264 (F) RH 713 OB 220
Blest be the tie that binds
Our hearts in Christian love;
The fellowship of kindred minds
Is like to that above.
2) Before our Father's throne,
We pour our ardent prayers;
Our fears, our hopes, our aims are one,
Our comforts and our cares.
3) We share our mutual woes;
Our mutual burdens bear;
And often for each other flows
The sympathising tear.
4) When we asunder part,
It gives us inward pain;
But we shall still be joined in heart;
And hope to meet again.
5) This glorious hope revives
Our courage by the way,
While each in expectation lives,
And longs to see the day.
6) From sorrow, toil and pain,
And sin we shall be free,
And perfect love and friendship reign
Through all eternity.
265 (Eb) RH 354 MP 401 OB 154
Just as I am, without one plea,
But that Thy blood was shed for me,
And that Thou bidst me come to Thee,
O Lamb of God, I come.
2) Just as I am, and waiting not
To rid my soul of one dark blot,
To Thee, whose blood
Can cleanse each spot,
O Lamb of God, I come.
3) Just as I am, though tossed about
With many a conflict, many a doubt,
Fightings and fears within, without,
O Lamb of God, I come.
4) Just as I am, poor, wretched, blind
Sight, riches, healing of the mind,
Yea, all I need, in Thee to find,
O Lamb of God, I come.
|
5) Just as I am, Thou wilt receive,
Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve
Because Thy promise I believe,
O Lamb of God, I come.
6) Just as I am, Thy love unknown
Has broken every barrier down;
Now to be Thine, yea, Thine alone,
O Lamb of God, I come.
7) Just as I am, of that free love
The breadth, length, depth
And height to prove,
Here for a season, then above,
O Lamb of God I come.
266 (Bb) OB 151
They were gathered in the upper room
All praying in His name
They were baptised with the Holy Ghost
And power for service came,
And now what He did for them that day,
He'll do for you the same,
I'm so glad that I can say
I'm one of them.
Chorus:
One of them, one of them,
I'm so glad that I can say
I'm one of them.
One of them, one of them,
I'm so glad that I can say
I'm one of them.
2) Though these people may not claim to be
Or boast of worldly fame,
They have all received their Pentecost
Baptised in Jesus' name.
And they're telling now, both far and wide
His power is yet the same,
I'm so glad that I can say
I'm one of them.
3) Come my brother seek this blessing
That will cleanse your heart from sin,
That will start the joy bells ringing
And will keep your soul on flame.
Oh it's burning now within my heart
Oh glory to His name,
I'm so glad that I can say
I'm one of them.
