HIS EYE IS ON THE SPARROW
Author: Civilla D. Martin
Charles H. Gabriel

Chorus:

I SING BECAUSE I'M HAPPY [I'M HAPPY]
I SING BEAUSE I'M FREE [I'M FREE]
FOR HIS EYE IS ON THE SPARROW,
AND I KNOW HE WATCHES ME

Verse 1:

Why should I  feel discouraged
Why should the shadows come
Why should  my heart be lonely
And long for Heav'n and home
When Jesus is my portion?
My constant Friend is He
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches me
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches me

Verse 2

Let not your heart be troubled
His tender word I hear
And resting on His goodness
I lose my doubts and fears
Tho by the path He leadeth
But one step I may see
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches me
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know he watches me.

Verse 3

Whenever I am tempted
Whenever cloud arise
When song give place to singing
When hope within me dies
I draw the closer to Him
From care He sets me free
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He cares for me
His eye is one the sparrow
And I know He watches me

WORK FOR THE NIGHT IS COMING
Author: Annie L. Coghill
            Lowell Mason

Verse 1:

Work, for the night is coming, Work thro' the morning hours
Work while the dew is sparkling , Work 'mid springing flowers
Work when the day grows brighter, Work in the glowing sun
Work, for the night is coming, When man's work is done

Verse 2:
Work, for the night is coming, Work thro' the sunny noon
Fill brightest hours with labour, Rest comes sure and soon
Give every flying minute, Something to keep in store
Work, for the night is coming, When man works no more

Verse 3
Work, for the night is coming, Under the sunset skies
While their bright tints are glowing, WOrk, for daylight flies
Work till the last beam fadeth, Fadeth to shine no more
Work, while the night is darkening, When man's work is o'er.

WHO IS ON THE LORD'S SIDE?

Verse 1
Who is on the Lord's side? Who will serve the King? Who will be His helpers, other lives to bring?
Who will leave the world's side? Who will face the foe? Who is on the Lord's side?
Who for Him will go? By Thy call of mercy, By Thy grace divine,
We are on the Lord's side, Saviour, we are Thine.

Verse 2
Not for weight of glory, Not for crown and palm, Enter we the army, Raise the warrior palm;
But for love that claimeth, Lives for whom He died; He whom Jesus nameth
Must be on His side.
By Thy love constraining, By Thy grace divine
We are on the Lord's side, Saviour, we are Thine

Verse 3
Jesus, Thou hast brought us, Not with gold or gem, But with Thine own lifeblood,
For Thy diadem, With Thy blessing filling, Each who comes to Thee,
Thou hast made us willing, thou hast made us free,
By Thy grand redemption, By Thy grace divine
We are on the Lord's side, Saviour, we are Thine

Verse 4
Fierce may be the conflict, Strong may be the foe, But the King's own army
None can overthrow. Round His standard ranging . Victory is secure.
For His truth unchanging. Makes the triumph sure.
Joyfully enlisting By Thy grace divine.
We ar on the Lord's side, Saviour, we are Thine

AMEN

Who is on the Lord's side Exodus 32:26

For His mercy and kindness so free

And my  refuge unfailing is He

That we all shall be gathered at last
In His kingdom above, by life's waters so pure
When this life with its trials is past

Happy Lord's Day of August 14th:

This hymn I am writing was song by my pastor and his wife, last week before communion commenced.

BEFORE THE THRONE OF GOD ABOVE:

Before the throne of God above
I have a strong, a perfect plea
A great High Priest Whose Name is "love"
Who ever lives and pleads for me
My name is graven on His hand
My name is written on His heart
I know that while in heav'n He stands
No tongue can bid me thence depart
No tonque can bid me thence depart.

When Satan tempts me to despair
And tells me of the guilt within
Upward I look and see Him There
Who made an end to all my sin
Because the sinless Saviour died
My sinful soul is counted free
For God, the Just, is satisfied
To look on HIm, and pardon me
To look on Him, and pardon me

Behold Him there! The risen Lamb
My perfect, spotless Righteousness
The great unchangeable I AM
The King of glory and of grace!
One with HImself, I cannot die
My soul is purchased by His blood
My life is hid with Christ on high
WIth Christ, my Saviour and My God
WITH CHRIST, MY SAVIOUR AND MY GOD

[tenderhearted]

O THOU IN WHOSE PRESENCE
Author: Joseph Swain
            Freeman Lewis

Verse 1:

O Thou, in whose presence my soul takes delight
On whom in affliction I call,
My comfort by day and my song in the night
My hope, my salvation, my all.

Verse 2:

Where dost Thou, dear Shepherd, resort with Thy sheep
To feed them in pastures of love?
Say, why in the valley of death should I weep,
Or alone in this wilderness rove?

Verse 3

O why should I wander, an alien from Thee,
Or cry in the desert for bread?
Thy foes will rejoice when my sorrows they see,
And smile at the tears I have shed.

Verse 4

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 the Lord

Verse 5

Dear Shepherd! I hear, and will follow Thy call;
I know the sweet sound of Thy voice;
Restore and defend me, for Thou art my all,
And in Thee I will ever rejoice.

This song was sung during the evening services today.
I believe it is fitting, not just for our own personal trials, but for those affected for those who are affected in the American Gulf Coast.
We Canadians Christians individually and as members of churches are praying.

I NEED JESUS
By George O.Webster
Charles H. Gabriel

CHORUS:

I NEED JESUS.....I NEED JESUS
[I need Jesus with me, I need Jesus always]

I NEED JESUS EVERY DAY
[every day]

NEED HIM IN THE SUNSHINE HOUR
NEED HIM WHEN THE STORM CLOUDS LOW
EVERY DAY ALONG MY WAY
YES I NEED JESUS

VERSE 1:

I need Jesus my need I now confess;
No friend like Him in times of deep distress
I need Jesus the need I gladly own
Tho some may bear their load alone
Yet I need Jesus

VERSE 2

I need Jesus I need a friend like Him
A friend to guide when paths of life are dim
I need Jesus when foes my soul assail
Alone I know I can but fail
So, I need Jesus

VERSE 3

I need Jesus, I need Him to the end
No one like Him, He is the sinner's Friend
I need Jesus, no other friend will do
So constant kind, so strong and true
Yes I need Jesus.

................

It is so true our need for Jesus for everything in our life, so true in trials, but if we can learn to depend and trust Jesus with the smallest things, so when the big trials comes our way. We can trust Jesus will be there always.
Need for Jesus in our lives will never end.
Isnt it great we can depend on HIm for all things, all the time. If we so let him.

God Bless you

CHRIST LIVETH IN ME
Author: Daniel W. Whittle
            James McGranahan

Chorus:
Christ liveth in me, Christ liveth in me
O what a salvation this
That Christ liveth in me.

Verse 1:
Once far from God and dead in sin, No light my heart could see,
But in God's Word and the light I found- Now Christ liveth in me.

Verse 2:
As rays of light from yonder sun, The flow'rs of earth set free,
So life and light and love came forth, From Christ living in me.

Verse 3:
As lives the flow'r within the see, As in the cone the tree,
So, praise the God of truth and grace, His Spirit dwelleth in me.

Verse 4:
With longing all my heart if filled, That like Him I may be,
As on the wondrous thought I dwell, That Christ liveth in me.

[tenderhearted]

 :DSTEPPING IN THE LIGHT
Eliza E Hewitt//William J Kirkpatrick

Chorus:
How beautiful to walk in the steps of the Saviour
Stepping in the Light
Stepping in the Light
How beautiful to walk in the steps of the Saviour
Led in paths of light

1. Trying to walk in the steps of the Saviour
Trying to follow our Saviour and King
Shaping our lives by His blessed example
Happy, how happy the songs that we bring

2. Pressing more closely to Him who is leading
When we are tempted to turn from the way
Trusting the arm taht is strong to defend us
Happy, how happy our praises each day

3. Walking in footsteps of gentle forbearance
Footsteps of Faithfulness, mercy and love
Looking to HIm for the grace freely promised
Happy, how happy our journey above

4. Trying to walk in the steps of the Saviour
Upward still upward we'll follow our Guide
When we shall see Him
The King in His beauty
Happy, how happy our place at His side
