HE ABIDES

I’m rejoicing night and day,

As I walk the pilgrim way,
For the hand of God in all
my life I see,
And the reason of my bliss,
Yes, the secret all is this:
That the Comforter abides
with me.
 CHORUS
He abides,
He abides,
Hallelujah, He abides with
me!
I’m rejoicing night and day,
As I walk the narrow way,
For the Comforter abides
with me.
 Once my heart was full of
sin,
Once I had no peace within,
Till I heard how Jesus died
upon the tree;
Then I fell down at His feet,
And there came a peace so
sweet,
Now the Comforter abides
with me.
 CHORUS
He abides,
He abides,
Hallelujah, He abides with
me!
I’m rejoicing night and day,
As I walk the narrow way,
For the Comforter abides
with me.
 He is with me everywhere,
And He knows my every
care,
I’m as happy as the bird and
just as free,
For the Spirit has control,
Jesus satisfies my soul,
Since the Comforter abides
with me!
 CHORUS
He abides,
He abides,
Hallelujah, He abides with
me!
I’m rejoicing night and day,
As I walk the narrow way,
For the Comforter abides
with me.
 There’s no thirsting for the
things
Of the world, they’ve taken
wings;
Long ago I gave them up, and
instantly
All my night was turned to day,
All my burdens rolled away,
Now the Comforter abides with
me!
 CHORUS
He abides,
He abides,
Hallelujah, He abides with
me!
I’m rejoicing night and day,
As I walk the narrow way,
For the Comforter abides
with me.
 THERE IS POWER IN BLOOD
Would you be free from
your burden of sin?
There’s power in the blood,
power in the blood;
Would you o’er evil a
victory win?
There’s wonderful power in
the blood.
 CHORUS
There is power, power,
wonder-working power
In the blood of the Lamb.
There is power, power,
wonder-working power
In the precious blood of
the Lamb.

your passion and pride?
There’s power in the
blood, power in the
blood;
Come for a cleansing to
Calvary’s tide,
There’s wonderful power
in the blood.
 CHORUS
There is power, power,
wonder-working power
In the blood of the Lamb.
There is power, power,
wonder-working power
In the precious blood of
the Lamb.
 Would you be whiter
much whiter than snow?
There’s power in the
blood, power in the
blood;
Sin’s stains are lost in its
life-giving flow,
There’s wonderful power
in the blood.

blood, power in the
blood;
Would you live daily, His
praises to sing?
There’s wonderful power
in the blood.
 CHORUS
There is power, power,
wonder-working power
In the blood of the Lamb,
There is power, power,
wonder-working power
In the precious blood of
the Lamb,
 LEAVE IT THERE
If the world from you
withhold of its
silver and its gold,
and you have to get along
with meager fare.
Just remember in His Word,
how He feeds the little bird;
Take your burden to the
Lord and leave it there.
 CHORUS
Leave it there, leave it
there,
Take your burden to the
Lord and leave it there;
If you trust and never
doubt, He will surely bring
you out,
Take your burden to the
Lord and leave it there.
 If your body suffers pain
and your health you can’t
regain,
And your soul is almost
sinking in despair.
Jesus knows the pain your
feel, He can save and He
can heal;
Take your burden to the
Lord and leave it there.
 CHORUS
Leave it there, leave it
there,
Take your burden to the
Lord and leave it there;
If you trust and never
doubt, He will surely bring
you out,
Take your burden to the
Lord and leave it there.
When your enemies assail
and your heart begins to
fail,
Don’t forget that God in
heaven answers prayer;
He will make a way for you
and will lead you safely
through;
Take your burden to the
Lord and leave it there.
 CHORUS
Leave it there, leave it
there,
Take your burden to the
Lord and leave it there;
If you trust and never
doubt, He will surely bring
you out,
Take your burden to the
Lord and leave it there.
 When your youthful days
are gone and old age is
stealing on,
And your body bends
beneath the weight of care;
He will never leave you
then, He’ll go with you to
the end;
Take your burden to the
Lord and leave it there.
 CHORUS
Leave it there, leave it
there,
Take your burden to the
Lord and leave it there;
If you trust and never
doubt, He will surely bring
you out,
Take your burden to the
Lord and leave it there.
THE HOMECOMING WEEK
Upon our journey here below we
meet with pain and loss;
Sometimes there is a crown of
thorns, sometimes the heavy
cross,
The dreary road to Calvary, the
bitter goad and sting,
But what’s inside those gates of
pearl will be worth everything.
 CHORUS
When we’re inside the gates of pearl,
We’ll learn a lot of things,
We’ll have a harp that’s made of
gold,
Perhaps a thousand strings;
We’ll sing and shout and dance
about,
The Lamb will dry our tears;
We’ll have a grand homecoming
week,
The first ten thousand years.
The shadows now begin to fall,
the time is drawing nigh,
When Christ our Lord shall
come again like lightning from
the sky,
And while we wait and suffer
here, praise God, we’ll shout
and sing,
For one glimpse through those
gates of pearl will be worth
everything.
 CHORUS
When we’re inside the gates of pearl,
We’ll learn a lot of things,
We’ll have a harp that’s made of
gold,
Perhaps a thousand strings;
We’ll sing and shout and dance
about,
The Lamb will dry our tears;
We’ll have a grand homecoming
week,
The first ten thousand years.
 The precious blood of God’s
own Son has saved and
sanctified
A wondrous people for His name
and they are called the bride.
Though here neglected and
despised, one day the Lord will
bring
His chosen one within the
gates, and that’s worth
everything.
 CHORUS
When we’re inside the gates of pearl,
We’ll learn a lot of things,
We’ll have a harp that’s made of
gold,
Perhaps a thousand strings;
We’ll sing and shout and dance
about,
The Lamb will dry our tears;
We’ll have a grand homecoming
week,
The first ten thousand years.
