Hymn #99 --- A Shelter in the Time of Storm


1) The Lord's our Rock, in Him we hide, 

A shelter in the time of storm;

Secure whatever ill betide, 

A shelter in the time of storm.


Chorus:

O Jesus is a Rock in a weary land,

A weary land, a weary land;

O Jesus is a Rock in a weary land, 

A shelter in the time of storm.


2) A shade by day, defense by night, 

A shelter in the time of storm;

No fears alarm, no foes affright,

A shelter in the time of storm.

(Chorus)


3) The raging storms may round us beat, 

A shelter in the time of storm;

We'll never leave our safe retreat,

A shelter in the time of storm.

(Chorus)


4) O Rock divine, O Refuge dear, 

A shelter in the time of storm;

Be Thou our helper ever near, 

A shelter in the time of storm.

(Chorus)

Hymn

Hymn #534 --- Send the Light


1) There's a call comes ringing o'er the restless wave,

"Send the light! Send the light"

There are souls to rescue, there are souls to save,

Send the light! Send the light!


Chorus:

Send the light, the blessed gospel light;

Let it shine from shore to shore!

Send the light the blessed gospel light;

Let it shine forevermore!


2) We have heard the Macedonian call today,

"Send the light! Send the light!"

And a golden off'ring at the cross we lay,

Send the light! Send the light!

(Chorus)


3) Let us pray that grace may ev'rywhere abound,

"Send the light! Send the light!" 

And a Christ-like spirit ev'rywhere be found,

Send the light! Send the light!

(Chorus)


Closing Hymn

Closing Hymn #550 --- Channels Only 


1) How I praise Thee, precious Savior,

That Thy love laid hold of me;

Thou hast saved and cleansed and filled me

That I might Thy channel be.


Chorus:

Channels only, blessèd Master,

But with all Thy wondrous pow'r

Flowing through us, Thou canst use us

Every day and every hour.


2) Emptied that Thou shouldest fill me,

A clean vessel in Thy hand,

With no pow'r but as Thou givest

Graciously with each command.

(Chorus)


3) Jesus, fill now with Thy Spirit

Hearts that full surrender know;

That the streams of living water

From our inner man may flow.

(Chorus)
