Hymns 2024

by Sam Robson

/
1.
Why should I feel discouraged, Why should the shadows come Why should my heart be lonely And long for heav’n and home When Jesus is my portion My constant Friend is he His eye is on the sparrow And I know he watches me His eye is on the sparrow And I know he watches me I sing because I’m happy I sing because I’m free For his eye is on the sparrow And I know he watches me
2.
While shepherds kept their watching O’er silent flocks by night Behold, throughout the heavens There shone a holy light Chorus: Go tell it on the mountain Over the hills, and everywhere Go, tell it on the mountain That Jesus Christ is born The shepherds feared and trembled When lo, above the earth Rang out the angel chorus That hailed our Saviour’s birth Chorus: Down in a lowly manger The humble Christ was born And God sent us salvation That blessed Christmas morn Chorus:
3.
When I saw the cleansing fountain Open wide for all my sin I obeyed the Spi­rit’s wooing When He said, Wilt thou be clean Though the way seems straight and narrow All I claimed was swept away My ambitions, plans and wishes At my feet in ashes lay I will praise Him! I will praise Him Praise the Lamb for sinners slain Give Him glo­ry, all ye people For His blood can wash away each stain Then God’s fire upon the altar Of my heart was set aflame I shall ne­ver cease to praise Him Glory, glo­ry to His name Chorus X2
4.
Praise, my soul, the King of heaven To his feet your tribute bring Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven Who like me His praise should sing Alleluia, alleluia Praise the everlasting King Praise him for his grace and favor To his people in distress Praise him, still the same for ever Slow to chide, and swift to bless Alleluia, alleluia Glorious in his faithfulness Repeat verse 1
5.
What a friend we have in Jesus All our sins and griefs to bear What a privilege to carry Everything to God in prayer O what peace we often forfeit O what needless pain we bear All because we do not carry Everything to God in prayer Have we trials and temptations Is there trouble anywhere We should never be discouraged Take it to the Lord in prayer Can we find a friend so faithful Who will all our sorrows share Jesus knows our every weakness Take it to the Lord in prayer Are we weak and heavy laden Cumbered with a load of care Precious Savior, still our refuge Take it to the Lord in prayer Do your friends despise, forsake you Take it to the Lord in prayer In his arms he'll take and shield you You will find a solace there
6.
All people that on earth do dwell sing to the LORD with cheerful voice Him serve with mirth, His praise forth-tell come ye before Him and rejoice O enter then His gates with praise approach with joy His courts unto praise, laud, and bless His name always for it is seemly so to do Because the LORD our God is good His mercy is forever sure His truth at all times firmly stood and shall from age to age endure
7.
There are loved ones in the glory Whose dear forms you often miss. When you close your earthly story, Will you join them in their bliss Will the circle be unbroken By and by, by and by? Is a better home awaiting In the sky, in the sky? You can picture happy gath'rings Round the fireside long ago, And you think of tearful partings When they left you here below. One by one their seats were emptied. One by one they went away. (They passed away) Now the family is parted. Will it be complete? One day...
