Chorus 255-258

255    (Eb)    MP 386

Each step I take my Saviour goes before me.
And with His loving hand He leads the way;
And with each breath I whisper
"I adore Thee;"
Oh, what joy to talk with Him each day.


Each step I take
I know that He will guide me;
To higher ground
He ever leads me on.
Until some day the last step shall be taken
Each step I take just leads me closer home.


2) At times I feel my faith begins to waver,
When up ahead I see a chasm wide,
It's then I turn and look up to my Saviour,
I am strong when He is by my side.
3) I trust in God, no matter come what may,
For life eternal is in His hand,
He holds the key that opens up the way,
That will lead me to the promised land.


256     (F)      MP 497

Shackled by a heavy burden
'Neath a load of guilt and shame,
Then the hand of Jesus touched me,
And now I am no longer the same.

He touched me,
Yes, He touched me;
And oh, the joy
That floods my soul,
Something happened,
And now I know,
He touched me
And made me whole.


2) Since I met this blessed Saviour,
Since He cleansed and made me whole,
I shall never cease to praise Him,
I'll shout it while eternity rolls.

 

257   (Bb)  RH 626  MP 470  OB 35

I was sinking deep in sin,
Sinking to rise no more,
Overwhelmed by guilt within,
Mercy I did implore,
Then the Master of the sea
Heard my despairing cry,
Christ my Saviour lifted me,
Now safe am I.

Chorus:
                Love lifted me,
               Love lifted me,
               When no one but Christ could help,
               Love lifted me. (repeat)

 

 

 

 

 

2) Souls in danger, look above,
Jesus completely saves;
He will lift you by His love,
Out of the angry waves.
He's the Master of the sea,
Billows His will obey;
He your Saviour wants to be
Be saved today!


3) When the waves of sorrow roll,
When I am in distress,
Jesus takes my hand in His,
Ever He loves to bless,
He will every fear dispel,
Satisfy every need;
All who heed His loving call,
Find rest indeed.


258      (Ab)      RH 472      OB 8

As I journey through the land
Singing as I go,
Pointing souls to Calvary
To the crimson flow,
Many arrows pierce my soul
From without, within;
But my Lord leads me on,
Through Him I must win.
             Oh I want to see Him,
            Look upon His face,
           There to sing forever,
           Of His saving grace;
           On the streets of Glory
           Let me lift my voice;
           Cares all past, home at last,
           Ever to rejoice.


2) When in service for my Lord
Dark may be the night,
But I'll cling more close to Him,
He will give me light;
Satan's snares may vex my soul,
Turn my thoughts aside;
But my Lord goes ahead,
Leads whate'er betide.

 

3) When in valleys low I look
T'ward the mountain height,
And behold my Saviour there,
Leading in the fight,
With a tender hand outstretched
T'ward the valley low,
Guiding me, I can see,
As I onward go.


4) When before me billows rise
From the mighty deep,
Then my Lord directs my barque;
He doth safely keep,
And He leads me gently on
Through this world below
He's a real Friend to me,
O I love Him so.
