John 12:20-21

• [Joh 12:21] A Prayer For God’s Blessing

  Here we would see Jesus, wearied with the journey, We turn again to be renewed and know His touch of pow’r. Yes, we would see Jesus thru the Scriptures shining; Lord, lift the veil of earthly sense and meet us in this hour. We beheld His glory, thus when homeward wending, Our hearts will echo with the chorus of redeeming love. We beheld His glory, and go forth to serve Him, Till faith gives way to joyous sight in mansions up above.

• [Joh 12:21] We Would See Jesus (1)

  We would see Jesus; lo! His star is shining Above the stable while the angels sing; There in a manger on the hay reclining; Haste, let us lay our gifts before the King. We would see Jesus, Mary’s Son most holy, Light of the village life from day to day; Shining revealed through every task most lowly, The Christ of God, the life, the truth, the way. We would see Jesus, on the mountain teaching, With all the listening people gathered round; While birds and flowers and sky above are preaching The blessedness which simple trust has found. We would see Jesus, in His work of healing, At eventide before the sun was set; Divine and human, in His deep revealing Of God made flesh, in loving service met. We would see Jesus, in the early morning, Still as of old He calleth, “Follow Me!” Let us arise, all meaner service scorning; Lord, we are Thine, we give ourselves to Thee.

• [Joh 12:21] We Would See Jesus (warner)

  We would see Jesus; for the shadows lengthen Across this little landscape of our life; We would see Jesus, our weak faith to strengthen For the last weariness, the final strife. We would see Jesus, the great rock Foundation Whereon our feet were set with sovereign grace; Nor life nor death, with all their agitation, Can thence remove us, if we see His face. We would see Jesus; other lights are paling, Which for long years we have rejoiced to see; The blessings of our pilgrimage are failing; We would not mourn them, for we go to Thee. We would see Jesus; yet the spirit lingers Round the dear objects it has loved so long, And earth from earth can scarce unclasp its fingers; Our love to Thee makes not this love less strong. We would see Jesus: sense is all too binding, And heaven appears too dim, too far away; We would see Thee, Thyself our hearts reminding What Thou hast suffered, our great debt to pay. We would see Jesus: this is all we’re needing; Strength, joy, and willingness come with the sight; We would see Jesus, dying, risen, pleading; Then welcome day, and farewell mortal night.

John 12:32

• [Joh 12:32] Above The Trembling Elements

  Above the trembling elements, Above life’s restless sea, Dear Savior, lift my spirit up, O lift me up to Thee! Great calmness there, sweet patience, too, Upon Thy face I see; I would be calm and patient, Lord, O lift me up to Thee! I am not weary of Thy work, From earth I would not flee; But while I walk and while I serve, O lift me up to Thee! That I may bless my tender friends, And those who love not me; But while I walk and while I serve, O lift me up to Thee! Whatever falls of good or ill, Thy hand, Thy care I see, And while these varied dealings pass, O lift me up to Thee! And when my eyes close for the last, Still this my prayer shall be: Dear Savior, lift my spirit up, And lift me up to Thee!

• [Joh 12:32] Draw Thou My Soul, O Christ

  Draw Thou my soul, O Christ, closer to Thine; Breathe into every wish Thy will divine; Raised my low self above, won by Thy deathless love, Ever, O Christ, through mine let Thy life shine. Lead forth my soul, O Christ, one with Thine own, Joyful to follow Thee through paths unknown; In Thee my strength renew; give me Thy work to do; Through me Thy truth be shown, Thy love made known. Not for myself alone may my prayer be; Lift Thou Thy world, O Christ, closer to Thee; Cleanse it from guilt and wrong; teach it salvation’s song Till earth, as Heaven, fulfills God’s holy will.

• [Joh 12:32] Drawn To The Cross

  Drawn to the cross, which Thou has blest With healing gifts for souls distressed, To find in Thee my life, my rest, Christ Crucified, I come. Thou knowest all my griefs and fears, Thy grace abused, my misspent years; Yet now to Thee with contrite tears, Christ Crucified, I come. Wash me and take away each stain; Let nothing of my sin remain. For cleansing, tho’ it be thro’ pain, Christ Crucified, I come. And then for work to do for Thee, Which shall so sweet a service be That angels well might envy me, Christ Crucified, I come.

• [Joh 12:32] Lift Him Up (oatman)

  How to reach the masses, men of every birth, For an answer, Jesus gave the key: “And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, Will draw all men unto Me.” Refrain Lift Him up, Lift Him up, Still He speaks from eternity: “And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, Will draw all men unto Me.” Oh! the world is hungry for the Living Bread, Lift the Savior up for them to see; Trust Him, and do not doubt the words that He said, “I’ll draw all men unto Me.” Refrain Don’t exalt the preacher, don’t exalt the pew, Preach the Gospel simple, full and free; Prove Him and you will find that promise is true, “I’ll draw all men unto Me.” Refrain Lift Him up by living as a Christian ought, Let the world in you the Savior see; Then men will gladly follow Him Who once taught, “I’ll draw all men unto Me.” Refrain

• [Joh 12:32] Lift Him Up (warren)

  Lift Him up, ’tis He that bids you, Let the dying look and live, To all weary, thirsting sinners, Living waters will He give; And though once so meek and lowly, Yet the Prince of Heav’n was He; And the blind, who grope in darkness, Through the blood of Christ shall see. Refrain Lift Him up, the risen Savior, High amid the waiting throng; Lift Him up, ’tis He that speaketh, Now He bids you flee from wrong. Lift Him up, this precious Savior, Let the multitude behold; They with willing hearts shall seek Him, He will draw them to His fold; They shall gather from the wayside, Hastening on with joyous feet, And shall bear the cross of Jesus, And shall find salvation sweet. Refrain Lift Him up in all His glory, ’Tis the Son of God on high; Lift Him up, His love shall draw them, E’en the careless shall draw nigh; Let them hear again the story Of the cross, the death of shame; And from tongue to tongue repeat it; Mighty throngs shall bless His Name. Refrain O then lift Him up in singing, Lift the Savior up in prayer; He, the glorious Redeemer, All the sins of men did bear; Yes, the young shall bow before Him, And the old their voices raise; All the deaf shall hear hosannah; And the dumb shall shout His praise. Refrain

• [Joh 12:32] O My Savior, Lifted

  O my Savior, lifted From the earth for me, Draw me, in Thy mercy, Nearer unto Thee. Lift my earthbound longings, Fix them, Lord, above; Draw me with the magnet Of Thy mighty love. Lord, Thine arms are stretching Ever far and wide, To enfold Thy children To Thy loving side. And I come, O Jesus; Dare I turn away? No! Thy love hath conquered, And I come today. Bringing all my burdens, Sorrow, sin, and care, At Thy feet I lay them And I leave them there.
