Angels, Please Tell Mother
Author: James Rowe Hymnal: Songs of Grace and Glory #154 (1918) Topics: Special Songs Male Voices; Special Songs Male Voices First Line: O how my loving mother used to worry over me Refrain First Line: How happy she will be to know that I am free Lyrics: 1 O how my loving mother used to worry over me,
Because I did not trust her Savior’s love!
She wanted me to meet her beside the crystal sea,
That we might live together there above.
Refrain:
How happy she will be to know that I am free,
And that the golden life-crown I shall wear;
Her Savior hides my past,
I’m trusting Him at last,
So, angels, please tell mother I’ll be there.
2 How oft I saw her weeping, how oft I heard her pray
For me, her boy, in boyhood’s happy home;
And yet I followed pleasure along the downward way,
And seemed to love from her and God to roam. [Refrain]
3 I know that she is resting with glory on her brow,
I know that she is safe with Him above,
And O how much I love her and her Redeemer now,
While resting in His tender arms of love. [Refrain]
4 I soon shall meet my mother in yonder happy home,
And thank her for the pleas she made for me;
Along the shore eternal together we will roam
And praise our King beside the crystal sea. [Refrain] Tune Title: [O how my loving mother used to worry over me]

The other leads downward; tho flow'ry it seem
Its joy is a phantom, its love is a dream
Its love is a dream, 'tis only a dream.
2 There are two guides for trav'lers, only two guides:
One's the Good Shepherd, e'en thro' the death tides;
The other, the serpent, beguiling with sin
Whose beauty external hides poison within,
Hides poison within, death poison within.
3 There are two homes for trav'lers, only two homes:
One's the fair city where evil ne'er comes;
The other, sin's wages, eternal and dread,
The fate of the lost ones, the doom of the dead.
The doom of the dead, the sorrowful dead.
4 Quickly enter the strait way, leading to life;
Shun the wide gateway of folly and strife.
The Spirit invites you this moment to come;
The Saviour is waiting to welcome you home;
To welcome you home, to welcome you home.

And beneath the thorn-wreath'd hair
Beam the patient eyes, so tender,

On the cross, on the cross;
Behold His bleeding hands and side,

On the cross, on the cross.

On the cross, on the cross;
The battle fought, the vict'ry won,
On the cross, on the cross;
"'Tis finished," now the Saviour cries;
To heav'n He turns His languid eyes;
Then bows His sacred head, and dies,
On the cross, on the cross.

Of the cross, of the cross;
In nothing else my soul shall glory,
Save the cross, save the cross;

That Jesus shed His blood for me,
On the cross, on the cross. Languages: English Tune Title: [Behold, behold the Lamb of God]

I shall tent on Love’s Highway. Languages: English Tune Title: [Hide me, Lord, in Thy pavilion]

When that which drew from out the boundless deep,
Turns again home,
Turns again home,
Turns again home,
Turns again home.

And after that the dark!
And may there be no sad farewell
When I, when I embark,
When I, when I embark.

The flood may bear me far;
I hope to see my Pilot face to face,
When I have crossed,
When I have crossed,
When I have crossed,
Crossed the bar. Tune Title: [Sunset and evening star]

Cease then your sad repining,
Soon will your sky be bright.

Sometime, Somewhere,
God will make all come right,

Skies will be always bright.

Somewhere, somewhere,
God, His full pardon bestowing,
Somewhere, somewhere;
Over the hilltops of glory,
Shine the fair streets of gold;
Wonderful, wonderful story,
Never has half been told. [Chorus]
3 Home is awaiting God's children,
Somewhere, somewhere,
Bright, golden crowns will be given,
Somewhere, somewhere;
Then the glad harps will be sounding
'Round the white throne on high;
Heaven with praises resounding,
Nevermore pain or sigh. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [Angels are always singing]

Men of Valor.
Author: Chas. H. Gabriel Hymnal: Victory Songs #206 (1920) Topics: Male Voices First Line: Men of valor, of all ages Refrain First Line: Bugles calling Lyrics: 1 Men of valor, of all ages,
Join the conflict as it rages;
Young and old the fight engages,
Lend now your aid!
Sounds of tumult now are nearing;
Mighty is the foe appearing;
Onward go, in spite of jeering,
Be not afraid!
Chorus:
Bugles calling,
Foes are falling!
Bravely now defend the right!
Souls are pleading,
Courage needing,
You must help to win the fight!
Christ obeying,
Nor delaying,
To the front in haste, away!
Be a soldier true;
There is need of you
In the ranks today.
2 Men of valor, sin assailing
With no fear of weakly failing,
'Tis the tho't of right prevailing
Strengthens the arm.
"God and home" the watchword ever;
Chains of evil you must sever;
Duty calls! be faithless never,--
God shields from harm! [Chorus]
3 Men of valor, rise in number!
In your tents no longer slumber,
Nor the valiant hosts encumber,
Rouse ye, be true!
See! the heart of sin is quaking!
Her defense is surely breaking!
To your duty then awaking,
God calls for you. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [Men of valor, of all ages]

That makes the eve so blest to me,
Has something far diviner now,
It bears me back to Galilee.
Chorus:
O Galilee, sweet Galilee,
Where Jesus loved so much to be,
O Galilee, blue Galilee,
Come, sing thy song again to me.
2 Each flow'ry glen and mossy dell,
Where happy birds in song agree,
Thro' sunny morn the praises tell,
Of sight and sounds in Galilee. [Chorus]
3 And when I read the thrilling lore,
Of him who walk'd upon the sea,
I long, oh, how I long once more,
To follow him in Galilee. [Chorus]

Bliss of the Pure
Author: F. Bottome Hymnal: Christ in Song #298 (1908) Topics: Special Selections Male Voices First Line: O bliss of the pure ones! Lyrics: 1 O bliss of the pure ones!
O bliss of the free!
I've plung'd in the fountain once open'd for me!
O'er sin and uncleanness exulting I stand,
And point to the nailprints in his holy hands,
And point to the nailprints in his holy hands.
2 O bliss of the sav'd ones!
Christ Jesus is mine!
No more condemnation; no longer I pine.
In conscious salvation I sing of his grace
Who lifted upon me the smiles of his face,
Who lifted upon me the smiles of his face.
3 O bliss of the glad ones!
O bliss of the pure!
No wound hath the spirit that he can not cure;
No head bow'd with sorrow but sweetly may rest,
No tears but may vanish on his loving breast,
No tears but may vanish on his loving breast.
4 O Crucified Jesus! of thee will I sing,
My blessed Redeemer, my God and my King;
My soul fill'd with rapture, shall shout o'er the grave;
In him will I triumph, the "Mighty to Save!"
In him will I triumph, the "Mighty to Save!" Languages: English Tune Title: [O bliss of the pure ones!]
