02 Haven Of Rest
Words and music: Henry L. Gilmour (1837-1920) My soul in sad exile was out on life's sea So burdened with sin and distrest Till I heard a voice saying, "Make Me your choice," And I entered the haven of rest I've anchored my soul in the haven of rest I'll sail the wide seas no more The tempest may sweep o'er the wild stormy deep But in Jesus I'm safe evermore I yielded myself to His tender embrace And faith taking hold of His word My fetters fell off and I anchored my soul: The haven of rest is my Lord Oh, come to the Saviour, He patiently waits To save by His power divine Come, anchor your soul in the haven of rest And say, "My Beloved is mine." The tempest may sweep o'er the wild stormy deep But in Jesus I'm safe evermore But in Jesus I'm safe evermore But in Jesus I'm safe evermore I'm safe in Jesus, yes I am |
03 The Cross Leads Home
Words and music: Jessie Brown Pounds (1861-1921) I must go home by the way of the cross There is no other way but this I shall never get sight of the gates of light If the way of the cross I miss Daily I must follow and I must confess You provided only one way and the way of the cross is it The way of the cross leads home The way of the cross leads home It's sweet to know as I onward go The way of the cross leads home The way of the cross leads home The way of the cross leads home It's sweet to konw as I onward go The way of the cross leads home... the way of the cross I must go on in the blood sprinkled way The path that the Saviour trod And if I ever climb to the heights sublime Where the soul is at home with God I will bid farewell to the way of the world To walk in it never more For my Lord says, "Come" and I seek my home Where He waits at the door The way of the cross leads home The way of the cross leads home It's sweet to know as I onward go The way of the cross leads home The way of the cross leads home The way of the cross leads home (Praise God from whom all blessings flow Praise Him all creatures here below Praise Him above ye heavenly host) The way of the cross leads home (Praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost) The way of the cross leads home The way of the cross leads home, leads home |

05 The Lower Lights
Words and music: Phillip P. Bliss (1838-1876) Thank You, my Lord, God and King for sending Your daughter, Barbara, to pull this sailor out! Brightly beams our Father's mercy From His lighthouse evermore But to us He gives the keeping Of the lights along the shore Let the lower lights be burning Send a gleam across the wave Some poor, fainting, struggling seaman You may rescue, you may save Dark the night of sin has settled Loud the angry billows roar Eager eyes are watching, longing For the lights along the shore Trim your feeble lamp, my brother Some poor sailor tempest tossed Trying now to make the harbour In the darkness may be lost |
06 Let The Victors In
Word and music: Henry Alford (1810-1871) What a glorious day we live in, as all creation waits Through many wail and travail, it's for heaven's sake For it's the blood of Jesus that delivers us from sin And manifests the Son of God, His righteousness within Ten thousand time ten thousand In sparkling raiment bright The armies of the ransomed saints Throng up the steeps of light Tis finished, all is finished, their fight with death and sin Fling open wide the golden gates and let the victors in Let the victors in, let the victors in They've paid the price to walk it right So let the victors in Let the victors in, let the victors in They've paid the price to walk it right So let the victors in What a rush of hallelujahs fill the earth and sky What a ringing of a thousand harps bespeaks the triumph nigh O day, for which creation and all its tribes were made O joy, for all its former woes a thousandfold repaid |
07 My Saviour Leads Me
Words and music: Fanny J. Crossby (1820-1915) All the way my Saviour leads me What have I to ask beside? Can I doubt His tender mercy Who thro' life has been my Guide? Heavenly peace, divinest comfort Here by faith with Him to dwell For I know what e'er befalls me Jesus doeth all things well Jesus doeth all things well All the way my Saviour leads me Cheers each winding path I trod Gives me grace for every trial Feeds me with the living bread Tho' my weary steps may falter And my soul athirst may be Gushing from the rock before me Lo! A spring of joy I see Lo! A spring of joy I see All the way my Saviour leads me Oh the fulness of His love Perfect rest to me is promised In my Father's house above When my spirit, clothed immortal Wings its flight to realms of day This my song through endless ages Jesus led me all the way When my spirit, clothed immortal Wings its flight to realms of day This my song through endless ages Jesus led me all the way Jesus led me all the way Jesus led me all the way |

10 Send Me
Words and music: Daniel March (1816-1909) Hark, the voice of Jesus calling "Who will go and work today? Fields are white, harvests waiting Who will bear the sheaves away?" Loud and long the Master calleth Rich reward He offers free Who will answer, gladly saying "Here I am, o Lord, send me?" Send me, send me, here am I, o Lord, send me Send me, send me, here am I, o Lord, send me If you cannot cross the ocean And the heathen lands explore You can find the heathen nearer You can help them at your door Jesus gave His life for sinners Gave His life for you and me Will you give your life for others And reply "O Lord, send me?" Let none hear you idly saying "There is nothing I can do" While the souls of men are dying And the Master calls to you Take the task He gives you gladly Let His work your pleasure be Answer quickly when He calleth "Here am I, o Lord, send me!" |
