Lift Your Light A Little Higher by Civilla D. Martin

Lift your light a little higher, there's a life to save,
Let it shine a little brighter, o'er the stormy wave;
Some poor soul for help is crying,
In the sea of sin is dying,
Lift your light a little higher o'er the wave.

Lift your light a little higher
Keep it bright;
Someone lost and sinking,
Looks to you for light;
You a life may save, from a hopeless grave,
Just lift your light up higher, o'er the wave.

Lift your light a little higher, do not hide its ray,
You may be a beacon light a long the rocky way;
By a little care and labor,
You may save a friend or neighbor,
Lift your light a little higher o'er the wave.

Lift your light a little higher
Keep it bright;
Someone lost and sinking,
Looks to you for light;
You a life may save, from a hopeless grave,
Just lift your light up higher, o'er the wave.

Let the light from God's own presence shine into your heart,
Then to those who live in darkness light you may impart;
Burning "oil of joy and gladness,"
You may help dispel life's sadness,
Lift your light a little higher o'er the wave.

Lift your light a little higher
Keep it bright;
Someone lost and sinking,
Looks to you for light;
You a life may save, from a hopeless grave,
Just lift your light up higher, o'er the wave.

Kept Through Faith by Civilla D. Martin

Tho' I falter, His arm will hold me;
I can rest on His strength and grace;
Tho' the darkness of night enfold me,
Soon I know I shall see His face.

Kept thro' faith by His mighty pow'r,
He to shield me is ever nigh;
Gives me grace for each need and hour,
O now happy, how blest am I!

"Tho' an host should encamp against me,"
Why, O why should I have a fear?
Lost in sin, Jesus sought and found me,
Now to keep He is ever near."

Kept thro' faith by His mighty pow'r,
He to shield me is ever nigh;
Gives me grace for each need and hour,
O now happy, how blest am I!

Jesus knows all about the pathway
I must travel from day to day,
When on earth as a "Man of sorrows,"
He walked over the same hard way.

Kept thro' faith by His mighty pow'r,
He to shield me is ever nigh;
Gives me grace for each need and hour,
O now happy, how blest am I!

God Will Take Care Of You by Civilla D. Martin

Be not dismayed whate'er 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.

Hear The Call For Reapers by Civilla D. Martin

Hear the call for reapers as it comes from ev'ry land,
Are you ready Christian to obey your Lord's command,
Sheaves are still ungathered,
Just waiting for the worker,
Go forth and with the reapers lend a hand.

Many now are idle whom the Lord could use today,
Knowing not how well the blessed Master will repay;
Months and years are wasted,
The souls of men are dying,
Arouse you then, and bear the sheaves away.

Time is swiftly passing, soon the master will be here,
And the end of toiling very quickly draweth near,
Day and night, O reaper,
Go gather sheaves for Jesus,
Be faithful till in glory He appears.

The harvest time is come and God is calling now for reapers;
Who shall gather in the golden grain;
Awake, O sleeper become a reaper,
The call is sounding over hill and plain.

The harvest time is come and God is calling now for reapers,
Who shall gather in the golden grain;
Awake, O sleeper, become a reaper,
The call for reapers now is sounding over hill and plain.

Amen."

Acts 1:8: "But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth."
