Temptations?

We Should Never Be
Discouraged,

Can We Find A Friend So Faithful
Who Will All Our Sorrows Share?
Jesus Knows Our Every Weakness,
Take It To The Lord In Prayer.

Are We Weak And Heavy Laden,
Cumbered With A Load Of Care?
Precious Saviour, Still Our Refuge,

In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

We Give Thee But Thine Own
Whatever The Gift May Be
All That We Have Is Thine Alone,
A Trust, O Lord, From Thee.

May We ‘Thy Bounties Thus
As Stewards True Receive,
And Gladly, As Thou Blessest Us,
To Thee Our First-Fruits Give.

O Hearts Are Bruised And Dead,
And Homes Are Bare And Cold;
And Lambs, For Whom The
Shepherd Bled,
Are Straying From The Fold.

To Comfort And To Bless,
To Find A Balm For Woe,
To Tend The Lone And Fatherless
Is Angels’ Work Below.

The Captive To Release,
To God The Lost To Bring,
To Teach The Way Of Life And Peace,
It Is A Christ-Like Thing.

And We Believe Thy Word,
Though Dim Our Faith May Be;
I Whatever For Thine We Do, O
Lord,
We Do…

Hear Now His Accents Tenderly Say
“Will You, My Children, Come?”

When I Shall Look On His Face,
Tongue Cannot Tell Of The Joy It
Will Be.

Ephesians_1-3. Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:

Heavenly Father I Stretch My Hand To Thee
There’s No Other Help That Is Known To Me
Thou Who Covered Us With Beauty Like Robe
With Thy Blessing O Lord, Now Put Me On.

Head Of The Church On Earth And Triumphant
Recreate Me With Thy Holy Spirit
Make Use Of My Thoughts, My Soul And Spirit
That I May Do The Work Of My Calling.

O God, Thou Creator Of All Mankind
O Let Me Find Thee, Seek Thee And Love Thee
To Love And Behave Well To All People
And To Resemble Thee In Miracle

Thou Fount Of Blessing Of Love And Of Joy
Make Me To Shine Like Sun In Thy Kingdom
And From This World, That I May Be For Thee

Shepherd Divine, Our Wants Relieve

James_5-16: Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

Prayer Is The Soul’s Sincere Desire
Uttered Or Unexpressed:
The Motion Of A Hidden Fire
That Trembles In The Breast

Prayer Is The Burden Of A Sigh;
The Falling Of A Tear,
The Upward Glancing Of An Eye,
When None But God Is Near.

Prayer Is The Simplest Form Of Speech,
That Infant Lips Can Try:
Prayer, The Sublimest Strains That Reach
The Majesty On High.

Prayer Is The Christian’s Vital Breath;
The Christian’s Native Air:
His Watchword At The Gates Of Death,
He Enters Heaven With Prayer.

The Saints In Prayer Appear As
One,
In Word, And Deed, And Mind;
While With The Father And The
Son,
Sweet Fellowship They Find.

O Thou By Whom We Come To
God,
The Life, The…

Proverbs_10-22: The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it

Behold Us With A Father’s Love;
While We Look Up With Trembling Fear.

Command Thy Blessing Jesus,
Lord,
May We Thy True Disciples Be;
Speak, To Each Heart, The
Mighty Word;
Say To The Weakest, Follow Me.

Command Thy Blessing, In This Hour,
Spirit Of Truth, And Fill This Place
With Humbling And With Healing Power:
With Quickening And Confirming Grace.
Amen!

Isaiah_44-3: For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty, and floods upon the dry ground: I will pour my spirit upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thine offspring

I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.

O Christ. In Thee My Soul Hath Found.
And Found In Thee Alone,
The Peace, The Joy I Sought So Long,
The Bliss Till Now Unknown.

Now None But Christ Can Satisfy,
None Other Name For Me.
There’s Love And Life And Lasting
Joy,
Lord Jesus Found In Thee.

I Sighed For Rest And Happiness,
I Yearned For Them, Not Thee;
But While I Passed My Saviour By
His Love Laid Hold On Me.

I Tried The Broken Cisterns, Lord,
But, Ah! The Waters Failed!
Even As I Stooped To Drink They Fled,
And Mocked Me As I Wailed.

The Pleasures Lost I Sadly Mounted
But Never Wept For Thee
Till Grace My Sightless Eyes Receive
Thy Loveliness To See.
Amen!

Romans_5-1: Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:

“There Shall Be Showers Of Blessing,”
Thou Hast Declared In Thy Word.

Oh, Graciously Hear Us,
Graciously Hear Us We Pray:

Us
Showers Of Blessing Today.

Oh! That The Showers Of Blessing
Now On Our Souls May Descend,
While At The Footstool Of Mercy
Pleading Thy Promise We Bend!

“There Shall Be Showers Of
Blessing,”
Promise That Never Can Fail;
Thou Wilt Regard Our Petition;
Surely Our Faith Will Prevail.

Showers Of Blessing, We Need Them,
Showers Of Blessing From Thee;
Showers Of Blessing, Oh, Grant Them,
Thine All The Glory Shall Be.
Amen!

Galatians_6-9: And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not

Are You Weary, Are You Heavy Hearted?
Tell It To Jesus, Tell It To Jesus
Are You Grieving Over Joys Departed?
Tell It To Jesus Alone.

Tell It To Jesus, Tell It To Jesus,
He Is A Friend That’s Well Known;
You Have No Other Such A Friend
Or Brother,
Tell It To Jesus Alone.

Do The Tears Flow Down Your Cheeks Unbidden?
Tell It To Jesus, Tell It To Jesus;
Have You Sins That To Men’s Eyes Are Hidden?
Tell It To Jesus Alone.

Do You Fear The Gathering Clouds Of Sorrow?
Tell It To Jesus, Tell It To Jesus;
Are You Anxious What Shall Be Tomorrow?
Tell It Jesus Alone.

Are You Troubled At The Thought Of Dying?
Tell It To Jest. Fell It To Jesus;
For…

John_14-6: Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me

I Am The Way, The Saviour Said
And I Would Follow On.
Content To Know That After Night,
Shall Break A Glorious Dawn.

I Am The Way, The Truth And The Life,
No Man Cometh Unto The Father But By Me,
I Am The Way, The Truth And The Life,
No Man Cometh Unto The Father But By Me.

“I Am The Truth,” Then Truth Shall Be
A Beacon Light To Guide,
My Bark Across The Stormy Sea
To Where Still Waters Glide.

“I Am The Life,” There Is No Death,
For Me To Fear, Nor Dread,
Since By His All Atoning Blood,
My Life To His Is Wed.
Amen!

Romans_12-1: I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service

Take Time To Be Holy, Speak Oft With Thy Lord
Abide In Him Always, And Feed On His Word
Make Friends Of God’s Children
Help Those Who Are Weak
For-Getting In Nothing His Blessing To Seek.

Take Time To Be Holy, The World Rushes On;
Spend Much Time In Secret With Jesus Alone –
By Looking To Jesus, Like Him Thou Shalt Be;
Thy Friends In Thy Conduct His Likeness Shall See.

Take Time To Be Holy, Let Him Be Thy Guide;
And Run Not Before Him, Whatever Betide;
In Joy Or In Sorrow Still Follow Thy Lord,
And, Looking To Jesus, Still Trust In His Word.

Take Time To Be Holy, Be Calm In Thy Soul;
