What a Friend

Author: Geo. Scriven Hymnal: CH1935 #43 (1935) First Line: What a Friend we have in Jesus Lyrics: 1 What a Friend we have in Jesus, All our sins and griefs to bear; What a privilege to carry Ev'rything to God in prayer. O, what peace we often forfeit, O, what needless pain we bear, All because we do not carry Ev'rything to God in prayer. 2 Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere? We should never be discouraged, Take it to the Lord in prayer. Can we find a friend so faithful, Who will all our sorrows share? Jesus knows our ev'ry weakness: Take it to the Lord in prayer. 3 Are we weak and heavy laden, Cumbered with a load of care? Precious Saviour, still our refuge,-- Take it to the Lord in prayer. Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer; In His arms he'll take and shield thee, Thou wilt find a solace there.

We Shall Sleep, But Not Forever

Author: Mary A. Kidder Hymnal: CH1935 #50 (1935) Lyrics: 1 We shall sleep, but not forever, There will be a glorious dawn! We shall meet to part, no, never, On the resurrection morn! From the deepest caves of ocean, From the desert and the plain, From the valley and the mountain, Countless throngs shall rise again. Refrain: We shall sleep, but not forever, There will be a glorious dawn! We shall meet, to part, no, never, On the resurrection morn! 2 When we see a precious blossom, That we tended with such care, Rudely taken from our bosom, How our aching hearts despair! Round its little grave we linger, Till the setting sun is low, Feeling all our hopes have perished With the flower we cherished so. [Refrain] 3 We shall sleep, but not forever, In the lone and silent grave: Blessed be the Lord that taketh, Blessed be the Lord that gave, In the bright, eternal city, Death can never, never come! In His own good time He’ll call us, From our rest, to home, sweet home. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [We shall sleep, but not forever]
