Better Is One Day
How lovely is Your dwelling place O Lord Almighty My soul longs and even faints for You For here my heart is satisfied Within Your presence I sing beneath the shadow of Your wings Better is one day in Your courts Better is one day in Your house Better is one day in Your courts Than thousands elsewhere (2x) One thing I ask, and I would seek To see Your beauty To find You in the place Your glory dwells Your glory dwells (2x) Better is one day in Your courts Better is one day in Your house Better is one day in Your courts Than thousands elsewhere Jesus, Lover of My Soul, No. 508 Jesus, Lover of my soul, Let me to thy bosom fly, While the nearer waters roll, While the tempest still is high: Hide me, O my Saviour, hide, Till the storm of life is past; Safe into the haven guide, O receive my soul at last! Other refuge have I none, Hangs my helpless soul on thee; Leave, ah! leave me not alone, Still support and comfort me! All my trust on thee is stayed, All my help from thee I bring; Cover my defenseless head With the shadow of thy wing. Thou, O Christ, art all I want; More than all in thee I find: Raise the fallen, cheer the faint, Heal the sick, and lead the blind. Just and holy is thy Name; I am all unrighteousness; False and full of sin I am, Thou art full of truth and grace. Plenteous grace with thee is found, Grace to cover all my sin; Let the healing streams abound; Make and keep me pure within: Thou of life the Fountain art, Freely let me take of thee; Spring thou up within my heart, Rise to all eternity. Before The Throne of God Before the throne of God above I have a strong and perfect plea A great High Priest whose name is love Who ever lives and pleads for me My name is graven on His hands My name is written on His heart I know that while in heav'n He stands No tongue can bid me thence depart No tongue can bid me thence depart When Satan tempts me to despair And tells me of the guilt within Upward I look and see Him there Who made an end of all my sin Because the sinless Savior died My sinful soul is counted free For God the Just is satisfied To look on Him and pardon me To look on Him and pardon me Behold Him there, the risen Lamb My perfect, spotless Righteousness The great unchangeable I AM The King of glory and of grace One with Himself, I cannot die My soul is purchased by His blood My life is hid with Christ on high With Christ my Savior and my God O Lord of Hosts, How Lovely, No. 371 O Lord of Hosts, how lovely The place where thou dost dwell! Thy tabernacles holy In pleasantness excel. My soul is longing, fainting, Jehovah's courts to see; My heart and flesh are crying, O living God, for thee. Blest who thy house inhabit, They ever give thee praise; Blest all whom thou dost strengthen, Who love the sacred ways. So they from strength unwearied Go forward unto strength, Till they appear in Zion Before the Lord at length. O hear, Lord God of Jacob, To me an answer yield; The face of thine Anointed, Behold, O God, our shield. One day excels a thousand If spent thy courts within; I'll choose thy threshold, rather Than dwell in tents of sin. Our sun and shield, Jehovah, Will grace and glory give; No good will he deny them That uprightly do live. O God of Hosts, Jehovah, How blest is ev'ry one Who confidence reposes On thee, O Lord, alone.

"Wake, awake, for night is flying," the watchmen on the heights are crying; "Awake, Jerusalem, at last!" Midnight hears the welcome voices, and at the thrilling cry rejoices: "Come forth, ye virgins, night is past! The Bridegroom comes; awake, your lamps with gladness take; alleluia! And for his marriage feast prepare, for you must go to meet him there." 2. Zion hears the watchmen singing, and all her heart with joy is springing; she wakes, she rises from her gloom: for her Lord comes down all-glorious, the strong in grace, in truth victorious; her Star is ris'n, her Light is come! Ah, come, thou blessed Lord, O Jesus, Son of God, alleluia! We follow till the halls we see where thou hast bid us sup with thee. 3. Now let all the heav'ns adore thee, and men and angels sing before thee, with harps and cymbal's clearest tone; of one pearl each shining portal, where we are with the choir immortal of angels round thy dazzling throne; nor eye hath seen, nor ear hath yet attained to hear what there is ours; but we rejoice, and sing to thee our hymn of joy eternally. O Love that Will Not Let Me Go O love that will not let me go, I rest my weary soul in thee. I give thee back the life I owe, that in thine oceans depths its flow. May richer fuller be. O light followest all my way, I yield my flickering torch to thee. My heart restores its borrowed ray, that in thy sunshine's blaze its day. May brighter fairer be. O joy that seekest me through pain, I cannot close my heart to thee. I chase the rainbow through the rain, and feel the promise is not vain. That morn shall tearless be. O cross that liftest up my head, I dare not ask to fly from thee. I lay in dust's life's glory dead, and from the ground there blossoms red. Life that shall endless be.

His chariots of wrath the deep thunderclouds form, and dark is his path on the wings of the storm. 3) The earth with its store of wonders untold, Almighty, your pow'r has founded of old; has 'stablished it fast by a changeless decree, and round it has cast, like a mantle, the sea. 4) Your bountiful care what tongue can recite? It breathes in the air; it shines in the light; it streams from the hills; it descends to the plain; and sweetly distils in the dew and the rain. 5) Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail, in you do we trust, nor find you to fail; your mercies how tender, how firm to the end, our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend! 6) O measureless Might! Ineffable Love! While angels delight to hymn you above, the humbler creation, though feeble their lays, with true adoration shall lisp to your praise. Isaiah 40:28-29 Have you not known? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God (2x) the Creator of the ends of the earth He does not faint or grow weary; his understanding is unsearchable. He gives power to the faint, and to him who has no might he increases strength Lord Jesus, Comfort Me (A Communion Hymn) You have canceled my transgression, Jesus, by Your precious blood May I find therein salvation, happiness, and peace with God And since You for sinner's suffering On the cross was made an offering From all sin deliver me, That I wholly Yours may be All the pain You have endured All Your wounds, Your crown of thorn Hands and feet with nails through bored The reproach which You have borne Your back, ploughed with deep furrows Cross and grave and all Your sorrows Your blood-sweat and agony Oh Lord Jesus, comfort me Your back, ploughed with deep furrows Cross and grave and all Your sorrows Your blood-sweat and agony Oh Lord Jesus, comfort me Jesus, I am Resting, Resting, No. 188 1) Jesus, I am resting, resting in the joy of what thou art; I am finding out the greatness of thy loving heart.

[Refrain] 3) Simply trusting thee, Lord Jesus, I behold thee as thou art, and thy love, so pure, so changeless, satisfies my heart; satisfies its deepest longings, meets, supplies its ev'ry need, compasseth me round with blessings: thine is love indeed. [Refrain] 4) Ever lift thy face upon me as I work and wait for thee; resting 'neath thy smile, Lord Jesus, earth's dark shadows flee.

1) Praise to the Lord, the Almighty, the King of creation! O my soul, praise him, for he is thy health and salvation! All ye who hear, now to his temple draw near, join me in glad adoration. 2) Praise to the Lord, who o'er all things so wondrously reigneth, shelters thee under his wings, yea, so gently sustaineth! Hast thou not seen how thy desires e'er have been granted in what he ordaineth? 3) Praise to the Lord, who doth prosper thy work and defend thee! Surely his goodness and mercy here daily attend thee; ponder anew what the Almighty will do, if with his love he befriend thee. 4) Praise to the Lord, who with marvelous wisdom hath made thee, decked thee with health, and with loving hand guided and stayed thee. How oft in grief hath not he brought thee relief, spreading his wings to o'ershade thee! 5) Praise to the Lord! O let all that is in me adore him! All that hath life and breath, come now with praises before him! Let the amen sound from his people again; gladly fore'er we adore him. Call Jehovah Your Salvation Call Jehovah your salvation, Rest beneath th’Almighty’s shade In his secret habitation dwell, And never be dismayed There no tumult shall alarm you You shall dread no hidden snare Guile nor violence can harm you In eternal safeguard there From the sword at noonday wasting, From the noisome pestilence In the depth of midnight blasting, God shall be your sure defense He shall charge his angel legions Watch and ward o’er you to keep Though you walk through hostile regions Though in desert wilds you sleep Since, with pure and firm affection You on God have set your love With the wings of his protection He will shield you from above You shall call on him in trouble, He will hearken, he will save Here for grief reward you double, Crown with life beyond the grave Soul Adorn Yourself With Gladness, No. 421 1) Soul, adorn yourself with gladness, leave the gloomy haunts of sadness, come into the daylight's splendor, there with joy your praises render. Bless the One whose grace unbounded this amazing banquet founded; he, though heav'nly, high, and holy, deigns to dwell with you most lowly. 2) Hasten as a bride to meet him, eagerly and gladly greet him. There he stands already knocking; quickly, now, your gate unlocking, open wide the fast-closed portal, saying to the Lord immortal: "Come, and leave your loved one never; dwell within my heart forever." 3) Now in faith I humbly ponder over this surpassing wonder that the bread of life is boundless though the souls it feeds are countless; with the choicest wine of heaven Christ's own blood to us is given. Oh, most glorious consolation, pledge and seal of my salvation. 4) Jesus, source of lasting pleasure, truest friend and dearest treasure, peace beyond all understanding, joy into all life expanding: humbly now, I bow before you, love incarnate, I adore you; worthily let me receive you, and, so favored, never leave you. Isaiah 40:28-29 Have you not known? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God (2x) the Creator of the ends of the earth He does not faint or grow weary; his understanding is unsearchable. He gives power to the faint, and to him who has no might he increases strength Hallelujah, Praise Jehovah, O My Soul, No. 57
1) Hallelujah, praise Jehovah, O my soul, Jehovah praise; I will sing the glorious praises Of my God through all my days. Put no confidence in princes, Nor for help on man depend; He shall die, to dust returning, And his purposes shall end. 2) Happy is the man that chooses Israel's God to be his aid; He is blessed whose hope of blessing On the Lord his God is stayed. Heav'n and earth the Lord created, Seas and all that they contain; He delivers from oppression, Righteousness he will maintain. 3) Food he daily gives the hungry, Sets the mourning prisoner free, Raises those bowed down with anguish, Makes the sightless eyes to see. Well Jehovah loves the righteous, And the stranger he befriends, Helps the fatherless and widow, Judgment on the wicked sends. 4) Hallelujah, praise Jehovah, O my soul, Jehovah praise; I will sing the glorious praises Of my God through all my days. Over all God reigns for ever, Through all ages he is king; Unto him, your God, O Zion, Joyful hallelujahs sing. All I Owe When this passing world is done, When has sunk yon glaring sun, When we stand with Christ in glory, Looking o'er life's finished story, Then, Lord, shall I fully know, Not till then, how much I owe. Chorus: All I owe you paid for me From all I owe I’ve been set free And all I owe proves your great mercy to me When I stand before your throne, Dressed in beauty not my own, When I see you as you are Love you with unsinning heart, Then, Lord, shall I fully know, Not till then, how much I owe. Bridge: Chosen not for good in me, Wakened up from wrath to flee, Hidden in the Saviour's side, By the Spirit sanctified, Teach me, Lord, on earth to show, By my love, how much I owe. How Deep the Father's Love For Us How deep the Father’s love for us, How vast beyond all measure, That He should give His only Son To make a wretch His treasure. How great the pain of searing loss – The Father turns His face away, As wounds which mar the Chosen One Bring many sons to glory. Behold the man upon a cross, My sin upon His shoulders; Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice Call out among the scoffers. It was my sin that held Him there Until it was accomplished; His dying breath has brought me life – I know that it is finished. I will not boast in anything, No gifts, no power, no wisdom; But I will boast in Jesus Christ, His death and resurrection. Why should I gain from His reward? I cannot give an answer; But this I know with all my heart – His wounds have paid my ransom. I Heard the Voice of Jesus Say, No. 304 1) I heard the voice of Jesus say, "Come unto me and rest; lay down, O weary one, lay down your head upon my breast." I came to Jesus as I was, weary and worn and sad; I found in him a resting place, and he has made me glad. 2) I heard the voice of Jesus say, "Behold, I freely give the living water; thirsty one, stoop down and drink, and live." I came to Jesus, and I drank of that life-giving stream; my thirst was quenched, my soul revived, and now I live in him. 3) I heard the voice of Jesus say, "I am this dark world's Light; look unto me, your morn shall rise, and all your day be bright." I looked to Jesus and I found in him my Star, my Sun; and in that light of life I'll walk, till trav'ling days are done. On Jordan's Stormy Banks I Stand 1. On Jordan’s stormy banks I stand, And cast a wishful eye To Canaan’s fair and happy land, Where my possessions lie. 2. All o’er those wide extended plains, Shines one eternal day; There God the Son forever reigns, And scatters night away. Chorus: I am bound, I am bound I am bound for promised land, I am bound, I am bound I am bound for promised land 3. No chilling winds nor poisonous breath Can reach that healthful shore; Sickness, sorrow, pain and death, Are felt and feared no more.(chorus) 4. When shall I reach that happy place, And be forever blessed? When shall I see my Father’s face, And in His bosom rest?(chorus) Wake, Awake for Night is Flying, Trinity No.317
1. "Wake, awake, for night is flying," the watchmen on the heights are crying; "Awake, Jerusalem, at last!" Midnight hears the welcome voices, and at the thrilling cry rejoices: "Come forth, ye virgins, night is past! The Bridegroom comes; awake, your lamps with gladness take; alleluia! And for his marriage feast prepare, for you must go to meet him there." 2. Zion hears the watchmen singing, and all her heart with joy is springing; she wakes, she rises from her gloom: for her Lord comes down all-glorious, the strong in grace, in truth victorious; her Star is ris'n, her Light is come! Ah, come, thou blessed Lord, O Jesus, Son of God, alleluia! We follow till the halls we see where thou hast bid us sup with thee. 3. Now let all the heav'ns adore thee, and men and angels sing before thee, with harps and cymbal's clearest tone; of one pearl each shining portal, where we are with the choir immortal of angels round thy dazzling throne; nor eye hath seen, nor ear hath yet attained to hear what there is ours; but we rejoice, and sing to thee our hymn of joy eternally. O the Deep, Deep Love of Jesus! No. 535 1) O the deep, deep love of Jesus! Vast, unmeasured, boundless, free, rolling as a mighty ocean in its fullness over me. Underneath me, all around me, is the current of thy love; leading onward, leading homeward, to thy glorious rest above. 2) O the deep, deep love of Jesus! Spread his praise from shore to shore; how he loveth, ever loveth, changeth never, nevermore; how he watches o'er his loved ones, died to call them all his own; how for them he intercedeth, watcheth o'er them from the throne. 3) O the deep, deep love of Jesus! Love of ev'ry love the best: 'tis an ocean vast of blessing, 'tis a haven sweet of rest. O the deep, deep love of Jesus! 'Tis a heav'n of heav'ns to me; and it lifts me up to glory, for it lifts me up to thee. Poor Sinner Dejected with Fear 1. Poor sinner, dejected with fear, Unbosom thy mind to the Lamb; No wrath on His brow He does wear, Nor will He poor mourners condemn; His arm of omnipotent grace Is able and willing to save; A sweet and a permanent peace He’ll freely and faithfully give. 2. Come just as thou art, with thy woe, Fall down at the feet of the Lamb; He will not, He cannot say, “Go”, But surely will take out thy stain A fountain is opened for sin, And thousands its virtues have proved He’ll take thee, and plunge thee therein, And wash thee from filth in His blood. 3. The soul that on Jesus relies, He’ll never, no never deceive; He freely and faithfully gives More blessings than we can conceive; Yea, down to old age He will keep, Nor will He forsake us at last; He knows and is known by His sheep; They’re His, and He will hold them fast. My Lord, I Did Not Choose You VERSE 1 My Lord, I did not choose You For that could never be My heart would still refuse You Had You not chosen me You took the sin that stained me You cleansed me, made me new Of old You have ordained me That I should live in You CHORUS My Lord, I did not choose You For that could never be My heart would still refuse You Had You not chosen me VERSE 2 Unless Your grace had called me And taught my opening mind The world would have enthralled me To heavenly glories blind VERSE 3 My heart knows none above You For Your rich grace I thirst I know that if I love You You must have loved me first To God Be The Glory, No.55
1) To God be the glory, great things he hath done! So loved he the world that he gave us his Son, Who yielded his life an atonement for sin, And opened the life gate that we may go in. Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, Let the earth hear his voice! Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, Let the people rejoice! O come to the Father through Jesus the Son, And give him the glory, great things he hath done! 2) O perfect redemption, the purchase of blood! To ev'ry believer the promise of God; The vilest offender who truly believes, That moment from Jesus forgiveness receives. 3) Great things he hath taught us, great things he hath done, And great our rejoicing through Jesus the Son; But purer, and higher, and greater will be Our wonder, our transport, when Jesus we see. The King of Love My Shepherd Is 1) The King of love my Shepherd is, Whose goodness faileth never; I nothing lack if I am His, And He is mine forever.

The King of love my Shepherd is, I'll praise His name forever Father of Mercies, in Your Word, No. 144 1) Father of mercies, in thy Word What endless glory shines; Forever be thy Name adored For these celestial lines. 2) Here may the wretched sons of want Exhaustless riches find Riches above what earth can grant And lasting as the mind. 3) Here the Redeemer's welcome voice Spreads heav'nly peace around; And life and everlasting joys Attend the blissful sound. 4)O may these heav'nly pages be My ever dear delight; And still new beauties may I see, And still increasing light. 5) Divine Instructor, gracious Lord, Be thou for ever near; Teach me to love thy sacred Word, And view my Saviour there. All Glory Be to Christ 1) Should nothing of our efforts stand No legacy survive Unless the Lord does raise the house In vain its builders strive To you who boast tomorrow's gain Tell me what is your life A mist that vanishes at dawn All glory be to Christ! All glory be to Christ our king! All glory be to Christ! His rule and reign we'll ever sing All glory be to Christ! 2) His will be done His kingdom come On earth as is above Who is Himself our daily bread Praise Him the Lord of love Let living water satisfy The thirsty without price We'll take a cup of kindness yet All glory be to Christ! 3) When on the day the great I Am The faithful and the true The Lamb who was for sinners slain Is making all things new Behold our God shall live with us And be our steadfast light And we shall ere his people be All glory be to Christ!

Your strong arm will guide us, our God is beside us, to you, our great Redeemer, forever be praise. The Look VERSE 1 I saw one hanging on a tree In agony and blood Who fixed His loving eyes on me As near His cross I stood And never till my dying breath Will I forget that look It seemed to charge me with His death Though not a word He spoke VERSE 2 My conscience felt and owned the guilt And plunged me in despair I saw my sins His blood had spilt And helped to nail Him there But with a second look He said “I freely all forgive This blood is for your ransom paid I died that you might live” CHORUS Forever etched upon my mind Is the look of Him who died The Lamb I crucified And now my life will sing the praise Of pure atoning grace That looked on me and gladly took my place VERSE 3 Thus while His death my sin displays For all the world to view Such is the mystery of grace It seals my pardon too With pleasing grief and mournful joy My spirit now is filled That I should such a life destroy Yet live by Him I killed It Is Well, No. 691 1.

"Wake, awake, for night is flying," the watchmen on the heights are crying; "Awake, Jerusalem, at last!" Midnight hears the welcome voices, and at the thrilling cry rejoices: "Come forth, ye virgins, night is past! The Bridegroom comes; awake, your lamps with gladness take; alleluia! And for his marriage feast prepare, for you must go to meet him there." 2. Zion hears the watchmen singing, and all her heart with joy is springing; she wakes, she rises from her gloom: for her Lord comes down all-glorious, the strong in grace, in truth victorious; her Star is ris'n, her Light is come! Ah, come, thou blessed Lord, O Jesus, Son of God, alleluia! We follow till the halls we see where thou hast bid us sup with thee. 3. Now let all the heav'ns adore thee, and men and angels sing before thee, with harps and cymbal's clearest tone; of one pearl each shining portal, where we are with the choir immortal of angels round thy dazzling throne; nor eye hath seen, nor ear hath yet attained to hear what there is ours; but we rejoice, and sing to thee our hymn of joy eternally. One Day He's Coming, No. 327 1. One day when heaven was filled with his praises, one day when sin was as black as could be, Jesus came forth to be born of a virgin -- Dwelt amongst men, my example is he! Refrain: Living, he loved me; dying, he saved me; buried, he carried my sins far away; rising, he justified freely, forever: one day he's coming - O, glorious day! 2. One day they led him up Calvary's mountain, one day they nailed him to die on the tree; suffering anguish, despised and rejected: bearing our sins, my Redeemer is he! [Refrain] 3. One day they left him alone in the garden, one day he rested, from suffering free; angels came down o'er his tomb to keep vigil; hope of the hopeless, my Savior is he! [Refrain] 4. One day the grave could conceal him no longer, one day the stone rolled away from the door; then he arose, over death he had conquered; now is ascended, my Lord evermore! [Refrain] 5. One day the trumpet will sound for his coming, one day the skies with his glories will shine; wonderful day, my beloved ones bringing; glorious Savior, this Jesus is mine! [Refrain] See The Conqueror See the Conqueror mounts in triumph, see the King in royal state Riding on the clouds His chariot to his heavenly palace gate Hark the choirs of angel voices Joyful alleluias sing And the portals high are lifted To receive their heavenly King Who is this that comes in glory with the trump of jubilee? Lord of battles, God of armies, He has gained the victory! He who on the cross did suffer! He who from the grave arose! He has vanquished sin and satan! He by death has spoiled his foes! Thou hast raised our human nature in the clouds to God's right hand There we sit in heavenly places, there with Thee in glory stand Jesus reigns adorned by angels Man with God is on the throne Mighty Lord in Thine ascension We by faith behold our own We by faith behold our own |
