1 A COMMON LOVE 4 THE LORD IS IN HIS HOLY TEMPLE
A common love for each other, The Lord is in His holy temple:
A common gift to the Savior, Let all the earth keep silence before Him;
A common bond holding us to the Lord; Keep silence, keep silence,
A common strength when we’re weary, Keep silence before Him.
A common hope for tomorrow,
A common joy in the truth of God’s Word.

5 LORD, BE THERE
2 THEY’LL KNOW WE ARE CHRISTIANS… {soprano only}
Lord, be there for me when I fall.
VERSE 1 Be there for me when I call.
We are one in the Spirit; we are one in the Lord, Be there for me, dear Lord.
We are one in the Spirit; we are one in the Lord,
And we pray that our unity may one day be restored: {add tenor}
Lord, You know I always need You;
VERSE 2 And I know that, Lord, You’ll be there.
We will walk with each other; we will walk hand in hand,
We will walk with each other; we will walk hand in hand, {add alto}
And together we’ll spread the news that God is in our land: Lord, be there when I fall.
Be there for me, dear Lord.
VERSE 3
We will work with each other; we will work side by side, {add bass}
We will work with each other; we will work side by side, Worthy is the Lamb of God;
And we’ll guard each man’s dignity and save each man’s pride: He is all I need.

VERSE 4
All praise to the Father, from whom all things come,
And all praise to Christ Jesus, His only Son,
And all praise to the Spirit who makes us one: 6 I KNOW THE LORD WILL MAKE A WAY FOR ME

REFRAIN VERSE 1
And they’ll know we are Christians by our love, by our love, I know the Lord will make a way for me,
Yes they’ll know we are Christians by our love. I know the Lord will make a way for me.

VERSE 2
The Lord has said, “Go preach the word to all the world,”
The Lord has said, “Go preach the word to all the world.”
3 A HILL CALLED MOUNT CALVARY
VERSE 3
VERSE 1 Won’t it be grand to hear Him say, “Well done,”
There are things as we travel this earth’s shifting sands, Won’t it be grand to hear Him say, “Well done.”
That transcend all the reason of man;
But the things that matter the most in this world, CHORUS
They can never be held in our hands. If I walk in heaven’s light,
Shun the wrong and do the right,
VERSE 2 {verse 1} I know the Lord will make a way for me.
I believe that the Christ who was slain on the cross, {verse 2} I know the Lord will make a way for me.
Has the power to change lives today; {verse 3} Won’t it be grand to hear Him say, “Well
For He changed me completely, a new life is mine; done.”
That is why by the cross I will stay.

VERSE 3
I believe that this life with its great mysteries,
Surely someday will come to an end; 7 GALATIANS 2:20
But faith will conquer the darkness and death
And will lead me at last to my Friend. {repeat faster x3}

CHORUS I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live;

I believe in a hill called Mount Calv’ry— Yet not I, but Christ liveth in me:
I’ll believe whatever the cost; And the life which I now live in the flesh
And when time has surrendered and earth is no more, I live by the faith of the Son of God,
I’ll still cling to that old rugged cross. Who loved me, and gave Himself for me.

Reaching out to hold Your hand, Only You can satisfy.

Now I believe, Jesus, now I believe, CHORUS
Your cruel death was part of a heavenly plan. You alone are my strength, my shield;

24 BEULAH LAND 26 COME, SHARE THE LORD

VERSE 1 VERSE 1
I’ve reached the land of love divine We gather here in Jesus’ name,
And all its riches freely mine; His love is burning in our hearts like living flame.
Here shines undimmed one blissful day, For thru the loving Son the Father makes us one.
For all my night has passed away. Come take the bread,
Come drink the cup,
VERSE 2 Come share the Lord.
My Savior comes and walks with me, No one is a stranger here, every one belongs.
And sweet communion here have we; Finding forgiveness here, we in turn forgive all wrongs
He gently leads me by His hand,
For this is heaven’s borderland. VERSE 2
He joins us here, He breaks the bread.
VERSE 3 The Lord who pours the cup is risen from the dead.
The zephyrs seem to float to me, The One we love the most is now our gracious host.
Sweet sounds of heaven’s melody, Come take the bread,
As angels with the white-robed throng Come drink the cup,
Join in the sweet Redemption song. Come share the Lord.
We are now a family of which the Lord is head.
CHORUS Though unseen He meets us here in the breaking of the bread.
O Beulah Land, sweet Beulah Land,
As on thy highest mount I stand, VERSE 3
I look away across the sea, We’ll gather soon where angels sing;
Where mansions are prepared for me, We’ll see the glory of our Lord and coming King.
And view the shining glory shore, Now we anticipate the feast for which we wait.
My heaven, my home forevermore! Come take the bread,
Come drink the cup,
Come share the Lord.

25 MY EYES ARE DRY

VERSE 1
My eyes are dry, my faith is old, 27 FOLLOW ME
My heart is hard, my prayers are cold.
And I know how I ought to be, VERSE 1
Alive to You and dead to me. I traveled down a lonely road and no one seemed to care,
The burden on my weary back had bowed me to despair,
What can be done to an old heart like mine? I oft complained to Jesus how folks were treating me,
Soften it up with oil and wine. And then I heard Him say so tenderly:
The oil is You, Your spirit of love. “My feet were also weary, upon the Calv’ry road;
Please wash me anew in the wine of Your blood. The cross became so heavy; I fell beneath the load.
Be faithful weary pilgrim the morning I can see,
VERSE 2 Just lift your cross and follow close to Me.”
My songs are cold, My prayers are dust;
My vision gone, I’ve lost my trust, VERSE 2
But still I know how life should be, “I work so hard for Jesus” I often boast and say;
Alive to You and dead to me. “I’ve sacrificed a lot of things to walk the narrow way,
I gave up fame and fortune; I’m worth a lot to Thee,”
What can be done to an old heart like mine? And then I hear Him gently say to me:
Soften it up with oil and wine. “I left the throne of glory and counted it but loss,
The oil is You, Your spirit of love. My hands were nailed in anger upon a cruel cross
Please wash me anew in the wine of Your blood. But now we’ll make the journey with your hand safe in Mine,
So lift your cross and follow close to Me.”
VERSE 3
Your grace has covered all my sin, VERSE 3
And now Your presence reigns within. Oh, Jesus if I die upon a foreign field some day,
I am redeemed! I’ve been set free! ‘Twould be no more than love demands; no less could I repay,
Alive to You and dead to me. “No greater love hath mortal man than for a friend to die”
These are the words He gently spoke to me:
Look what You’ve done to this old heart of mine: “If just a cup of water I place within your hand
Softened it up with oil and wine. Then just a cup of water is all that I demand,”
The oil is You, Your spirit of love. But if by death to living they can Thy glory see,
You’ve washed me anew in the wine of Your blood. I’ll take my cross and follow close to Thee.

To my immortal home. Someday.

And with all the blest

With the Lord there in your midst? Where there is no night;

Have you seen Jesus my Lord? When my name is called
He’s here in plain view. From the roll of life,

VERSE 1 VERSE 1
On bended knee I come, with a humble heart I come; Here I labor and toil as I look for a home,
Bowing down before Your holy throne. Just an humble abode among men,
Lifting holy hands to You, as I pledge my love anew, While in heaven a mansion is waiting for me
I worship You in spirit, And a gentle voice pleading, “Come in.”
I worship You in truth;
Make my life a holy praise unto You. VERSE 2
Ever thankful am I that my Savior and Lord
VERSE 2 Promised unto the weary sweet rest;
On bended knee I come, with a broken heart I come; Nothing more could I ask than a mansion above,
Bowing down before Your holy throne. There to live with the saved and the blest.
As I look upon Your face, show Your mercy and Your grace,
Change my life, O Holy Spirit, VERSE 3
Make me fresh and ever new; When my labor and toiling have ended below
Make my life a holy sacrifice to You. And my hands shall lie folded in rest,
I’ll exchange this old home for a mansion up there
And invite the arch angel as guest.

132 FAITHFUL LOVE CHORUS

There’s a mansion now empty, just waiting for me
{alto/tenor echo} At the end of life’s troublesome way,
Many friends and dear loved ones will welcome me there
VERSE 1 Near the door of that mansion some day.
Faithful love flowing down from the thorn-covered crown,
Makes me whole, saves my soul, washes whiter than snow.
Faithful love calms each fear, reaches down, dries each tear;
Holds my hand when I can’t stand on my own.

VERSE 2
Faithful love is a friend just when hope seems to end,
Welcome face, sweet embrace, tender touch filled with grace.
Faithful love, endless power, living flame, Spirit’s fire;
Burning bright in the night, guiding my way.

CHORUS
Faithful love, (Faithful love,)
From above (From above)
Came to earth to show the Father’s love.
And I’ll never (And I’ll never)
Be the same, (Be the same,)
For I’ve seen faithful love face to face, and Jesus is His name.

133 SHOUT TO THE LORD

My Jesus, my Savior,
Lord, there is none like You;
All of my days
I want to praise
The wonders of Your mighty love.
My comfort, my Shelter,
Tower of refuge and strength;
Let every breath, all that I am,
Never cease to worship You.

Shout to the Lord, all the earth, let us sing

Power and majesty, praise to the King;
Mountains bow down and the seas will roar
At the sound of Your name.
I sing for joy at the work of Your hands,
Forever I’ll love You, forever I’ll stand,
Nothing compares to the promise I have in You.
