He Speaks Within

Author: Rev. F. L. Hosmer Hymnal: Christ in Song #120 (1908) First Line: Go not, my soul, in search of Him Lyrics: 1 Go not, my soul, in search of Him, Thou wilt not find him there, Not in the depths of shadow dim, Nor heights of upper air. For not in far off realms of space The Spirit hath its throne; In ev'ry heart it findeth place, And waiteth to be known. 2 Tho't answereth alone to tho't, And Soul with soul hath kin: The outward God he findeth not Who finds not God within. And if the vision come to thee Reveal'd by inward sign, Earth will be full of Deity, And with his glory shine. 3 O gift of gifts! O grace of grace! That God should condescend To make thy heart his dwelling place And be thy daily Friend! For not in far off realms of space The Spirit hath its throne; In ev'ry heart it findeth place, And waiteth to be known.

The Lord first empties whom he fills

Hymnal: Christ in Song #122 (1908) Lyrics: 1 The Lord first empties whom he fills, Casts down whom he would raise; He quickens when the letter kills, Exalting thus his praise. When he applies his healing blood Unto a sin-sick soul, This balsam, pow'rful, precious, good, Ne'er fails to make it whole. 2 On us he spent his life and blood, Our losses to retrieve; Mankind's redemption now holds good For sinners who believe. Lord, I believe! whate'er befall, A thankful heart be mine, A heart that answers to thy call, One that is wholly thine.

Thou Coming One, our wants relieve

Author: John Fawcett Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #484 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Thou coming One, our wants relieve In this our evil day; To all thy tempted followers give The power to watch and pray. Long as our fiery trials last, Long as the cross we bear, O let our soul on thee be cast, In all-prevailing prayer. 2 The power of interceding grace Give us in faith to claim; To wrestle till we see thy face, And know thy hidden name. Till then thy perfect love impart; Till thou appear below Be this the cry of every heart, "I will not let thee go." 3 I will not let thee go, unless Thou tell thy name to me; With all thy great salvation bless, And make me all like thee. Then let me on the mountain-top Behold thy open face, Where faith in sight is swallowed up, And prayer in joyful praise. Topics: The Christian Hymns for Social Worship Tune Title: PERSEVERANCE

On time's tempestuous ocean wide

Author: I. I. Leslie Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #808 (1886) Lyrics: 1 On time's tempestuous ocean wide, A gallant ship set sail, And out into the raging deep She stood before the gale, Well fitted to abide the storm, And angry water's foam, And bring the captives that she bore Unto her haven home. 2 Long was to be her voyage the time, Six thousand years almost, Ere she would make the highland hights, Along the heavenly coast; Yet with her sails expanded wide, On, on, she swiftly flew, Bearing with ardent hope and love Her passengers and crew. 3 Oft tempests have assailed her round, And stormy winds rose high; And dark have been the mountain waves That bore her to the sky; But o'er them all, with steady helm, She onward pressed her way; Her compass, true unto the pole, Guides her to endless day. 4 Long, long, she has been out, and now She nears her haven home; A beacon light hangs o'er her bow, And bids her thither come; And voices joyful oft are heard, And music swelling high: "The land! the land! the land ahead!" With rapture now they cry. 5 Now soon will she be safely moored And anchored in the bay; And all her passengers on shore Will keep a festal day; And long their songs of joy will rise Beneath high heaven's dome; They've passed the stormy sea of time, They've reached their haven home.

What though the angry waves roll high

Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #809 (1886) Lyrics: 1 What though the angry waves roll high, And darkness reigns around? Let hope be bright in every eye; Our ship is homeward bound. What though no moon nor stars appear Amid the gloom profound? We will not yield a place to fear; Our ship is homeward bound. 2 What though the lightnings glare above, And deafening thunders roar? Yet with the eye of faith and love We view the distant shore. We know that friends will meet us there, We loved in life before; And angel forms, all bright and fair, Line the immortal shore. 3 Then let the fearful thunders roar, And let the lightnings glare; We're nearing the eternal shore, And we are almost there. Then heave, ye waves, on every side, And onward, homeward bear Our fragile bark, 'gainst wind and tide; For we are almost there. 4 The coward peers, with trembling form, Into the gloom profound; But we can smile to view the storm; Our ship is homeward bound: And though for us, on time's dark wave No place of rest be found, O let our hearts be true and brave; Our ship is homeward bound.

Sabbath school

Hymnal: Linden Harp #50 (1855) First Line: How pleasant is the Sabbath school Refrain First Line: Sweet Sabbath school, place dear to me Lyrics: 1 How pleasant is the Sabbath school, With joy we enter there, Where little children learn to sing The hymn of praise and prayer, Sweet Sabbath school, place dear to me, Where'er through life I roam, My heart will often turn to thee, My childhood's Sabbath home. 2 There sacred songs remind us of The days when we were young; When we, like them, at Sabbath school, The praise of Jesus sung. Sweet Sabbath school, place dear to me, Where'er through life I roam, My heart will often turn to thee, My childhood's Sabbath home. 3 O holy place! where first we shed The penitential tear; Where youthful steps are taught to tread In paths of peace and prayer. Sweet Sabbath school, place dear to me, Where'er through life I roam, My heart will often turn to thee, My childhood's Sabbath home. 4 We'll ever love the Sabbath school, Its toil we'll freely share; That God will give it great increase, Shall be our latest prayer. Sweet Sabbath school, place dear to me, Where'er through life I roam, My heart will often turn to thee, My childhood's Sabbath home. 5 And when our labors here shall end, We hope in nobler strains To sing again our Sabbath songs Where endless Sabbath reigns. Sweet Sabbath school, place dear to me, Where'er through life I roam, My heart will often turn to thee, My childhood's Sabbath home. Languages: English Tune Title: SABBATH SCHOOL
