2. Hymn: Living for Jesus

Hymn: Living for Jesus
Author: Thomas O. Chisholm (1866-1960)

1. Living for Jesus, a life that is true,
    Striving to please Him in all that I do;
    Yielding allegiance, glad-hearted and free,
    This is the pathway of blessing for me.

Refrein:
O Jesus, Lord and Savior, I give myself to Thee,
For Thou, in Thy atonement, didst give Thyself for me;
I own no other Master, my heart shall be Thy throne;
My life I give, henceforth to live, O Christ, for Thee alone.

2. Living for Jesus Who died in my place,
    Bearing on Calv’ry my sin and disgrace;
    Such love constrains me to answer His call,
    Follow His leading and give Him my all.

3. Living for Jesus, wherever I am,
    Doing each duty in His holy Name;
    Willing to suffer affliction and loss,
    Deeming each trial a part of my cross.

4. Living for Jesus through earth’s little while,
    My dearest treasure, the light of His smile;
    Seeking the lost ones He died to redeem,
    Bringing the weary to find rest in Him.

2. Hymn: Great Is Thy Faithfulness

Great Is Thy Faithfulness
Tune: FAITHFULNESS, by William M. Runyan

1. Great is thy faithfulness, O God my Father;
    There is no shadow of turning with thee;
    Thou changest not, thy compassions, they fail not;
    As thou hast been thou forever will be.

Refrain: 
Great is thy faithfulness! Great is thy faithfulness! 
Morning by morning new mercies I see; 
All I have needed thy hand hath provided; 
Great is thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!  

2. Summer and winter and springtime and harvest,
    Sun, moon and stars in their courses above
    Join with all nature in manifold witness
    To thy great faithfulness, mercy and love.

3. Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth
    Thy own dear presence to cheer and to guide;
    Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,
    Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!

9. Hymn: Trust In The Lord

Trust In The Lord

Author: Thomas O. Chisholm

1. Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
    This is God’s gracious command;
    In all your ways acknowledge Him,
    So shall you dwell in the land.

Refrain:  
Trust in the Lord, O troubled soul, 
Rest in the arms of His care; 
Whatever your lot, it mattereth not, 
For nothing can trouble you there; 
Trust in the Lord, O troubled soul, 
Nothing can trouble you there.

2. Trust in the Lord who ruleth all,
    Seeth all things as they are,
    Be it a birdling in its nest,
    Or yonder uttermost star.

3. Trust in the Lord and peaceful be,
    Fret not thy spirit in vain,
    What though the answer tarries long,
    Still shalt thou praise Him again.

4. Trust in the Lord—His eye will guide
    All thro’ your pathway ahead,
    He hath redeemed and He will keep,
    Trust Him and be not afraid.
