O Jesus, I Have Promised
Author: John Ernest Bode Hymnal: Voices United #120 (1996) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Conflict and Struggle Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, I have promised
to serve you to the end;
remain for ever near me,
my Saviour and my friend:
I shall not fear the journey
if you are by my side,
not wander from the pathway
if you will be my guide.
2 O let me feel you near me:
the world is ever near;
I see the sights that dazzle,
the tempting sounds I hear;
my foes are ever near me,
around me and within;
but, Jesus, then draw nearer
and shield my soul from sin.
3 O let me hear you speaking
in accents clear and still,
above the storms of passion,
the murmurs of self-will;
O speak to reassure me,
to hasten or control;
now speak, and make me listen,
O guardian of my soul.
4 O Jesus, you have promised
to all who follow you,
that where you are in glory
your servant shall be too.
And, Jesus, I have promised
to serve you to the end:
O give me grace to follow,
my Saviour and my friend. Languages: English Tune Title: DAY OF REST

to see the approaching sacrifice.

bow thy meek head to mortal pain,
then take, O God, thy power, and reign. Languages: English Tune Title: THE KING'S MAJESTY

Go to dark Gethsemane
Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Voices United #133 (1996) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Topics: Conflict and Struggle Lyrics: 1 Go to dark Gethsemane,
you that feel the tempter's power;
your Redeemer's conflict see,
watch with him one bitter hour;
turn not from his griefs away:
learn from him to watch and pray.
2 See him at the judgment hall,
beaten, bound, reviled, arraigned;
see him meekly bearing all;
love to all his soul sustained.
Shun not suffering, shame, or loss;
learn from Christ to bear the cross.
3 Calvary's mournful mountain view;
there the Lord of glory see,
made a sacrifice for you,
dying on the accursed tree.
"It is finished," hear him cry:
trust in Christ and learn to die. Languages: English Tune Title: REDHEAD No. 76

We Meet You, O Christ

your image we see in simple and wise.
You live in a palace, exist in a shack.
We see you, the gardener, a tree on your back.
2 In millions alive, away and abroad,
involved in our life you live down the road.
Imprisoned in systems, you long to be free.
We see you, O Jesus, still bearing your tree.
3 We hear you, O Man [Christ], in agony cry.
For freedom you march, in riots you die.
Your face in the papers we read and we see.
The tree must be planted by human decree.
4 You choose to be made at one with the earth;
the dark of the grave prepares for your birth.
Your death is your rising, creative your word:
the tree springs to life and our hope is restored. Languages: English Tune Title: LIFE
We Meet You, O Christ

ready and wise to use the unexpected;
sharpen our insight.

give us the nerve to lose ourselves to others;
be with your church in death and resurrection,
God of all ages. Languages: English Tune Title: LOBET DEN HERREN

What a Friend We Have in Jesus
Author: Joseph Medlicott Scriven Hymnal: Voices United #664 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Conflict and Struggle Lyrics: 1 What a friend we have in Jesus,
all our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
everything to God in prayer!
O what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
all because we do not carry
everything to God in prayer.
2 Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged;
take it to the Lord in prayer.
Can we find a friend so faithful,
who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness;
take it to the Lord in prayer.
3 Are we weak and heavy laden,
cumbered with a load of care?
Christ the Saviour is our refuge;
take it to the Lord in prayer.
Do our friends despise, forsake us?
Are we tempted to despair?
Jesus' strength will shield our weakness,
and we'll find new courage there. Languages: English Tune Title: FRIENDSHIP

scorn your Christ, assail your ways;
fears and doubts too long have bound us;
free our hearts to work and praise.

for the living of these days.
3 Cure your children’s warring madness,
bend our pride to your control;
shame our wanton selfish gladness,
rich in goods and poor in soul.
Grant us wisdom, grant us courage,
lest we miss your kingdom's goal.

gird our lives that they may be
armoured with all Christ-like graces,
pledged to set all captives free.
Grant us wisdom, grant us courage,
that we fail not them nor thee. Languages: English Tune Title: RHUDDLAN
