- From every stormy wind that blows,
From every swelling tide of woes,
There is a calm, a sure retreat:
’Tis found beneath the mercy seat. - There is a place where Jesus sheds
The oil of gladness on our heads;
A place than all besides more sweet:
It is the blood-bought mercy seat. - There is a scene where spirits blend,
Where friend holds fellowship with friend;
Though sundered far, by faith they meet
Around one common mercy seat. - There, there, on eagles’ wings we soar,
And time and sense seem all no more;
A...

- Though life’s changing values may vanish away,
And things that were real become dreams;
How blessed to walk with the Lord day by day,
And know He is real as He seems.- Refrain:
Jesus is real to me,
Yes, Jesus is real to me;
I never will doubt Him,
Nor journey without Him,
For He is so real to me.
- I never have seen Him with these eyes of mine,
But though He be hid from my sight,
I know He is with me in Spirit divine—
I live in the strength of His might. - My Savior and Leader each moment is He,
My helper in...

- Glory to God on high,
Let praises fill the sky!
Praise ye His name.
Angels His name adore,
Who all our sorrows bore,
And saints cry evermore,
“Worthy the Lamb!” - All they around the throne
Cheerfully join in one,
Praising His name.
We who have felt His blood,
Sealing our peace with God,
Spread His dear name abroad—
“Worthy the Lamb!” - To Him our hearts we raise—
None else shall have our praise;
Praise ye His name.
Him our exalted Lord,
By us below adored,
We praise with one accord—
“Worthy the Lamb...

- I heard the voice of Jesus say,
“Come unto Me and rest;
Lay down, thou weary one, lay down
Thy head upon My breast.”
I came to Jesus as I was,
Weary and worn and sad;
I found in Him a resting place,
And He has made me glad. - I heard the voice of Jesus say,
“Behold, I freely give
The living water; thirsty one,
Stoop down, and drink, and live.”
I came to Jesus, and I drank
Of that life-giving stream;
My thirst was quenched, my soul revived,
And now I live in Him. - I heard the voice of Jesus say,
“I am t...

- There was a time on earth, when in the book of Heav’n
An old account was standing for sins yet unforgiv’n;
My name was at the top, and many things below—
I went unto the Keeper, and settled long ago.- Refrain:
Long ago, long ago,
Yes, the old account was settled long ago;
And the record’s clear today, for He washed my sins away,
When the old account was settled long ago.
- The old account was large, and growing every day,
For I was always sinning, and never tried to pay;
But when I looked ahead, an...
