The Fire Song (capo 3, G) Oh the judgment day is coming what an awful day it will be Christ forever is the refuge Rock of ages cleft for me. but oh my loving brother when the world’s on fire don’t you want God’s shoulder for to be your pillow At the sounding of the trumpet at the dawning of the day Worldly pleasures and their treasures shall forever pass away but oh my loving brother when the world’s on fire don’t you want God’s shoulder for to be your pillow Poor lost sinners will be crying for that home they never will see but the ransomed will be singing Rock of Ages cleft for me but oh my loving brother when the world’s on fire don’t you want God’s shoulder for to be your pillow

I Would Not Be Denied When pangs of death seized on my soul unto the Lord I cried Till Jesus came and made me whole I would not be denied I would not be denied I would not be denied Till Jesus came and made me whole I would not be denied As Jacob in the days of old I wrestled with the Lord And instant, with a courage bold I stood upon his word I would not be denied I would not be denied Till Jesus came and made me whole I would not be denied Old Satan said the Lord was gone And would not hear my prayer But praise the Lord the work is done And Christ the Lord is here I would not be denied I would not be denied Till Jesus came and made me whole I would not be denied

Beautiful Isle Somewhere the sun is shining somewhere the songbirds dwell hush then thy sad repining God lives and all is well Somewhere the day is longer somewhere the task is done somewhere the heart is stronger somewhere the victory is won Somewhere the load is lifted Close by an open gate somewhere the clouds are rifted somewhere the angels wait somewhere, somewhere beautiful isle of somewhere somewhere, somewhere beautiful isle of somewhere

This World Is Not My Home This world is not my home, I’m just passing through My treasures are laid up, somewhere beyond the blue The angels beckon me, from heaven’s open door and I can’t feel at home in this world any more Oh Lord, you know, I have no friend like you If Heaven’s not my home, then Lord what will I do? The angels beckon me, from heaven’s open door and I can’t feel at home in this world any more They’re all expecting me, And that’s one thing I know I fixed it up with Jesus, forty years ago I know he’ll take me through, though I am weak and poor and I can’t feel at home in this world any more I have a loving mother, o’er in glory land I don’t expect to stop, until I shake her hand She’s waiting there for me, in heaven’s open door And I can’t feel at home, in this world anymore Just o’er in glory land, we’ll live eternally The saints on every hand are shouting victory their songs of sweetest praise, drift back from heaven’s shore and I can’t feel at home in this world anymore.

Heavenly Sunlight Walking in sunlight, all of my journey Over the mountains and through the deep vale Jesus has said “I’ll never forsake thee” Promise divine, that never can fail. Heavenly sunlight, heavenly sunlight flooding my soul with glories divine Shadows around me, shadows above me Never conceal my Savior and Guide He is the light in Him is no darkness Ever I’m walking close to his side. Heavenly sunlight, heavenly sunlight flooding my soul with glories divine In the bright sunlight, ever rejoicing Pressing my way to mansions above Singing his praises, gladly I’m walking Walking in sunlight, sunlight of love. Heavenly sunlight, heavenly sunlight flooding my soul with glories divine so Halleluja, I am rejoicing, Singing his praises, Jesus is mine.

Is He Satisfied Do you ever search your heart as you watch the day depart Is there something way down deep you try to hide If this day should be end and eternity begin when the book is open wide would the Lord be satisfied? Is he satisfied, is he satisfied is he satisfied with me have I done my best have I stood the test Is he satisfied with me Feeble is the lamp of fame by which man inscribes his name on the walls of time for other men to see Though he boasts of wealth and power none will help him in that hour when the angels hear his plea is he satisfied with me? Is he satisfied, is he satisfied is he satisfied with me have I done my best have I stood the test Is he satisfied with me

I'll Live On 04:06
I’ll Live On Tis a sweet and glorious thought that comes to me I’ll live on, I’ll live on Jesus saved my soul from death and now I’m free I’ll live on, I’ll live on I’ll live on, I’ll live on In eternity, I’ll live on I’ll live on, I’ll live on In eternity, I’ll live on and on When my body’s slumbering in the cold, cold clay I’ll live on, I’ll live on There to sleep in Jesus till the judgment day I’ll live on, I’ll live on I’ll live on, I’ll live on In eternity, I’ll live on I’ll live on, I’ll live on In eternity, I’ll live on and on When the worlds on fire and darkness veils the sun I’ll live on, I’ll live on Men will cry and to the rocks and mountains run I’ll live on, I’ll live on I’ll live on, I’ll live on In eternity, I’ll live on I’ll live on, I’ll live on In eternity, I’ll live on and on

Oh Beautiful Home O beautiful home, O mansion of rest where all the redeemed are happy and blest Someday I shall join that glorified throng up there we shall sing a wonderful song O beautiful home, where cometh no night A wonderful place, so lovely and bright it’s gates are of pearl, it’s streets of pure gold Up there I shall live and never grow old O beautiful home awaiting me there My savior has gone that place to prepare He’s coming again to gather his own Then heaven shall be my beautiful home O beautiful home in heaven so fair we’ll meet our dear friends and loved ones up there

God Will Take Care of You Be not dismayed whatever betide God will take care of you Beneath his wings of love abide God will take care of you God will take care of you through every day, O’er all the way He will take care of you God will take care of you. Through days of toil when heart doth fail God will take care of you When dangers fierce your path assail God will take care of you God will take care of you through every day, O’er all the way He will take care of you God will take care of you All you may need He will provide God will take care of you Nothing you ask will be denied God will take care of you God will take care of you through every day, O’er all the way He will take care of you God will take care of you No matter what may be the test God will take care of you Lean, weary one, upon his breast God will take care of you God will take care of you through every day, O’er all the way He will take care of you God will take care of you

One of These Days one of these days our lord shall come for the redeemed ones who've been won coming from glory like he went away all the redeemed in Christ shall rise meeting the savior in the skies shouting his praises round the throne for aye chorus one of these days I'm going home to be with Jesus round the throne where no sickness pain or death there is known it will be joy beyond compare when all God's saints are gathered there it will be heaven there in my new home now is the time dear sinner friend you should trust God and turn from sin then you will Praise him for his matchless love you will find peace along the way living for Jesus every day laying up treasures in that home above some of these days it won't be long Jesus will say come join the throng up in heaven where cometh no more night it will be joy in that fair land when we all join in that great band singing his praises there where all's a-right
