154 I Will Make the Darkness Light
I Will Make the Darkness Light
From Blue book - Melodies of Praise
page 154
I will make the darkness light before thee, What is wrong I'll make it right before thee, All Thy battles I will fight before thee, And the high place I'll bring down.
When thou walkest by the way I'll lead thee, On the fatness of the land I'll feed thee, And a mansion in the sky I'll deed thee, And the high place I'll bring down.
With an everlasting love I'll love thee, Tho' with trials deep and sore I'll prove thee, But there's nothing that can hurt or move thee, And the high place I'll bring down.
When thou walkest by the way I'll lead thee, On the fatness of the land I'll feed thee, And a mansion in the sky I'll deed thee, And the high place I'll bring down.
Altho' Satan in His rage would tear thee, And with all his winning arts would snare thee, Even down to thine old age I'll bear thee, And the high place I'll bring down.
When thou walkest by the way I'll lead thee, On the fatness of the land I'll feed thee, And a mansion in the sky I'll deed thee, And the high place I'll bring down.
I will make the darkness light before thee, I will make the crooked straight before thee, I will spread my wings protecting o'er thee, And the high place I'll bring down.
When thou walkest by the way I'll lead thee, On the fatness of the land I'll feed thee, And a mansion in the sky I'll deed thee, And the high place I'll bring down.

From Blue book - Melodies of Praise
page 152
In my Father's house are many mansions, If it were not true, He would have told me so; He has gone away to live 'in that bright city, He's preparing me a mansion there I know.
Do not shun the Savior's love, from up in glory, Or you won't be there to sing the gospel story; In my Father's house are many mansions; If you're true then to this land you'll surely go.
Jesus died upon the cross to bear my sorrow, Freely died that souls like you might have new life; But I know there soon will come a bright tomorrow, When the world will all be free from sin and strife.
Do not shun the Savior's love, from up in glory, Or you won't be there to sing the gospel story; In my Father's house are many mansions; If you're true then to this land you'll surely go.
When your friends have turn'd you down and left you lonely, In this world you're all alone and O so blue; Turn your tho'ts away from sin to Jesus only, A new life and friendship sweet He'll give to you.
Do not shun the Savior's love, from up in glory, Or you won't be there to sing the gospel story; In my Father's house are many mansions; If you're true then to this land you'll surely go.

Harvest Is Passing
From Blue book - Melodies of Praise
page 147
Millions are living in night's dense darkness No light to cheer them, no hope nor gladness, Bowed down and burdened, with none to save, And death awaits them beyond the grave
Harvest is passing, Night draweth nigh, Millions are dying, Oh, hear their cry! Then haste, my brother, their souls to save Christ to redeem them His lifeblood gave.
Earnest entreaties to gods that hear not, To idols bowing' long years have they sought, But no one answers their anguished plea, Doomed they pass onward to eternity
Harvest is passing, Night draweth nigh, Millions are dying, Oh, hear their cry! Then haste, my brother, their souls to save Christ to redeem them His lifeblood gave.
To save, to rescue the lost, the dying, Your all to Christ give, nothing denying, His voice is calling, Quickly obey, And do His bidding while it is day.
Harvest is passing, Night draweth nigh, Millions are dying, Oh, hear their cry! Then haste, my brother, their souls to save Christ to redeem them His lifeblood gave.

When the mists have rolled in splendor From the beauty of the hills, And the sunlight falls in gladness On the river and the rills, We recall our Father's promise In the rainbow of the spray: We shall know each other better When the mists have rolled away.
We shall know as we are known Nevermore to walk alone In the dawning of the morning Of that bright and happy day. We shall know each other better, When the mists have rolled away.
Oft we tread the path before us With a weary, burdened heart; Oft we toil amid the shadows, And our fields are far apart: But the Savior's "Come ye blessed," All our labor will repay, When we gather in the morning Where the mists have rolled away.
We shall know as we are known Nevermore to walk alone In the dawning of the morning Of that bright and happy day. We shall know each other better, When the mists have rolled away.
We shall come with joy and gladness, We shall gather round the throne; Face to face with those that love us, We shall know as we are known: And the song of our redemption Shall resound thro' endless day, When the shadows have departed, and the mists have rolled away.
We shall know as we are known Nevermore to walk alone In the dawning of the morning Of that bright and happy day. We shall know each other better, When the mists have rolled away.

Rock of ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee; Let the water and the blood, From Thy wounded side which flowed, Be of sin the double cure, Save from wrath and make me pure.
Could my tears forever flow, Could my zeal no langour know, These for sin could not atone; Thou must save, and Thou alone; In my hand no price I bring, Simply to Thy cross I cling.
While I draw this fleeting breath, When my eyes shall close in death, When I rise to worlds unknown, And behold Thee on Thy throne, Rock of ages , cleft for me, Let mehide myself in Thee.

When the trumpet of the great archangel! It's mighty tones shall sound, And the end of the world proclaiming, Shall pierce the depths profound; When the Son of man shall come in His glory, With all the saints on high, What a shouting in the skies from the multitudes that rise,
Changed in the twinkling of an eye, Changed in the twinkling of an eye, Changed in the twinkling of an eye; The trumpet shall sound, the dead shall be raised, Changed in the twinkling of an eye.
When He comes in the clouds descending, And they who loved Him here, From their graves shall awake and praise Him! With joy and not with fear; When the body and the soul are united, And clothed no more to die, What a shouting there will be when each other's face we see.
Changed in the twinkling of an eye, Changed in the twinkling of an eye, Changed in the twinkling of an eye; The trumpet shall sound, the dead shall be raised, Changed in the twinkling of an eye.
O the seed that was sown in weakness, Shall then be raised in pow'r, And the songs of the bloodbought millions , Shall hail that blissful hour; When we gather safely home in the morning, And night's dark shadows fly, What a shouting on the shore when we meet to part no mre
Changed in the twinkling of an eye, Changed in the twinkling of an eye, Changed in the twinkling of an eye; The trumpet shall sound, the dead shall be raised, Changed in the twinkling of an eye.

We would help the sick, poor and needy; Tell about the Saviour as we go; Putting forth the talents He gave us, All our strength to battle the foe; Work in love and union together; Keeping the commandments of our Lord; then we claim the promises of God, our Father, Working for Him with one accord.

I was standing by my window on one cold and cloudy day
when I saw that hearse come rolling, Lord, to carry my Mother away.
Will the circle be unbroken
by and by Lord, by and by.
There's a better home awaiting
in the sky Lord, in the sky.
Undertaker, Undertaker, Undertaker, please drive slow
for that body you are hauling, Lord I hate to see her go.
Will the circle be unbroken
by and by Lord, by and by.
There's a better home awaiting
in the sky Lord, in the sky.
I will follow right behind her, try to stand strong and be brave.
But i know I won't hide my sorrow when they lay her in that grave.
Will the circle be unbroken
by and by Lord, by and by.
There's a better home awaiting
in the sky Lord, in the sky.

Little Is Much (When God Is In It)
From Generic Song Book
page 23
In the Harvest, fields now ripened.
There's a work for all to do.
Hark! The voice of God is calling.
To the harvest, calling you.
In the mad rush of the broad way,
in the hurry and the strife.
Tell of Jesus' love and mercy.
Give to them, the Word of Life.
Little is much when God is in it.
Labor not for wealth, or fame.
There's a crown and you can win it,
if you go in Jesus' name.
Does the place you're called to labor
seem to small and little known?
It is great when God is in it
and He'll not forget His own.
Little is much when God is in it.
Labor not for wealth, or fame.
There's a crown and you can win it,
if you go in Jesus' name.
Are you laid aside from service,
body worn from toil and care?
You can still be in the battle,
in the sacred place of prayer.
Little is much when God is in it.
Labor not for wealth, or fame.
There's a crown and you can win it,
if you go in Jesus' name.
When the conflict here is ended
and our race on Earth is run,
He will say if we are faithful,
"Welcome home, my child - Well done."
Little is much when God is in it.
Labor not for wealth, or fame.
There's a crown and you can win it,
if you go in Jesus' name.

Gathered by angels and carried away,

and the workers are so tired
and our weary hearts are yearnin' for a rest.
And we find we're getting anxious
to be in that happy land,
where we'll receive such peace and happiness.
(But) Wait a little longer, please Jesus.
There are so many wandering out in sin.
Wait a little longer, please Jesus.
A few more days to get our loved ones in.
We may look into the skies
and tears may fill our eyes,
for our burdened hearts grow heavier with each day.
First, we cry "Oh Lord please come
and take our children home".
But then we look around us and we say.
(But) Wait a little longer, please Jesus.
There are so many wandering out in sin.
Wait a little longer, please Jesus.
A few more days to get our loved ones in.
The family's scattered here and there.
But Lord, we love them dear.
And maybe we can help them find their way.
But if waiting is the cost,
that they might not be lost.

Wait a little longer, please Jesus.

Just suppose God searched all through Heaven
and He could not find one "Willing" to be.
The Supreme Sacrifice that was needed
to give eternal life for you and for me.
Had it not been for a place called Mt. Calvary.
Had it not been for the old rugged Cross.
Had it not been for a man called Jesus.
Then forever, my soul would be lost.
I'm so glad He was willing to drink His bitter cup
when He prayed "Father, let it pass from Me".
And I'm so glad He did not call Heaven's Angels,
"From My hands, pull these nails that torment Me".
Had it not been for a place called Mt. Calvary.
Had it not been for the old rugged Cross.
Had it not been for a man called Jesus.

Gone, the tomb is empty.

Gone, over death triumphant.
Gone, sin is defeated.
Gone, He lives forever more.

I beg of you don't wait too late to pray.
Don't wait until His Bride has been completed.
Don't wait until you hear Him say "It's too late".
Gone, the stone is rolled back.
Gone, the tomb is empty.
Gone, to sit at the Father's side,
Gone, over death triumphant.
Gone, sin is defeated.

Weary and tears I claimed for my own.
Then like the blind man that God gave back his sight,

No more darkness,
No more night.
Now I'm so happy,
no sorrow in sight.

Straight is the gate and narrow's the way.
Now I have traded the wrong for the right.
Praise the Lord, I saw the light.

No more darkness,
No more night.
Now I'm so happy,

28 I Can Tell You the Time
I Can Tell You the Time
From Generic Song Book
page 28
1. I remember the time when in darkness I wandered farther from home
On the mountain of sin I had traveled so long, I had traveled so long;
Like the prodigal son, all my goods I had squandered, sadly I'd roam,
But the Savior came in and He gave me a song, 'twas a beautiful song.
I can tell you now the time. (second part) I can tell you the time,
I can take you to the place, (second part) I can show you the place.
Where the Lord saved me, (second part) Where the Lord saved me
by His wonderful grace (by His wonderful grace)
But I cannot tell you how, (For I know not the how,)
and I cannot tell you why (and I know not the why, But He'll me all about it
He will tell me all about it in the by and by, in the by and by.
2. Just a sinner was I far away from my Savior, going alone,
With no hope of reward at the end of the way, at the end of the way,
But the Savior came down and He gave me his favor all for my own,
Now I'm singing His praise for He saved me that day, truly saved me that day.
I can tell you now the time. (second part) I can tell you the time,
I can take you to the place, (second part) I can show you the place.
Where the Lord saved me, (second part) Where the Lord saved me
by His wonderful grace (by His wonderful grace)
But I cannot tell you how, (For I know not the how,)
and I cannot tell you why (and I know not the why, But He'll me all about it
He will tell me all about it in the by and by, in the by and by.
3. I can never forget when He spoke to me gently "Follow thou Me,"
In the fountain of life there's a balm for your soul, there's a balm for you soul.
So, I heeded His voice He was speaking intently, gladly I see,
Thru His marvelous grace I am happy and whole, I am happy and whole.
I can tell you now the time. (second part) I can tell you the time,
I can take you to the place, (second part) I can show you the place.
Where the Lord saved me, (second part) Where the Lord saved me
by His wonderful grace (by His wonderful grace)
But I cannot tell you how, (For I know not the how,)
and I cannot tell you why (and I know not the why, But He'll me all about it
He will tell me all about it in the by and by, in the by and by.

I come to the gar-den a-lone, While the dew is till on the ros-es, And the voice I hear, Fall-ing on my ear, The Son of God dis-clos-es.
And He walks with me, and He talks with me, And He tells me I am His own; And the joy we share as we tar-ry there, None oth-er has ev-er known.
He speaks, and the sound of His voice Is so sweet the birds hush their sing-ing, And the mel-o-dy That He gave to me, With-in my heart is ring-ing,
And He walks with me, and He talks with me, And He tells me I am His own; And the joy we share as we tar-ry there, None oth-er has ev-er known.
I'd stay in the gar-den with Him Tho' the night a-round me be fal-ling, But He bids me go; Thro' the voice of woe His voice to me is cal-ling.
And He walks with me, and He talks with me, And He tells me I am His own; And the joy we share as we tar-ry there, None oth-er has ev-er known.

I'm pressing on the up-ward way, New heights I'm gaining ev-ry day: Still praying as I'm onward bound, " Lord, plant my feet on high-er ground."
Lord, lift me up and let me stand, By faith, on Heav-en's ta-ble-land, A high-er plane than I have found; Lord, plant my feet on high-er ground.
My heart has not de-sire to stay Where doubts a-rise and fears dis-may; Tho' some may dwell where these abound, My prayer, my aim, is high-er ground.
Lord, lift me up and let me stand, By faith, on Heav-en's ta-ble-land, A high-er plane than I have found; Lord, plant my feet on high-er ground.
I want to live a-bove the world, Tho' Sa-tan's darts at me are hurled; For faith has caught the joy-ful sound, The song of saints on high-er ground.
Lord, lift me up and let me stand, By faith, on Heav-en's ta-ble-land, A high-er plane than I have found; Lord, plant my feet on high-er ground.
I want to scale the utmost height, And catch a gleam of glo-ry bright; But still I'll pray till Heav'n I've found, " Lord, lead me on to high-er ground."
Lord, lift me up and let me stand, By faith, on Heav-en's ta-ble-land, A high-er plane than I have found; Lord, plant my feet on high-er ground.

I've got a mansion just over the hill-top. In that bright land where we'll never grow old And someday yon-der We will never more wander, But walk on streets that are purest gold.
Though of-ten tempt-ed, tor-ment-ed and test-ed and like the pro-phet, my pil-low a stone, And tho I find here, no per-ma-nent dwell-ing I know He'll give me a man-sion my own.

Let music swell the breeze, And ring from all the trees Sweet freedom's song; Let mortal tongues awake; Let all that breathe partake; Let rocks their silence break, The sound prolong.

Once my soul was a-stray from the heav-en-ly way, And was wretched and vile as could be;______But my Sav-iour a-bove, gave me peace joy and love, When He reached down His hand for me, for me.
When He reached down His hand for me,____When He reached down His hand for me: I was lost and undone, with-out God or His Son, When He reached down His hand for me, for me.
I was near-ing despair, when He came to me there, And He showed me that I could be free;______Then He lift-ed my feet, gave me glory complete, When He reached down His hand for me, for me.
When He reached down His hand for me,____When He reached down His hand for me: I was lost and undone, with-out God or His Son, When He reached down His hand for me, for me.
Hoe my heart doth re-joice since I made Him my choice, From the tem-pest to Him now I flee;_____ Now I lean on His arm, I'm se-cure from all harm, Since He reached down His hand for me, for me.
When He reached down His hand for me,____When He reached down His hand for me: I was lost and undone, with-out God or His Son, When He reached down His hand for me, for me.
Since the Lord gave me peace heavn'ly joy never cease, Lord I give all my life un-to Thee;___Guide my feet, hold my hand, grant with Thee I may stand. For you reached done your hand for me, for me.
When He reached down His hand for me,____When He reached down His hand for me: I was lost and undone, with-out God or His Son, When He reached down His hand for me, for me.

I was alone and idle.
I was a sinner too.
I heard a voice from heaven
saying "There is work to do".
I took my Master's hand
and I joined that heavenly band.
Now, I'm on the battlefield for my Lord.
I'm on the battlefield for my Lord
Yes, I'm on the battlefield for my Lord
I promised Him that I
would serve Him 'til i die
Now, I'm on the battlefield for my Lord.
I lost my flag in battle.
My staff is in my hand.
I'm taking it to Jesus
over in the Glory-Land.
In distant land i trod
crying "sinner come to God".
Now, I'm on the battlefield for my Lord.
I'm on the battlefield for my Lord
Yes, I'm on the battlefield for my Lord
I promised Him that I
would serve Him 'til i die
Now, I'm on the battlefield for my Lord.
I'm fighting for my Savior.
The battle is most won.
The Trumpet will be sounding,
the coming of the Son.
I'll lay my armor down.
pick up my robe and crown
and walk the golden street with my Lord.
I'm on the battlefield for my Lord
Yes, I'm on the battlefield for my Lord
I promised Him that I
would serve Him 'til i die
Now, I'm on the battlefield for my Lord.

The Lord has been so good to me.
He set my captive spirit free.
Old things have passed away.
All things are new today.
He gave me light for paths so dim.
O how I've changed since i found him.
I'm in a new world
since the Lord saved me.
I'm in a new world.
Old things have passed away.
Behold, all things are new
ever since that happy day.
He opened up my blinded eyes
and then I had a great surprise.
I'm in a new world
since the Lord saved me.
While traveling down this sinful road,
I had no friend to share my load.
I wandered here and there,
yet, no one seemed to care.
But when i knelt that night to pray,
I stepped into a brand new day.
I'm in a new world
since the Lord saved me.
I'm in a new world.
Old things have passed away.
Behold, all things are new
ever since that happy day.
He opened up my blinded eyes
and then I had a great surprise.
I'm in a new world
since the Lord saved me.
I can't explain the way i feel.
There is no doubt, I know it's real.
There's glory in my soul.
The Hallelujahs roll.
Tho' earthly friends may turn me down,
I'll still retain the peace I've found.
I'm in a new world
since the Lord saved me.
I'm in a new world.
Old things have passed away.
Behold, all things are new
ever since that happy day.
He opened up my blinded eyes
and then I had a great surprise.
I'm in a new world
since the Lord saved me.

Jesus has a table spread, Where the saints of God are fed, He invites His chosen people "Come and dine" With His manna He doth feed, and supplies our ev'ry need O 'tis sweet to sup with Jesus all the time.
"Come and Dine" the Master calleth "Come and dine" you may feast at Jesus' table all the time. He who fed the multitude, turned the water into wine, to the hungry calleth now, "Come and dine"
The disciples came to land, Thus obeying Christ's command, for the Master called to them "O Come and dine" There they found their hearts' desire, bread and fish upon the fire. Thus he satisfies the hungry ev'ry time.
"Come and Dine" the Master calleth "Come and dine" you may feast at Jesus' table all the time. He who fed the multitude, turned the water into wine, to the hungry calleth now, "Come and dine"
Soon the Lamb will take His bride to be ever at His side, All the host of heaven will assembled be; O 'Twill be a glorious sight, all the saints in spotless white; And with Jesus they will feast eternally.
