Make Me Whole

Touch my eyes and bid them see

That my gaze might pierce the veil,

And behold the wondrous scene

That, in dreams, I've long beheld.

Oh, touch my heart and bid it know

That ev'ry sorrow here

Is but a moment's tear,

And Thou wilt make me whole again.

Touch my ears and bid them hear

All the glory of Thy truth,

That my hope might come of faith

And no more require proof.

Oh, touch my heart and bid it know

That, while in darkness here,

The Light is ever near,

And Thou wilt make me whole again.

Then touch my lips and bid them sing

Songs of everlasting praise,

That my soul might then believe

And give thanks through all my days!

Oh touch my heart and bid it know

That ev'ry breath I take

Is by Thy tender grace,

And Thou wilt make me whole,

And Thou wilt make me whole,

Oh, Thou wilt make me whole again.

Here is Hope

He who healed our sorrows,

Here was bruised and broken.

He, whose love no end knows,

Here was forsaken, left all alone.

Here despair cries boldly

Claiming this its vict'ry

Sweeter peace enfolds me;

Hope did not die here,

But here was given.

Here is hope.

He who was rejected

He knows well my longing.

He so long expected

Carried our burdens

Bore every sorrow

Here is hope

Here

Here is hope!

Here is love unbounded

Here is love and passion

Here is mercy founded.

Hope did not die here,

But here was given.

And ours is the vict'ry.

Here is hope.

There Are Angels

Every shepherd knows the name of all his sheep,

And not one can come to harm while in his keep.

But when they wander from their keeper,

Who is there to hold them near?

Do they know that there’s no reason for their fear?

For there are angels watching over the Shepherd’s sheep,

To warm them in the night and guard their sheep.

And there are angels to hold them through the rain,

To guide them safely to the fold again.

If from his nest a sparrow cannot fall

Unnoticed by the Shepherd of us all

Can it be that He’s forsaken you

through the hardships, you have known?

Do you know that you will never walk alone?

For there are angels watching over the Shepherds sheep,

To warm them in the night and guard their sheep.

And there are angels to hold them through the rain,

To guide them safely to the fold again.

To guide them safely to the fold again.

Savior Redeemer of My Soul

Savior, redeemer of my soul

Whose mighty hand hath made me whole

Whose wondrous pow'r hath raised me up

And filled with sweet my bitter cup!

What tongue my gratitude can tell

O gracious God of Israel

Never can I repay Thee, Lord

But I can love Thee, Thy pure word

Hath it not been my one delight

My joy by day, my dream by night?

Then let my lips proclaim it still

And all my life reflect Thy will

O'errule mine acts to serve Thine ends

Change frowning foes to smiling friends

Chasten my soul 'til I shall be

In perfect harmony with Thee

Make me more worthy of Thy love

And fit me for the life above

Hosanna

(Thy Savior Hath Come)

The promise of ages whom prophets foretold,

For whom we have waited ere long.

Hath come to redeem us from slaverys' yoke,

And deliver His people back home.

Come Israel, come and see He who shall reign,

In whom we will ever rejoice.

We hear the sound of the glorious refrain,

And it echoeth back in our voice.

Hosanna, hosanna, thy Saviour hath come.

O Israel and blessed He'll ever be called.

Hosanna, hosanna, sing praises to God.

For our hope, our deliv'rer, our all.

Oh, why should we wander as strangers from thee?

And turn from thy bounteous hand?

Restore (and defend us, oh), set us free;

That beside thee, we ever may stand.

He looks and ten thousands of angels rejoice,

And myriads wait for his word.

He speaks and eternity, filled with His voice,

Re-echoes the praise of her Lord.

Hosanna, hosanna thy Saviour hath come,

Our Hope! Our Salvation! Our All!

There is nothing to fear to fear from the cold

There is nothing to fear from what might be tomorrow

My Kindness Shall Not Depart

For a little while

Have I forsaken thee

But with great mercies will I gather thee

In a little wrath I hid my face from thee

For a moment But with everlasting kindness will I gather thee

And with mercy will I take thee 'neath my wings

For the mountains shall depart

And the hills shall be removed

And the valleys shall be lost beneath the sea

But know, my child

My kindness shall not depart from thee

Though thine afflictions seem

At times too great to bear

I know thine every thought and every care

And though the very jaws

Of hell gape after thee I am with thee

And with everlasting mercy will I succor thee

And with healing will I take thee 'neath my wings

Though the mountains shall depart

And the hills shall be removed

And the valleys shall be lost beneath the sea

Know, my child

My kindness shall not depart from thee

How long can rolling waters

Remain impure?

What pow'r shall stay the hand of God?

The Son of Man hath descended below all things

Art thou greater than He?

So hold on thy way

For I shall be with thee

And mine angels shall encircle thee

Doubt not what thou knowest

Fear not man, for he

Cannot hurt thee

And with everlasting kindness will I succor thee

And with mercy will I take thee 'neath my wings

For the mountains shall depart

And the hills shall be removed

And the valleys shall be lost beneath the sea

But know, my child

My kindness shall not depart from thee

Sometime We’ll Understand

Not now, but in the coming years,

It may not be when we demand,

We'll read the meaning of our tears,

And there, sometime, we'll understand

Why what we long for most of all

Eludes our open, pleading hand;

Why ever silence meets our call,

Somewhere, sometime, we'll understand.

So trust in God through all thy days;

Fear not, for He doth hold thy hand;

Though dark thy way, still sing and praise,

Sometime, sometime we'll understand.

Sometime, we'll fall on bended knee,

And feel there, graven on His hand

Sometime with tearless eyes we'll see

What, here, we could not understand.

So trust in God through all the days;

Fear not, for He doth hold thy hand;

Though dark thy way, still sing and praise,

Sometime, sometime we'll understand.
