and to the weary rest.

my shield and hiding place,
my never-failing treasury, filled
with boundless stores of grace.

accept the praise I bring.

and cold my warmest thought;

I'll praise thee as I ought.

with every fleeting breath;
and may the music of thy name
refresh my soul in death. Topics: Christ Risen Reign and Priesthood; Our Response to Christ In Devotion; Devotion; Jesus Name; Jesus Names and images for Used With Tune: ST. PETER

now spreads the fame of his dear name
on all the winds that blow.

dark seas of trouble roll,
when faith has heard the Master’s word,
falls peace upon the soul.
4 O sing a song of Calvary,
its glory and dismay;
of him who hung upon the tree,
and took our sins away:
for he who died on Calvary
is risen from the grave,
and Christ, our Lord, by heaven adored,
is mighty now to save.

Eternal Life in Christ
Appears in 107 hymnals Scripture: John 6:67-69 First Line: When any turn from Zion's way Lyrics: 1 When any turn from Zion's way,
(As numbers often do)
Methinks I hear my Savior say,
"Wilt thou forsake me too?"
2 Ah Lord! with such a heart as mine,
Unless thou hold me fast,
My faith will fail, I shall decline,
And prove like them at last.
3 'Tis thou alone hast pow'r and grace,
To save a wretch like me;
To whom shall I then turn my face,
If I depart from thee?
4 Beyond a doubt I rest assur'd
Thou art the CHRIST of GOD;
Who hast eternal life secur'd,
By promise and by blood.
5 The help of men and angels join'd,
Could never reach my case;
Nor can I hope relief to find,
But in thy boundless grace.
6 No voice but thine can give me rest,
And bid my fears depart;
No love but thine can make me blest,
And satisfy my heart.
