The Little While I Linger Here
Author: Franz Mikael Franzen; Rev. Peter Magnus Lindberg Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #457 (1926) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Topics: Way of Salvation Sanctification Lyrics: 1 The little while I linger here
Should grief and sorrow fret me?
No; Jesus is my Shepherd dear,
He never will forget me.
He gave His life His flock to save,
His Spirit and His Word He gave.
With these He's ever with us.
2 I hear Him speak, I know His voice,
I go where'er He beckons.
His own He knows, they are His choice,
Their numbers, too, He reckons.
And He will seek the straying sheep,
The feeble in His bosom keep,
And gently raise the fallen.
3 He strengthens me with living bread,
With waters sweet and gracious,
Which flow from life's great Fountain-head,
With peace and joy most precious.
Though rough and thorny is my way,
If from His path I do not stray,
I shall not be forsaken.
4 How vain the worldling's pomp and show,
How brief his joys and pleasures!
The night approaches now, and lo!
We leave all earthly treasures.
Then, what are all things here below
To Jesus' promise, "Where I go,
I will receive you also."
Amen. Scripture: John 10:1-6 Languages: English Tune Title: WO GOTT DER HERR NICHT BEI UNS HÄLT

What Tho' I Cannot Break My Chain
Author: Augustus Montague Toplady, 1740-1778 Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #458 (1990) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Way of Salvation Salvation by Grace Lyrics: 1 What tho' I cannot break my chain
or e'er throw off my load,
the things impossible to men
are possible to God.
2 Who, who shall in thy presence stand,
or match Omnipotence;
unfold the grasp of thy right hand
and pluck the sinner thence?
3 Faith to be healed I fain would have,
O might it now be giv'n;
thou canst, thou canst the sinner save,
and make me meet for heav'n.
4 Bound down with twice ten thousand ties,
yet let me hear thy call;
my soul in confidence shall rise,
shall rise and break through all.
5 Thou canst o'ercome this heart of mine,
thou wilt victorious prove;
for everlasting strength is thine,
and everlasting love.
Scripture: Mark 10:26-27 Languages: English Tune Title: ARLINGTON

So Let Our Lips and Lives Express
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #459 (1926) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Way of Salvation Sanctification Lyrics: 1 So let our lips and lives express
The holy gospel we profess;
So let our works and virtues shine,
To prove the doctrine all divine.
2 Thus shall we best proclaim abroad
The honors of our Saviour God;
When His salvation reigns within,
And grace subdues the pow'r of sin.
3 Our flesh and sense must be denied,
And passion, envy, lust, and pride;
While justice, temperance, truth, and love,
Our inward piety approve.
4 His promise bears our spirits up,
While we expect that blessèd hope,
The bright appearance of the Lord,
And faith stands leaning on His Word.
Amen. Scripture: James 2:17 Languages: English Tune Title: MIN LJUFVA TROST

Amazing Grace!
Author: John Newton Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #460 (1990) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Way of Salvation Salvation by Grace First Line: Amazing grace!– how sweet the sound Lyrics: 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 Thro' many dangers, toils and snares,
I have already come;
'tis grace has brought me safe thus far,
and grace will lead me home.
4 The Lord has promised good to me,
his Word my hope secures;
he will my shield and portion be,
as long as life endures.
5 And when this flesh and heart shall fail,
and mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess within the veil
a life of joy and peace.
6 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've first begun.
Scripture: 1 Chronicles 17:16 Languages: English Tune Title: AMAZING GRACE

Not What My Hands Have Done
Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #461 (1990) Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Topics: The Way of Salvation Salvation by Grace Lyrics: 1 Not what my hands have done
can save my guilty soul;
not what my toiling flesh has borne
can make my spirit whole.
Not what I feel or do
can give me peace with God;
not all my prayers and sighs and tears
can bear my awful load.
2 Thy work alone, O Christ,
can ease this weight of sin;
thy blood alone, O Lamb of God,
can give me peace within.
Thy love to me, O God,
not mine, O Lord to thee,
can rid me of this dark unrest,
and set my spirit free.
3 Thy grace alone, O God,
to me can pardon speak;
thy pow'r alone, O Son of God,
can this sore bondage break.
No other work, save thine,
no other blood will do;
no strength, save that which is divine,
can bear me safely through.
4 I bless the Christ of God;
I rest on love divine;
and with unfalt'ring lip and heart,
I call this Savior mine.
This cross dispels each doubt;
I bury in his tomb
each thought of unbelief and fear,
each ling'ring shade of gloom.
5 I praise the God of grace;
I trust his truth and might;
he calls me his, I call him mine,
my God, my joy, my light.
'Tis he who saveth me,
and freely pardon gives;
I love because he loveth me,
I live because he lives.
Scripture: Titus 3:5 Languages: English Tune Title: LEOMINSTER

A Debtor to Mercy Alone
Author: Augustus Montague Toplady, 1740-1778 Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #463 (1990) Topics: The Way of Salvation Salvation by Grace Lyrics: 1 A debtor to mercy alone,
of covenant mercy I sing;
nor fear, with thy righteousness on,
my person and off'ring to bring.
The terrors of law and of God
with me can have nothing to do;
my Savior's obedience and blood
hide all my transgressions from view.
2 The work which his goodness began,
the arm of his strength will complete;
his promise is yea and amen,
and never was forfeited yet.
Things future, nor things that are now,
nor all things below or above,
can make him his purpose forgo,
or sever my soul from his love.
3 My name from the palms of his hands
eternity will not erase;
impressed on his heart it remains,
in marks of indelible grace.
Yes, I to the end shall endure,
as sure as the earnest is giv'n;
more happy, but not more secure,
the glorified spirits in heav'n.
Scripture: Romans 8:38-39 Languages: English Tune Title: TREWEN

How Blest Are the Moments That Jesus Bestows
Author: John Telleen Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #463 (1926) Meter: 11.11.11.6.6.11 Topics: Way of Salvation Sanctification Lyrics: 1 How blest are the moments that Jesus bestows,
When wonders of grace to the spirit He shows!
His Word lights the way to the heavenly goal,
His Spirit is near us,
His Spirit is near us,
To teach us, and cheer us, and comfort our soul!
2 Lord Jesus, our Saviour, A Pentecost give
To quicken, and strengthen, and cause us to live;
Grant faith and give love, and in mercy bestow
Whatever is needed,
Whatever is needed,
To exercise faith in our hearts here below.
3 Our hearts are as cold and as hard as a stone;
Such are they by nature, and Thou art alone,
On earth and in heaven, the Saviour who can,
A new heart creating, A new heart creating,
A new heart creating, make each a new man.
4 From sorrows of earth Thou wilt now turn our mind,
For days that are coming, O help us to find
Our joy and our comfort in what Thou hast wrought;
For we are Thy people,
For we are Thy people,
With blood and with anguish so preciously bought.

I Was A Wandering Sheep
Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #464 (1990) Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Topics: The Way of Salvation Salvation by Grace Lyrics: 1 I was a wand'ring sheep,
I did not love the fold;
I did not love my Shepherd's voice,
I would not be controlled.
I was a wayward child,
I did not love my home;
I did not love my Father's voice,
I loved afar to roam.
2 The Shepherd sought his sheep,
the Father sought his child;
they followed me o'er vale and hill,
o'er deserts waste and wild:
they found me nigh to death,
famished and faint and lone;
they bound me with the bands of love,
they saved the wand'ring one.
3 Jesus my Shepherd is;
'twas he that loved my soul,
'twas he that washed me in his blood,
'twas he that made me whole;
'twas he that sought the lost,
that found the wand'ring sheep,
'twas he that brought me to the fold,
'tis he that still doth keep.
4 I was a wand'ring sheep,
I would not be controlled;
but now I love my Shepherd's voice,
I love, I love the fold.
I was a wayward child,
I once preferred to roam;
but now I love my Father's voice,
I love, I love his home.

grace that exceeds our sin and our guilt,
yonder on Calvary's mount out-poured,
there where the blood of the Lamb was spilt.
Refrain:
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.

threaten the soul with infinite loss;
grace that is greater, yes, grace untold,
points to the Refuge, the mighty cross. [Refrain]
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. [Refrain]

I Sought the Lord, and Afterward I Knew
Author: Anonymous Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #466 (1990) Meter: 10.10.10.6 with refrain Topics: The Way of Salvation Salvation by Grace Lyrics: 1 I sought the Lord, and afterward I knew
he moved my soul to seek him, seeking me;
it was not I that found, O Savior true,
no, I was found of thee.
2 Thou didst reach forth thy hand and mine enfold;
I walked and sank not on the storm-vexed sea -
'twas not so much that I on thee took hold,
as thou, dear Lord, on me.
3 I find, I walk, I love, but, O the whole
of love is but my answer, Lord, to thee;
for thou wert long beforehand with my soul,
always thou lovedst me.
