Wake The Song Of Jubilee by Leonard Bacon

Posted by Kiki Riki on Saturday, September 1, 2012
  1. Wake the song of jubilee,
    Let it echo o’er the sea—
    Now is come the promised hour,
    Jesus reigns with sov’reign pow’r.
    All ye nations, join and sing,
    “Christ of lords and kings is King”;
    Let it sound from shore to shore,
    “Jesus reigns forevermore.”
  2. Now the desert lands rejoice,
    And the islands join their voice,
    Yea, the whole creation sings,
    “Jesus is the King of kings.”
    See the ransomed millions stand,
    Palms of conquest in their hands,
    This before the throne their strain,
    “Hell is ...

I Love Him Because He First Loved Me by Frank E. Roush

Posted by Kiki Riki on Friday, August 10, 2012
  1. Christ Jesus my Lord from Heaven came,
    To save me from guilt and sin and shame;
    His death on the cross of Calvary
    Brought pardon and gave me liberty.

    • Refrain:
      I love Him because He first loved me,
      He first loved me, He first loved me;
      I love Him because He first loved me,
      And died on the cross of Calvary.
  2. He sweat drops of blood in prayer for me,
    Heartbroken in dark Gethsemane;
    While angels from blessed realms of light
    Gave strength to His aching heart that night.
  3. Up Calvary’s hill the cros...

Glorious Things Of Thee Are Spoken by John Newton

Posted by Kiki Riki on Friday, July 27, 2012
  1. Glorious things of thee are spoken,
    Zion, city of our God!
    He, whose Word cannot be broken,
    Formed thee for His own abode;
    On the Rock of Ages founded,
    What can shake thy sure repose?
    With salvation’s walls surrounded,
    Thou mayst smile at all thy foes.
  2. See, the streams of living waters,
    Springing from eternal love,
    Well supply thy sons and daughters,
    And all fear of want remove:
    Who can faint while such a river
    Ever flows their thirst t’ assuage?
    Grace which, like the Lord, the giver,
    Never fails fr...

  1. Thou my everlasting portion,
    More than friend or life to me,
    All along my pilgrim journey,
    Savior, let me walk with Thee.

      Close to Thee, close to Thee,
      Close to Thee, close to Thee;
      All along my pilgrim journey,
      Savior, let me walk with Thee.
  2. Not for ease or worldly pleasure,
    Nor for fame my prayer shall be;
    Gladly will I toil and suffer,
    Only let me walk with Thee.
    • Refrain 2:
      Close to Thee, close to Thee,
      Close to Thee, close to Thee,
      Gladly will I toil and suffer,
      Only let me walk with Thee.
  3. Lead ...

Praise God For His Word by George O. Webster

Posted by Kiki Riki on Saturday, July 14, 2012
  1. Praise God for His Word! from its pages divine
    Came the light of His love to this poor heart of mine:
    I had wandered afar in the byways of sin,
    When the light of His truth to my heart entered in.

      Praise God for His grace which its pages unfold!
      For the story of love which will never grow old!
      For the light on life’s pathway which streams from its pages!
      Praise God for His Word, blessed Book of the Ages!
  2. Praise God for His Word; for the heavenly light
    It is sending afar into sin’s darksome ...
