April 7th, Hymn: 57
MY HOPE IS BUILT ON NOTHING LESS
Verse 1
My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus’ blood and righteousness;
I dare not trust the sweetest frame
But wholly lean on Jesus name.
On Christ the solid rock I stand
All other ground is sinking sound
All other ground is sinking sound
Verse 2
When darkness seems to veil His face
I rest on His unchanging grace;
In every high and stormy gale,
My anchor holds within the veil.
Verse 3
His oath, His covenant, and blood,
Support me in the whelming flood;
When all my soul gives way,
He then is all my hope and stay.
Verse 4
When He shall come with trumpet sound,
Oh, may I then in Him be found;
Dressed in His righteousness alone,
Faultless to stand before the throne.

ONWARD, CHRISTIAN SOLDIERS
Verse 1
Onward, Christian soldiers!
Marching as to war,
Looking unto Jesus
Who is gone before;
Christ, the Royal Master,
Leads against the foe;
Forward into battle,
See His banners go.
Onward, Christian soldiers!
Marching as to war,
Looking unto Jesus
Who is gone before;
Verse 2
At the name of Jesus
Satan’s host doth flee;
On then, Christian soldiers
On to victory!
Hell’s foundations quiver
At the shout of praise:
Brothers, lift your voices,
Loud your anthems raise.
Verse 3
Like a mighty army
Moves the church of God:
Brothers, we are trading
Where the saints have trod.
We are not divided,
All one body we
One in hope and doctrine,
One in charity.
Verse 4
Crowns and thrones may perish,
Kingdoms rise and wane;
But the church of Jesus
Constant will remain:
Gate of hell can never
‘Gainst the church prevail,
We have Christ’s own promise
And that cannot fail.
Verse 5
Onward then, ye people,
Join our happy throng;
Blend with our your voices
In the triumph song;
“Glory, praise and honour,
This,
through countless ages,
Men and angels sing.

O
WORSHIP THE KING
Verse 1
O
worship the King,
All
glorious above,
And
gratefully sing
His
power and His love:
Our
Shield and Defender,
The
Ancient of Days,
Pavilioned
in splendor,
And
girded with praise.
Verse 2
O tell
of His might,
And
sing of His grace,
Whose
robe is the light,
Whose
canopy space.
His
chariots of wrath,
The
deep thunderclouds form,
And
dark is His path
On the
wings of the storm.
Verse 3
Thy
bountiful care,
What
tongue can recite?
It
breathes in the air;
It
shines in the light.
It
streams from the hills;
It
descends to the plain,
And
sweetly distills
In the
dew and the rain.
Verse 4
Frail
children of dust,
And
feeble as frail,
In Thee
do we trust,
Nor
find Thee to fail.
Thy
mercies how tender!
How
firm to the end!
Our
Maker, Defender,
Redeemer, and Friend!
Verse 5
O measureless might!
Ineffable Love!
While Angels delight
To hymn Thee above,
The humbler creation,
Though feeble their lays,
With true adoration
Shall lisp to Thy praise.
April 28th, Hymn: 53
JESUS LOVES ME THIS I KNOW
Verse 1
Jesus loves me this I know
For the Bible tells me so
Little ones to Him belong
They are weak, but He is strong
Yes, Jesus love me
Yes, Jesus love me
Yes, Jesus love me
The Bible tells me so
Verse 2
Jesus loves me He who died
Heaven’s gate to open wide
He will wash away my sin
Let his little child come in
Verse 3
Jesus loves me loves me still
Tho’ I’m very weak and ill
From His shinning throne on high
Comes to watch me where I lie
Verse 4
Jesus loves me He will stay
Close beside me all the way
If I love Him when I die
He will take me home on high
