Fairest Lord Jesus, Ruler of all nature,
O Thou of God and man the Son:
Thee will I cherish, Thee will I honor,
Thou my soul’s glory, joy, and crown.

Fair are the meadows,
Fairer still the woodlands,
Robed in the blooming garb of spring:
Jesus is fairer, Jesus is purer,
Who makes the woeful heart to sing.

Fair is the sunshine,
Fairer still the moonlight,
And all the twinkling starry host:
Jesus shines brighter, Jesus shines purer
Than all the angels heaven can boast.

Beautiful Savior!
Lord of the Nations!
Son of God and Son of Man!
Glory and honor, Praise, adoration,
Now and forever more be Thine!

Facing a task unfinished,
that drives us to our knees,
a need that, undiminished,
rebukes our slothful ease.
We who rejoice to know Thee,
renew before Thy throne
the solemn pledge we owe Thee,
to go and make Thee known.

Where other lords beside Thee
hold their unhindered sway,
where forces that defied Thee
defy Thee still today,
with none to heed their crying
for life, and love, and light,
unnumbered souls are dying,
and pass into the night.

We bear the torch that, flaming,
fell from the hands of those
who gave their lives, proclaiming
that Jesus died and rose.
Ours is the same commission,
the same glad message ours,
fired by the same ambition,
to Thee we yield our powers.

O Father who sustained them,
O Spirit who inspired,
Saviour, whose love constrained them
to toil with zeal untired.
From cowardice defend us,
from lethargy awake!
Forth on Thine errands send us
to labour for Thy sake

Face to face with Christ my Saviour,
face to face: what will it be
when with rapture I behold Him,
Jesus Christ who died for me

Face to face shall I behold Him,
far beyond the starry sky;
face to face in all His glory,
I shall see Him by and by!

Only faintly now I see Him,
with the darkling veil between,
but a blessed day is coming,
when His glory shall be seen.

What rejoicing in His presence,
when are banished grief and pain;
when the crooked ways are straightened
and the dark things shall be plain.

Face to face! O blissful moment!
Face to face, to see and know!
Face to face with my Redeemer,
Jesus Christ who loves me so

Praise Him, praise Him! Jesus, our blessèd redeemer;
Sing, O earth, His wonderful love proclaim!
Hail Him, hail Him! highest archangels in glory,
Strength and honour give to His holy name.

Like a shepherd, Jesus will guard His children,
In His arms He carries them all day long;
O ye saints that dwell in the mountains of Zion,
Praise Him! praise Him! ever in joyful song.

Praise Him, praise Him! Jesus, our blessèd Redeemer;
For our sins He suffered and bled and died.
He, our Rock, our hope of eternal salvation,
Hail Him, hail Him! Jesus the Crucified.

Loving Saviour, meekly enduring sorrow,
Crowned with thorns that cruelly pierced His brow;
Once for us rejected, despised, and forsaken,
Prince of glory, ever triumphant now.

Praise Him, praise Him! Jesus, our blessèd Redeemer;
Heavenly portals loud with hosannas ring!
Jesus, Saviour, reigneth for ever and ever,
Crown Him, crown Him! Prophet and Priest and King!

Death is vanquished, tell it with joy, ye faithful!
Where is now thy victory, boasting grave?
Jesus lives, no longer thy portals are cheerless;
Jesus lives, the mighty and strong to save.

Hail, Thou once despisèd Jesus,
Hail, Thou Galilean King!
Thou didst suffer to release us,
Thou didst free salvation bring.
Hail, Thou agonising Saviour,
Bearer of our sin and shame;
By Thy merits we find favour,
Life is given through Thy name.

Paschal Lamb, by God appointed,
All our sins on Thee were laid.
With almighty love anointed
Thou hast full atonement made.
All Thy people are forgiven
Through the virtue of Thy blood:
Opened is the gate of heaven,
Man is reconciled to God.

Jesus, hail! enthroned in glory,
There forever to abide;
All the heavenly hosts adore Thee,
Seated at Thy Father’s side:
There for sinners Thou art pleading,
There Thou dost our place prepare,
Ever for us interceding,
Till in glory we appear.

Worship, honour, power, and blessing
Thou art worthy to receive:
Loudest praises, without ceasing,
Right it is for us to give:
Come, O mighty Holy Spirit,
As our hearts and hands we raise,
Help us sing our Saviour’s merits,
Help us sing Immanuel’s praise

They tell me of a land so fair,
unseen by mortal eyes,
where spring in fadeless beauty blooms,
beneath unclouded skies.

“eye hath not seen, ear hath not heard,
neither hath it entered into the heart of man,
the things which god hath prepared for them,
prepared for them that love him.”

they tell me of a land so fair,
where all is light and song,
where angel choirs their anthems join
with yonder blood-washed throng.

no radiant beams from sun or moon
adorn that land so fair,
for he who sits upon the throne
shines forth resplendent there.

o land of light and love and joy,
where comes no night of care,
what will our song of triumph be
when we shall enter there!

Come all ye weary and ye broken
come to the table of the lord
come sing the song of the forgiven
come lay your burden on the word

come and find peace
everyone needs a little rest
everyone needs a little joy
and a song to sing in the darkest night

and life even when it gets you down
hope will turn it all around
but love is the greatest of these
everyone needs a little

sing all ye saints and ye sinners
call upon the mercy of the lord
come sing the song of redemption
sing about the hope that is to come

come and find peace
everyone needs a little rest
everyone needs a little joy
and a song to sing in the darkest night

and life even when it gets you down
hope will turn it all around
but love is the greatest of these
everyone needs a little

he will lift you up
he will lift you up higher than sorrow
he will lift you up
and cover your soul with healing

come and find peace
everyone needs a little rest
everyone needs a little joy
and a song to sing in the darkest night

and life even when it gets you down
hope will turn it all around
but love is the greatest of these
everyone needs a little

everyone needs a little rest
everyone needs a little joy
and a song to sing in the darkest night
and life even when it gets you down
hope will turn it all around
but love is the greatest of these
everyone needs a little
everyone needs a little
everyone needs a little

Every morning the red sun
rises warm and bright;
but the evening cometh on,
and the dark, cold night.
there’s a bright land far away,
where ’tis never-ending day.

every spring the sweet young flowers
open bright and gay,
till the chilly autumn hours
wither them away.
there’s a land we have not seen,
where the trees are always green.

little birds sing songs of praise
all the summer long,
but in colder, shorter days
they forget their song.
there’s a place where angels sing
ceaseless praises to their king.

christ our lord is ever near
those who follow him;
but we cannot see him here,
for our eyes are dim;
there is a most happy place,
where men always see his face.

who shall go to that bright land
all who do the right:
holy children there shall stand
in their robes of white;
for that heav’n, so bright and blest,
is our everlasting rest.

“Everlasting life!” is the promise giv’n unto them
who love the savior dear.
“everlasting life!” and a home in heav’n,
if you will believe his name.

then believe him! o receive him!
blessèd savior, kingly favor.
give him ever best endeavor,
for with him is everlasting life!

“everlasting life!” shout it far and wide,
blessèd tidings of salvation free.
“everlasting life!” thro’ his blood applied,
to the sinner in his woe.

“everlasting life!” there is naught to do but to take
the words he gives you now.
“everlasting life!” precious gift for you,
thro’ the savior crucified.

Evening and morning, sunset and dawning,
wealth, peace and gladness, comfort in sadness,
these are thy works; all the glory be thine!
times without number, awake or in slumber,
thine eye observes us, from danger preserves us,
causing thy mercy upon us to shine.

father, o hear me, pardon and spare me;
calm all my terrors, blot out my errors,
that by thine eyes they may no more be scanned.
order my goings, direct all my doings;
as it may please thee retain or release me;
all i commit to thy fatherly hand.
