I Will Sing Unto the Lord

I will sing unto the Lord as long as I live
I will sing praise to my God while I have my being
My meditation of Him shall be sweet
I will be glad, I will be glad in the Lord

Bless thou the Lord, O my soul
Praise ye the Lord
Bless thou the Lord, O my soul
Praise ye the Lord
Bless thou the Lord, O my soul
Praise ye the Lord
Bless thou the Lord, O my soul
Praise ye the Lord

Day by Day

Day by day, and with each passing moment,
Strength I find to meet my trials here;
Trusting in my Father’s wise bestowment,
I’ve no cause for worry or for fear.
He, whose heart is kind beyond all measure,
Gives unto each day what He deems best,
Lovingly its part of pain and pleasure,
Mingling toil with peace and rest.

Every day the Lord Himself is near me,
With a special mercy for each hour;
All my cares He fain would bear and cheer me,
He whose name is Counsellor and Pow’r.
The protection of His child and treasure
Is a charge that on Himself He laid;
“As thy days, thy strength shall be in measure,”
This the pledge to me He made.

Help me then, in every tribulation,
So to trust Thy promises, O Lord,
That I lose not faith’s sweet consolation,
Offered me within Thy holy Word.
Help me, Lord, when toil and trouble meeting,
E’er to take, as from a father’s hand,
One by one, the days, the moments fleeting,
Till with Christ the Lord I stand.

Jesus Keep Me Near The Cross

Jesus, keep me near the cross,
There a precious fountain—
Free to all, a healing stream—
Flows from Calv’ry’s mountain.

　In the cross, in the cross,
　Be my glory ever;
　Till my raptured soul shall find
　Rest beyond the river.

Near the cross, a trembling soul,
Love and Mercy found me;
There the bright and morning star
Sheds its beams around me.

Near the cross! O Lamb of God,
Bring its scenes before me;
Help me walk from day to day,
With its shadows o’er me.

Near the cross I’ll watch and wait
Hoping, trusting ever,
Till I reach the golden strand,
Just beyond the river.

Hatikvah התקווה

Hebrew	Transliteration	Translation
כָּל עוֹד בַּלֵּבָב פְּנִימָה	kol 'od ballevav penimah	As long as the Jewish spirit is yearning deep in the heart,
נֶפֶשׁ יְהוּדִי הוֹמִיָּה	nefesh yehudi homiyah	With eyes turned toward the East, looking toward Zion,
וּלְפַאֲתֵי מִזְרָח קָדִימָה	ulefa'atei mizrakh kadimah	Then our hope - the two-thousand-year-old hope - will not be lost:
עַיִן לְצִיּוֹן צוֹפיָּה	ayin letsiyon tsofiyah
עוֹד לֹא אָבְדָה תִּקְוָתֵנוּ	od lo' 'avdah tikvatenu	To be a free people in our land,
הַתִּקְוָה בָּת שְׁנוֹת אַלְפַּיִם	hatikvah bat shnot 'alpayim
לִהְיוֹת עַם חָפְשִׁי בְּאַרְצֵנוּ	lihyot 'am khofshi be'artsenu	The land of Zion and Jerusalem.
אֶרֶץ צִיּוֹן וִירוּשָׁלַיִם	erets tsiyon virushalayim

Hatikvah, literally “the hope,” is Israel’s national anthem.

One Thing Have I Desired

One thing have I desierd of the Lord
That will I seek after

That I may dwell in the house of the Lord
All the day of my life

To behold the beauty, the beauty of the Lord
To inquire in His temple, the temple of the Lord.
