Mark 6:50

• [Mar 6:50] How Wonderful It Is To Walk With God

  How wonderful it is to walk with God Along the road that holy men have trod; How wonderful it is to hear Him say: Fear not, have faith, ’tis I who lead the way! How wonderful it is to talk with God When cares sweep o’er my spirit like a flood; How wonderful it is to hear His voice, For when He speaks the desert lands rejoice! How wonderful it is to praise my God, Who comforts and protects me with His rod; How wonderful to praise him every hour, My heart attuned to sing His wondrous power! How wonderful it is to fight for God, And point poor sinners to the precious blood; How wonderful it is to wield His sword ’Gainst sin, the enemy of Christ, my Lord! How wonderful ’twill be to live with God When I have crossed death’s deep and swelling flood; How wonderful to see Him face to face When I have fought the fight and won the race!

• [Mar 6:50] It Is I

  The storm in all its fury Swept dark Gennesaret; They cried in vain for succor, Till Hope’s lone star had set; Then Christ came on the waters In answer to their cry, And spake in tones of comfort, “Fear not, for it is I. Fear not, for it is I.” And life has days of darkness, When thick the storm-clouds lower. When waves dash fiercely round thee, And threaten to devour; But still thou need’st not falter, There’s One forever nigh, Who speaks above the tempest, “Fear not, for it is I. Fear not, for it is I.” He walks the waves beside thee, No storm can drive Him thence; He bids the waters bear thee, His arm is thy defense; His face shines on the billows, Let all thy terror fly; Fear not to trust in Jesus, He beckons, “It is I,” He beckons, “It is I.”

• [Mar 6:50] When The Dark Waves Round Us Roll

  When the dark waves round us roll, And we look in vain for aid, Speak, Lord, to the trembling soul, “It is I; be not afraid.” When we dimly trace Thy form In mysterious clouds arrayed, Be the echo of the storm, “It is I; be not afraid.” When our brightest hopes depart, When our fairest visions fade, Whisper to the fainting heart, “It is I; be not afraid.” When we weep beside the bier Where some well-loved form is laid, O may then the mourner hear, “It is I; be not afraid.” When with wearing hopeless pain Sinks the spirit, sore dismayed, Breathe Thou then the comfort-strain, “It is I; be not afraid.” When we feel the end is near, Passing into death’s dark shade, May the voice be strong and clear, “It is I; be not afraid.”

Mark 13:7

• [Mar 13:7] O Lord Of Hosts, Who Didst Upraise

  O Lord of hosts, who didst upraise Strong captains to defend the right, In darker years and sterner days, And armèdst Israel for the fight; Thou madest Joshua true and strong, And David framed the battle song. And we must we battle yet? Must we, Who bear the tender Name divine, Still barter life for victory, Still glory in the crimson sign? The Crucified between us stands, And lifts on high His wounded hands. Lord, we are weak and willful yet, The fault is in our clouded eyes; But Thou, through anguish and regret, Dost make Thy faithless children wise; Through wrong, through hate, Thou dost approve The far off victories of love. And so, from out the heart of strife, Diviner echoes peal and thrill, The scorned delights, the lavished life, The pain that serves a nation’s will: Thy comfort stills the mourner’s cries, And love is crowned by sacrifice. As rains that weep the clouds away, As winds that leave a calm in heaven, So let the slayer cease to slay; The passion healed, the wrath forgiven, Draw nearer, bid the tumult cease, Redeemer, Savior, Prince of Peace!

Mark 13:35

• [Mar 13:35] Christ Returneth

  It may be at morn, when the day is awaking, When sunlight through darkness and shadow is breaking That Jesus will come in the fullness of glory To receive from the world “His own.” Refrain O Lord Jesus, how long, how long Ere we shout the glad song, Christ returneth! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Amen. Hallelujah! Amen. It may be at midday, it may be at twilight, It may be, perchance, that the blackness of midnight Will burst into light in the blaze of His glory, When Jesus receives “His own.” Refrain While its hosts cry Hosanna, from heaven descending, With glorified saints and the angels attending, With grace on His brow, like a halo of glory, Will Jesus receive “His own.” Refrain Oh, joy! oh, delight! should we go without dying, No sickness, no sadness, no dread and no crying. Caught up through the clouds with our Lord into glory, When Jesus receives “His own.” Refrain

• [Mar 13:35] I Know Not The Hour

  I know not the hour when my Lord will come To take me away to His own dear home; But I know that His presence will lighten the gloom, And that will be glory for me. And that will be glory for me, Oh, that will be glory for me! But I know that His presence will lighten the gloom, And that will be glory for me. I know not the song that the angels sing, I know not the sound of the harps’ glad ring; But I know there’ll be mention of Jesus our King, And that will be music for me. And that will be music for me, Oh, that will be music for me! But I know there’ll be mention of Jesus our King, And that will be music for me. I know not the form of my mansion fair, I know not the name that I then shall bear; But I know that my Savior will welcome me there, And that will be Heaven for me. And that will be Heaven for me, Oh, that will be Heaven for me. But I know that my Savior will welcome me there, And that will be Heaven for me.

• [Mar 13:35] O Why Not Tonight?

  O do not let the Word depart, And close thine eyes against the light; Poor sinner, harden not your heart, Be saved, O tonight. Refrain O why not tonight? O why not tonight? Wilt thou be saved? Then why not tonight? Tomorrow’s sun may never rise To bless thy long deluded sight; This is the time, O then be wise, Be saved, O tonight. Refrain Our Lord in pity lingers still, And wilt thou thus His love requite? Renounce at once thy stubborn will, Be saved, O tonight. Refrain Our blessèd Lord refuses none Who would to Him their souls unite; Believe on Him, the work is done, Be saved, O tonight. Refrain Oh, do not let thy Lord depart, And close thine eyes against the light; Poor sinner, harden not thy heart; Thou wouldst be saved—why not tonight? Thou wouldst be saved—why not tonight? Tomorrow’s sun may never rise To bless thy long-deluded sight; This is the time!—oh, then, be wise! Thou wouldst be saved—why not tonight? Thou wouldst be saved—why not tonight? Our God in pity lingers still; Oh, wilt thou thus His love requite? Renounce at length thy stubborn will,— Thou wouldst be saved—why not tonight? Thou wouldst be saved—why not tonight? Our blessèd Lord refuses none Who would to Him their souls unite; Then be the work of grace begun: Thou wouldst be saved—why not tonight? Thou wouldst be saved—why not tonight?
