Damnation befalls not those who are in Christ, Damnation befalls not those who are in Christ, and who pursue not the flesh but the spirit.

I am a poor wayfaring stranger A trav'ling through this world of woe.
But there's no sickness, toil nor danger In that bright world to which I go.
I know dark clouds will gather o'’er me I know my way is rough and steep Yet beauteous fields lie just before me And lilies grow where angels sleep.
I'm going there to see my mother I'm going there no more to roam.
I'm just a-going over Jordan.
I'm just a-going over home.
I am a poor wayfaring stranger A trav'ling through this world of woe.
But there's no sickness, toil nor danger In that bright world to which I go.
I'm going there to see my father I'm going there no more to roam I'm just a-going over Jordan I'm just a-going over home.
over home.
Goin'’ home, I'’m goin'’ home.
Home.
Beneath Thy shield I am protected from the raging storms of all my enemies.
Let Satan storm, let the foe rage, Jesus will stand by me!
Though there now be thunder and lightning, though sin and Hell spread terror, Jesus will protect me.
For the law of the spirit, which gives life in Christ Jesus, has liberated me from the law of sin and death.
Precious Lord, take my hand, Lead me on, help me stand.
I am tired, I am weak, I am worn.
Through the storm, through the night, Lead me on, Lord, toward the light.
Take my hand, precious Lord, and lead me h Precious Lord, You're the One That I build my life on.
You're my rock; You're my hope.
You are my song.
You picked me up and made me strong When my way, when it was wrong.
Here's my hand, precious Lord, now lead me When my way draws drear, precious Lord, li When my life, when it'’s almost, almost gon Hear my cry, hear my call, help me stand l Take my hand, precious Lord, lead me home, Take my hand, precious Lord, and lead me h Despite the old dragon, despite the jaws of death, despite the fear of death!
Rage, O world, and rear up, I shall stand here and sing in confident tranquillity!
I respect God's might; earth and abyss will be silenced, however much they now demur.
But ye are not of the flesh but of the spirit, so strangely does God dwell in you.
But he who has not the spirit of Christ is not His.
Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and a house divided against a house falleth.
(And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one Neither said any of them that ought of the Which they possessed was their own; Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and a house divided against a house falleth.
(And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one Neither said any of them that ought of the Which they possessed was their own; Let us therefore follow after the things w the things which make for peace, and the things wherewith one may edify ano But they had all things common.
Away with all riches, thou art my delight, Jesus, my desire.
Away with you, vain honours, I shall not give ear to you, do not enter my mind!
Misery, distress, affliction, shame and de though I must suffer much, shall not part me from Jesus.
When Christ is in you, the body is dead to sin, but the spirit is life for the sake of righteousness.
but the spirit is life for the sake of righteousness.
for the sake of righteousness.
Sure on this shining night Of starmade shadows round, Kindness must watch for me This side the ground.
The late year lies down the north.
All is healed, all is health.
High summer holds the earth.
Hearts are whole.
Sure on this shining night I weep for wonder Wand'ring far alone Of shadows on the stars.
Farewell, O you who have chosen the world; I do not love you.
Farewell, O sins, stay far behind me, never come to light again!
Farewell, O pride and pomp!
Life of wickedness, may you be wreathed in night!
Now the spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead lives in you; the same who raised Jesus from the dead shall give life to your mortal bodies because the spirit lives in you.
It's been a long dark night, And I've been waiting for the morning.
It's been a long hard fight, But I see a brand new day a- dawning.
I've been looking for the sunshine '‘Cause I ain't seen it in so long.
Ev'rything's gonna work out fine.
Ev'rything's gonna be alright, it's gonna I can see the light of a clear blue mornin I can see the light of a brand new day.
I can see the light of a clear blue mornin Ev'rything's gonna be alright, it's gonna I can see the light, see the light Brand new day.
Clear blue morning, clear blue morning...
Morning, morning... Light of a clear blue, light of a clear bl Morning light, morning light... See the light, see the light..
I can see the light of a clear blue mornin Clear blue morning...
I can see the light, Clear blue morning...
I can see the light, blue, blue morning blue.
Morning blue.
Depart hence, you spirits of sadness, for the Lord of my joy, for Jesus enters.
To those whom God loves, even their sorrow must be sweetened.
Though I endure mockery and scorn on earth in the midst of my suffering Thou art still my Jesus, my joy.
Alleluia, alleluia... Amen
