Tarry with me, O my Savior

Author: Anon. Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 233 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Tarry with me, O my Saviour, For the day is passing by; See, the shades of evening gather, And the night is drawing nigh. 2 Many friends were gathered round me In the bright days of the past, But the grave has closed above them, And I linger here at last. 3 Deeper, deeper grow the shadows, Paler now, the glowing west, Swift the night of death advances, Shall it be the night of rest? 4 Feeble, trembling, fainting, dying, Lord, I cast myself on thee; Tarry with me through the darkness, While I sleep, still watch by me.

I Believe in God the Father

Author: Fanny Crosby Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1. I believe in God the Father, Who created Heav’n and earth; Made the stars to shine so brightly, Gave each living thing its birth. I believe in God the Father, And in Jesus Christ His Son, Who was crucified on Calv’ry For the sins that all have done. 2. I believe He died, was buried, Rose again, no more to die; And ascending to His Father, Took His seat with Him on high. I believe in God the Spirit, Sent to us from Heav’n above, And the Church our blessèd Savior Hath redeemed by His great love. 3. I believe in His forgiveness, And His wondrous power to save; In a glorious resurrection, And a life beyond the grave. I believe in God the Father, I believe in God the Son, And in God the Holy Spirit, Everlasting Three in One. Used With Tune: SEWARD

Christ Is Coming

Author: Jennie S. Mast Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: Christ is coming, quickly coming Lyrics: 1. Christ is coming, quickly coming, In a cloud of flaming fire; Some will rise in glorious brightness, Others sink beneath His ire. Oh, the glorious day of triumph, For the soul that’s robed in white! Saints will rise with shouts of victory, Sinners sink to endless night. 2. Yes, we know that Christ is coming, Soon we’ll hear the trumpet sound; We can meet Him, hallelujah! If in righteousness we’re found. But, this sinful world of darkness, In their sins, will sink to hell! Oh, the awful cries of anguish! Human tongues can never tell. 3. He is coming, quickly coming, Every eye shall see Him then; Oh, how sweet will be the meeting, Where we’ll never part again. Some will cry for rocks and mountains, For to hide them from His face, Those who now reject His mercy, And will not accept His grace. 4. Christ is coming, quickly coming, Hear the warning, ye that sleep, Oh, prepare your soul to meet Him, Or in anguish you will weep. If He comes and you’re not ready, You’ll be banished from His face, If you now reject His mercy, You’ll be lost without His grace. 5. Christ is coming, hallelujah! Shout His praises, all ye saints, For we know His smiles will greet us, As we enter thro’ the gates. We are ready, clad in whiteness, All our sins are washed away; With our blessèd, loving Savior, We’ll abide in endless day. Used With Tune: SANTO DOMINGO Text Sources: Echoes from Glory by Barney E.

[Refrain] 4 Though I meet with tribulation, Sorely tempted though I be, I remember Thou wast tempted, And rejoice to follow Thee. [Refrain] 5 Though Thou leadest through afflictions, Poor, forsaken though I be, Thou wast destitute, afflicted, And I only follow Thee. [Refrain]

Seraphs Laud Thee

Author: Thomas McCullagh Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: Seraphs laud Thee, God the Father, Lyrics: 1 Seraphs laud Thee, God the Father, In the sweetest, noblest lays; Can it be that Thou wouldst rather Listen unto children’s praise? Yes; Thou hearkenest to our voices, Children’s voices though they be; Take the glory each rejoices, Lord of all, to render Thee. 2 Cherubs praise Thee, God the Savior, In sublimest strains above; Wilt Thou grant to us Thy favor, And accept of children’s love? Yes; Thou listenest to our singing, Children’s singing though it be; Take the hearts we all are bringing, Sovereign Son, to Thee, to Thee. 3 Angels praise Thee, God the Spirit, Source of life and light and truth; Wilt Thou, for the Savior’s merit, Hear the simpler songs of youth? Thou receiv’st our adoration, Children’s homage though it be; Make our hearts a new creation, Holy Spirit, fit for Thee. 4 Triune God, the heavens hail Thee, Harpers, choirs, and white robed throng, Nor shall children’s voices fail Thee In the universal song. Now receive our highest praises, Children’s praises though they be; Then to bliss at last upraise us, Triune God, to worship Thee. Used With Tune: ISCHGL
