Evangelist's Hymnal

 

compiled by Harry Mills of Harrow

 

Our brother was exercised in about 1995 to produce a new collection of gospel hymns. The Lord saw fit to call him home shortly afterwards before the collection could be published. The hymns listed here are the selections that he made. Chapter Two has many of these in music script form. Our brother chose the tunes and the type-setting was almost complete. If any are interested they may be able to view them at Chapter Two. An initial attempt was made to edit some of the archaic expressions while retaining addressing the Lord using 'Thou'. Users will notice a number of places where no conclusion was reached with the editing.

 

Section 1 A blessing for you — Christ the Saviour of sinners came into the world to save
Section 2 Come every soul by sin oppressed, there’s mercy with the Lord — Great is Thy faithfulness, O God my Father!
Section 3 Hail to the Lord’s Anointed! Great David’s greater Son — I have a Friend whose faithful love is more than all the world to me.
Section 4 I have a Saviour: He’s pleading in glory — Jesus died for sinners, on the cross He bled, to redeem from hell my guilty soul.
Section 5 Jesus, lover of my soul, let me to Thy bosom fly — My faith looks up to Thee, Thou Lamb of Calvary
Section 6 My God I have found the thrice blessèd ground — Oh, what a gift the Father gave when He bestowed His Son
Section 7 Oh, what a glorious truth is this—Jesus died! — Seek you first, not earthly pleasure, ... but the love that knows no measure
Section 8 Shall hymns of grateful love through heaven’s high arches ring — The wanderer no more will roam
Section 9 The whole world was lost in the darkness of sin: The Light of the world is Jesus — ’Twas not for our great love to Thee that Thou didst send Thy Son
Section 10 Wandering far from God I found myself one weary day — “Yet there is room!”

Wilt thou yield to loves

With harps and with vials

Wounded for me
