English Hymn I-J

I’ve Cast Heavy Burdens Down


I’ve cast my heavy burdens down
on Canaan’s happy shore,
I’m living where
the healing waters flow;
I’ll wander in the wilderness
of doubt and sin no more;
I’m living where
the healing waters flow.


Chorus
Living on the shore,
I’m living on the shore,
I’m living where
the healing waters flow;
Living on the shore,
I’m living on the shore,
I’m living where
the healing waters flow.


With Israel’s trusting children
I’m rejoicing on my way,
I’m living where
the healing waters flow;
The cloudy fiery pillar
is my guiding light today;
I’m living where
the healing waters flow.


My hung’ring soul is satisfied
with manna from above,
I’m living where
the healing waters flow;
No more I thirst, the rock I’ve found,
that fount of endless love;
I’m living where
the healing waters flow.


I’m singing “Hallelujah,”
safely anchored in my soul,
I’m living where
the healing waters flow;
I’m resting on His promises;
the blood has made me whole;
I’m living where
the healing waters flow.

 



1.I’ve found a Friend, oh, such a Friend!
He loved me ere I knew Him;
He drew me with the cords of love,
And thus He bound me to Him.
And round my heart still closely twine
Those ties which naught can sever,
For I am His, and He is mine,
Forever and forever.


2.I’ve found a Friend, oh, such a Friend!
He bled, He died to save me;
And not alone the gift of life,
But His own self He gave me.
Naught that I have my own I call,
I hold it for the Giver;
My heart, my strength, my life, my all,
Are His, and His forever.


3.I’ve found a Friend; oh, such a Friend!
All power to Him is given;
To guard me on my upward course,
And bring me safe to heaven.
The eternal glories gleam afar,
To nerve my faint endeavor;
So now to watch, to work, to war,
And then to rest forever.


4.I’ve found a Friend; oh, such a Friend!
So kind, and true, and tender,
So wise a counselor and guide,
So mighty a defender.
From Him, who loveth me so well,
What power my soul can sever?
Shall life or death, or earth, or hell?
No; I am His forever.

 


1. I’ve got peace like a river,
I’ve got peace like a river,
I’ve got peace like a river in my soul.
I’ve got peace like a river,
I’ve got peace like a river,
I’ve got peace like a river in my soul.

2. I’ve got joy like a river,
I’ve got joy like a river,
I’ve got joy like a river in my soul.
I’ve got joy like a river,
I’ve got joy like a river,
I’ve got joy like a river in my soul.

3. I’ve got love like a river,
I’ve got love like a river,
I’ve got love like a river in my soul.
I’ve got love like a river,
I’ve got love like a river,
I’ve got love like a river in my soul
