Joyfully, Joyfully, Onward we Move
Author: William Hunter, 1811-1877 Meter: 10.10.10.10 D Appears in 322 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Joyfully, joyfully, onward we move,
Bound for the land of bright spirits above;
Jesus, our Saviour, in mercy says, Come,
Joyfully, joyfully haste to your home.
Soon will our pilgrimage end here below,
Soon to the presence of God we shall go,
Then, if to Jesus our hearts have been given,
Joyfully, joyfully, rest we in heaven.
2 Death with its arrows may soon lay us low,
Safe in our Saviour, we fear not the blow;
Jesus hath broken the bars of the tomb,
Joyfully, joyfully, we will go home.
Bright will the morn of eternity dawn,
Death shall be conquered, his scepter be gone;
Over the plains of sweet Canaan we'll roam,
Joyfully, joyfully, safely at home.
Amen. Topics: Eternity Used With Tune: ONWARD

Faith Is Believing
Author: Daniel Otis Teasley Meter: 10.10.10.10 D Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: Faith is believing, the promise is true Lyrics: 1 Faith is believing, the promise is true,
Trusting in Jesus your strength to renew;
Resting so sweetly, secure on His word,
Shielded from danger with Jesus the Lord.
Refrain:
Faith is believing, simply receiving
What in His promise God has revealed;
Trust Him forever, doubt Him, no, never,
Till thy petition His Spirit hath sealed.
2 Faith is believing, why longer remain
Under the bondage of Satan’s domain?
See, though all blood-stained, the banner unfurled—
Faith is the victory that conquers the world. [Refrain]
3 Faith is believing, the soul’s happy rest,
Faith is believing, though sorely oppressed;
Singing in triumph whatever assail,
High on the mountains or low in the vale. [Refrain]
4 Faith is believing, then doubt Him no more,
Sell all your sorrows, your troubles give o’er;
Soar in the sunlight above every cloud,
Triumph forever, believing in God. [Refrain]

My bitter tears Thy pitying eye hath seen;
My fainting heart hath heard Thy voice divine;
My trembling hand asks but to rest in Thine. [Refrain]

No threat’ning woe can quail when Thou art near;
No tempter’s snare can turn my steps aside;
For in Thy care, I’m safe whate’er betide. [Refrain]

Never forgetting in slumber or sleep;
Folding them gently when night cometh on,
Going before them at break of the dawn.

Shepherd of Israel, Shepherd of love,
Watching Thy flock from the glory above!
Knowing how weary their wilderness way;
Praying for them—ever living to pray!

When the false hireling servant hath flown;
Laying Thy life down their pardon to win,
Shedding Thy blood to redeem them from sin! [Refrain]
3 Shepherd of Israel, strong is Thine arm;
Shielding Thy flock from each threatening harm;
Gathering the lambs as they falter and fall,
Safe in Thy bosom enfolding them all! [Refrain]

Soon to deliver Thy "little flock" here!
Just to behold Thee their richest reward,
Shepherd of Israel, Jesus, their Lord! [Refrain] Used With Tune: JAMAICA BAY Text Sources: Precious Jewels of Sacred Song, by W. Howard Doane (Louisville: The World Publishing Company, 1905)

Pillow thy head on His kind, loving breast;
Never a trial but Jesus can feel,
Never a sorrow His love will not heal.

Go to thy Savior, He calleth thee now;
Go with thy burden, whatever it be;
Jesus will tenderly share it with thee.

Seeth thy tears, like the raindrops that fall;
Hast thou been watching while others have slept?
Over thy spirit a watch He has kept. [Refrain]
3. Art thou discouraged thy labor to see
Yielding no fruit of rejoicing for thee?
Weary of sowing thy seed on the plain,
Waiting the harvest and reaping in vain. [Refrain]
4. Leave to the Savior the work thou hast wrought,
Think not thy seed has been scattered for naught;
Jesus has guarded each blade as it grew,
He has refreshed it with sunlight and dew. [Refrain] Used With Tune: PHARES

Ere His Spirit grieved from your soul depart;

Who in Christ the Savior their trust repose. [Refrain]

The Beautiful Story Of Old
Author: Arthur W. French Meter: 10.10.10.10 D Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: Jesus, our Lord, in a manger was born Refrain First Line: Such is the beautiful story of old Lyrics: 1 Jesus, our Lord, in a manger was born,
Ages ago on a beautiful morn;
Wise men led on by the light of a star,
Hastened to greet Him from countries afar.
Coming to worship Him, lowly and sweet,
Bringing rich presents to lay at His feet,
Frankincense, myrrh, costly treasures of gold,
Such is the beautiful story of old.
Refrain:
Such is the beautiful story of old,
Story by sages and prophets foretold;
Waken, earth’s children, your happy refrain,
Singing the beautiful story again.
2 Growing to manhood, our Savior we find,
Preaching and healing the sick and the blind,
Feeding the multitudes, walking the sea,
Tempted by Satan, yet no sin did He;
Doing the work of His Father, our God,
Footsore and weary as onward He trod,
Laughed at, derided with words harsh and cold,
This is the beautiful story of old. [Refrain]
3 Brought before Pilate, abused and reviled,
Cruelly smitten, His raiment defiled,
Suffering sorrow, in pain and in loss,
Crowned with thorns, and then nailed to the cross;
Shedding His blood there for you and for me,
Giving His life that mankind might be free,
Sadly and low tho’ the tale may be told,
Such is the story of Jesus, of old. [Refrain] Used With Tune: NIUE Text Sources: The Tree of Life be William Perkins and Byron Condo (Boston: G. D. Russell, 1878)
