1 When I shall reach the more excellent glory,
And all my trials are passed,
I shall be like Him, O wonderful story!
I shall be like Him at last.

Chorus:
I shall be like Him, I shall be like Him,
And in His beauty shall sine,
I shall be like Him, wondrously like Him,
Jesus, my Saviour divine.

2 We shall not wait till the glorious dawning
Breaks on the vision so fair,
Now we may welcome the heavenly morning,
Now we His image may bear. (Chorus)

3 More and more like Him, repeat the blest story,
Over and over again,
Changed by His Spirit from glory to glory,
I shall be satisfied then. (Chorus)

1 As longs the deer for cooling streams
in parched and barren ways,
so longs my soul, O God, for Thee
and Thy refreshing grace.

2 For Thee, my God, the living God,
my thirsty soul doth pine;
O when shall I behold Thy face,
Thou majesty divine?

3 Why, restless, why cast down, my soul?
Hope still, and thou shalt sing
the praise of Him who is thy God,
thy health’s eternal spring.

4 To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
the God whom we adore,
be glory as it was, is now,
and shall be evermore.

1 As down the stream of time I glide,
The greatest tho’t that comes to me;
Is not of honors, wealth, nor pride,
But what about eternity.

Chorus:
Eternity, (Eternity),
Eternity, (Eternity);
O, soul what of eternity?
Will you, at home, in heaven be thro’out a long eternity?

2 When, in the glory of the night,
The brilliant moon and stars I see;
I rise above them in my flight
And think about eternity. [Chorus]

3 And when I hear the church bells toll
Their sad and mournful melody,
This is my tho’t, another soul
Has reached the great eternity. [Chorus]

4 I want to live each fleeting day
As tho’ it were my last to be;
Then when from earth I pass away,
With God I’ll spend eternity.

1 O what shall I do to be saved?
The gath’ring storm I behold,
Exposed to the wrath of my God;
Is there no sheltering fold,
Is there no sheltering fold?

Refrain:
I am the door, by Me if any man enter in,
He shall be saved, he shall be saved;
I am the door, by Me if any man enter in,
He shall be saved, he shall be saved.

2 O what shall I do to be saved?
No light, no hope can I see,
No help in myself can I find;
Is there no mercy for me,
Is there no mercy for me? [Refrain]

3 O what shall I do to be saved?
So vile, so burdened with sin,
O how to the fold may I come,
How may I enter therein,
How may I enter therein? [Refrain]

4 I enter the wide open door,
In Christ I now have believed;
I’m cleansed from my sins by His blood;
I trust, and now I am saved,
I trust, and now I am saved! [Refrain]

10By the grace God has given me, I laid a foundation as a wise builder, and someone else is building on it. But each one should build with care. 11For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. 12If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay or straw, 13their work will be shown for what it is, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality of each person’s work. 14If what has been built survives, the builder will receive a reward. 15If it is burned up, the builder will suffer loss but yet will be saved—even though only as one escaping through the flames. 1 Corinthians 3:10-15 NIV

1. Building, daily building, while the moments fly,
We are ever building life work for on high!
Character we’re building, thoughts and actions free
Make for us a building for eternity.

Refrain
We are building day by day, while the moments pass away,
We are building, ever building;
We are building day by day, while the moments pass away,
We are building for eternity.

2. Choosing, as we labor, what we wish to take,
Oh let us be careful for the Master’s sake!
He will help our labor, He will strength bestow;
Let us choose for Jesus all we use below. [Refrain]

3. Hay or wood or stubble, we must never use,
Offers of the tempter we must e’er refuse.
Sinful thoughts and actions will not stand the test;
Seeking God’s approval, we must use the best. [Refrain]

4. May the Lord approve us! ’Tis our earnest prayer.
Oh, to have our building tall, and strong and fair!
Oh, to live for Jesus! Truly every hour,
Building, praying, trusting in His mighty power! [Refrain]

1 Help Thou my unbelief Oh, God,
Increase my faith I pray,
Oh, let me know that Jesus’ blood,
Has washed my sins away.

Chorus:
Help Thou, (Help Thou),
Help Thou, (Help Thou),
Help Thou my unbelief,
Lord, I believe I do believe,
Help Thou my unbelief.

2 Thou are the true and only God,
The blessed Christ, the Son
He came to earth and shed His blood,
To save us ev’ry one. [Chorus]

3 The Holy Spirit, Thou has sent,
To sanctify my soul,
To show me that I must repent, if I would be made whole. [Chorus]
