H-1191 FROM MY SPIRIT WITHIN
Author & Composer: RK & George Bennard
Key: B flat

1
From my spirit within flows a fountain of life—
  The Triune God flowing in me;
God the Father’s the source, Christ the Son is the course,
  And the Spirit imparts life to me.
 	
Chorus
Lord, I treasure the sweet flow of life,
  And my soul-life at last I lay down;
O Lord, deepen the pure flow of life;
    At Your coming may life be my crown.

2
In the fresh, tender grass Jesus makes me lie down;
  He leads me by waters of rest;
No more struggle and strain; all self-effort is vain;
  In the flow I am perfectly blessed.

3
Jesus called me one day to the Holiest Place,
  To live in His presence divine;
Hallelujah, I’ve heard an encouraging word:
  “Abide—you’re a branch in the vine.”

LIFE FOREVER
Author & Composer: CM & JI
Key: C#m

1
Like the Hermon's dew
Came upon Zion's mount
There Jehovah commanded the blessing
Life forever, giv'n to those dwelling
Dwell in oneness and in harmony
Life, it is the way
Life's in Him that ends with building
'Tis the goal of God's economy!
Ne'er, I'll be distract’d
Other things are but a procedure
In the line of life Lord, I'll remain

12. Life Forever

LINE OF LIFE
Author & Composer: JM
Key: D

    Bm         A                   G
A life that's in the line of life
       Bm       A                      G
Is a life that eats the Tree of Life
    Bm                   A              G
Amidst the realm full of confusion
         Bm                     A         G
With teachings that'll cause division

D                 Em                       F#m-G-A
The life that swallows death's situation
D             Em                   Bm-A-D
Is Christ our life and our portion

2.
As ones who know God's intention
We daily eat, drink, Christ our portion
With praying spirit, touch the Word
Kill all the germs with Spirit's sword
May our heart be open, simple
That life may grow unto the full
  
3.
To faith we cleave and grow in life
Christ wrought in us, no room for strife
Grant us a private pray'r to grow
Confessing sins that life may flow
When each grows with the growth of God
We'll have real building; expressed God

Verse 1
Now we know on which line we should be 
To be our portion, destiny 
Decide to take this line of life must we 
The crown of life guarantee 

Forgetting the things 
Just enjoy the living springs 
Run with endurance the race 
Until we see Him face to face

We need Your all-sufficient grace 
Looking away, 
Unto Him

To enter through, the narrow gate, forgetting all strife 
And walk the way that leads to life 
Be a faithful one, Holding fast what you own 
Stay until you have fully grown 

We lost our soul-life 
We must win this long long fight 
Entanglements go away 
And do not be led astray

Chorus:
In the long run 
of this race 
We need Your all-sufficient grace 
Looking away, 
Unto Him 
Author and Perfecter of faith 

2nd Chorus:
We must take 
the line of life 
The tree of life is set before us 
Depend on Him 
Just eat Him 
Until we’re fully filled to the brim

All 
Fight the good fight 
Victry is ours 
Preserve our hearts, The reward is ahead us 
Finish this course, 
Hold on to faith, 
Oh! How we need your abounding grace

Who gives cheer to both God and man.

Where are you, where are you going?
And which line are you on right now?
The line of life is the right line
Just remain on the line of life
Chorus
Knowing and caring for nothing,
On the line of life remaining.
“What kind of man may dwell with God,
for His heart's desire, good pleasure?"
A man who’s in the line of life.
The line which is ordained by God,
Is for His eternal purpose.

We need to eat the tree of life,
To partake the hidden manna,
And to feast with the Lord Jesus,
By staying in the line of life

The Sunrising
Author & Composer: JP
Key: Db


1. We believers should follow the sunrising,
Follow the sunrising to be revived,
And to have a new beginning, 
A new beginning every morning:
Everyday we need a "sunrising"
And this is our revival.
We need to follow the sunrising 
Waiting for new beginning!

2. In the morning we enjoy Christ's shining, 
Receiving His healing and enlivening (Mal 4:2) 
If we love Him with our being, 
We'll be like the sun in its rising!(Jdg 5:31) 
Everyday we behold His shining, 
And we'll be just like Him.
We need to follow the sunrising Yearning for His appearing!

THY SMILING FACE
Composer and Author : SR & JP

When You desire the preeminence,
On earth, in heaven, only Thee is found,
Should my love still be divided 
When Thou urge me all to forsake?
*So all, today, I do forsake
Why shouldn’t I when Thou’st left all?
Just for me to gain.
I’ll gladly be nothing,
Just let me see Thy Face
Just let me see Thy smiling face.

On earth am sorrowed yet I have the Lord
Displeased should I be when Thou art with me? 
Heart's satisfied in Thy presence
All that's dark, in Thy smile there's light
*So now if all leave, who or what
Why should I be in sorrow when 
Thy good will is done?
What more should I search for
When there's help in Thy Face
When there's help in Thy smiling face.

I longed at first for ease and comfort
Love grew intense, to labor I then sought
Now I seek, not ease nor labor
Should I go, when my Lord saith "stay"?
*So if Thou said "suffer a bit"
Then I'll sit in Thy appointed place!
At Thy sign I'll go
I'll labor abundant
'Tis joyful with Thy face,
'Tis so sweet with Thy smiling Face.


Is it not so sweet to be trained today
In Your presence unseen yet intimate? 
Face to face, daily and private
Thou shall know us when  we meet Thee.

*So now, today redeem the time
To know, converse, behold Thy face 
Thy mirror we'll be
At Thy coming You’ll say
With Your sweet sweet smiling face,
"At last! Like Me, she matches Me."

I CHOOSE TO STAY
Composer & Author: JM
Key: C

Am                  F               G
If my pathway seems not clear
Am                              F           G
Then be my sight that leads to life
Am         F              C            G
If Lord I had Your presence dear,
Am                   F       G             Am
Then Lord my future would be bright

Am               F          C         G
How earnest Lord, I long to stay
Am                F       C             G
But Lord, its all by Your mercy

Chorus

Am             F          C         G
I choose to stay, remain in life
Am                  F               C        G
Save me from death, turn me to life
Am                F             C            G
Chase all the shades of night away
Am                   F                C         G
Chase all dark thoughts of sin away
Am            F                 C                G
If through Your word I gain more life
Am              F            G         Am
Then let me come be full of life

2 
If the church life is a test
Will all things dear Lord be detest?
Will I still treasure things seems dear?
Yet lost Your presence Lord so dear?
If pride, ambition I am lost
Then Lord exposed me at all cost

3 
If following You pays great price
What can I give except my life?
Let me dear Lord a sacrifice!
Oh, live a self-denying life!
A life that cares for nothing else
But Christ my all, my universe!

3. I Choose to Stay

REMAINING IN CHRIST
Composer & Author: CVB
Key: F

1
This narrow path now leading us, 
Path to Life - ‘tis glorious choice for us. 
Side by side constricted are we, 
Therefore not be disheartened. 


Chorus:
Remain in Christ to stay in Life;
Abiding in Him as the Vine, 
And our self must lay all aside
In walking the pathway of Life. 

2. 
If one day storms come in our way, 
Will ourselves be shaken, fall away?
Our only hope now lives in us;
Trusting in His flow we stay. 

3. 
While we yearn and waiting on Him, 
Must seize today by enjoying Him;
Letting Christ make home within us,
Our Portion, Life and Glory.


2. Remaining in Christ

TREADING THE PATHWAYS TO LIFE
Composer & Author: FTTMa 66th-69th Batch
Key: A

1 
There are days blue skies can’t be found,
When dark and gloomy clouds are all around.
Do we treasure God’s life within,
Or do we struggle on with right and wrong?
No food, no drink, no home, no rest, no peace
If we let thorns our oneness pierce;
If one day stormy winds come our way,
Will we then be shaken, fall away?

Chorus:
Highways to life, the path our feet must tread;
By enjoying Christ, we’re safely led.
Check God in living!
In Him remain, just enjoy Him!
Therefore disheartened, we dare not to be;
Firm in heart, now, we
Stay in this line continually;
He’ll give Himself faithfully.

2
Life that swallows death now has come;
‘Tis Christ as our eternal portion;
True Vine, Bread of life, all we need,
Life’s Author, even life itself indeed.
This Tree of Life, to us a promise giv’n,
Closed to us by the fall of man;
Christ us redeemed, re-op’ning the way;
Then, rising, life conquered death for aye.
3
Daily eat and drink, breathe in Christ,
Our thirst is quenched, our hunger satisfied;
With our spirit pray, touch the Word,
By pray’r in private, touch the living Lord.
Confess, be dealt with for the genuine growth;
His life in us may freely flow.
Have more of Christ wrought into our being
Till others receive life’s watering.

4
Life results in building, we see,
Fulfilling God’s divine economy.
God Triune is our oneness real;
One corp’rate Body’s what He wants to see;
Each one grows with the growth of God each day;
We have real building, God display;
The New Jerusalem we will be,
Our glorious eternal destiny
