3. When the Saints Go Marching In New Orleans Jazz Traditional, ca. 1900 Oh, when the saints go marching in Oh, when the saints go marching in Lord, how I want to be In that number When the saints go marching in And when the sun refuse to shine Oh When the new world is revealed And when the sun refuse to shine Oh When the new world is revealed Lord, how I want to be Lord, how I want to be in that number In that number When the new world is revealed When the sun refuse to shine 4. O Worship The King Robert Grant, 1833 Oh, worship the King, all-glorious above, Oh, gratefully sing of his pow'r and his love Our shield and defender, the Ancient of Days Pavilioned in splendor and girded with praise O tell of his might, O sing of his grace Whose robe is the light, whose canopy space? His chariots of wrath the deep thunderclouds form And dark is his path on the wings of the storm The earth with its store of wonders untold Almighty, your pow'r has founded of old Has 'stablished it fast by a changeless decree And round it has cast, like a mantle, the sea Your bountiful care what tongue can recite? It breathes in the air; it shines in the light it streams from the hills; it descends to the plain and sweetly distils in the dew and the rain Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail in you do we trust, nor find you to fail your mercies how tender, how firm to the end our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend! Oh, when the trumpet sounds its call Oh, when the trumpet sounds its call Lord, how I want to be in that number When the trumpet sounds its call O measureless Might! Ineffable Love! While angels delight to hymn you above The humbler creation, though feeble their lays With true adoration shall lisp to your praise
5. This Land Is Your Land Woody Guthrie, 1940 This land is your land, this land is my land From California to the New York Island From the Redwood Forest to the Gulf Stream waters This land was made for you and me As I went walking that ribbon of highway And saw above me that endless skyway, And saw below me the golden valley, I said This land was made for you and me I roamed and rambled and followed my footsteps To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts And all around me, a voice was sounding This land was made for you and me Was a high wall there that tried to stop me A sign was painted said: Private Property But on the back side it didn't say nothing This land was made for you and me When the sun come shining, then I was strolling In wheat fields waving and dust clouds rolling; The voice was sounding as the fog was lifting: This land was made for you and me One bright sunny morning in the shadow of the steeple By the Relief Office I saw my people As they stood hungry, I stood there wondering if This land was made for you and me
6. Guide Me O Thou Great Jehovah William Williams, 1791 Guide me, O Thou great Jehovah Pilgrim through this barren land I am weak, but Thou art mighty Hold me with Thy powerful hand Bread of heaven, bread of heaven Feed me till I want no more Feed me till I want no more Open now the crystal fountain Where the living waters flow Let the river of salvation, follow all the desert through Strong Deliverer, strong Deliverer Be Thou still my Strength and Shield Be Thou still my Strength and Shield When I tread the verge of Jordan Bid my anxious fears subside Death of death and hell's destruction Land me safe on Canaan's side Songs of praises, songs of praises I will ever give to Thee I will ever give to Thee
7. A Mighty Fortress Is Our God Martin Luther, 1529 A mighty fortress is our God, a bulwark never failing Our helper he, amid the flood of mortal ills prevailing For still our ancient foe doth seek to work us woe His craft and power are great and armed with cruel hate On earth is not his equal Did we in our own strength confide our striving would be losing Were not the right man on our side, the man of God s own choosing Dost ask who that may be? Christ Jesus, it is he Lord Sabaoth his name, from age to age the same And he must win the battle And though this world with devils filled, should threaten to undo us We will not fear, for God hath willed his truth to triumph through us The Prince of Darkness grim, we tremble not for him His rage we can endure, for lo, his doom is sure One little word shall fell him That word above all earthly powers, no thanks to them, abideth The Spirit and the gifts are ours through him who with us sideth Let goods and kindred go, this mortal life also The body they may kill; God s truth abideth still His kingdom is forever 8. In The Sweet By and By Sanford Bennett, 1868 In the sweet by and by We shall meet on that beautiful shore In the sweet by and by We shall meet on that beautiful shore There s a land that is fairer than day, and by faith we can see it afar For the Father waits over the way, to prepare us a dwelling place there We shall sing on that beautiful shore, the melodious songs of the blessed And our spirits shall sorrow no more, not a sigh for the blessing of rest
9. Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing R obert Robinson, 1758 Come Thou Fount of every blessing, tune my heart to sing Thy grace Streams of mercy, never ceasing, call for songs of loudest praise Teach me some melodious sonnet, sung by flaming tongues above Praise the Mount! I m fixed upon it, mount of God s unchanging love Here I raise my Ebenezer, hither by Thy help I m come And I hope by Thy good pleasure, safely to arrive at home Jesus sought me when a stranger, wandering from the fold of God He to rescue me from danger, interposed his precious blood O to grace how great a debtor daily I m constrained to be! Let that grace now, like a fetter, bind my wand ring heart to Thee Prone to wander, Lord I feel it, Prone to leave the God I love Here s my heart, O take and seal it, seal it for Thy courts above 10. Love Divine, All Loves Excelling (BEECHER) Charles Wesley, 1747 Love divine, all loves excelling, Joy of heav'n to earth come down Fix in us Thy humble dwelling; all thy faithful mercies crown Jesus, Thou art all compassion, pure, unbounded love Thou art Visit us with Thy salvation; enter ev'ry trembling heart Breathe, O breathe Thy loving Spirit, into ev'ry troubled breast! Let us all in Thee inherit, let us find the promised rest Take away our bent to sinning; Alpha and Omega be End of faith, as its beginning, set our hearts at liberty Come, Almighty to deliver, let us all Thy grace receives Suddenly return, and never, never more Thy temples leave Thee we would be always blessing, serve Thee as Thy host above Pray, and praise Thee without ceasing, glory in Thy perfect love Finish, then, Thy new creation; pure and spotless let us be Let us see Thy great salvation, perfectly restored in Thee Changed from glory into glory, till in heav'n we take our place Till we cast our crowns before Thee, lost in wonder, love, and praise
11. Softly and Tenderly Will L. Thompson, 1880 Softly and tenderly Jesus is calling, calling for you and for me See, on the portals he's waiting and watching, watching for you and for me Come home, come home Ye who are weary come home Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling Calling, O sinner, come home! Why should we tarry when Jesus is pleading, pleading for you and for me? Why should we linger and heed not his mercies, mercies for you and for me? O for the wonderful love he has promised, promised for you and for me Though we have sinned, he has mercy and pardon, pardon for you and for me 12. Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee L. van Beethoven, 1824/van Dyke, 1907 Joyful, joyful, we adore Thee, God of glory, Lord of love Hearts unfold like flowers before Thee, hail Thee as the sun above Melt the clouds of sin and sadness; drive the dark of doubt away Giver of immortal gladness, fill us with the light of day! All Thy works with joy surround Thee, earth and heaven reflect Thy rays Stars and angels sing around Thee, center of unbroken praise Field and forest, vale and mountain, flowery meadow, flashing sea Chanting bird and flowing fountain call us to rejoice in Thee Mortals, join the happy chorus, which the morning stars began Love divine is reigning o'er us, brother love binds man to man. Ever singing, march we onward, victors in the midst of strife Joyful music leads us Sunward in the triumph song of life
13. Blessed Assurance, Jesus is Mine! Fanny Jane Crosby, 1873 Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine! O what a foretaste of glory divine! Heir of salvation, purchase of God, Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood This is my story, this is my song, praising my Savior all the day long This is my story, this is my song, praising my Savior all the day long Perfect submission, perfect delight, visions of rapture now burst on my sight Angels descending, bring from above, echoes of mercy, whispers of love Perfect submission, all is at rest, I in my Savior am happy and bless d Watching and waiting, looking above, filled with his goodness, lost in his love 14. It Is Well With My Soul Horatio Spafford, 1873 When peace like a river, attendeth my way When sorrows like sea billows roll Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say It is well, it is well, with my soul It is well, (it is well), with my soul (with my soul) It is well, it is well, with my soul Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come Let this bless d assurance control That Christ has regarded my helpless estate And hath shed His own blood for my soul My sin, oh, the bliss of this glorious thought My sin, not in part but the whole Is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul! And Lord, haste the day when my faith shall be sight The clouds be rolled back as a scroll The trump shall resound, and the Lord shall descend Even so, it is well, with my soul
15. Be Thou My Vision Text transl. from 8 th Century Old Irish; melody: Irish Slane Be Thou my vision, O Lord of my heart Nought be all else to me, save that Thou Art Thou my best thought, by day or by night Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light Riches I heed not, nor vain, empty praise Thou mine inheritance, now and always Thou and Thou only, first in my heart Great God of heaven, my Treasure Thou art Be Thou my wisdom, and Thou my true word I ever with thee and Thou with me Lord Heart of my own heart whatever befall Still be my vision, O Ruler of all 16. Nearer My God to Thee! Sarah Flower Edwards, 1841 Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee! E'en though it be a cross that raiseth me Still all my song shall be nearer, my God, to Thee Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee! Though like the wanderer, the sun gone down Darkness be over me, my rest a stone Yet in my dreams I'd be nearer, my God, to Thee There let the way appear steps unto heav'n All that Thou sendest me in mercy giv'n Angels to beckon me nearer, my God, to Thee Or if on joyful wing, cleaving the sky Sun, moon, and stars forgot, upwards I fly Still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to Thee
17. Amazing Grace John Newton, 1779 Amazing grace, how sweet the sound That saved a wretch like me! I once was lost, but now am found, was blind but now I see Twas grace that taught my heart to fear And grace my fears relieved How precious did that grace appear the hour I first believed! Through many dangers toils and snares, I have already come Tis grace that brought me safe thus far And grace will bring me home The Lord has promised good to me His word my hope secures He will my shield and portion be as long as life endures When we ve been there ten thousand years Bright shining as the sun We ve no less days to sing God s praise Than when we d first begun
