AMAZING GRACE
1. Amazing grace how sweet the
sound That saved a wretch like me! I
once was lost but now am found,
Was blind but now I see.
2. 'Twas grace that taught my heart
to fear, And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed!
3. Thru many dangers, toils and
snares I have already come; 'Tis
grace hath brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.
4. When we've been there ten
thousand years, Bright shining as the
sun, We've no less days to sing God's
praise Than when we'd first begun.
ABIDE WITH ME
1. Abide with me- fast falls and even
tide, The darkness deepens- Lord, with
me abide; When other helpers fail and
comforts flee, Help of the helpless, O
abide with me!
2. Swift to its close ebbs out life’s little
day, Earth’s joy grows dim, its glories
passed away; Change and decay in all
around I see- O Thou who changest
not, abide with me!
3. I need Thy presence ev’ry passing
hour- What but Thy grace can foil the
tempter’s pow’r? Who like Thyself my
guide and stay can be? Thru cloud and
sunshine, O abide with me!
4. Hold Thou Thy word before my
closing eyes, Shine thru the gloom and
point me to the skies; Heav’n’s
morning breaks and earth’s vain
shadow flee- In life, in death, O Lord,
abide with me!
AT THE CROSS
1. Alas! and did my Savior bleed? And
did my Sov’reign die? Would He
devote that sacred head For such a
worm as I?
Chorus: At the cross, at the cross
where I first saw the light, And the
burden of my heart rolled away- It
was there by faith, I received my sight,
And now I am happy all the day!
2. Was it for crimes that I have done
He groaned upon the tree? Amazing
pity! grace unknown! And love beyond
degree!
3. Well might the sun in darkness hide
And shut his glories in, When Christ,
the mighty Maker, died For man the
creature’s sin.
4. But drops of grief can ne’er repay
The debt of love I owe: Here, Lord, I
give my self away- ‘Tis all that I can do!
HE LIVES
1. I serve a risen Savior, He’s in the
world today; I know that He is living,
whatever men may say; I see His hand
of mercy, I hear His voice of cheer,
And just the time I need Him He’s
always near.
Chorus: He lives, He lives, Christ Jesus
lives today, He walks with me and
talks with me along life’s narrow way.
He lives, He lives, salvation to impart!
You ask me how I know He lives? He
lives within my heart.
2. In all the world around me I see His
loving care, And tho my heart grows
weary I never will despair; I know that
He is leading thru all the stormy blast,
The day of His appearing will come at
last.
3. Rejoice, rejoice, O Christian, lift up
your voice and sing Eternal hallelujahs
to Jesus Christ the King! The hope of
all who seek Him, the help of all who
find, None other is so loving, so good
and kind.
WONDERFUL GRACE OF
JESUS
1. Wonderful grace of Jesus, Greater
than all my sin; How shall my tongue
describe it, Where shall its praise
begin? Taking away my burden,
Setting my spirit free, For the
wonderful grace of Jesus reaches me.
Chorus: Wonderful the matchless
grace of Jesus, Deeper than the
mighty rolling sea; Wonderful grace,
all sufficient for me, for even me;
Broader than the scope of my
transgressions, Greater far than all
my sin and shame; O magnify the
precious name of Jesus, Praise His
name!
2. Wonderful grace of Jesus, reaching
to all the lost, By it I have been
pardoned, Saved to the uttermost;
Chains have been torn asunder, Giving
me liberty, For the wonderful grace of
Jesus reaches me.
3. Wonderful grace of Jesus, Reaching
to most defiled, By its transforming
power Making him God’s dear child,
Purchasing peace and heaven For all
eternity- and the wonderful grace of
Jesus reaches me.
GRACE GREATER THAN OUR
SIN
1. Marvelous grace of our loving Lord,
Grace that exceeds our sin and our
guilt! Yonder on Calvary’s mount
out-poured- There where the blood of
the Lamb was split.
Chorus: Grace, grace, God’s grace,
Grace that will pardon and cleanse
within; Grace, grace, God’s Grace,
Grace that is greater than all our sin!
2. Sin and despair, like the sea-waves
cold, Threaten the soul with infinite
loss; Grace that is greater- yes, grace
untold- Points to the Refuge, the
mighty Cross.
3. Dark is the stain that we cannot
hide, What can avail to wash it away?
Look! there is flowing a crimson tide-
Whiter than snow you may be today.
4. Marvelous, infinite, matchless grace,
Freely bestowed on all who believe!
You that are longing to see His face,
Will you this moment His grace
receive?
BLESSED ASSURANCE
1. Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine! O
what a for-taste of glory divine! Heir of
salvation, purchase of God, Born of His
Spirit, washed in His blood.
Chorus: This is my story, this is my
song, Praising my Savior all the day
long; This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Savior all the day long.
2. Perfect submission, perfect
delight,Visions of rapture now burst
on my sight; Angels descending bring
from above Echoes of mercy, whispers
of love.
3. Perfect submission- all is at rest, I in
my Savior am happy and blest;
Watching and waiting, looking
above,Filled with His goodness, lost in
His love.
HIGHER GROUND
1. I’m pressing on the upward way,
New heights I’m gaining everyday- Still
praying as I’m onward bound, “Lord,
plant my feet on higher ground.”
Chorus: Lord, lift me up and let me
stand By faith on heaven’s tableland;
A higher plane that I have found- Lord,
plant my feet on higher ground.
2. My heart has no desire to stay
Where doubts arise and fears dismay;
Tho some may dwell where these
abound, My pray’r, my aim, is higher
ground.
3. I want to live above the world, The
Satan’s darts at me are hurled; For
faith has caught the joyful sound, The
song of saints on higher ground.
4. I want to scale the utmost height
and catch a gleam of glory bright; But
still I’ll pray till heav’n I’ve found,
“ Lord, lead me on to higher ground.”
I AM THINE, O LORD
1. I am Thine, O Lord- I have heard Thy
voice, and it told Thy love to me; But I
long to rise in the arms of faith And be
closer drawn to Thee.
Chorus: Draw me nearer, nearer,
blessed Lord, To the cross where
Thou hast died; Draw me nearer,
nearer, nearer, blessed Lord, To Thy
precious, bleeding side.
2. Consecrate me now to Thy service,
Lord, By the pow’r of grace divine; Let
my soul look up with a steadfast hope
And my will be lost in Thine.
3. O the pure delight of a single hour
That before Thy throne I spend, When
I kneel in pray’r and with Thee, my
God, I commune as friend with friend.
4. There are depths of love that I
cannot know Till I cross the narrow sea;
There are heights of joy that I may not
reach Till I rest in peace with Thee.
MAKE ME A CHANNEL OF
BLESSING
1. Is your life a channel of blessing? Is
the love of God flowing thru you? Are
you telling the lost of the Savior? Are
you ready His service to do?
Chorus: Make me a channel of
blessing today, Make me a channel of
blessing, I pray; My life possessing,
my service blessing, Make me a
channel of blessing today.
2. Is your life a channel of blessing?
Are you burdened for those that are
lost? Have you urged upon those who
are straying The Savior who died on
the cross?
3. Is your life a channel of blessing? If
our lives are not telling for Him? Have
you spoken the word of salvation To
those who are dying in sin?
4. We cannot be channels of blessings
If our lives are not free from known sin;
We will barriers be and a hindrance To
those who are trying to win.
TELL IT TO JESUS
1. Are you weary, are you heavy-
hearted? Tell it to Jesus, Tell it to Jesus;
Are you grieving overjoys departed?
Tell it to Jesus alone.

He is a friend that’s well-known;
You’ve no other such a friend or
brother, Tell it to Jesus alone.

unbidden? Tell it to Jesus, Tell it to
Jesus; Have you sins that to men’s
eyes are hidden? Tell it to Jesus alone.

sorrow? Tell it to Jesus, Tell it to Jesus;
Are you anxious what shall be
tomorrow? Tell it to Jesus alone.

dying? Tell it to Jesus, Tell it to Jesus;
For Christ’s coming kingdom are you
sighing? Tell it to Jesus alone.
WHAT A FRIEND WE HAVE IN
JESUS
1. What a friend we have in Jesus, All
our sins and griefs to bear! What a
privilege to carry Ev’rything to God in
prayer! O what peace we often forfeit
O what needless pain we bear, All
because we do not carry Ev’rything to
God in prayer!
2. Have we trials and temptations? Is
there trouble anywhere? We should
never be discourage- Take it to the
Lord in prayer. Can we find a friend so
faithful Who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our ev’ry weakness- Take
it to the Lord in prayer.
3. Are we weak and heavy laden,
Cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Savior, still our refuge- Take it
to the Lord in prayer. Do thy friends
despite, forsake thee? Take it to the
Lord in prayer; In His arms He’ll take
and shield thee- Thou wilt find a solace
there.

so glad and free; Jesus, greatest,
highest, I will come to Thee.

We’ll walk the heav’nly way.
