Through My Savior
Verse Three
Now in the morning of shadow waning,
Like when the light of morning filled a tomb,
Grant us forgiveness, both giving, gaining;
Fill us with light: Dispel avenging gloom.
Once in a garden the blood was dropping;
Once on a cross the voice of mercy said:
“Oh, my Father, forgive my brother;
I forgive him with the blood I shed.”
Verse Four
Through thine Anointed we seek forgiveness,
Grasping thy mercy, casting off our sin,
Through our election of his atonement:
Touching Perfection, cleansing us within.
Though opposition may feign to hinder,
Like thine Anointed we begin to be.
Oh, my Father, I now remember
My Redeemer gave his life for me.
Through my Savior I come to thee.

‘Tis Sweet to Sing
Verse One
‘Tis sweet to sing the matchless love
Of Him who left his home above
And came to earth---oh, wondrous plan---
To suffer, bleed, and die for man!
Verse Four
For Jesus died on Calvary,
That all thru him might ransomed be.
Then sing hosannas to his name;
Let heav’n and earth his love proclaim.
Jesus of Nazareth
Verse One
Jesus of Nazareth,
Savior and King!
Triumphant over death,
Life thou didst bring,
Leaving thy Father’s throne,
On earth to live,
Thy work to do alone,
Thy life to give.
Verse Two
While of this broken bread
Humbly we eat,
Our thoughts to thee are led
In rev’rence sweet.
Bruised, broken, torn for us
On Calvary’s hill---
Thy suff’ring borne for us
Lives with us still.
We’ll Sing All Hail
Verse Three
He seized the keys of death and hell
And bruised the serpent’s head;
He bid the prison doors unfold,
The grave yield up her dead.
