"Wine is a Mocker"

Author: Rev. E. G. Taylor Hymnal: MSCC1879 #83 (1879) First Line: Wine is a mocker! and strong drink is raging Refrain First Line: The Bible, the Bible, the Bible says so Lyrics: 1 Wine is a mocker! and strong drink is raging, For so does the Bible declare: Oh, touch not the glass, then, however engaging, Of all its allurements beware. Chorus: The Bible, the Bible, the Bible says so, That win is a mocker we know, ah, we know. 2 Wise is a mocker! though seems it so charming, Though friends call it wholesome and good; There's mischief there lurking that ever is harming, To fire and to poison the blood. [Chorus] 3 Win is a mocker! it leads into sinning The thousands who perish from drink: 'Tis here that the drunkard has had his beginning, The first step that caused him to sink. [Chorus] 4 Wine is a mocker! at first 'tis alluring, At last like an adder it stings: And bites like a serpent, with poison enduring, And mis'ry and wretchedness brings. [Chorus] 5 Wine is a mocker! the social glass shun it, Oh, linger not where 'tis in sight. Oh, dash it away from you, look not upon it, Stand firm and be true to the right. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [Wine is a mocker! and strong drink is raging]

There's a Light in the Valley

Author: P. P. Bliss Hymnal: MSCC1879 #84 (1879) First Line: Thro' the valley of the shadow I must go Lyrics: 1 Thro' the valley of the shadow I must go, Where the cold waves of Jordan roll; But the promise of my Shepherd will I know, Be the rod and the staff to my soul. Even now down the valley as I glide, I can hear my Savior say, “Follow me!” And with him I’m not afraid to cross the tide, There’s a light in the valley for me. There’s a light in the valley, There’s a light in the valley, There’s a light in the valley for me, And no evil will I fear, While my Shepherd is so near, There’s a light in the valley for me. 2 Now the rolling of the billows I can hear, As they beat on the turf-bound shore; But the beacon light of love so bright and clear, Guides my bark, frail and lone, safely o’er. I shall find down the valley no alarms, For my Savior’s blessed smile I can see; He will bear me in his loving, mighty arms, There’s a light in the valley for me. There’s a light in the valley, There’s a light in the valley, There’s a light in the valley for me, And no evil will I fear, While my Shepherd is so near, There’s a light in the valley for me.

Where the lilies blossom in fadeless spring, And never a heart grows old, Where the glad new song is the song they sing, Are the lambs of the Upper Fold. Lambs of the Upper Fold, Lambs of the upper fold, Where the glad new song is the song they sing, Are the lambs of the Upper Fold. 2 There are tiny mounds where the hopes of earth Were laid 'neath the tear-wet mold, But the light that paled at the stricken hearth, Was joy to the Upper Fold. Oh, the white stone beareth a new name now, That never on earth was told, And the tender Shepherd doth guard with care The lambs of the Upper Fold.

He Carries the Lambs in His Bosom

Hymnal: MSCC1879 #90 (1879) First Line: A sweet, golden head had forgotten life's way Lyrics: 1 A sweet, golden head had forgotten life's way, Asleep on its pillow of roses, Wee hands shutting close as if tired of play, Like buds which the summer discloses; The beautiful song of my birdie was still, And over the lips of my blossom The disciples lay white as the frost on the rill, When a spirit sang low in my spirit at will, "He carries the lambs in his bosom, He carries the lambs in his bosom." 2 There's never a lamb from love's sorrowful fold But wanders in fields that are vernal, And never a bud hid away from the cold But blooms in the summer eternal; When storms sweep the hill, and the night gathers deep, I think of my paradise blossom; I hear the same song for the weary that weep, The weakest are safest, for over the steep, "He carries the lambs in his bosom, He carries the lambs in his bosom."
