2 Calm 'mid the tempest around us that rages, 'Mid the lone weariness ever at rest; Silent amid the rude uproar of voices, Sometimes disquieted, never opprest.

3 Happy in Him who hath loved us and bought us,
Rich in the life which He gives to His own,
Filled with the peace passing all understanding,
Never less lonely than just when alone.

4 Safe in His stength, in His love ever happy,
What are the tremblings and tossings of time?
Firm in His grasp, to His arm ever clinging,
Upward, still upward, we buoyantly climb.
5 High on the rock, in our fortress sure sheltered,
Wave, wind, and foeman assail us in vain,
Buckler and shield is He, what can alarm us?
What though the fiery darts shower like the rain?
6 Lead on, our Captain, we follow, we follow ;
Life is no slumber, our battle no dream ;
Lift up Thy banner, we rally, we rally;
Wave high Thy sword, we press on in its gleam.
7 Jesus, to Thee we look, Saviour Almighty;
Jesus, on Thee we rest, happy and free;
Jesus, on Thee we feed, bread of the hungry;
Jesus our all, lo! we lean upon Thee!

8 What are the shadows around us still floating?
Sunshine is glowing all brightly above;
Heed not the height of the cliffs we are climbing,
From them we gaze on the land that we love.

TRU

Come I; Lord, lovingly
Come Thou to me!

Then shall I lovingly,
Then shall I joyfully,

Walk here with Thee.

2 Peacefully, peacefully
Walk I with Thee;
Jesus, my Lord, Thou art
All, all to me;

Peace Thou hast left to us.
Thy peace hast given us,
So let it be.

3 Whom but Thyself, O Lord,
Have I above?

What have I left on earth?
Only Thy love!

Come then, O Saviour, come;
Come then, O Spirit, come
Heavenly dove !

4 Happily, happily,

Pass I along,

Eager to work for Thee,
May I be strong.

Life is for service true,
Life is for battle too,
Life is for song.

5 Hopefully, hopefully,
Ónward I go;

Cheerfully, cheerfully,

Meet I the foe.

Crowns are awaiting us,
Glory prepared for us,
Joys overflow.

731 He that loveth not, knoweth not God.

I John iv. 8.

IVER fainting with desire,

E' For Thee, O Christ, I call ;

Thee I restlessly require;

I want my God, my All!
Jesus, dear redeeming Lord,

I wait Thy coming from above:
Help me, Saviour, speak the word,
And perfect me in love.

2 Thou, my Life, my Treasure be,
My portion here below;
Nothing would I seek but Thee,
Thee only would I know.
My exceeding great Reward,

My heaven on earth, my heaven above!
Help me, Saviour, speak the word,

And perfect me in love.

3 Grant me now the bliss to feel
Of those that are in Thee;
Son of God, Thyself reveal,
Engrave Thy name on me;
As in heaven be here adored,

And let me now the promise prove ;
Help me, Saviour, speak the word,
And perfect me in love.
