviour dear, Falls on my list’ning ear, And makes me ask in fear Lord Jesus, do I love? 3 I think upon the scorn Which Thou for me hast borne, And sigh, when weak and worn, Lord Jesus, do I love? 4 My faith, O Lord, is weak, Yet lowlily and meek, This answer would I speak, Thou knowest that I love. Used With Tune: THELE

Not in the deep contrition

Author: Lucy A. Bennett Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Not in the deep contrition Of thy repentant soul; Not in thy tearful pleading— Lord Jesus, make me whole.” Not where the Spirit’s graces The Spirit’s work reveal; Rest not for thy salvation E’en on the Spirit’s seal. 2 Not in the changed affections Of thy regen’rate heart; Not in the happiest “feelings” Which holiest thoughts impart; Not in thy new “experience,” However bright or fair,— In vain, with eager longing, We seek assurance there. 3 Uplift thine eyes to Jesus, When weary in the quest! Uplift thine eyes to Jesus, And faith shall be at rest. High in the heav’ns exalted, With nail-prints in His hands, As thy divine Assurance, Eternally He stands! 4 The very crown of glory, Which wreathes His kingly brow, Declares thy guilt atoned for, And peace thy portion now. Thy sins are gone forever, “He liveth who was dead,”— That Blessèd One, our “Surety,” Who suffered in our stead. 5 Peace to each troubled conscience! Redemption’s work is done! Jehovah gave “assurance” By raising up His Son! Now, free from condemnation, Free from the law’s great claim, Give glory everlasting To His belovèd Name! Used With Tune: GOLDEN CITY

When the Clouds are Black

Author: J. J. Blundell Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: When the clouds are black around you Lyrics: 1 When the clouds are black around you, When the stormy winds do blow, Let this blessed promise cheer you: “In the cloud I set My bow,” When discouragements dishearten, When the heart is faint and low, Listen! weary, drooping spirit; “In this cloud I set My bow.” 2 For in due time, if ye faint not, Ye shall reap what now ye sow; Sheaves of golden grain bear witness In the cloud was set the bow: If life’s battle presses sorely, Fierce and pow’rful be the foe, Hearken to Him voice still saying, “In the cloud I set My bow.” 3 For in faith’s whole armour clothèd Victory’s certain—this we know; We shall prove through fiercest conflict In the cloud was set the bow: When we come to death’s dark valley, Through in triumph we shall go; For He says, who never leaves us: “In this cloud I set My bow.” 4 Blessèd promise! sure and precious, Lighting darkness, conquering foe; Praise we Thee, that not in sunshine, But in cloud is set the bow: Then as round His throne we gather, All life’s mysteries we shall know; Comprehend why in the darkness Of the cloud He set His bow.

He Knows it All

Author: Fanny J. Crosby Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: O heart bereav'd and lonely Lyrics: 1 O heart bereav’d and lonely Whose brightest dreams have fled, Whose hopes like summer roses Are wither’d, crush’d, and dead; Though link by link is broken, And tears unseen may fall, Look up amid thy sorrow To Him who knows it all. 2 O cling to thy Redeemer, Thy Saviour, Brother, Friend; Believe and trust His promise To keep thee to the end: O watch and wait with patience, But question not His will; His arms of love and mercy Are round about thee still. 3 Lookup, the clouds are breaking, The storm will soon be o’er; And thou shalt reach the haven Where sorrows come no more. Look up, be not discouraged; Trust on, whate’er befall; Remember, O remember, Thy Saviour knows it all. Used With Tune: [O heart bereav'd and lonely]
