"Lead me on"
Author: Anon. Hymnal: Laudes Domini #340 (1890) Topics: Contentment; Contentment First Line: Traveling to the better land Lyrics: 1 Traveling to the better land,
O'er the desert's scorching sand,
Father! let me grasp thy hand;
Lead me on, lead me on!
2 When at Marah, parched with heat,
I the sparkling fountain greet,
Make the bitter water sweet;
Lead me on!
3 When the wilderness is drear,
Show me Elim's palm-grove near,
And her wells, as crystal clear:
Lead me on!
4 Through the water, through the fire,
Never let me fall or tire,
Every step brings Canaan nigher:
Lead me on!
5 Bid me stand on Nebo's height,
Gaze upon the land of light,
Then, transported with the sight,
Lead me on!
6 When I stand on Jordan's brink.
Never let me fear or shrink;
Hold me, Father, lest I sink:
Lead me on!
7 When the victory is won,
And eternal life begun,
Up to glory lead me on!
Lead me on, lead me on!

"Songs in the night"
Author: Anon. Hymnal: Laudes Domini #341 (1890) Topics: Contentment; Contentment First Line: My life flows on in endless song Lyrics: 1 My life flows on in endless song;
Above earth's lamentation,
I catch the sweet, though far-off, hymn
That hails a new creation;
Through all the tumult and the strife,
I hear the music ringing;
It finds an echo in my soul
How can I keep from singing?
2 What though my joys and comforts die?
The Lord my Saviour liveth;
What though the darkness gather round?
Songs in the night be giveth;
No storm can shake my inmost calm,
While to that refuge clinging;
Since Christ is Lord of heaven and earth,
How can I keep from singing?
3 I lift my eyes; the cloud grows thin;
I see the blue above it;
And day by day this pathway smooths,
Since first I learned to love it;
The peace of Christ makes fresh my heart,
A fountain ever springing;
All things are mine since I am his
How can I keep from singing? Languages: English Tune Title: MY LIFE FLOWS ON
"Songs in the night"
Matthew 6:25-34
Author: William Cowper Hymnal: Laudes Domini #346 (1890) Topics: Contentment; Contentment First Line: Sometimes a light surprises Lyrics: 1 Sometimes a light surprises
The Christian while he sings;
It is the Lord who rises
With healing in his wings:
When comforts are declining,
He grants the soul again
A season of clear shining,
To cheer it after rain.
2 In holy contemplation,
We sweetly then pursue
The theme of God's salvation,
And find it ever new:
Set free from present sorrow,
We cheerfully can say,
Let the unknown to-morrow
Bring with it what it may.
3 It can bring with it nothing,
But he will bring us through;
Who gives the lilies clothing,
Will clothe his people too:
Beneath the spreading heavens,
No creature but is fed;
And he who feeds the ravens,
Will give his children bread.
4 Though vine nor fig-tree neither,
Their wonted fruit should bear,
Though all the fields should wither,
Nor flocks, nor herds be there;
Yet God the same abiding,
His praise shall tune my voice,
For while in him confiding,
I cannot but rejoice. Languages: English Tune Title: CASKEY

Things working for Good
Author: Joseph Anstice Hymnal: Laudes Domini #449 (1890) Topics: Contentment; Contentment First Line: O Lord, how happy should we be Lyrics: 1 O Lord, how happy should we be,
If we could cast our care on thee,
If we from self could rest;
And feel at heart that One above,
In perfect wisdom, perfect love,
Is working for the best.
2 How far from this our daily life!
Ever disturbed by anxious strife,
By sudden, wild alarms;
Oh, could we but relinquish all
Our earthly props, and simply fall
On thine almighty arms.
3 Lord, make these faithless hearts of ours
Thy lessons learn from birds and flowers,
And from self-torment cease!
Father! we trust; and we lie still;
Leave all things to thy holy will,
And so find perfect peace. Languages: English Tune Title: PERRIN
