Hallelujah, he abides with me! , ¶ P U H M R L F L Q J night and day, As I walk the narrow way, For the Comforter abides with me
2. Once my heart was full of sin, Once I had no peace within Till I heard how Jesus died upon the tree, Then I fell down at his feet, And there came a peace so sweet Now the Comforter abides with me.
3. He is with me everywhere, And he knows my every care, I'm as happy as a bird and just as free For the spirit has control, Jesus satisfies my soul, Since the Comforter abides with me.
4. There's no thirsting for the things Of the world - they've taken wings; Long ago I gave them up, and instantly; All my night was turned to day, All my burdens rolled away, Now the Comforter abides with me. Herbert Buffum RH.217

187 1. Jesus, I my cross have taken, All to leave and follow Thee. Destitute, despised, forsaken, Thou from hence my all shall be. Perish every fond ambition, All I’ve sought or hoped or known. Yet how rich is my condition! God and heaven are still my own
2. Let the world despise and leave me, They have left my Saviour, too. Human hearts and looks deceive me; Thou art not, like them, untrue. O while Thou dost smile upon me, God of wisdom, love, and might, Foes may hate and friends disown me, Show Thy face and all is bright.
3. Man may trouble and distress me, ’Twill but drive me to Thy breast Life with trials hard may press me; Heaven will bring me sweeter rest. Oh, ’tis not in grief to harm me While Thy love is left to me; Oh, ’t’were not in joy to charm me, Were that joy unmixed with Thee.
4. Go, then, earthly fame and treasure, Come disaster, scorn and pain In Thy service, pain is pleasure, With Thy favor, loss is gain
74
I have called Thee Abba Father, I have stayed my heart on Thee Storms may howl, and clouds may gather; All must work for good to me.
5. Soul, then know thy full salvation Rise o’er sin and fear and care Joy to find in every station, Something still to do or bear. Think what Spirit dwells within thee, Think what Father’s smiles are thine, Think that Jesus died to win thee, Child of heaven, canst thou repine.
6. Haste thee on from grace to glory, Armed by faith, and winged by prayer. Heaven’s eternal days before thee, God’s own hand shall guide us there. Soon shall close thy earthly mission, Soon shall pass thy pilgrim days, Hope shall change to glad fruition,
Faith to sight, and prayer to praise. Henry Lite

410 1. When upon life’s billows you are tempest- tossed, When you are discouraged, thinking all is lost Count your many blessings, name them one by one,
164
And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.
Count your blessings, name them one by one, Count your blessings, see what God hath done. Count your blessings, name them one by one, And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.
2. Are you ever burdened with a load of care? Does the cross seem heavy you are called to bear? Count your many blessing, every doubt will fly, And you will be singing as the days go by 3. When you look at others with their lands and gold, Think that Christ has promised you His wealth untold, Count your many blessings, money cannot buy Your reward in heaven, nor your home on high

Do not be discouraged, God is over all, Count your many blessings, angels will attend, Help and comfort give you to your journey’s end. Johnson Oatman Jr. RH 427

419 1. Will your anchor hold in the storms of life?
When the clouds unfold their wings of strife; When the strong tides lift and the cables strain, Will your anchor drift, or firm remain?
We have an anchor that keeps the soul Steadfast and sure while the billows roll: Fastened to the Rock which cannot move, Grounded firm and deep in W K H 6 D Y L R X U ¶ V O R Y H
2. It is safely moored, ‘twill the storm withstand, For ‘tis well secured by the Saviour’s hand; And the cables passed from His heart to mine, Can defy the blast, through strength divine
3. It will firmly hold in the straits of fear, When the breakers have told the reef is near, Though the tempest rave and the wild winds blow, Not an angry wave shall our bark o’erflow.
169
4. It will surely hold in the floods of death, When the waters cold, chill our latest breath On the rising tide it can never fail, While our hopes abide within the veil!

187 1. Jesus, I my cross have taken, All to leave and follow Thee. Destitute, despised, forsaken, Thou from hence my all shall be. Perish every fond ambition, All I’ve sought or hoped or known. Yet how rich is my condition! God and heaven are still my own
2. Let the world despise and leave me, They have left my Saviour, too. Human hearts and looks deceive me; Thou art not, like them, untrue. O while Thou dost smile upon me, God of wisdom, love, and might, Foes may hate and friends disown me, Show Thy face and all is bright.
3. Man may trouble and distress me, ’Twill but drive me to Thy breast Life with trials hard may press me; Heaven will bring me sweeter rest. Oh, ’tis not in grief to harm me While Thy love is left to me; Oh, ’t’were not in joy to charm me, Were that joy unmixed with Thee.
4. Go, then, earthly fame and treasure, Come disaster, scorn and pain In Thy service, pain is pleasure, With Thy favor, loss is gain
74
I have called Thee Abba Father, I have stayed my heart on Thee Storms may howl, and clouds may gather; All must work for good to me.
5. Soul, then know thy full salvation Rise o’er sin and fear and care Joy to find in every station, Something still to do or bear. Think what Spirit dwells within thee, Think what Father’s smiles are thine, Think that Jesus died to win thee, Child of heaven, canst thou repine.
6. Haste thee on from grace to glory, Armed by faith, and winged by prayer. Heaven’s eternal days before thee, God’s own hand shall guide us there. Soon shall close thy earthly mission, Soon shall pass thy pilgrim days, Hope shall change to glad fruition,
Faith to sight, and prayer to praise. Henry Lite

419 1. Will your anchor hold in the storms of life?
When the clouds unfold their wings of strife; When the strong tides lift and the cables strain, Will your anchor drift, or firm remain?
We have an anchor that keeps the soul Steadfast and sure while the billows roll: Fastened to the Rock which cannot move, Grounded firm and deep in W K H 6 D Y L R X U ¶ V O R Y H
2. It is safely moored, ‘twill the storm withstand, For ‘tis well secured by the Saviour’s hand; And the cables passed from His heart to mine, Can defy the blast, through strength divine
3. It will firmly hold in the straits of fear, When the breakers have told the reef is near, Though the tempest rave and the wild winds blow, Not an angry wave shall our bark o’erflow.
169
4. It will surely hold in the floods of death, When the waters cold, chill our latest breath On the rising tide it can never fail, While our hopes abide within the veil!
5. When our eyes behold, through the gathering night The city of gold, our harbour bright, We shall anchor fast by the heavenly shore, With the storms all past for evermore Priscilla J. Owens RH 322
