1 Peter 2:10-11

• [1Pe 2:11] O Happy Band Of Pilgrims

  O happy band of pilgrims, If onward you will tread, With Jesus as your Fellow, To Jesus as your Head. O happy if you labor, As Jesus did for men; O happy if you hunger As Jesus hungered then. The cross that Jesus carried He carried as your due; The crown that Jesus weareth He weareth it for you. The faith by which you see Him, The hope in which you yearn, The love that through all troubles To Him alone will turn. What are they but forerunners To lead you to His sight? What are they save the effluence Of uncreated Light? The trials that beset you, The sorrows you endure, The manifold temptations That death alone can cure. What are they but His jewels Of right celestial worth? What are they but the ladder Set up to heaven on earth? O happy band of pilgrims, Look upward to the skies, Where such a light affliction Shall win you such a prize. To Father, Son, and Spirit, The God Whom we adore, Be loftiest praises given, Now and for evermore.

• [1Pe 2:21] Dear Jesus, In Whose Life I See

  Dear Jesus, in Whose life I see All that I would, but fail to be, Let Thy clear light forever shine, To shame and guide this life of mine. Though what I dream and what I do In my weak days are always two, Help me, oppressed by things undone, O Thou Whose deeds and dreams were one!

• [1Pe 2:21] Footprints Of Jesus

  Sweetly, Lord, have we heard Thee calling, Come, follow Me! And we see where Thy footprints falling Lead us to Thee. Refrain Footprints of Jesus, That make the pathway glow; We will follow the steps of Jesus Where’er they go. Though they lead o’er the cold, dark mountains, Seeking His sheep; Or along by Siloam’s fountains, Helping the weak. Refrain If they lead through the temple holy, Preaching the Word; Or in homes of the poor and lowly, Serving the Lord. Refrain Though, dear Lord, in Thy pathway keeping, We follow Thee; Through the gloom of that place of weeping, Gethsemane! Refrain If Thy way and its sorrows bearing, We go again, Up the slope of the hillside, bearing Our cross of pain. Refrain By and by, through the shining portals, Turning our feet, We shall walk, with the glad immortals, Heav’n’s golden street. Refrain Then at last when on high He sees us, Our journey done, We will rest where the steps of Jesus End at His throne. Refrain

• [1Pe 2:21] Jesus, I Live To Thee

  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 In my eternal home. 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 heaven forever mine.

• [1Pe 2:21] More Like Jesus Would I Be

  More like Jesus would I be, let my Savior dwell with me; Fill my soul with peace and love—make me gentle as a dove; More like Jesus, while I go, pilgrim in this world below; Poor in spirit would I be; let my Savior dwell in me. If He hears the raven’s cry, if His ever watchful eye Marks the sparrows when they fall, surely He will hear my call: He will teach me how to live, all my sinful thoughts forgive; Pure in heart I still would be—let my Savior dwell in me. More like Jesus when I pray, more like Jesus day by day, May I rest me by His side, where the tranquil waters glide. Born of Him through grace renewed, by His love my will subdued, Rich in faith I still would be—let my Savior dwell in me.

• [1Pe 2:21] O Mean May Seem This House Of Clay

  O mean may seem this house of clay, Yet ’twas the Lord’s abode; Our feet may mourn this thorny way, Yet here Emmanuel trod. This fleshly robe the Lord did wear, This watch the Lord did keep, These burdens sore the Lord did bear, These tears the Lord did weep. This world the Master overcame; This death the Lord did die; Oh, vanquished world! oh, glorious shame! Oh, hallowed agony! Oh, vale of tears, no longer sad, Wherein the Lord did dwell! Oh, holy robe of flesh that clad Our own Immanuel! Our very frailty brings us near Unto the Lord of heaven; To every grief, to every tear, Such glory strange is given. But not this fleshly robe alone Shall link us, Lord, to Thee; Not only in the tear and groan Shall the dear kindred be. We shall be reckoned for Thine own Because Thy heaven we share, Because we sing around Thy throne, And Thy bright raiment wear. Thou Who wast clothèd in our clay, And stricken in our stead, Wilt put on us Thy bright array, Thy joy on us wilt shed. O mighty grace, our life to live, To make our earth divine: O mighty grace, Thy heaven to give, And lift our life to Thine.

• [1Pe 2:21] O Thou Whose Feet Have Climbed Life’s Hill

  O Thou Whose feet have climbed life’s hill And trod the path of youth, Our Savior and our Brother still, Now lead us into truth. The call is Thine: be Thou the Way, And give us men, to guide; Let wisdom broaden with the day, Let human faith abide. Who learn of Thee the truth shall find, Who follow, gain the goal; With reverence crown the earnest mind, And speak within the soul. Awake the purpose high which strives, And, falling, stands again; Confirm the will of eager lives To quit themselves like men. Thy life the bond of fellowship, Thy love the law that rules, Thy Name, proclaimed by every lip, The Master of our schools.

• [1Pe 2:21] Stepping In The Light

  Trying to walk in the steps of the Savior, Trying to follow our Savior and King; Shaping our lives by His blessèd example, Happy, how happy, the songs that we bring. Refrain How beautiful to walk in the steps of the Savior, Stepping in the light, stepping in the light, How beautiful to walk in the steps of the Savior, Led in paths of light. Pressing more closely to Him Who is leading, When we are tempted to turn from the way; Trusting the arm that is strong to defend us, Happy, how happy, our praises each day. Refrain Walking in footsteps of gentle forbearance, Footsteps of faithfulness, mercy, and love, Looking to Him for the grace freely promised, Happy, how happy, our journey above. Refrain Trying to walk in the steps of the Savior, Upward, still upward, we follow our Guide; When we shall see Him, “the King in His beauty,” Happy, how happy, our place at His side. Refrain

• [1Pe 2:21] When Jesus Dwelt In Mortal Clay

  When Jesus dwelt in mortal clay, What were His works, from day to day, But miracles of power and grace, That spread salvation through our race? At his command, from rayless night Redeemed, the blind receive their sight, The deaf in rapture hear His voice, The dumb in songs of praise rejoice. Teach us, O Lord, to keep in view Thy pattern, and Thy steps pursue; Let alms bestowed, let kindness done, Be witnessed by each rolling sun. Teach us to mark, from day to day, In generous acts our radiant way, Tread the same path our Savior trod, The path to glory and to God.

• [1Pe 2:21] Ye Fair Green Hills Of Galilee

  Ye fair green hills of Galilee, That girdle quiet Nazareth, What glorious vision did ye see, When He Who conquered sin and death Your flowery slopes and summits trod, And grew in grace with man and God? We saw no glory crown His head As childhood ripened into youth; No angels on His errands sped; He wrought no sign; but meekness, truth, And duty marked each step He trod, And love to man, and love to God. Jesus! my Savior, Master, King, Who didst for me the burden bear; While saints in heaven Thy glory sing, Let me on earth Thy likeness wear; Mine be the path Thy feet have trod: Duty, and love, to man and God.

1 Peter 5:8

• [1Pe 5:8] I Walk In Danger All The Way

  I walk in danger all the way, The thought shall never leave me That Satan, who has marked his prey, Is plotting to deceive me. This foe with hidden snares May seize me unawares If e’er I fail to watch and pray. I walk in danger all the way. I pass through trials all the way, With sin and ills contending; In patience I must bear each day The cross of God’s own sending. Oft in adversity I know not where to flee; When storms of woe my soul dismay, I pass through trials all the way. Death doth pursue me all the way, Nowhere I rest securely; He comes by night, he comes by day, And takes his prey most surely. A failing breath, and I In death’s strong grasp may lie To face eternity for aye. Death doth pursue me all the way. I walk with angels all the way, They shield me and befriend me; All Satan’s power is held at bay When heav’nly hosts attend me; They are my sure defense, All fear and sorrow, hence! Unharmed by foes, do what they may, I walk with angels all the way. I walk with Jesus all the way, His guidance never fails me; Within His wounds I find a stay When Satan’s power assails me; And by His footsteps led, My path I safely tread. In spite of ills that threaten may I walk with Jesus all the way. My walk is heavenward all the way; Await, my soul, the morrow, When thou shalt find release for aye From all thy sin and sorrow. All worldly pomp, begone! To Heaven I now press on. For all the world I would not stay; My walk is heavenward all the way.

• [1Pe 5:8] My Soul Be On Thy Guard

  My soul, be on thy guard; Ten thousand foes arise; The hosts of sin are pressing hard To draw thee from the skies. O watch, and fight, and pray; The battle ne’er give o’er; Renew it boldly every day, And help divine implore. Ne’er think the victory won, Nor lay thine armor down; The work of faith will not be done, Till thou obtain the crown. Fight on, my soul, till death Shall bring thee to thy God; He’ll take thee, at thy parting breath, To His divine abode.
