I Believe

Ervin Drake - Al Stillman - Jimmy Shirl - Irvin Graham

© Gentleman Jim Music, ASCAP

I believe for every drop of rain that falls a flower grows
I believe that somewhere in the darkest night a candle glows
I believe for everyone who goes astray
Someone will come to show the way
I believe I believe

I believe above the storm the smallest prayer will still be heard
I believe that someone in the great somewhere hears every word
Everytime I hear a newborn baby cry
Or touch a leaf or see the sky
Then I know why I believe

I believe above the storm the smallest prayer will still be heard
I believe that someone in the great somewhere hears every word
Everytime I hear a newborn baby cry
Or touch a leaf or see the sky
Then I know why I believe

Onward Christian Soldiers

Sabine Gould - Arthur Sullivan

© Victor Gospel Music, BMI

Onward Christian soldiers
Marching as to war
With the cross of Jesus
Going on before

Christ the royal master
Leads against the foe
Forward into battle
See his banners go

Onward Christian soldiers
Marching as to war
With the cross of Jesus
Going on before

Like a might army
Moves the church of god
Brothers we are treading
Where the saints have trod

We are not divided
All one body we

One in hope and doctrine
One in charity

Onward Christian soldiers
Marching as to war
With the cross of Jesus
Going on before

Onward Then ye people
Join our happy throng
Blend with ours your voices
In the triumph song
Glory laud and honor
Unto Christ the king
This through countless ages
Men and angels sing

Onward Christian soldiers
Marching as to war
With the cross of Jesus
Going on before
Amen

Goodnight sweet Jesus
Goodnight goodnight

Goodnight sweet Jesus
Guard us in sleep
Our souls and bodies
In thy love keep

Waking or sleeping
Keep us in sight
Dear gentle Saviour
Goodnight goodnight

Goodnight dear Jesus
Goodnight goodnight

Goodnight sweet Jesus
Pray that each day
Of our lives mortal
Thus pass away

Thy love o'er watching
Guiding our right
Dear gentle Saviour
Goodnight goodnight

Goodnight dear Jesus
Goodnight goodnight

Act Of Contrition

Perry Como - Joseph Leahy

© Spinlan Music, ASCAP

O my God I am heartily sorry
For having offended Thee
And I detest all my sins
Because I dread the loss of heaven
And the pains of Hell
But most of all because I have offended Thee my God
Who art all good and deserving of all my love
I firmly resolve with the help of thy grace

To confess my sin to do penance
And to amend my life
Amen

Nearer My God To Thee

Noell Mason

© Robbins Music, ASCAP

Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer to Thee
Even 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'll be
Nearer My God to Thee
Nearer My God to Thee
Nearer to Thee

There let the way appear
Steps unto Heaven
All that Thou sendest me
In mercy given

Angels to beckon me
Nearer My God to Thee
Nearer My God to Thee
Nearer to Thee

Abide With Me

Henry Lyte - William Monk

© Virtuoso Music, ASCAP

Abide with me Fast falls the eventide
The darkness deepens Lord with me abide
When other helpers fail and comforts flee
Help of the helpless oh abide with me

Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day
Earth's joys grow dim its glories pass away
Change and decay in all around I see
O thou who changest not abide with me

I need thy presence ev'ry passing hour
What but thy grace can foil the tempter's pow'r
Who like thyself my guide and stay can be
Through cloud and sunshine Lord abide with me

The Lord's Prayer

Albert Mallotte - Arnold Strals

© Deveras Music, BMI

Our Father which art in heaven
Hallowed be thy name
Thy kingdom come
Thy will be done
On earth as it is in heaven
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our debts
As we forgive our debtors
And lead us not into temptation

But deliver us from evil
For thine is the kingdom
And the power and the glory forever
Amen

Bless This House

Mitchell Ayres

© Boosey And Hawkes Music, ASCAP

Bless this house o Lord we pray
Make it safe by night and day

Bless these walls so firm and stout
Keeping want and trouble out

Bless the roof and chimneys tall
Let thy peace lie overall

Bless this door that it may prove
Ever open
To joy and love

Bless these windows shining bright

Letting in God's Heavenly light
Bless the hearth ablazing there
With smoke ascending like a prayer

Bless the people here within
Keep them pure and free from sin

Bless us all that we may be
Fit O Lord to dwell with thee

Bless us all that one day we may dwell
O Lord With Thee
