28 October 2019 I AM THE BREAD, THE BREAD OF LIFE Words: Brian Hoare I am the Bread, the Bread of Life; who comes to me will never hunger. I am the Bread, the Bread of heaven; who feeds on me will never die. And as you eat, remember me, my body broken on the tree: my life was given to set you free, and I'm alive for evermore. I am the Vine, the living Vine; apart from me you can do nothing. I am the Vine, the real Vine: abide in me and I in you. And as you drink, remember me, my blood was shed upon the tree: my life was given to set you free, and I'm alive for evermore. So eat this bread and drink this wine, and as you do, receive this life of mine. All that I am, I give to you, that you may live for evermore.

29 October 2019 HE WHO WOULD VALIANT BE Words: John Bun?yan Music: Charles W. Doug?las He who would valiant be ’gainst all disaster, Let him in constancy follow the Master. There’s no discouragement shall make him once relent His first avowed intent to be a pilgrim. Who so beset him round with dismal stories Do but themselves confound—his strength the more is. No foes shall stay his might; though he with giants fight, He will make good his right to be a pilgrim. Since, Lord, Thou dost defend us with Thy Spirit, We know we at the end, shall life inherit. Then fancies flee away! I’ll fear not what men say, I’ll labor night and day to be a pilgrim. (Source: http://www.hymntime.com/tch/htm/h/e/w/hewhowvb.htm)

Daily Hymns 30 October 2019 CHRIST FOR THE WORLD WE SING Words: Samuel Wolcott Music: Felice de Giardini Christ for the world we sing, The world to Christ we bring, With loving zeal, The poor and them that mourn, The faint and overborne, Sin sick and sorrow worn, Whom Christ doth heal. Christ for the world we sing, The world to Christ we bring, With fervent prayer; The wayward and the lost, By restless passions tossed, Redeemed at countless cost, From dark despair. Christ for the world we sing, The world to Christ we bring, With one accord; With us the work to share, With us reproach to dare, With us the cross to bear, For Christ our Lord. Christ for the world we sing, The world to Christ we bring, With joyful song; The newborn souls, whose days, Reclaimed from error’s ways, Inspired with hope and praise, To Christ belong.

31 October 2019 COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS Words: Johnson Oatman 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, And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done. Refrain: Count your blessings, name them one by one; Count your blessings, see what God hath done; Count your blessings, name them one by one; Count your many blessings, see what God hath done. Are you ever burdened with a load of care? Does the cross seem heavy you are called to bear? Count your many blessings, ev'ry doubt will fly, And you will be singing as the days go by. 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. So, amid the conflict, whether great or small, 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.

01 November 2019 CROWN AFTER CROSS Words: Frances R. Havergal Music: Barney E. Warren Light after darkness, gain after loss, Strength after weakness, crown after cross; Sweet after bitter, hope after fears, Home after wandering, praise after tears. Refrain: Now comes the weeping, then the glad reaping; Now comes the labor hard, then the reward. Sheaves after sowing, sun after rain, Sight after mystery, peace after pain; Joy after sorrow, calm after blast, Rest after weariness, sweet rest at last. Near after distant, gleam after gloom, Love after loneliness, life after tomb; After long agony rapture of bliss— Right was the pathway leading to this.

02 November 2019 LORD, TAKE THE FIRST PLACE Words and Music: Barney E. Warren I yield to Thee, Savior, forsaking my all, From sinful things now I will part; To Thee I surrender, for mercy I call, Come, take the first place in my heart. Refrain: Oh, take the first place in my heart, Oh, take the first place in my heart; I open the door, come in, I implore; Lord, take the first place in my heart. Oh, come, gentle Spirit, don’t leave me, I pray, From Thee I will never depart; I come to Thee now, for I cannot delay, Lord, take the first place in my heart. I cannot be lost, Lord, for Thee I will live, Forgiveness, O Savior, impart; If I will confess, Thou wilt freely forgive, And take the first place in my heart. The joybells of heaven will ring in my soul, My Savior, Redeemer, Thou art; To Thee I surrender, wilt Thou make me whole? Take now the first place in my heart.

03 November 2019 WE ALL CAN DO GOOD Words: Fan?ny Cros?by Music: John R. Swe?ney Our lives, we are told, are but fleeting at best, Like roses they fade and decay; Then let us do good while the present is ours, Be useful as long as we stay. Refrain: Do good unto others, do good while we can, Our moments how quickly they fly; Remember the proverb, remember it now, We all can do good if we try. A look or a smile, that in kindness we give, May comfort a desolate heart; May sweeten a life that is lonely and sad, And hope to the weary impart. How many around us are strangers to God, How many poor children we see; If such we could bring to the foot of the cross, How grateful and glad we should be. We all can do good, and we all can bestow Some gift for the sake of the Lord; If only a cup of cold water we give, Our souls will not lose their reward.

04 November 2019 HE LEADETH ME Words: Joseph H. Gilmore Music: William Bradbury He leadeth me: O blessed thought! O words with heavenly comfort fraught! Whate'er I do, where'er I be, still 'tis God's hand that leadeth me. Refrain: He leadeth me, he leadeth me; by his own hand he leadeth me: his faithful follower I would be, for by his hand he leadeth me. Sometimes mid scenes of deepest gloom, sometimes where Eden's flowers bloom, by waters calm, o'er troubled sea, still 'tis God's hand that leadeth me. Lord, I would clasp thy hand in mine, nor ever murmur nor repine; content, whatever lot I see, since 'tis my God that leadeth me. And when my task on earth is done, when, by thy grace, the victory's won, e'en death's cold wave I will not flee, since God through Jordan leadeth me.

05 November 2019 I’VE FOUND A FRIEND IN JESUS Words: Charles William Fry I have found a Friend in Jesus, He is everything to me; He is the fairest of ten thousand to my soul The Lily of the valley, In Him alone I see All I need to cleanse and make me fully whole. In sorrow He is my comfort, in trouble He is my stay; He tells me every care on Him to roll, He is the “lily of the valley”, the “Bright and Morning Star,” He is the fairest of ten thousand to my soul, In sorrow He is my comfort, in trouble He is my stay He tells me every care on Him to roll He is the “Lily of the valley,” the “Bright and Morning Star”; He is the fairest of ten thousand to my soul. He all my grief has taken, and all my sorrows borne; In temptation He’s my strong and mighty tower I have all for Him forsaken, I have all my idols torn From my heart, and now He keeps me by His power. Though all the world forsake me, and Satan tempt me sore, Through Jesus I shall safely reach the goal. He is the “Lily of the Valley”, the “Bright and Morning Star”; He is the fair of ten thousand to my soul. He will never leave me, nor yet forsake me here, While I live by faith, and do His blessed will; A wall of fire about me, I have nothing now to fear With His manna, He my hungry soul shall fill; Then sweeping upto glory, I will see His blessed face, Where rivers of delight shall ever roll He is the “Lily of the Valley”, the “Bright and Morning Star,” He is the fairest of ten thousand to my soul.

06 November 2019 TRUST AND OBEY Lyrics: John Henry Sammis Music: Daniel Brink Towner When we walk with the Lord In the light of His Word, What a glory He sheds on our way; While we do His good will, He abides with us still, And with all who will trust and obey. Refrain: Trust and obey, For there’s no other way To be happy in Jesus, But to trust and obey. Not a shadow can rise, Not a cloud in the skies, But His smile quickly drives it away; Not a doubt or a fear, Not a sigh or a tear, Can abide while we trust and obey. Not a burden we bear, Not a sorrow we share, But our toil He doth richly repay; Not a grief or a loss, Not a frown or a cross, But is blest if we trust and obey. But we never can prove The delights of His love, Until all on the altar we lay; For the favor He shows, And the joy He bestows, Are for them who will trust and obey. Then in fellowship sweet We will sit at His feet, Or we’ll walk by His side in the way; What He says we will do; Where He sends, we will go, Never fear, only trust and obey.

07 November 2019 ASK AND YOU SHALL RECEIVE Words: Barney E. Warren Music: J. H. Olinger See the great promises, brother, Are they so hard to believe? How can you doubt the dear Savior? Why don’t you ask and receive? Refrain: Ask, my brother and sister, For all you need believe; Ask the bountiful Giver; Ask and you shall receive. Jesus has suffered so meekly, Sorrowing hearts to relieve; Trust Him with all of your burdens, Comfort and strength receive. If there’s a want in your bosom, Father will fill it, believe; Do you need knowledge and wisdom? Ask and you shall receive. Open the kingdom of heaven, Jesus all bounty will give; Here is the pledge of His promise, Ask and you shall receive. (Source: https://library.timelesstruths.org/music/Ask_and_You_Shall_Receive/)

08 November 2019 BRETHREN, LET US WALK TOGETHER Brethren, let us walk together In the bonds of love and peace; Can it be a question whether Brethren should from conflict cease? ‘Tis in union, Hope and joy, and love increase. While we journey homeward, let us Help each other on the road; Foes on every side beset us, Snares through all the way are strewed; It becomes us Each to bear a brother’s load. When we think how much our Father Has passed by, and does forgive; Surely we should learn the rather Free from wrath and strive to live, Far removing All that might offend or grieve. Let us each esteem his brother, Better than himself to be; And each one prefer another, Full of love, from envy free; Happy are we, When in this we all agree.

09 November 2019 JESUS, I LIVE TO THEE Lyrics: Henry Harbaugh Music: Robert Jackson Jesus, I live to Thee, The Loveliest and Best; My life in Thee, Thy life in me, In Thy blest love I rest. Jesus, I die to Thee, Whenever death shall come; To die in Thee is life to me, With Thee I’m ever one! Whether to live or die, I know not which is best; To live in Thee is bliss to me, To die is endless rest. Living or dying, Lord, I ask but to be Thine; My life in Thee, Thy life in me, Makes Thee forever mine. (Source: https://www.hymnal.net/en/hymn/h/504)

10 November 2019 TO THE WORK Words: Fan?ny Cros?by Music: W. How?ard Doane To the work! to the work! we are servants of God, Let us follow the path that our Master has trod; With the might of His power our strength to renew, Let us do by His grace what He calls us to do. Refrain: Work for Him by His grace; Work thru Him for His praise; Work with Him all the days; And work in Him in many ways. To the work! to the work! let the hungry be fed; To the fountain of life let the thirsty be led; In the cross and its vict’ry our glory shall be, While we herald the tidings, “Salvation is free!” To the work! to the work! in the strength of the Lord, By the pow’r of His Name, with the light of His Word, All the slaves of the darkness of Satan set free And His riches of grace in His glory we’ll see.

11 November 2019 HIS TENDER MERCY Words: Par?a?phrased from Psalm 118 Music: Will?iam T. Wi?ley Give thanks and praise to God above, For everlasting is His love; Praise Him, ye saints, your Savior praise, Forever good in all His ways. Refrain: His tender mercy lasts for aye, His tender mercy lasts for aye; His tender mercy, tender mercy, Tender mercy lasts for aye. Let all His servants tell abroad The never failing grace of God; Let all who fear Jehovah’s name His everlasting love proclaim. In bondage of distress and grief To God I cried, and sought relief; In wondrous love He heard my plea And set my soul at liberty. (Source: http://www.hymntime.com/tch/htm/h/i/t/hitender.htm)

12 November 2019 MASTER, SPEAK! THY SERVANT HEARETH Lyrics: Frances Ridley Havergal Music: Lowell Mason Master, speak! Thy servant heareth, Waiting for Thy gracious word, Longing for Thy voice that cheereth Master, let it now be heard. I am list’ning, Lord, for Thee; What hast Thou to say to me? Often through my heart is pealing Many another voice than Thine, Many an unwilled echo stealing From the walls of this Thy shrine. Let Thy longed-for accents fall; Master, speak! and silence all. Master, speak! though least and lowest, Let me not unheard depart; Master, speak! for oh, Thou knowest All the yearning of my heart. Knowest all its truest need; Speak! and make me blest indeed. Master, speak! and make me ready, When Thy voice is truly heard, With obedience glad and steady, Still to follow every word I am listening, Lord, for Thee: Master, speak, oh, speak to me! Speak to me by name, O Master, Let me know it is to me; Speak, that I may follow faster, With a step more firm and free, Where the Shepherd leads the flock In the shadow of the Rock!

13 November 2019 O GOD, THY RIGHTEOUSNESS WE OWN Words: Charles Wesley O God, Thy righteousness we own; Judgment is at Thy house begun! With humble awe Thy rod we hear, And guilty in Thy sight appear; We cannot in Thy judgment stand, But sink beneath Thy mighty hand. Our mouth as in the dust we lay, And still for mercy, mercy pray; Unworthy to behold Thy face, Unfaithful stewards of Thy grace, Our sin and wickedness we own, And deeply for acceptance groan. We have not, Lord, Thy gifts improved, But basely from Thy statutes roved, And done Thy loving Spirit spite, And sinned against the clearest light, Brought back Thy agonizing pain, And nailed Thee to Thy cross again. Yet do not drive us from Thy face, A stiff-necked and hard-hearted race; But oh! in tender mercy break The iron sinew in our neck; The softening power of love impart, And melt the marble of our heart.

14 November 2019 AFFLICTIONS DO NOT COME ALONE Words: John New?ton Music: Is?aac Smith Afflictions do not come alone, A voice attends the rod; By both He to His saints is known, A Father and a God! Let not My children slight the stroke I for chastisement send; Nor faint beneath My kind rebuke, For still I am their Friend. The wicked I perhaps may leave Awhile, and not reprove; But all the children I receive I scourge, because I love. If therefore you were left without This needful discipline; You might, with cause, admit a doubt, If you, indeed, were Mine. Shall earthly parents then expect Their children to submit? And wilt not you, when I correct, Be humbled at My feet? To please themselves they oft chastise, And put their sons to pain; But you are precious in My eyes, And shall not smart in vain. I see your hearts, at present, filled With grief, and deep distress; But soon these bitter seeds shall yield The fruits of righteousness. Break through the clouds, dear Lord, and shine! Let us perceive Thee nigh! And to each mourning child of Thine These gracious words apply. (Source: https://www.ouvirmusica.com.br/hymn/1135720/)

16 November 2019 GRACE! 'TIS A CHARMING SOUND Grace! 'tis a charming sound, Harmonious to the ear; Heav'n with the echo shall resound, And all the earth shall hear. Refrain: Saved by grace alone! This is all my plea: Jesus died for all mankind, And Jesus died for me. 'Twas grace that wrote my name In Thy eternal book; 'Twas grace that gave me to the Lamb, Who all my sorrows took, Grace taught my wand'ring feet To tread the heav'nly road; And new supplies each hour I meet, While pressing on to God. Grace taught my soul to pray And made mine eyes o'erflow; 'Twas grace which kept me to this day, And will not let me go. Oh, let Thy grace inspire My soul with strength Divine! My all my powers to Thee aspire, And all my days be Thine. (Source: http://apostolicfaithweca.org/content/grace-tis-charming-sound)
