Life let us cherish
Appears in 11 hymnals First Line: Life, let us cherish, while yet the taper glows Lyrics: 1 Life, let us cherish, while yet the taper glows,
And heavenly treasures grasp ere it close.
In vain we seek for earthly bliss;
The plants of joy, the fruits of peace,
Can never grow in soil like this:
Place all thy hopes in heaven.
Life, let us cherish, while yet the taper glows,
And heavenly treasures grasp ere it close.
2 Life let us cherish, while yet the taper glows,
And heavenly treasures grasp ere it close.
Our hearts in vain to riches cling,
Our gems are dim, our gold hath wings,
And, when possess'd, no comfort brings:
Lay up thy wealth in heaven.
3 Life let us cherish, while yet the taper glows,
And heavenly treasures grasp ere it close.
Set not thy heart on earthly fame,
Its highest gift's an empty name,
That quickly fades or ends in shame:
True glory comes from heaven. Used With Tune: LIFE LET US CHERISH

The joys of home
Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Sing we in harmony Lyrics: Chorus:
1 Sing we in harmony,
The sacred joys of home;
Sing ever gratefully,
The joys of home.
Solo:
For there is many a cheerless lot,
Where peaceful blessings do not flow;
No gentle words with friendship fraught,
To soothe the heart's deep woe.
Chorus:
Sing we in harmony,
The sacred joys of home;
Sing ever gratefully,
The joys of home.
2 Sing we in harmony,
The mighty power of love;
Our home shall peacefully be,
Like that above.
Solo:
Affection ne'er shall cease to glow,
And pureness dwell, unseen, but near,
And weary hearts shall ever know,
Peace, love and kindness here.
Sing we in harmony,
The mighty power of love;
Our home shall peacefully be,
Like that above. Used With Tune: [Sing we in harmony]

Jesus, My Friend
Author: Henry de Fluiter Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: I have a friend so dear Lyrics: 1. I have a friend so dear,
Constant and true is He,
Filling my heart with cheer,
So good to me.
He’s covered ev’ry sin and stain,
His pow’r now makes me whole again,
And soon with Him fore’er I’ll reign—
Jesus, my friend.
2. He’s promised to return
To this dark world below,
Though wicked men may spurn,
To Him I’ll go.
He’ll take me to my home on high,
Where I shall live and never die,
He’ll wipe all tears from ev’ry eye—
Jesus, my friend.
3. Then why should sorrow fill
Hearts that on Him rely,
His blessèd Peace, be still
Calms ev’ry cry.
Who fills with hope and courage now,
And at the last—I not not how—
Will place a crown upon my brow—
Jesus, my friend. Used With Tune: [I have a friend so dear]
Jesus, My Friend
