Pilgrim Stranger

Author: C.A. Tindley, D.D. Hymnal: SE2-1909 #1 (1909) First Line: Go, ye humble pilgrim stranger Lyrics: 1. Go, ye humble pilgrim stranger, Thro' this world of woe, He is, though so meek and lowly, More than all beside. Don't forget that God above you, Hath a gracious heart, He will never cease to love you, Or to take your part. 2. If your way is dark and lonely, He will be your guide, He is, though so meek and lowly, More than all beside. When the world in arms assail you, And your courage fail, Let Him fight your battle for you, And you will prevail. 3. When discouraged and forsaken, Run to Him in pray'r, Never has been one o'er-taken, Who resorted there. When the storms of life are beating, Hard upon your head, God will hide you, He is pleading, "Be ye not afraid." 4. If you choose to find a stranger, Put Him in the way, Tell him how to flee the danger, While it is called day. Tell him there's a precious fountain, Flowing free for all, Jesus Christ, on Calvary's mountain, Paid for Adam's fall. 5. Tell him that above a brother There's a Savior's love, If on earth he has no other, There's a Friend above. If he needs your help and kindness, Don't withhold your hand, Always of this be reminded, He's your fellow man. Languages: English Tune Title: [Go, ye humble pilgrim stranger]

When the hosts of hell assail, and my strength begins to fail, thou who never lost a battle, stand by me. 3. In the midst of faults and failures, stand by me; in the midst of faults and failures, stand by me. When I do the best I can, and my friends misunderstand, thou who knowest all about me, stand by me. 4. In the midst of persecution, stand by me; in the midst of persecution, stand by me. When my foes in battle array undertake to stop my way, thou who saved Paul and Silas, stand by me. 5. When I’m growing old and feeble, stand by me; when I’m growing old and feeble, stand by me. When my life becomes a burden, and I’m nearing chilly Jordan, O thou “Lily of the Valley,” stand by me. Languages: English Tune Title: [When the storms of life are raging]

Consolation

Author: C. A. Tindley, D.D. Hymnal: SE2-1909 #7 (1909) First Line: Ye pilgrims through this vale of tears Lyrics: 1. Ye pilgrims through this vale of tears, Come, let us cheer each other, Amid the danger's doubts and fear, Let each console his brother. Our way is often dark and hard, Temptations all around us, Unless we pray with one accord They surely will confound us. 2. We see the pit where others lie, All smitten by the Tempter, We too shall come to grief and die, If we to him surrender. We'll walk the blood-be-sprinkled way, The road that leads to glory, And as we go we'll sing and pray, And tell redemption's story. 3. While some are shouting all the time, Some other hearts are bleeding, They want the heav'nly peace to find For which their souls are pleading. Come, let us lead them through the gate, The way of sins confessing, The word of God will put them straight and they will find the blessing. 4. There may be some that's growing tired, Because the way is tedious, Let's take the Book that was inspir'd And tell them more 'bout Jesus. Tell them of Him who bled and died! The crucifixion story. Who rendered justice satisfied And then went home to glory. 5. We soon shall reach the shining shore, And see our dear Redeemer, Where we shall weep and sign no more, But praise His name forever. Our time is short and crosses great And often hard to carry, Who rendered justice satisfied And then went home to glory. Languages: English Tune Title: [Ye pilgrims through this vail of tears]

A Better Home

Author: C. A. Tindley Hymnal: SE2-1909 #10 (1909) First Line: Ever since I have been Refrain First Line: I have started out to find a better home Lyrics: 1. Ever since I have been Living in this world of sin, I have had trials almost ev'ry day. Always something, more or less, To destroy my happiness, And this is how I've come all the way.

It was when I was young I began to think upon My condition as a sinner unsave'd; And at once made up my mind, while i had sufficient time. I would bow on my knee and pray. 3. When I realized I had Found the Lord, I was so glad, For I thought all my trials would be done; That my way would always be One continuous jubilee, But I found out my trials had just begun. 4. Old satan tried to get Me to live a hypocrite, And to only have an outward form, He said time had changed the way, and in this enlightened day To do whate'er you please is no harm. 5. I tried it for awhile, Keeping up with every style, And was trying to get the crown without the cross; I found it would not do, For the word of God is true, And unless I lived upright I would be lost. 6. Then I put the world aside, Taking Jesus for my guide, I began to try and walk the narrow way; It is tedious, I admit, But I am not weary yet; I shall travel on until the perfect day.
