on the restless sea of time,
Somber skies and howling tempests
oft succeed a bright sunshine,
In that land of perfect day,
when the mists have rolled away,
We will understand it better by and by.
Refrain:
By and by, when the morning comes
All the saints of God are gathered home,
We'll tell the story how we've overcome,
For we'll understand it better by and by.

of the things that life demands,
Want of food and want of shelter,
thirsty hills and barren lands,
We are trusting in the Lord,
and according to His word,
We will understand it better by and by. [Refrain]
3 Trials dark on every hand,
and we cannot understand,
All the ways that God would lead us
to that blessed Promised Land;
But He guides us with His eye
and we'll follow till we die,
For we'll understand it better by and by. [Refrain]
4 Temptations, hidden snares
often take us unawares,
And our hearts are made to bleed
for many a thoughtless word or deed,
And we wonder why the test
when we try to do our best,
But we'll understand it better by and by. [Refrain] Scripture: Psalm 118:8 Languages: English Tune Title: BY AND BY

O Thou, from whom all goodness flows

My sins lie heavily,
Thy pardon grant, new peace impart:
Then, Lord, remember me!

And ills I cannot flee,
Oh, let my strength be as my day--
Dear Lord, remember me!

I wait Thy just decree;
I wait the prayer of my last breath:
Now, Lord, remember me!
5 And when before Thy throne I stand,
And lift my soul to Thee,
Then with the saints at Thy right hand,
O Lord, remember me!

Our love and toil in the years to be,

An undefiled heritage.

With steadfastness and careful truth;

The truth whereby the nations live.

Controlled and cleanly night and day;
That we may bring, if need arise,
No maimed or worthless sacrifice.

On Thee for Judge, and not our friends;
That we, with Thee, may walk uncowed
By fear or favour of the crowd.

By deed or thought, to hurt the weak;
That, under Thee, we may possess
Man's strength to comfort man's distress.

And mirth that has no bitter springs;
Forgiveness free of evil done,
And love to all men 'neath the sun.
[Land of our birth, our faith, our pride,
For whose dear sake our fathers died;
O Motherland, we pledge to thee
Head, heart, and hand through the years to be.]

strength I find to meet my trials here;
trusting in my Father’s wise bestowment,
I’ve no cause for worry or for fear.

gives unto each day what he deems best–
lovingly, its part of pain and pleasure,
mingling toil with peace and rest.

with a special mercy for each hour;
all my cares he gladly bears and cheers me,
he whose name is Counselor and Power.

is a charge that on himself he laid:
“As your days, your strength shall be in measure”–
this the pledge to me he made.

so to trust your promises, O Lord,
that I lose not faith’s sweet consolation
offered me within your holy Word.

e'er to take, as from a father’s hand,
one by one, the days, the moments fleeting,
till I reach the promised land. Scripture: 2 Corinthians 4:16 Languages: English Tune Title: BLOTT EN DAG

Jesus Is All the World to Me
Author: Will L. Thompson Hymnal: The Worshiping Church #491 (1990) Meter: Irregular Topics: Trials Lyrics: 1 Jesus is all the world to me,
my life, my joy, my all;
he is my strength from day to day,
without him I would fall.
When I am sad, to him I go,
no other one can cheer me so;
when I am sad he makes me glad,
he's my friend.
2 Jesus is all the world to me,
my friend in trials sore;
I go to him for blessings, and
he gives them o'er and o'er.
He sends the sunshine and the rain,
he sends the harvest's golden grain,
sunshine and rain, harvest of grain,
he's my friend.
3 Jesus is all the world to me,
and true to him I'll be;
O, how could I this friend deny,
when he's so true to me?
Following him I know I'm right,
he watches o'er me day and night;
following him by day and night,
he's my friend.
4 Jesus is all the world to me,
I want no better friend;
I trust him now, I'll trust him when
life's fleeting days shall end.
Beautiful life with such a friend,
beautiful life that has no end;
eternal life, eternal joy,
he's my friend.

I have fled to my Refuge and breathed out my woe;
