As I lay me down, Heaven hear me now. I’m lost without a cause After giving it my all. Winter storms have come And darkened my sun. After all that I’ve been through Who on earth can I turn to? I look to you. I look to you. After all my strength is gone, In you I can be strong I look to you. I look to you. And when melodies are gone, In you I hear a song. I look to you. About to lose my breathe, There’s no more fighting left, Sinking to rise no more, Searching for that open door. And every road that I’ve taken Lead to my regret. And I don’t know if I’m going to make it. Nothing to do but lift my head I look to you. I look to you. After all my strength is gone, In you I can be strong I look to you. I look to you. And when melodies are gone, In you I hear a song. I look to you. My levees are broken My walls have come Tumbling down on me The rain is falling. Defeat is calling. I need you to set me free. Take me far away from the battle. I need you. Shine on me. I look to you. I look to you. After all my strength is gone, In you I can be strong I look to you. I look to you. And when melodies are gone, In you I hear a song. I look to...
Hymns – Songs
Hark! the voice of Jesus calling, “Who will go and work today? Fields are white, the harvest waiting, Who will bear the sheaves away?” Loud and long the Master calleth, Rich reward He offers free; Who will answer, gladly saying, “Here am I, O Lord, send me”? 2. If you cannot cross the ocean And the heathen lands explore, You can find the heathen nearer, You can help them at your door; If you cannot speak like angels, If you cannot preach like Paul, You can tell the love of Jesus, You can say He died for all. 3. If you cannot be the watchman, Standing high on Zion’s wall, Pointing out the path to heaven, Offering life and peace to all; With your prayers and with your bounties You can do what Heaven demands, You can be like faithful Aaron, Holding up the prophet’s hands. 4. While the souls of men are dying, And the Master calls for you, Let none hear you idly saying, “There is nothing I can do!” Gladly take the task He gives you, Let His work your pleasure be; Answer quickly when He calleth, “Here am I, O Lord, send me.” SDA Hymnal...
I have a Friend so precious, So very dear to me, He loves me with such tender love, He loves so faithfully; I could not live apart form Him, I love to feel Him nigh, And so we dwell together, My Lord and I. 2 Sometimes I’m faint and weary, He knows that I am weak, And as He bids me lean on Him, His help I gladly seek; He leads me in the paths of light, Beneath a sunny sky, And so we walk together, My Lord and I. 3 I tell Him all my sorrows, I tell Him all my joys, I tell Him all that pleases me, I tell Him what annoys; He tells me what I ought to do, He tells me how to try, And so we talk together, My Lord and I. 4 He knows that I am longing Some weary soul to win, And so He bids me go and speak The loving word for Him; He bids me tell His wondrous love, And why He came to die, And so we work together, My Lord and I. SDA Hymnal...
Gracious Father, Guard Thy Children Gracious Father, guard Thy children From the foe’s destructive power; Save, O save them, Lord, from falling In this dark and trying hour. Thou wilt surely prove Thy people, All our graces must be tried; But Thy word illumes our pathway, And in God we still confide. 2 We are in the time of waiting; Soon we shall behold our Lord, Wafted far away from sorrow, To receive our rich reward. Keep us, Lord, till Thine appearing, Pure, unspotted from the world; Let Thy Holy Spirit cheer us Till Thy banner is unfurled. 3 With what joyful exultation Shall the saints Thy banner see, When the Lord for whom we’ve waited Shall proclaim the jubilee! Freedom from this world’s pollutions; Freedom from all sin and pain; Freedom from the wiles of Satan, And from death’s destructive reign. SDA Hymnal...
Father, Lead Me Day by Day Father, lead me day by day, Ever in Thine own sweet way; Teach me to be pure and true; Show me what I ought to do. When in danger, make me brave; Make me know that Thou canst save; Keep me safe by Thy dear side; Let me in Thy love abide When tempted to do wrong, Make me steadfast, wise, and strong; And when all alone I stand, Shield me with Thy mighty hand. May I do the good I know, Be Thy loving child below, Then at last go home to Thee, Evermore Thy child to be. SDA Hymnal # 482 ” Lead me, O Lord, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face.” [Psalm 5:8...
All things work for our good Though sometimes we don’t See how they could Struggles that break our hearts in two Sometimes blind us to the truth Our Father knows what’s best for us His ways are not our own So when your pathway grows dim And you just don’t see Him, Remember you’re never alone (Chorus:) God is too wise to be mistaken God is too good to be unkind So when you don’t understand When don’t see His plan When you can’t trace His hand Trust His Heart He sees the master plan He holds the future in His hand, So don’t live as those who have no hope, ALL our hope is found in Him. We see the present clearly He sees the first and last And like a tapestry He’s weaving you and me, To someday be just like Him (Chorus) He alone is faithful and true He alone knows what is best for you (Chorus) When you can’t trace His hand When you don’t see His plan When you don’t understand Trust His Heart.
