When we cannot see our way

Author: Thomas Kelly (1769-1855) Hymnal: The Song Book of the Salvation Army #772 (1986) Topics: The salvation soldier Faith and trust Lyrics: 1 When we cannot see our way, Let us trust and still obey; He who bids us forward go, Cannot fail the way to show. 2 Though the sea be deep and wide, Though a passage seem denied, Fearless let us still proceed, Since the Lord vouchsafes to lead. 3 Though it be the gloom of night, Though we see no ray of light, Since the Lord himself is there, ‘Tis not meet that we should fear. 4 Night with him is never night, Where he is, there all is light; When he calls us, why delay? They are happy who obey. 5 Be it ours, then, while we’re here, Him to follow without fear, Where he calls us, there to go, What he bids us, that to do. Languages: English

I think, when I read that sweet story of old

Author: Jemima Luke (1813-1906) Hymnal: The Song Book of the Salvation Army #794 (1986) Topics: The salvation soldier Dedication of children Lyrics: 1 I think, when I read that sweet story of old, When Jesus was here among men, How he called little children as lambs to his fold, I should like to have been with them then. I wish that his hands had been placed on my head, That his arm had been thrown around me, And that I might have seen his kind look when he said: Let the little ones come unto me! 2 Yet still to his footstool in prayer I may go, And ask for a share in his love; And if I now earnestly seek him below, I shall see him and hear him above, In that beautiful place he is gone to prepare For all who are washed and forgiven; And many dear children are gathering there, For of such is the Kingdom of Heaven. 3 But thousands and thousands who wander and fall Never heard of that heavenly home; I should like them to know there is room for them all, And that Jesus has bid them to come. I long for the joys of that glorious time, The sweetest and brightest and best, When the dear little children of every clime Shall crowd to his arms and be blessèd. Languages: English

For if their hearts to me they give, They shall with me in Glory live; Suffer little children to come unto me. 3 How kind was our Saviour To bid these children welcome! But there are many thousands who Have never heard his name; O shine upon them from above, And show thyself a God of love! Teach the little children to come unto thee. Languages: English
