Let me go, 'tis Jesus calls me
Author: Anon. Appears in 56 hymnals First Line: Let me go where saints are going Lyrics: 1 Let me go where saints are going,
To the mansions of the best;
Let me go where my Redeemer
Has prepared his people's rest:
I would gain the realms of brightness,
Where they dwell forevermore;
I would share the joys that wait me
Over on the other shore.
Chorus:
Let me go, 'tis Jesus calls me,
Let me gain the realms of day;
Bear me over, angel pinions,
Longs my soul to be a-way.
2 Let me go where none are weary,
Where is raised no note of woe;
Let me go and bathe my spirit
In the rapture angels know:
Let me go, for bliss eternal
Lures my soul away, away,
And the victor's son triumphant
Thrills my heart, I cannot stay.
3 Let me go, why should I tarry?
What has earth to bind me here?
What but cares and toils and sorrows?
What but death and pain and fear?
Let me go, for hopes that cherished,
Blasted round me often lie:
Here I've gathered brightest flowers
But to see them fade and die.

Bread on the Waters
Author: Anon. Appears in 44 hymnals First Line: "Cast thy bread upon the waters" Lyrics: 1. "Cast thy bread upon the waters,
Ye who have but scant supply;
Angel eyes will watch above it;
You shall find it by and by;
He who in his righteous balance,
Doth each human action weigh,
Will your sacrifice remember,
Will your loving deeds repay.
2. "Cast thy bread upon the waters;
Sad and weary, worn with care,
Wherefore sitting in the shadow?
Surely you've a crumb to spare.
Can you not to those around you
Sing some little song of hope,
As you look with longing vision
Thro' faith's mighty telescope?
3. "Cast thy bread upon the waters,"
Ye who have abundant store;
It may float on many a billow,
It may strand on many a shore;
You may think it lost forever,
But, as sure as God is true,
In this life, or in the other,
It will yet return to you. Topics: Living His Life Giving Used With Tune: CHARITY
