Joshua 1:1--10:43

• [Jos 1:2] Now Let Our Mourning Hearts Revive

  Now let our mourning hearts revive, And all our tears be dry; Why should those eyes be drowned in grief Which view a Savior nigh? What though the arm of conquering death Does God’s own house invade? What though the prophet and the priest Be numbered with the dead? Though earthly shepherds dwell in dust, The agèd and the young, The watchful eye, in darkness closed, And mute th’instructive tongue. The Eternal Shepherd still survives, New comfort to impart; His eye still guides us, and His voice Still animates our heart. “Lo! I am with you,” saith the Lord, “My Church shall safe abide; For I will ne’er forsake My own, Whose souls in Me confide.” Through every scene of life and death, This promise is our trust; And this shall be our children’s song, When we are cold in dust.

• [Jos 1:9] God Of Grace And God Of Glory

  God of grace and God of glory, On Thy people pour Thy power. Crown Thine ancient church’s story, Bring her bud to glorious flower. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage, For the facing of this hour, For the facing of this hour. Lo! the hosts of evil ’round us, Scorn Thy Christ, assail His ways. From the fears that long have bound us, Free our hearts to faith and praise. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage, For the living of these days, For the living of these days. Cure Thy children’s warring madness, Bend our pride to Thy control. Shame our wanton selfish gladness, Rich in things and poor in soul. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage, Lest we miss Thy kingdom’s goal, Lest we miss Thy kingdom’s goal. Set our feet on lofty places, Gird our lives that they may be, Armored with all Christ-like graces, In the fight to set men free. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage, That we fail not man nor Thee, That we fail not man nor Thee. Save us from weak resignation, To the evils we deplore. Let the search for Thy salvation, Be our glory evermore. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage, Serving Thee Whom we adore, Serving Thee Whom we adore.

• [Jos 1:9] Look Up! Ye Weary Ones

  Look up! look up! ye weary ones, Whose skies are veiled in night; For He Who knows the path you tread Will yet restore the light; Look up! and hail the dawning Of hope’s triumphant morning. Refrain “Behold Him! behold Him! Your Savior lives today; Behold Him! behold Him! The clouds have rolled away.” The gifts you bring with loving hand Your Lord will not disown! Their odors sweet to Heav’n shall rise Like incense round His throne; Look up! and hail the dawning Of joy’s transcendent morning. Refrain Rejoice! the grave is overcome, And lo! the angels sing; The grandest triumph ever known Has come thro’ Christ our King; All Heav’n proclaims the dawning Of love’s all glorious morning.

• [Jos 3:17] Deep River

  Deep river, my home is over Jordan, Deep river, Lord, I want to cross over into campground. Oh, don’t you want to go to that gospel feast, That promised land where all is peace? Oh don’t you want to go to that promised land, That land where all is peace? Deep river, my home is over Jordan, Deep river, Lord, I want to cross over into campground.

• [Jos 6:20] Disposer Supreme, And Judge Of The Earth

  Disposer supreme, and Judge of the earth, Who choosest for Thine the weak and the poor; To frail earthen vessels and things of no worth Entrusting Thy riches which aye shall endure. Those vessels soon fail, though full of Thy light, And at Thy decree, are broken and gone; Thence brightly appeareth Thy truth in its might, As through the clouds riven the lightnings have shone. Like clouds they are borne to do Thy great will, And swift as the winds about the world go; The Word with His wisdom their spirits doth fill, They thunder, they lighten, the waters o’erflow. Their sound goeth forth, “Christ Jesus the Lord”; Then Satan doth fear, his citadels fall; As when the dread trumpets went forth at Thy Word, And one long blast shattered the Canaanite’s wall. O loud be their trump, and stirring their sound, To rouse us, O Lord, from slumber of sin; The lights Thou hast kindled in darkness around, O may they illumine our spirits within. All honor and praise, dominion and might, To God, Three in One, eternally be; Who round us hath shed His own marvelous light, And called us from darkness His glory to see.
