and O your servant, Lord,

Till our rest be won!
And, although the way be cheerless,
We will follow, calm and fearless;
Guide us by Thy hand
To our fatherland.
2 If the way be drear,
If the foe be near,
Let not doubt and fears o'ertake us,
Let not faith and hope forsake us;
For through many a foe
To our home we go.
3 When we seek relief
From a long-felt grief,
When temptations come alluring,
Make us patient and enduring;
Show us that bright shore
Where we weep no more.
4 Jesus, still lead on,
Till our rest be won;
Heavenly Leader, still direct us,
Still support, console, protect us,
Till we safely stand
In our fatherland.

Renew it boldly every day,
And help divine implore.

Nor lay thine armor down;

Till thou obtain the crown.

Shall bring thee to thy God;
He'll take thee, at thy parting breath,
To His divine abode.

thy clouds, which are fountains of goodness and love.

in all life. thou livest, the true life of all;

then wither and perish; but naught changeth thee.

Jesus, I my cross have taken
Author: Henry F. Lyte Appears in 1,304 hymnals Topics: Christians Steadfastness of Lyrics: 1 Jesus, I my cross have taken,
All to leave and follow Thee;
Naked, poor, despised, forsaken,
Thou, from hence, my all shalt be.
Perish every fond ambition,
All I've sought, or hoped, or known;
Yet how rich is my condition!
God and heaven are still my own.
2 Let the world despise and leave me,
They have left my Saviour too;
Human hearts and looks deceive me:
Thou art not, like them, untrue.
And while Thou shalt smile upon me,
God of wisdom, love, and might,
Foes may hate, and friends forsake me:
Show Thy face and all is bright.
3 Man may trouble an distress me,
'Twill but drive me to Thy breast;
Life with trials hard may pressume,
Heaven will bring me sweeter rest.
Oh, 'tis not in grief to harm me,
While thy love is left to me!
Oh,'twere not in joy to charm me,
Were that joy unmixed with Thee!
4 Take, my soul, thy full salvation;
Rise o'er sin and fear and care;
Joy to find, in every station,
Something still to do or bear.
Think what Spirit dwells within thee!
What a Father's smile is thine;
What a Saviour died to win thee;
Child of heaven, shouldst thou r epine?
Amen. Used With Tune: ARMSTRONG
Jesus, I my cross have taken
