Subject: Can You Help Me Find Some Hymns?
From: wysiwyg
Date: 09 Apr 03 - 01:48 PM

I know we usually make a separate thread for each request-- my problem is that I am looking for quite a few. (I recently got some "new" tapes of miscellaneous stuff, some of which I will work into our Saturday night service repertoire.)

Under nromal circumstances I would search Mudcat, Google, and all my bookmarks to dig these up myself. Unfortunately, my computer is pretty sick, and I only have a tab key to get around with.... try it sometime and you will see how long it can take to look, much less find, even one item. If it ain't in the Cyberhymnal, chances are I won't find it. And I am working from copies of copies of copies on what I am hearing, so I can't just transcribe these.... even if my word processor was working! :~)

So... I'm looking for one or more people to buddy up with, to do some looking and posting. I'll post one request at a time and see if any of y'all can help. (If you change the subject line of your post when you find one, it will help make them easier to search later here at Mudcat.) Links to MIDI's, although I can't play them right now, also appreciated-- I can ask another band member to work on those.


First Request: It's a driving, medium-paced waltz, and it starts out: "No mortal tongue can ever tell...."

Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

~Susan

I can't play MP3s either.... Mmario, you can listen to the tape when you're here this weekend and see if it's the same one.

Sorcha, I didn't get a PDF on that link, but what I did see there and in the others, warn't it....

THANKS! These songs are.... itchy! I just GOTTA do 'em!

Took a quick look through old hymnals and southern gospel promotional songbooks, since the Sunshine Boys had JD Sumner and he was invovled in all that.... zip. Can you try a search with Abernathy and the song title? I also looked at some of my bookmarks.... zip.

Here's another one. The verse is long; the chorus goes like this:

Far, far behind me,
Far far behind me,
I've crossed the Red Sea xxx xxx xxx,
And left the world behind me.

Go here: http://purchase.hymns.net/lyrics/H0438.txt

That's the one in my post just above... I can't get the text to highlight or save or anything! I think "No Mortal Tongue" might be in there too-- it is the right denomination for the tape I was lent.

FAR, FAR BEHIND ME
Hymn 438


1. I've turned my back upon the world
    With all its idle pleasures,
    And set my heart on better things,
    On higher, holier treasures;
    No more its glitter and its glare,
    And vanity shall blind me;
    I've crossed the separating line,
    And left the world behind me.


    Chorus:
         Far, far behind me!
         Far, far behind me!
         I've crossed the separating line,
         And left the world behind me.


2. I've left the old sad life of sin,
    Its follies all forsaken;
    My standing place is now in Christ,
    His holy vows I've taken;
    Beneath the standard of the cross
    The world henceforth shall find me;
    I've passed in Christ from death to life,
    And left the world behind me.


    Chorus:
         Far, far behind me!
         Far, far behind me!
         I've passed in Christ from death to life,
         And left the world behind me.


3. My soul shall ne'er return again
    Back to its former station
    For here alone is perfect peace,
    And rest from condemnation;
    I've made exchange of masters now,
    The vows of glory bind me,
    And once for all I've left the world,
    Yes, left the world behind me.


    Chorus:
         Far, far behind me!
         Far, far behind me!
         And once for all I've left the world,
         Yes, left the world behind me.


4. My choice is made forevermore,
    I want no other Savior;
    I ask no purer happiness
    Than His sweet love and favor;
    My heart is fixed on Jesus Christ,
    No more the world shall blind me;
    I've crossed the Red Sea of His death,
    And left the world behind me.


    Chorus:
         Far, far behind me!
         Far, far behind me!
         I've crossed the Red Sea of His death,
         And left the world behind me.

No mortal tongue can e'er describe
Hymn 473


1. No mortal tongue can e'er describe
    The freedom of the soul,
    When passed beyond all earthly bribe
    To God's complete control.
    All things are his, yes, life, and death,
    Things present or to come;
    In Christ he draws in peace each breath,
    In Christ he finds his home.


2. When such as we the King can choose,
    To share with Him His throne,
    'Tis passing strange that we refuse
    To be our Lord's alone.
    O never speak of sacrifice!
    A privilege untold
    Is to be His at any price,
    In Calv'ry's hosts enrolled.


3. Arise! the holy bargain strike-
    The fragment for the whole-
    All men and all events alike
    Must serve the ransomed soul.
    All things are yours when you are His,
    And He and you are one;
    A boundless life in Him there is,
    Whence doubt and fear are gone.

If you have a good choir, Diadem as sung by the Welsh people is absolutely magnificient. Of course anything they sing is.

Catholics threw away all their beautiful hymns..so maybe someone would be interested in recycling them. May is coming..how about Hail Holy Queen Enthroned Above...if you really wanted to get equimenical..probably everyone's favorite..Oh Mary we crown thee with blossoms today...Holy God we Praise thy name...I know you know a lot of the African-American spirituals...Balm in Giliad? In honor of the new freedom ringing throughout the world..how about Oh Freedom..

Mmario--

Here's the list of the ones I most want now, and they are all at that site above but I can't nab them-- the page does not fully load and I can't copy them when they do display. If they are posted here (please change the subject line...) I can get them into songsheet form and learn them by ear.... so, if you're game, you know what we will do with these. Heck, pick the one you want me to teach this weekend! :~) Maybe two!

All for Jesus! All for Jesus! (has more verses than I have seen elsewhere)
Glory Be to God
I Am the Lord's
My Life My Love I Give to Thee (AKA I'll Live for Him, again this is one with added verses)
Thy Life Was Giv'n for Me (AKA I Gave My Life For Thee)

Thanks!

Hymn 444
      

1. All for Jesus! All for Jesus!
    All my being's ransomed pow'rs;
    All my thoughts and words and doings,
    All my days and all my hours.
    All for Jesus! All for Jesus!
    All my days and all my hours.
    All for Jesus! All for Jesus!
    All my days and all my hours.


2. Let my hands perform His bidding;
    Let my feet run in His ways;

    Let my lips speak forth His praise.
    All for Jesus! All for Jesus!
    Let my lips speak forth His praise.
    All for Jesus! All for Jesus!
    Let my lips speak forth His praise.


3. Worldlings prize their gems of beauty,
    Cling to gilded toys of dust;
    Boast of wealth, and fame, and pleasure;
    Only Jesus will I trust.
    All for Jesus! All for Jesus!
    Only Jesus will I trust.
    All for Jesus! All for Jesus!

4. Since mine eyes were fixed on Jesus,
    I've lost sight of all beside-
    So enchained my spirit's vision,
    Looking at the Crucified.
    All for Jesus! All for Jesus!
    Looking at the Crucified.
    All for Jesus! All for Jesus!
    Looking at the Crucified.


5. Oh, what wonder! how amazing!
    Jesus. glorious King of kings,
    Deigns to call me His beloved,
    Lets me rest beneath His wings.
    All for Jesus! All for Jesus!
    Resting now beneath His wings.
    All for Jesus! All for Jesus!
    Resting now beneath His wings.

Glory be to God
Hymn #483


1. Buried with Christ, and raised with Him too;
    What is there left for me to do?
    Simply to cease from struggling and strife,
    Simply to walk in newness of life.
    Glory be to God!

   
2. Risen with Christ, my glorious Head,
    Holiness now the pathway I tread,
    Beautiful thought, while walking therein:
    He that is dead is freed from sin.
    Glory be to God!
   
   
3. Living with Christ, who dieth no more,
    Following Christ, who goeth before;
    I am from bondage utterly freed,
    Reckoning self as dead indeed.
    Glory be to God!

   
4. Living for Christ, my members I yield,
    Servants to God, for evermore sealed,
    Not under law, I'm now under grace,
    Sin is dethroned, and Christ takes its place.
    Glory be to God!

   
5. Growing in Christ; no more shall be named
    Things of which now I'm truly ashamed,
    Fruit unto holiness will I bear,
    Life evermore, the end I shall share.
    Glory be to God!

I am the Lord's, O joy beyond expression
Hymn 433


1. I am the Lord's! O joy beyond expression,
    O sweet response to voice of love Divine;
    Faith's joyous "Yes" to the assuring whisper,
    "Fear not! I have redeemed thee; thou art Mine."


2. I am the Lord's! It is the glad confession
    Wherewith the Bride recalls the happy day,
    When love's "I will" accepted Him forever,
    "The Lord's," to love, to honor and obey.


3. I am the Lord's! Yet teach me all it meaneth,
    All it involves of love and loyalty,
    Of holy service, absolute surrender,
    And unreserved obedience unto Thee.


4. I am the Lord's! Yes; body, soul, and spirit,
    O seal them irrecoverably Thine;
    As Thou, Beloved, in Thy grace and fulness
    Forever and forevermore art mine.

    Thy blood, O Lord, was shed,
    That I might ransomed be,
    And quickened from the dead;
    Thy Life was giv'n for me, for me;

    In ueariness and woe,
    That through eternity
    Thy glory I might know;
    Long years were spent for me, for me;
    Have I spent one for Thee?


3. Thy Father's home of light,
    Thy rainbow-circled throne,
    Were left for earthly night,
    For wanderings sad and lone;
    Yea, all was left for me, for me;
    Have I left aught for Thee?


4. Thou, Lord, hast borne for me
    More than my tongue can tell
    Of bitterest agony,
    To rescue me from hell;
    Thou suff'redst all for me, for me;
    What have I borne for Thee?


5. And Thou hast brought to me
    Down from Thy home above
    Salvation full and free,
    Thy pardon and Thy love;
    Great gifts, great gifts Thou broughtest me;
    What have I brought to Thee?


6. Oh, let my life be given,
    My years for Thee be spent;
    World-fetters all be riven,
    And joy with suff'ring blent;
    Thou gav'st Thyself for me, for me,
    I give myself to Thee.

WYSI: I know you wanted a particular version (from a particular site) but here's the version of "All For Jesus" as used for the closing hymn in "Stainer's Crucifixion"

Nigel

All for Jesus—all for Jesus,
This our song shall ever be;
For we have no hope, nor Saviour,
If we have not hope in Thee.

All for Jesus—Thou wilt give us -
Strength to serve Thee, hour by hour;
None can move us from Thy presence,
While we trust Thy love and power.

All for Jesus—at Thine altar -
Thou wilt give us sweet content;
There, dear Lord, we shall receive Thee
In the solemn sacrament.

All for Jesus—Thou best loved us;
All for Jesus-Thou best died;
All for Jesus—Thou art with us;
All for Jesus Crucified.

All for Jesus—all for Jesus—
This the Church's song must be;
Till, at last, her sons are gathered
One in love and one in Thee
