Amazing Grace

Amazing Grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now am found
Was blind but now I see.

T’was Grace that taught my heart to fear
And Grace my fears relieved
How precious did that Grace appear
The hour I first believed.

Through many dangers toils and snares
I have already come
Tis Grace that brought me safe thus far
And Grace will lead me home.

The Lord has promised good to me
His word my hope secures
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures.

Yes when this heart and flesh shall fail
And mortal life shall cease
I shall possess within the veil
A life of joy and peace.

When we’ve been there ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we first began.
Pass Me Not O Gentle Saviour

Pass me not, O gentle Saviour,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling;
Do not pass me by.

Saviour, Saviour,
Hear my humble cry,
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.

Let me at a throne of mercy
Find a sweet relief;
Kneeling there in deep contrition,
Help my unbelief

Trusting only in Thy merit,
Would I seek Thy face;
Heal my wounded, broken spirit,
Save me by Thy grace.

Thou the spring of all my comfort,
More than life to me,
Whom have I on earth beside Thee,
Whom in Heav’n but Thee.

What A Friend We Have In Jesus

What a friend we have in Jesus
All our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privileged to carry,
Everything to God in prayer.
O what peace we often forfeit!
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer!

Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged,
Take it to the Lord in prayers.

Can we find a friend so faithful
Who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness
Take it to the Lord in prayer.

Are we weak and heavy laden?
Cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Saviour, still our refuge:
Take it to the Lord in prayer!
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
In his arms he’ll take and shield thee,
Thou will find a solace there.
