IMPORTANT NOTE: Try to know when you are singing the same part as the other vocalist and when you are singing a different part. Be stronger when your part is different and somewhat softer when you are in unison with the other part.

1. I come to the garden alone while the dew is still on the roses, and the voice I hear falling on my ear, the Son of God discloses.
Refrain:
And he walks with me, and he talks with me, and he tells me I am his own; and the joy we share as we tarry there, none other has ever known.
2. He speaks, and the sound of his voice is so sweet the birds hush their singing, and the melody that he gave to me within my heart is ringing. (Refrain)
3. I’d stay in the garden with him though the night around me be falling, but he bids me go; thru the voice of woe his voice to me is calling. (Refrain)

1 Spirit of God, descend upon my heart; wean it from earth through all its pulses move. Stoop to my weakness, mighty as thou art, and make me love thee as I ought to love.
2 I ask no dream, no prophet ecstasies, no sudden rending of the veil of clay, no angel visitant, no opening skies; but take the dimness of my soul away.
3 Hast thou not bid me love thee, God and King? All, all thine own, soul, heart and strength and mind. I see thy cross; there teach my heart to cling. O let me seek thee, and O let me find.
4 Teach me to feel that thou art always nigh; teach me the struggles of the soul to bear. To check the rising doubt, the rebel sigh, teach me the patience of unanswered prayer.
5 Teach me to love thee as thine angels love, one holy passion filling all my frame; 
the kindling of the heaven-descended Dove, my heart an altar, and thy love the flame. 

1 To God be the glory great things He has done So loved He the world that He gave us His Son who yielded His life an atonement for sin and opened the life-gate that all may go in.
REFRAIN:
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord; let the earth hear His voice.
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord; let the people rejoice.
Come to the Father through Jesus the Son. Give Him the glory; great things He has done.
2 O perfect redemption, the purchase of blood to every believer the promise of God. The vilest offender who truly believes that moment from Jesus a pardon receives. REFRAIN
3 Great things He has taught us, great things He has done and great our rejoicing through Jesus the Son. But purer, and higher, and greater will be our wonder, our worship, when Jesus we see. REFRAIN

He Touched Me (UMH 367)

1 Shackled by a heavy burden ‘Neath a load of guilt and shame; then the hand of Jesus touched me And now I am no longer the same

REFRAIN:
He touched me, oh, He touched me and oh, the joy that floods my soul. Something happened, and now I know. He touched me, and made me whole.

2 Since I’ve met this blessed Savior, since He’s cleansed and made me whole. Oh, I will never cease to praise Him (to praise Him). I’ll shout it while eternity rolls.  REFRAIN X2

Shine, Jesus, Shine

REFRAIN:
Shine, Jesus, shine; fill this land with the Father’s glory.  Blaze, Spirit, blaze; set our hearts on fire. Flow, river, flow, flood the nations with grace and mercy.  Send forth your word.  Lord, and let there be light.
1 Lord, the light of your love is shining in the midst of the darkness, shining.  Jesus, Light of the world, shine upon us set us free by the truth you now bring us. Shine on me, shine on me. (REFRAIN)
2 Lord, I come to your awesome presence. From the shadows into your radiance.
By the blood I may enter your brightness.  Search me, try me, consume all my darkness. Shine on me, shine on me (REFRAIN)
3 As we gaze on your kingly brightness so our faces display your likeness
Ever changing from glory to glory; mirrored here may our lives tell your story.  Shine on me, shine on me (REFRAIN)

Refrain:
There is a balm in Gilead to make the wounded whole; there is a balm in Gilead to heal the sin sick soul. (x2)
1. Sometimes I feel discouraged, and think my work’s in vain, but then the Holy Spirit revives my soul again. Refrain
2. Sometimes I feel discouraged, for Jesus is your friend. And if you look for knowledge, he’ll ne’er refuse to lend. Refrain
3. If you can’t preach like Peter, if you can’t pray like Paul, just tell the love of Jesus, and say He died for all. Refrain

There’s a sweet, sweet spirit in this place , and I that it’s the spirit of the Lord. There are sweet expressions on each face and I know that it’s the Spirit of the Lord.
Sweet Holy Spirit, sweet, heavenly dove. Stay right here with us filling us your love.
And, for those blessings, we lift our heart in praise. Without a doubt, we’ll know that we have been revived when we shall leave this place.
