I Know My Sin and Weakness
Author: Mrs. S. K. Bourne Appears in 4 hymnals Refrain First Line: This is my chief endeavor Lyrics: 1 I know my sin and weakness,
My faults and follies too,
Yet this is my endeavor,
And this one thing I do:
I’ll leave the past that I deplore,
And seeking things that are before,
I will press on to win the prize
That waits for me beyond the skies!
Refrain:
This is my chief endeavor,
With purpose firm and true;
I will press on to win the prize,
That waits for me beyond the skies,
Lord, this one thing I do!
2 To Thee, my precious Saviour,
My promise I renew,
And with my best endeavor,
Lord, this one thing I do:
Since Thou hast died my debt to pay,
Since Thou hast washed my sins away,
I trust Thy blood and righteousness,
And t’ward the prize I onward press. [Refrain]
3 Assist me, O my Saviour,
My heart and mind renew,
And help my weak endeavor,
While this one thing I do:
Since Thou hast shed Thy blood for me,
I consecrate my life to Thee;
And trust Thy mercy and Thy grace
To help me on to win the race. [Refrain] Topics: Christian Race Used With Tune: [I know my sin and weakness]

Sing, Children, Sing
Author: Mrs. S. K. Bourne Meter: 8.8.8.7.7.7.7 Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: Sing, children, sing! Lyrics: 1 Sing, children sing! sing, children sing!
Sing the joyful Easter story
How the mighty King of glory
Pass’d the everlasting doors,
Burst the tomb, and broke the bars,
Evermore to live on high
In the home beyond the sky.
2 Sing, children sing! sing, children sing!
Sing about that Easter morning,
When they came at early dawning,
And the stone was rolled away.
Sing the words the angels say,
“He is risen,—do not fear;
See the place—He is not here!”
3 Sing, children sing! sing, children sing!
Sing about the life immortal;
He has open’d wide the portal,
Calling us to enter in,
Safe from death and free from sin.
Joyfully receive the word
Of our blessed, risen Lord. Topics: Easter Used With Tune: BURTIS

O Beautiful Tree! Thy Leaves Are Green
Author: Mrs. S. K. Bourne Meter: Irregular Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O beautiful tree! thy leaves are green,
Thy branches are tall and fair,
But in thine arms no fruit is seen—
No luscious figs are there.
I’ve watched thy growth with a tender care,
I have loved thee, beautiful one!
And year by year thou hast grown so fair,
I’ve sought the fruit that thine arms should bear,
But thou hast borne me none.
2 Thy beauty pleases the loving eye,
I joy in thy grateful shade;
I hear thee praised by the passerby,
In the garden my Lord has made.
But, oh! my Master has looked on thee,
He has sought thy fruit in vain;
He has said, “Cut down that barren tree,
Uncumbered the gen’rous soil shall be,
I will not seek again!”
3 I’ve prayed at His feet for another year,
That still I might work with thee,
If haply thy branches rich figs might bear,
And thou be a fruitful tree.
And one more year my Lord will spare;
And labors and tears I give.
O beautiful tree! my life is a prayer,
That thou in the harvest ripe fruit may’st bear,
That my Lord may bid thee live! Topics: Barrenness Used With Tune: PATIENCE

The Way is Long and Dreary
Author: Adelaide Anne Procter Appears in 35 hymnals Refrain First Line: O Lamb of God who takest The sins of the world Lyrics: 1 The way is long and dreary,
The path is bleak and bare,
Our feet are worn and weary,
But we will not despair.
More heavy was Thy burden,
More desolate Thy way:
O Lamb of God, who takest
The sin of the world away,
Have mercy upon us.
2 The snows lie thick around us
In the dark and gloomy night,
The tempest roars above us,
The stars have hid their light;
But blacker was the darkness
‘Round Calv’ry’s cross that day:
O Lamb of God, who takest
The sin of the world away,
Have mercy upon us.
3 Our hearts are faint with sorrow
Heavy and sad to bear;
We dread the bitter morrow,
But we will not despair.
Thou knowest all our anguish,
And Thou wilt bid it cease
O Lamb of God, who takest
The sin of the world away,
O give to us Thy peace. Topics: Confidence in Christ; Via Crucis Used With Tune: VIA CRUCIS
