Almighty Father, bless the word

Almighty God, thy word is cast

Author: John Cawood Hymnal: SDAH1886 #190 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Almighty God, thy word is cast Like seed upon the ground; O let the dew of heaven descend, And shed its influence round. 2 Let not the foe of Christ and man This holy seed remove; May it take root in every heart, And grow in faith and love. 3 Let not this life's deceitful cares, Nor worldly wealth and joy, Nor scorching beam, nor stormy blast, The rising plant destroy. 4 Where'er the word of life is sown, A large increase bestow, That all who hear thy message, Lord, Its saving power may know.

Almost persuaded now to believe

Author: P. P. B. Hymnal: SDAH1886 #1283 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Almost persuaded now to believe; Almost persuaded Christ to receive. Seems now some soul to say, "Go Spirit, go thy way, Some more convenient day On thee I'll call." 2 Almost persuaded, come, come today; Almost persuaded; turn not away. Jesus, invites you here, Angels are ling'ring near, Prayers rise from hearts so dear; O wand'rer come! 3 Almost persuaded; harvest is past; Almost persuaded doom comes at last! "Almost" can not avail; "Almost" is but to fail! Sad, sad that bitter wail "Almost, but lost!" Topics: Bible Songs Invitation Scripture: Acts 26:28 Tune Title: ALMOST PERSUADED

Am I a soldier of the cross

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: SDAH1886 #599 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Am I a soldier of the cross, A follower of the Lamb? And shall I fear to own his cause? Or blush to speak his name? 2 Must I be carried to the skies On flowery beds of ease, Whilst others fought to win the prize, And sailed through bloody seas? 3 Are there no foes for me to face? Must I not stem the flood? Is this vile world a friend of grace, To help me on to God? 4 Sure I must fight if I would reign; Increase my courage, Lord; I'll bear the toil, endure the pain, Supported by thy word. 5 Thy saints in all this glorious war Shall conquer, though they die; They see the triumph from afar, With faith's discerning eye. 6 When that illustrious day shall rise, And all thy armies shine In robes of victory through the skies, The glory shall be thine.

Where are the brother keepers

Author: F. E. B. Hymnal: SDAH1886 #1234 (1886) First Line: Am I my brother's keeper? Lyrics: 1 Am I my brother's keeper? Or serving self alone? Are none around me better Since I the way have known? Do any faint or falter, And in the darkness fall, Because my lamp burns dimly, Or gives no light at all? Chorus: Where are the brother keepers, The faithful and the true? Where are the brother keepers? What answer offer you? Our heart should long for others The love of Christ to share. Where are the brothers? The Lord asks, Where? 2 If envy rules the spirit, Perhaps it is because A brother's gift is better, As Abel's off'ring was! This rule of truth eternal Shall hidden motives tell: They only are accepted Who do their duties well. [Chorus] 3 Are there no words of comfort To cheer the hearts that mourn? Or for the weak and erring No burdens to be borne? God help us to be brothers, And firm as brothers stand: For love to God and neighbor Should travel hand in hand. [Chorus] Topics: Special Department Bible Songs Tune Title: AM I MY BROTHER'S KEEPER?

Amazing grace! how sweet the sound

Author: John Newton Hymnal: SDAH1886 #441 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Amazing grace! how sweet the sound That saved a wretch like me! I once was lost, but now am found; Was blind, but now I see. 2 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, And grace my fears relieved; How precious did that grace appear, The hour I first believed! 3 Through many dangers, toils, and snares, I have already come; 'Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far, And grace will lead me home. 4 The earth shall soon dissolve like snow, The sun forbear to shine; But God, who called me here below, Will be forever mine.

Among the mountain trees

Author: Anon. Hymnal: SDAH1886 #334 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Among the mountain trees The winds were whispering low, And night's ten thousand harmonies Were harmonies of woe; A voice of grief was on the gale, It came from Kedron's gloomy vale. 2 It was the Saviour's prayer That on the silence broke, Imploring strength from heaven to bear The sin-avenging stroke; As in Gethsemane he knelt, And pangs unknown his bosom felt. 3 The fitful starlight shone In dim and misty gleams; Deep was his agonizing groan, And large the vital streams Which trickled to the dewy sod, While Jesus raised his voice to God. 4 The chosen three that staid Their nightly watch to keep, Left him through sorrows deep to wade, And gave themselves to sleep; Meekly and sad he prayed alone, Strangely forgotten by his own. 5 Along the streamlet's bank The reckless traitor came, And heavy on his bosom sank The load of guilt and shame; Yet unto those who waited nigh, He gave the Lamb of God to die! 6 Among the mountain trees The winds were whispering low, And night's ten thousand harmonies Were harmonies of woe; From cruel voices filled the gale That came from Kedron's gloomy vale.

An angel's voice now breaks upon the ear

Author: R. F. Cottrell Hymnal: SDAH1886 #1187 (1886) Lyrics: 1 An angel's voice now breaks upon the ear, In solemn tones, a message loud and clear, To every nation, kindred, people, tongue: "Fear God and give him praise his judgment's come. 2 Another angel follows in the train; Listen, O earth, and catch another strain: Great Babylon is fallen in her pride; Nations have shared her win her Lord denied. 3 Now the third angel lifts his voice, O, hark! If any worship beast, or bear his mark, The same, unmingled wrath shall surely drink, And in the lake of fire at last shall sink. 4 Here is the patience of the saints who wait Till Jesus comes and ends their mortal state; They God's commandments keep, pure from above, And faith of Jesus, in the bond of love.

And art thou, gracious Master, gone

Author: Anon. Hymnal: SDAH1886 #657 (1886) Lyrics: 1 And art thou, gracious Master, gone, A mansion to prepare for me? Shall I behold thee on thy throne? Shall I forever dwell with thee? Then let the world approve or blame, I'll triumph in thy glorious name. 2 Should I, to gain the world's applause, Or to escape its sharpest frown, Refuse to countenance thy cause, And make thy people's lot my own, What shame would fill me in that day When thou thy glory shalt display! 3 And what is man, or what his smile? The terror of his anger what? Like grass he flourishes awhile, But soon his place shall know him not; Through fear of such an one, shall I The Lord of heaven and earth deny? 4 No; let the world cast out my name, And vile account me, if it will; If to confess the Lord be shame, I purpose to be viler still: For thee, my God, I all resign, Content, if I can call thee mine.
