Side 231 - Who so beset him round With dismal stories, Do but themselves confound His strength the more is. No lion can him fright ; He'll with a giant fight But he will have a right To be a Pilgrim.
Side 148 - ROCK of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee ! Let the water and the blood, From Thy riven side which flowed, Be of sin the double cure, Cleanse me from its guilt and power.

Side 208 - Take my hands, and let them move At the impulse of Thy love. Take my feet, and let them be Swift and " beautiful" for Thee. Take my voice, and let me sing Always, only, for my King. Take my lips, and let them be Filled with messages from Thee. Take my silver and my gold, Not a mite would I withhold.
Side 117 - Saviour, if of Zion's city I, through grace, a member am, Let the world deride or pity, I will glory in thy name: Fading is the worldling's pleasure, All his boasted pomp and show; Solid joys and lasting treasure None but Zion's children know.
Side 194 - Mid toil and tribulation, And tumult of her war, She waits the consummation Of peace for evermore; Till with the vision glorious Her longing eyes are blest, And the great Church victorious Shall be the Church at rest.
