A Little Flock! So Calls He Thee

Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: CYBER #11252 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 A little flock! So calls He thee, Who bought thee with His blood; A little flock, disowned of men, But owned and loved of God. 2 A little flock! So calls He thee; Church of the first-born, hear! Be not ashamed to own the name; It is no name of fear. 3 A little flock! Yes, even so; A handful among men, Such is the purpose of thy God; So willeth He, Amen! 4 Not many rich or noble called, Not many great or wise; They whom God makes His kings and priests, Are poor in human eyes. 5 Church of the everlasting God, The Father’s gracious choice, Amid the voices of this earth, How feeble is thy voice! 6 Thy words amid the words of earth, How noiseless and how low! Amid the hurrying crowds of time, Thy steps how calm and slow! 7 But ’mid the wrinkled brows of earth, Thy brow how free from care; ’Mid the flushed cheeks of riot here, Thy cheek how pale and fair! 8 Amid the restless eyes of earth, How steadfast is thine eye, Fixed on the silent loveliness Of the far eastern sky. 9 A little flock! ’Tis well, ’tis well; Such be her lot and name; Thro’ ages past it has been so, And now ’tis still the same. 10 But the chief Shepherd comes at length; Her feeble days are o’er, No more a handful in the earth, A little flock no more. 11 No more a lily among thorns; Weary, and faint, and few, But countless as the stars of heaven, Or as the early dew. 12 Then entering the eternal halls, In robes of victory, That mighty multitude shall keep The joyous jubilee. 13 Unfading palms they bear aloft, Unfaltering songs they sing; Unending festival they keep, In presence of the King.

A Little Kingdom I Possess

Author: Louisa M. Alcott Hymnal: CYBER #3806 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1. A little kingdom I possess, Where thoughts and feelings dwell, And very hard I find the task Of governing it well; For passion tempts and troubles me, A wayward will misleads, And selfishness its shadow casts, On all my will and deeds. 2. How can I learn to rule myself, To be the child I should, Honest and brave, nor ever tire Of trying to be good? How can I keep a sunny soul To shine along life’s way? How can I tune my little heart, To sweetly sing all day? 3. Dear Father, help me with the love That castest out my fear! Teach me to lean on Thee and feel That thou art very near. That no temptation is unseen, No childish grief too small, Since Thou, with patience infinite, Dost soothe and comfort all. 4. I do not ask for any crown But that which all may win; Nor try to conquer any world Except the one within. Be Thou my Guide until I find, Led by a tender hand, Thy happy kingdom in myself And dare to take command. Languages: English Tune Title: A LITTLE KINGDOM

A Little Ship Was On The Sea

Author: Dorothy A. Thrupp Hymnal: CYBER #12608 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 A little ship was on the sea, It was a pretty sight; It sailed along so pleasantly, And all was calm and bright. When lo! a storm began to rise, The wind grew loud and strong; It blew the clouds across the skies, It blew the waves along. 2 And all, but One, were sore afraid Of sinking in the deep; His head was on a pillow laid, And He was fast asleep. "Master, we perish: Master, save!" They cried: their Master heard; He rose, rebuked the wind and wave, And stilled them with a word. 3 He to the storm says, "Peace, be still!" The raging billows cease; The mighty winds obey His will, And all are hushed to peace. Oh, well we know it was the Lord, Our Savior and our friend; Whose care of those who trust His word Will never, never end. 4 A noble ship, our country dear, Has weathered many a gale— Yet now a storm beats so severe That many stout hearts quail. But One who rides above the storm Can save us from all ill; We only wait to hear His voice Commanding, Peace, be still! 5 O Jesus, Master! hear, we pray Remove the chastening rod; Let not our foes exulting say, "There is no help in God." From threatening storms preserve our land, Rebuke the wind and waves; And let us, one united band, Rejoice in God, who saves. Languages: English Tune Title: MAZANDARAN

A Little Talk With Jesus

Author: Frances Jane (Fanny) Crosby Hymnal: CYBER #7840 Lyrics: 1 A little talk with Jesus, It smoothes the rugged road; It seems to help me onward When fainting ’neath my load; When, worn by care and sorrow, My eyes with tears are dim, There is nothing can give me comfort Like a little talk with Him. Refrain: A little talk with Jesus, A little talk with Jesus; There is nothing that giveth me comfort Like a little talk with Him. 2 A little talk with Jesus, Alone in secret prayer, It gives me strength and courage, Life’s many toils to bear; And though I sometimes falter, Because the way is dim, There is nothing can cheer me onward Like a little talk with Him. [Refrain] 3 I’ll trust and wait with patience Till my appointed time, And glory in the knowledge That such a trust is mine; Then, where no hearts are weary, No eyes with tears are dim, He will talk with me for ever, And I will talk with Him. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [A little talk with Jesus]

A Little That the Righteous Hold

Author: Anonymous Hymnal: CYBER #4061 Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Lyrics: 1. A little that the righteous hold Is better than the wealth untold Of many wicked men; Destroyed shall be their arm of pride, But they who in the Lord confide Shall be upholden then. 2. He knows the days the perfect live To them a heritage will give Which ever shall abide; In evil times no shame they know, And in the days of famine’s woe They shall be satisfied. 3. Although the wicked prospered seem, At last they vanish like a dream And perish in a day; Jehovah’s foes shall soon appear Like fields once fair, now brown and sere; Like smoke they fade away. 4. They borrow oft and pay not back; But righteous men do nothing lack, And give with gracious hand; Those cursed by Him shall be destroyed, But such as have His grace enjoyed, They shall possess the land.

Come take Thy longing children home, And end earth’s weary night! 2 A little while! with patience, Lord, I fain would ask, How long?

Each passing hour is hastening on The everlasting rest: Thou knowest well—the time thy God Appoints for thee is best: The morning star will soon arise; The glow is in the east.

When I Go Home

Author: Charles H. Gabriel Hymnal: CYBER #7321 First Line: A little while, and then the summer day Lyrics: 1. A little while, and then the summer day, When I go home; ’Tis lonesome winter now, but ’twill be May, When I go home; Beyond the gloom of moor and fen I see the welcome warm of those who wait for me, When I go home, when I go home. 2. Work ceases not in sunshine or in show’r, Till I go home; But in the stillness of the twilight hour, I dream of home; And when the night wind moans across the wold, I feel no dread of dark, or chill of cold— I dream of home, I dream of home. 3. All will be well, and all be happiness, When I go home; The wanderings all o’er, and loneliness, When I go home; There will be light at eventide for me, The light that never was on land or sea, When I go home, when I go home. 4. I’ll meet the loved ones I have lost awhile, When I go home; And, best of all, I’ll see my Savior smile, When I go home; Oh, what a joy thro’ all eternity, To sing the praise of Him who died for me, When I go home, when I go home.

"A Little While!" Our Lord Shall Come

Author: James G. Deck Hymnal: CYBER #10105 Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 "A little while!" our Lord shall come, And we shall wander here no more; He’ll take us to our Father’s home, Where He for us has gone before, To dwell with Him, to see His face, And sing the glories of His grace. 2 "A little while!" He’ll come again; Let us the precious hours redeem; Our only grief to give Him pain, Our joy to serve and follow Him; Watching and ready may we be, As those who long their Lord to see. 3 "A little while!" ’twill soon be past; Why should we shun the shame and cross? O let us in His footsteps haste, Counting for Him all else but loss; O how will recompense His smile The sufferings of this "little while!" 4 "A little while!" come, Savior, come! For Thee Thy bride has tarried long; Take Thy poor wearied pilgrims home, To sing the new eternal song, To see Thy glory and to be In everything conformed to Thee!
